Appendix E – Installation and Quick Reference

Fuel/Gas Supply

Refer to
3.7
for information on proper sizing of the gas supply piping. Undersized gas piping
with too much pressure drop will negatively impact the boiler's performance.
Install a lock-up type gas regulator to supply an appropriate gas pressure as described below:
Natural Gas
Minimum Inlet Pressure = 4.0"
Maximum Inlet Pressure = 14.0"
NOTE: Patterson-Kelley recommends installing an individual lock-up type gas regulator in the
gas supply piping to each boiler. For installations where one master lock-up type gas pressure
regulator will service multiple boilers, Patterson-Kelley recommends contacting the local
regulator representative for application assistance specifying the appropriate lock-up type
regulator and gas pipe sizing.

Electrical/Power Supply

Carefully inspect the boiler's nameplate labels which describe the power supply requirements.
Provide an appropriate power feed to the boiler with overcurrent protection:
Boiler Model
SL-1500 / SL-2000 (240V)
SL-2500 / SL-3000 (240V)
Prior to startup, carefully check all electrical connections for tightness as connections can come
lose during shipping.

Exhaust Venting

The
P-K SOLIS
boilers are dual-certified as Category II & Category IV appliances, capable of
operating with slightly negative to slightly positive exhaust pressure. It is critical to ensure the
flue venting material is suitable for use with the boiler.
For Category II installations, ensure the flue venting system is designed to maintain a slightly
negative exhaust pressure between -0.01" W.C. and -0.05" W.C.
For Direct Vent / Sealed Combustion Category IV installations, ensure the flue venting system is
designed to maintain a slightly positive exhaust pressure between +0.01" and +0.22" W.C.
For Exhaust Only Category IV installations, ensure the flue venting system is designed to
maintain a slightly positive exhaust pressure between +0.01" and +0.44" W.C.
