The boiler location must never be under negative pressure.
Exhaust fans, attic fans, or dryer fans may cause air to be
exhausted at a rate higher than air can enter the structure for
safe combustion.
Excerpt from our warranty terms
Boiler is not covered under any warranty terms for damages
resulting from the following:
Improper application and installation, installation by unqualified
personnel, ignorance of instructions, improper service and
maintenance work, incorrect replacement component selection or
application, incorrect field wiring. Full warranty applies only when
boiler is installed and operated according to instructions and
used only with the proper gas and the applicable gas pressures.
Please read boiler warranty card.

Installation on combustible floor
Placement of boiler
1.
Verify that base size and material are in conformity with
local codes.
2.
Locate the base so that the minimum clearances of boiler
to combustible materials are maintained as outlined on
page 3.
3.
Base must be constructed of hollow concrete blocks,
minimum height 100 mm (4˝), covered with sheet metal at
least 24 ga. thick.
4.
The base must extend beyond the boiler enclosure by at
least 150 mm (6˝) on all sides.
5.
The blocks must be placed to provide an unbroken
concrete surface under the boiler, with the hollows running
continuously and horizontally to allow air circulation.
Boiler water piping
Install pressure relief valve and pressure gage directly to boiler
supply. No isolation valve must be installed between boiler
supply and pressure relief valve. Install pressure relief valve as
shown in Fig. 4.
Water piping must be supported by pipe hangers. Boiler must
not support weight of water piping.
Before boiler is connected to a piping/heating system which
has previously been in service (boiler is a replacement boiler),
the piping system should be flushed thoroughly with water in
order to remove sludge or other contaminants, especially in
large piping systems such as old gravity pipe systems.
Check system for pipe leaks, defective valves etc. and make
required corrections immediately.
