FOR LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P .)
PROPANE 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 or
CSA B 149.1 latest edition for natural gas
and propane
. The installation must also conform to the
additional requirements in this Slant/Fin Instruction Book.
In addition, where required by the authority having juris dic -
tion, the installation must conform to American Society of
Mechanical Engineers Safety Code for Controls and Safety
Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers, No. CSD-1 or
149.1 latest edition for natural gas and propane
any conflict in the above requirements, then the more
stringent requirement will apply.
This manual must be left with owner and should be hung on
or adjacent to the boiler for reference.
WARNING
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.
