Safety Information And Codes - DeDietrich GT 530A Series Assembly, Installation And Service Manual

CAUTION
The operator/ultimate owner is required to have the
heating boiler, burners, and controls checked, as a
minimum once per year, by the original installer or
by a competent heating contractor familiar with the
equipment. Defects must be corrected immediately.
Do not use this boiler if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified heating contractor to inspect
the boiler and to replace any part of the control system
and any gas control which has been under water.
Do not store chemicals containing chlorine or other
corrosive materials near the boiler, such as bleach,
cleaning solvents, detergents, acids, hair spray, spray
cans, paint thinners, paint, or water softener salt.
Important
Do not use the boiler if any section of it has been
subjected to water or submerged in water. Immediately
call your service company to inspect and replace any
part of the control system and gas components which
have been subjected to water or submerged in water.
Boiler modification and spare parts
This boiler uses specific original manufactured parts.
The boiler must not be modified or non-OEM parts used
without the written approval from DDR Americas Inc.
Carbon monoxide
The installation of carbon monoxide detectors is highly
recommended by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission for buildings with gas burning equipment.
Sources of carbon monoxide include exhaust vents for
gas appliances or wood burning fireplaces that are not
properly vented, malfunctioning furnaces and exhaust
fumes from idling cars.
Carbon monoxide is a colourless and odourless gas
that is highly toxic. It can interfere with the delivery
of oxygen by the blood to the body. Exposure to low
levels of CO can cause headaches, confusion, nausea,
dizziness, fatigue, and shortness of breath. High level
exposure of CO can cause impaired vision, convulsions,
coma and possibly death.
Have a qualified service technician inspect the heating
equipment exhaust vent pipes and chimney flues on a
yearly basis.
In winter, inspect the exhaust vents for the dryer,
furnace, wood burning or gas stove, fireplace and heat
recovery ventilator to ensure they are not obstructed
by snow build-up.
Carbon monoxide detectors should be installed and
maintained in buildings that house gas burning
equipment. It is recommended to use a carbon
monoxide detector that is in compliance with a
nationally recognized standard such as ANSI/UL 2034-
2002 or CSA 6.19-01.
