1. Seal any unused openings in the common
venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper
size and horizontal pitch and determine there is
no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe
condition.
3. As much as possible, close all building doors
and windows. Also close all doors between
the space in which the appliances remaining
connected to the common venting system are
located and other spaces of the building. Turn
on any clothes dryers or other appliances not
connected to the common venting system. Turn
on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods
and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate
at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer
exhaust fan. Close any fireplace dampers.
4. Place in operation the appliance being
inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust
the thermostat so the appliance will operate
continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening
after five minutes of main burner operation. Use
the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a
cigarette, cigar or pipe.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance
remaining connected to the common venting
system properly vents when tested as outlined
above, return the doors, windows, exhaust fans,
fireplace dampers and any other gas burning
appliances to their previous conditions of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting
system should be corrected so that the instal-
lation conforms to the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1,
Installation Codes. When resizing any portion of
the common venting system, the common vent-
ing system should be resized to approach the
minimum size as determined using the appropri-
ate tables and guidelines in the National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 NFPA 54 and/or CSA
B149.1, Installation Codes.

Outdoor Installation
The Brute 1000 & 1200's may only be installed
outdoors in applications where the outdoor
temperature doesn't drop below freezing. For proper
operation in outdoor installations, the boiler must
be equipped with the inlet air and exhaust terminal
kits listed in Table 3C. The bottom panel cover
plate must be removed. Additional instructions are
supplied with the terminal kits.
3.6
Condensate Drain Trap
A condensate drain trap is included with the Brute
and is designed to drain the boiler of condensate.
The vent condensate should be drained through
a drain tee located in the vent line. This will help
prevent excessive condensate from entering the
boiler condensate trap and preventing the boiler
from operating.
Connect a 3/4" PVC pipe between the drain
connection and a floor drain (or condensate pump if
a floor drain is not accessible).
The condensate drain must be installed to
prevent the accumulation of condensate. When
a condensate pump is not used, the tubing must
continuously slope downward toward the drain with
no spiraling.
Consult local codes for the disposal method.
Condensate is mildly acidic (pH=5), and may
harm some floor drains and/or pipes, particularly
those that are metal. Ensure that the drain,
drainpipe, and anything that will come in
contact with the condensate can withstand the
acidity, or neutralize the condensate before
disposal. Damage caused by failure to
install a neutralizer kit or to adequately treat
condensate will not be the manufacturer's
responsibility.
