prevent freezing of liquid condensate.
• Approved for installation in closets or alcove provided
it is correctly designed for that purpose and minimum
clearances are met.
• Protect gas ignition system components from water
(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during operation and
service (circulator replacement, condensate trap,
control replacement, etc.).
• Access to outdoors to meet minimum and maximum
pipe lengths for combustion air and vent piping. See
section 6.
• Disposal of condensate. See section 6.
• Drainage of water (or water - antifreeze solution)
during boiler service or from safety relief valve
discharge. See section 5.
• Access to system water piping, gas supply, and
electrical service. See sections 5, 7 and 8.
• Clearances to combustible materials and service
clearances. See Table 1 and Figures pg. 11.
• Room-sealed boiler installed in a room containing bath
or shower shall be installed so person using bath or
shower cannot touch any electrical switch or boiler
control utilizing line voltage electricity.

truck. Insert dolly or hand truck under left hand side of
boiler. It is possible to slide boiler for short distance on
smooth floor or surface.
• Adjust the position of the boiler verify it is level and
plumb.
• Select level location central to piping systems served
and as close to vent and air intake terminals as
possible.
• Accessibility clearances, if more stringent (i.e. larger
clearances) than required fire protection clearances,
must be used for boiler installation. Accessibility
clearances may be achieved with the use of removable
walls or partitions.
• Boiler is approved for installation in closets and
on combustible floors. This boiler shall NOT be
installed on carpeting.
• Install equipment in location which facilitates operation
of venting and combustion air intake piping systems as
described in this manual.
• Advise owner to keep venting and combustion air
intake passages free of obstructions. Both venting
and combustion air intake piping systems connected
to outdoors must permit flow through piping systems
without restrictions for boiler operation.
• Keep boiler area clean of debris and free of flammable
and combustible materials, vapors and liquids.
