INTREPID TRDV
B. The boiler is approved for installation on a combustible
floor, but subject to any local code requirements. NOT TO
BE INSTALLED ON OR ABOVE CARPET.
C. The TRDV Boiler has full wet base sections which
surround fire-box for maximum heat absorption of burning
fuel, and low floor temperature.
D. If boiler is to be located over buried conduit containing
electric wires or telephone cables, consult local codes for
specific requirements.
CAUTION: NEVER BURN GARBAGE OR PAPER IN THE
BOILER, AND NEVER LEAVE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIAL AROUND IT.
MINIMUM CLEARANCE
Provide accessibility clearance of 610mm (24") from surfaces
requiring servicing (front) and 457mm (18") on any side
requiring passage. The boiler shall be installed with the
following MINIMUM clearances from combustible materials:
BACK AND SIDES- 152mm (6"); FLOOR - the boiler is
approved for installation on a combustible floor, but subject to
local code requirements.
NOTE: Except in closets and alcoves, clearances above may
be reduced by providing forms of protection as specified in
CSA B139, latest addition.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS
• The terminal shall not be closer than 914mm (3 feet)
above or 3048mm (10 feet) horizontally from any forced air
inlet into the building.
• The terminal shall not be closer than 1219mm (4 feet)
below, 1219mm (4 feet) horizontally or 305mm (1 foot)
above any door, window or gravity air inlet into the
building.
• The terminal shall not be less than 914mm (3 feet) from an
inside corner of an "L " shaped building.
• The terminal shall not be less than 2134mm (7 ft) above
grade when located adjacent to public walkways.
• The terminal shall not be less than 610mm (2 ft) from an
adjacent building.
• The terminal shall be located at a height not liable to
blockage from leaves, snow or other debris, at least
305mm (1 ft) above grade or anticipated snow line.
• The terminal shall be positioned so that flue gases are not
directed where they can jeopardize people, overheat
combustible structures or enter buildings.
• Vent terminal should be away from shrubbery or other
obstructions that would prevent free air flow to and from
vent terminal. Do not terminate vent under decks,
stairways or car ports. When ever possible, locations
under windows should be avoided.
• Vent termination should not be mounted directly above or
within 914mm (3 feet) horizontally from an oil tank vent.

VENT PIPING

A. The vent piping minimum bend radius is 305mm (12").
B. Place metal strapping every 914mm (36") to support vent
pipe and prevent it from sagging.
C. Maximum wall thickness is 356mm (14"). Contact Slant/Fin
for recommendations in case of thicker wall.
D. Gases will form white plume in winter. Plume could
obstruct window view.
E. Prevailing winds could cause freezing of condensate and
water/ice buildup on building, plants or roof.
F. Locate or guard vent to prevent accidental contact by
people or pets, and condensate from damaging exterior
finish.
G. Do not terminate vent in window well, stairwell, alcove,
courtyard, or other recessed areas.
All venting kits must be double wall construction for the flue
gas piping. Flex-L is the approved manufacturers for venting
kits. When installing the vent kits the manufacturers
instructions must be followed.

INSTALLING WATER TRIM

Notes: Jacket must be installed on boiler units prior to
installation of trim.
I. WATER BOILER TRIM, see page 2 for tapping locations,
and figures 1 and 2 for illustration of water boiler.
A. Pressure/temperature gauge — use tapping no. 6.
B. Safety High Limit — (single, dual, or combination
control)
C. Water relief valve — use tapping no. 3, piped full size to
boiler.
D. Automatic air vent or compression tank tapping —
install in tapping no.2.
F. Combustion safety control — mounted on burner.

PIPING
IMPORTANT: Boilers are to be used with closed system. Any
application that uses steam or water from system, causes the
introduction of a frequent supply of fresh water into the boiler.
This will cause damage to the boiler. Use of heat exchangers
will prevent this damage.
