The venting system of this boiler is under positive pres-
sure. Leakage from this system can be hazardous and if
not avoided can result in death or serious injury. In addi-
tion to the recommendations within this manual and the
User's Information Manual, the venting system, from the
blower to the outdoor discharge, must be carefully
checked annually by a qualified service agency.

WARNINGS AND STATEMENTS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation location ONLY as permitted in paragraph
entitled "LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.) PROPANE
GAS-FIRED BOILER LOCATION" on page 4 of this
instruction book.
The above warning does not apply to NATURAL gas-
fired boilers.
The installation must conform to the requirements of
the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of
such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1-latest edition. The installation must also
conform to the additional requirements in this Slant/Fin
Instruction Book.
In addition where required by the authority having juris-
diction, the installation must conform to American
Society of Mechanical Engineers Safety Code for
Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired
Boilers, No. CSD-1.
This boiler, gas piping and accessories must be
installed, connected, serviced and repaired by a
trained, experienced service technician, familiar with all
precautions required for gas-fired equipment and
licensed or otherwise qualified, in compliance with the
authority having jurisdiction.

  • Page 2: Dimensions, Rating And Orifice Sizes

    Propane Orifice sizes indicated for sea level above are factory installed in boiler unless otherwise specified by the local authority. Orifice table is based on a higher heating value between 1000 Btuh and 1010 Btuh for Natural Gas (See page 20, if local higher heat- ing value exceeds these numbers).

  • Page 4: Installation Requirements

    Provide a level, solid foundation for the boiler. Location should be as near as possible to chimney or outside wall so that the flue pipe from boiler is short and direct. (See Appen- dix A for vent terminal location restrictions.) The location should also be such that all boiler components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance...
  • Page 5: Venting Application

    VENTING APPLICATION VSPH Series are sealed combustion type boilers, they maybe installed and vented either as a direct vent boiler which all air for combustion is obtained directly from outside or as a non- direct vent boiler which air for combustion is taken from inside the boiler room.
  • Page 6: Air Intake Material

    5. Flue length restriction is for both direct and non-direct vent installations. ICTORY VSPH Models EXAMPLE: Boiler model VSPH-180 is to be installed at sea level. The combustion air is provided by air intake piping directly to the boiler (direct-vent installation). Flue piping includes 2 elbows and using Heat-Fab system.

    A. SIDEWALL DIRECT VENTING Figures 9 and 10 show typical sidewall direct venting. Slant/Fin vent/air intake termination MUST be used for this method of installation. CAUTION: Flue gasses existing from the vent terminal will condense. Building materials in the area of the terminal should be protected from discoloration and degradation.
