Venting

Adhere to the following venting requirements:
1. The boiler can be installed with either sealed combustion or a conventional
venting arrangement. With either venting con guration, the di erence
in pressure readings at the boiler exhaust connection and air intake
connection cannot exceed 1.0" W.C. This equates to 70 feet (21.3 m) and 8
elbows when combining the distances on the air intake and exhaust with
the piping diameters matching the standard connections.
2. The pressure at the boiler exhaust connection must not exceed 0.05" W.C.
negative. This pressure must remain relatively constant throughout the
operation of the boiler.
3. The boiler should not be operated with a negative pressure in the boiler
room (unless there is sealed combustion [intake piped outside]). Pay
particular attention to other equipment installed in the boiler room such as
compressors and air handling units.
4. Consult your venting pipe supplier for assistance with sizing of vent
materials and other potentially required accessories.
NOTE: An air intake lter is included as standard. The air intake lter must be
inspected and, if required, cleaned and/or replaced on a monthly basis at a
minimum.
