Install according to the applicable code such as NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE ANDSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 AND/OR NATIONAL GAS AND PROPANE INSTALLATION CODE CAN/CSA B149.1. The gas piping must be installed between the gas meter and the combination gas valve (located upstream of the Riello gas burner on the furnace.
  • Page 10 GAS SUPPLY PRESSURE • Maximum supply pressure: 13 inches W.C. • Minimum supply pressure: 7” inches W.C. • WARNING: • Do not expose the combination gas valve to gas pressures in excess of 14” W.C. The valve has a safety mechanism that interrupt the flow of gas over 14” W.C. In any event higher pressure could damage the valve seat, resulting in potentially hazardous conditions.
  • Page 11 • If the gas supply pressure can exceed 14 inches of water column at any time, you must install a lockup type gas pressure regulator in the gas supply piping, ahead of the main manual gas valve on the burner. •...

Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar, or pipe. 6. After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous condition of use.
  • Page 14 Horizontal portions of the venting system shall be supported to prevent sagging by installing support every 36 inches. The horizontal runs must be sloping upwards not less than ¼ inch per foot from the boiler to the chimney connector. A furnace shall not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate appliance designed to burn solid fuel.
  • Page 15 DRAFT Use approved DOUBLE ACTING draft control supplied for 5” pipe. Set specified draft minimum pressure of -0.01” wc. THE CHIMNEY MUST BE EQUIPPED WITH A DOUBLE ACTING DRAFT REGULATOR. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS MAY RESULT IN IMPROPER OPERATION LEADING TO POTENTIAL DANGEROUS OPERATION OF UNIT AND INJURIES TO PERSON AND LOSS OF LIFE.
