WARNING: Do not install the boiler on carpeting
If the boiler is to be installed in an enclosed room with no fresh air intake, the room must
have proper vent louvers installed. There should be two louvers, place each within 12" of
the ceiling and floor respectively. Each vent will have a free area of 54 square inches.
Note: For boilers in an enclosed
space it is recommended to install
a CO detector in the boiler room.
When choosing an installation location insure the exhaust and intake pipes comply with
NFPA 54. The drawing on the next page illustrates the restrictions on exhaust locations.
