Ti Series Installation and Operation Instructions

Trinity

2.0 BOILER LOCATION
In all cases, the Trinity Ti must be installed indoors in a dry location where the ambient temperature must be maintained above
freezing and below 100
F [38
C]. Gas components must be protected from dripping, spraying water, or rain during operation and
servicing.
Consider the proximity of system piping, gas and electrical supply, condensate disposal drain, and proximity to vent
termination when determining the best appliance location.
Water or flood damaged components must be replaced immediately with new factory-approved
components as failure to do so may result in fire, serious injury, or death.
Appliance Area Ventilation Air Openings
If appliance area clearances are less then the recommended clearances specified in Table 2-1, the appliance area must be
ventilated. Each ventilation air opening must meet the minimum requirements of 1 in
2
per 1000 Btu/hr, but not less then 100in
2
.
The lower ventilation opening must be located within 6” of the floor while the upper opening must be located 6” from the top of
the space.
Closet Installations
For closet installations, it is necessary to provide two ventilation air openings, each providing a minimum area equal to 1 in
2
per
1000 Btu/hr, but not less then 100 in
2
and within 6” of the top and bottom of the closet door. All Vent and Air-Intake piping
within the closet must be CPVC for both Canada and the US. See Table 2.1 for Minimum and Recommended Clearances.
Alcove Installations
Alcove installations have the same minimum clearances as closet installations, except the front must be completely open to the
room at a distance no greater then 18” [457 mm] from the front of the appliance and the room is at least three (3) times the size of
the alcove. Provided these conditions are met, the appliance requires no extra ventilation air openings to the space. All Vent and
Air-Intake piping within the alcove must be CPVC for both Canada and the US. See Table 2-1 for Minimum and Recommended
Clearances.
Residential Garage Installations
When installed in a residential garage, mount the appliance a minimum of 18” [457 mm] above the floor. Locate or protect the
appliance so it cannot be damaged by a moving vehicle. Check with your local authorities for other possible regulations
pertaining to the installation of an appliance in a garage.

clearances listed in Table 2-1. See special instructions under Closet and Alcove Installations.
