WARNING
The venting system of this boiler is under positiv e pres-
sure when it is connected to the outdoors with 3" diameter
pipe. Leakage from this system can be hazardous and if
not avoided can result in death or ser ious injury. In addi-
tion to the recommendations within this man ual 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.
