2.1)
Safety Rules:
Your unit is built to provide many years of safe and dependable
service providing
it is properly installed and maintained.
However,
abuse and/or improper use can shorten the life of the unit and create
hazards for you, the owner.
The U.S. Consumer
Product Safety Commission
recommends
that users of oil-burning
appliances
install carbon
monoxide
detectors.
There can be various sources of carbon monoxide in
a building or dwelling.
The sources could be gas-fired clothes
dryers, gas cooking stoves, water heaters, furnaces, gas-fired
fireplaces,
wood fireplaces, and several other items.
Carbon
monoxide
can
cause
serious
bodily
injury
and/or
death.
Therefore, to help alert people d potentially dangerous carbon
monoxide levels, you should have carbon monoxide
detectors
listed
by a nationally
recognised
agency
(e.g.
Underwriters
Laboratories
or International
Approval
Services)
installed and
maintained in the building or dwelling (see Note).
b.
There can be numerous sources of fire or smoke in a building or
dwelling.
Fire or smoke can cause serious bodily injury, death,
and/or property damage.
Therefore, in order to alert people of
potentially dangerous fire or smoke, you should have fire and
smoke
detectors
listed by Underwriters
Laboratories
installed
and maintained in the building or dwelling (see Note below).
I NOTE: The manufacturer
of your furnace does not test any detectors
and makes
no representations
regarding
any
brand or type of
detector.
I
CAUTION
Insure that the area around the combustion air intake
terminal is free of snow, ice and debris.
2.2)
Freezing Temperature
and Your
Structure:
Your unit is equipped with safety devices that may keep it from
operating
if sensors
detect abnormal
conditions
such as clogged
exhaust flues.
If the structure will be unattended during cold weather you should take
these precautions.
a.
Turn off main water supply into the structure and drain the water
lines if possible.
Open faucets in appropriate areas.
b.
Have
someone
check
the
structure
frequently
during
cold
weather to make sure it is warm enough to prevent pipes from
freezing.
Suggest
they
call a qualified
service
agency,
if
required.
2.3)
Installation regulation:
All local and national code requirements governing the installation of
oil burning equipment, wiring and flue connections MUST be followed.
Some of the codes that may be applicable are:
