Air supply and flue gas exhaust in a closed installation A ventilation cover is integrated into the 500 Series condensing gas boilers. This cover houses a number of components, such as the burner and the heat exchanger. Since this ventilation cover is part of the air supply system, it is vital that it is always installed correctly.
