Boiler
Location
Locate boiler on level, non=combustible
foundation as near
to chimney or flue as possible. Allow 24 inches at front and
sides of boiler for servicing and cleaning. When installed in
utility room, the door should be wide enough to allow the
largest boiler parts to enter, or permit replacement
of any
other appliance in the same room.
Tnstalling
contractor
must
provide
ventilated
foundation
for boiler when
installing:
• Over a room
Minimum
Vent Pipe Clearance
If the vent pipe must go through a crawl space, double
wall vent pipe should be used. Where vent passes through
a combustible wall or partition,
use a ventilated
metal
thimble. The thimble should be 4 inches larger in diameter
than vent pipe. If boiler is installed with single wall
galvanized type vent pipe, it must have 6 inches clearance
between its surface and any combustible
material. If
UL listed type B (insulated) vent pipe is used, clearance
between it and combustible
material to be as listed by pipe
manufacturer.
• Over electrical
wiring
or cables of any kind
• Tf concrete
floor is "green,"
or water
is channeled
under
concrete
floor
Combustion
Air
Provide combustion and ventilation
air in accordance
with the section "Air for Combustion and Ventilation", of
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA
54, or
applicable provisions of the local building codes.
Chimney And Vent Pipe Connection
This is a very important
part of the heating system. It must
be clean, the right size, properly constructed
and in Good
Condition.
No boiler can function properly with a bad
chimney. See Pages 6-::L0 for specific venting instructions.
Flue pipe should be same size as draft hood outlet from boiler
to flue collector. See Chart 1 for Typical Chimney Size. Main-
rain a minimum upward slope of 1/4 inch per linear foot from
boiler to the chimney. Fasten joints together with sheet metal
screws to prevent sagging.
