Boiler must NOT be installed on carpet. In addition, the boiler shall be installed such that the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and service (circulator replacement, control replacement, etc.)
60-75 percent free area as shown in Sec. 5.3.5 National Fuel Gas Code. 3. If the boiler room is located against an outside wall and air openings can communicate directly with the outdoors, the two openings on the outside wall must each have a net free area as shown in Table D.
The weight of the vent stack or chimney must not rest on the boiler's drafthood. Support must be provided in compliance with applicable codes. The boiler top and drafthood must be readily removable for maintenance and inspection.

3.25 codes. Common Vents Manifolds that connect more than one boiler to a com- mon chimney must be sized to handle the combined load. Consult available guides for proper sizing of the manifold and the chimney. At no time should the area be less than the area of the largest outlet.
At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the follow- ing steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remain- ing connected to the common venting system are not in operation.
Check vent damper operation as follows: 1. When the boiler is off, check that the vent damper position indicator points to the closed position (see Fig. 11).

0180 Table H: Maximum Equivalent Pipe Length (Feet) Gas Supply Connections The inlet gas connection of the boiler gas valve is 1/2". Provide an adequate gas piping supply line no smaller than 1/2", according to Table H above. Gas piping must have a sediment trap ahead of the boiler gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve locat- ed outside the jacket.

Relay mostat. Whenever the room thermostat is calling for heat, the circulator supplied with the boiler will be energized and should be running. The ignition control module will also be energized to initiate the pilot ignition by opening the first main valve (pilot).
Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion. D. Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service techni- cian to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
*If the pilot does not stay lit after several tries, move the gas control lever to "OFF" and call your service technician or gas supplier. 9. Stand to the side of the boiler and move the gas control lever counter-clockwise 10. Turn on all electrical power to the boiler.
Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion. D. Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service techni- cian to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
3. Turn off all gas valves supplying gas to the boiler. Refer to operating instruction label on the boiler. 4. Shut-off the water supply to the boiler piping sys- tem loop. 5. Open drain valve on the boiler to remove water from the boiler and the piping circuits.
Inspection Procedures Burners Clean main burners and air louvers of dust, lint and debris. Keep boiler area clear and free from com- bustibles and flammable liquids. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Make visual check of burner and pilot flame. Yellow flame indicates clogging of air openings.
5. Lift heat exchanger straight up using caution not to damage refractory. RAYPAK TUBE CLEANING KIT Auger with Carbide Tip Fig. 35: Raypak Tube Cleaning Kit Wire Brush - "...
7. Open water supply and return shut-off valves. Fill boiler and water piping system with water. Check boiler and piping system for leaks at full line pres- sure. Run system circulating pump for a minimum of 1/2 hour with boiler shut off.
