PETROLEUM (L.P.) PROPANE GAS-FIRED BOILERS
The installation must conform to the requirements of the
authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such
requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-
latest edition. The installation must also conform to the addi-
tional requirements in this Slant/Fin Instruction Book.
In addition where required by the authority having jurisdic-
tion, the installation must conform to American Society of

This boiler, gas piping and accessories must be installed,
connected, serviced and repaired by a trained, experienced
service technician, familiar with all precautions required for
gas-fired equipment and licensed or otherwise qualified, in
compliance with the authority having jurisdiction.
The venting system of this boiler is under positive pressure

Leakage from this system can be hazardous and if not avoid-
ed can result in death or serious injury. In addition to the rec-
ommendations within this manual and the User's Information
