CLEARANCES: Your water boiler is design certified to use on combustible floors. The
side and back clearances for combustible constructions are as follows: 6 inches from
side and 8 inches from back. The water boiler must be installed with 4 inch high legs
provided.
GAS CONNECTION: Before connecting the water boiler to the gas line, check the
rating label on the side panel to make sure that the gas type called for on the label
coincides with the type of gas available on site. A 3/8 NPT gas connection is needed
to connect the unit to the gas line. An accessible manual shut-off valve must be
installed in the gas supply line in case of an emergency. The gas supply pipe must be
sized to accommodate all the gas fired equipment that may be connected to it. Check
with your local Gas Company as to proper pipe size. Sealant on all pipe joints must
be resistive to propane gas. Before attempting to light the water boiler, check all joints
for gas tightness using a soap and water solution.
WATER CONNECTION: Use 1/4 inch outside diameter copper tubing to
connect the unit to the water supply line. The water line must have a
shut-off valve (supplied by a plumber). At the unit, connect the tubing to
the compression water inlet valve at the upper right hand side of the
unit.
NOTE: Connecting the unit to a warm water supply will speed by heating
and recovery time.
PRIMING OR INITIAL FILLING: Turn on the water supply. The unit fills at the rate of 1
gallon/minute. When the water level becomes visible in the side gauge turn the
thermostat knob to ON position. The boiler will now automatically fill to capacity and
heat the water.
LIGHTING AND ADJUSTMENT: Water must be visible in the sight glass before
lighting to pilot. Turn the thermostat knob to its lowest position. Turn gas cock dial to
PILOT position. Depress gas cock dial and light pilot with a long lighted match
through the opening located to the right of the thermostat. Hold in depressed position
for approximately 30 sec. or until pilot remains lit when dial is released.
NOTE: On the first lighting it may be necessary to hold the dial for a longer period to
allow trapped air to escape from the line.
