WARNING
Carefully read all instructions before installing
boiler. Failure to follow all instructions in proper
order can cause personal injury or death.
A. Inspect shipment carefully for any signs of
damage. All equipment is carefully manufactured,
inspected and packed. Our responsibility
ceases upon delivery of boiler to carrier in good
condition. Any claim for damage or shortage
in shipment must be filed immediately against
carrier by consignee. No claims for variances or
shortages will be allowed by Boiler Manufacturer,
unless presented within sixty (60) days after
receipt of equipment.
B. Installation must conform to the requirements of
the authority having jurisdiction. In the absence
of such requirements, installation must conform to
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
C. Appliance is design certified for installation on
combustible flooring. The boiler must not be
installed on carpeting.
D. Provide clearance between boiler jacket and
combustible material in accordance with local
fire ordinance. Refer to Figures 1-3 and 1-4 for
minimum clearance from combustible material.
Provide 1/2" clearance from water piping to
combustible materials.
E. Provide practical service clearances. A minimum
of 24" from the left side and front jacket panels is
recommended for servicing but may be reduced
to minimums shown in Figures 1-3 and 1-4.
F. Install on level floor. For basement installation
provide concrete base if floor is not level or if
water may be encountered on floor around boiler.
