WOOD BOILER INSTRUCTIONS Page 19 Copyright © 2011 Seton Wood Boilers all rights reserved
THE SETON BOILER WILL NOT ALWAYS WORK ON A MASONRY CHIMNEY.
The chimney used for the boiler must not be used to ventilate the cellar or basement. If there is a cleanout opening in
the base of the chimney, close it tightly.
Listed chimney
Carefully follow chimney manufacturer’s instructions. Use only a listed chimney. If your chimney starts at the ceiling,
you will need enough 8” round black stove pipe to reach the ceiling. The top of the chimney must be at least three (3)
feet above the roof and be at least two (2) feet higher than any point of the roof within ten (10) feet.
If you have any questions regarding venting your boiler, contact the manufacturer or contact the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) and request a copy of the latest editions of NFPA Standard 211 and NFPA Standard 908. Their ad-
dress is:
Battery March Park, Quincy, MA 02269
CHIMNEY CONNECTIONS
Because of the very high efficiency of the Seton boiler the
flue gas exhaust temperatures can be low enough to
cause condensation in the chimney. This condensation
may, over time, damage a masonry chimney. If you have
condensation in your chimney, a stainless steel chimney
liner must be installed inside the flue
Chimney caps will drip creosote on the ground and roof.
