CAUTION!!! This boiler is not designed for direct
outdoor installation. If installed outside of the structure
that it supplies hot water too, it must be sheltered so it is
protected from rain, wind, sun and frost. NEVER place this
boiler in a location that would subject it to temperatures at
or near freezing. Failure to properly locate this boiler can
result in premature failure voiding the warranty.
When locating the boiler the following factors must be
considered:
• the location of vent/air intake terminals;
• connection to the gas supply;
• connection to the water supply;
• connection to the heating system;
• connection to the domestic hot water system;
• connection to the electrical supply;
• disposal of the condensation produced by the boiler;
• connection to the room thermostat;
• piping of the safety relief valve discharge;
• possible connection of the outdoor temperature
sensor;
• possible connection of an indirect storage tank, see
