service clearances (
),
but
no less than shown in Figure 4
— An access door must be provided,
fitted with two air openings as shown

Residential garage installation
Precautions
Take the following special precautions when installing the boiler in a
residential garage. If the boiler is located in a residential garage, per
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, paragraph 5.1.9:
• Mount the boiler a minimum of
18 inches above the floor
of the
garage to assure the burner and ignition devices will be no less than
18 inches above the floor.
• Locate or
protect the boiler
so it cannot be damaged by a moving
vehicle.
Minimum clearances
You can install GV90+ boilers in spaces smaller than
recommended service clearances, but never
smaller than shown in Figure 4.
Installations with clearances less than shown in
must have air openings sized and located as
shown in Figure 4.
• Always provide at least screwdriver clearance to jacket front panel
screws for removal of front panel for inspection and minor service.
• If the boiler
cannot be serviced in place
, pipe the boiler with unions
and isolation valves so it can be slid out of the space and serviced in
an adjacent area.
• The space has to be equipped with a door so boiler can be accessed,
unpiped and removed.
