MACH boilers with standard components and with many options complies with American National Standard/CSA
Standard ANSI Z21.13/CSA 4.9, latest edition, Gas Fired Low Pressure Steam and Hot Water Boilers.
The heat exchanger is constructed and stamped in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section
IV for 125 psig maximum operating pressure.
Installation of the boiler must conform to all the requirements of all national, state and local codes established by the
authorities having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 latest edition in the U.S. In Canada, the equipment shall be installed in accordance with the current
Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, CAN/CSA-B.149, latest edition, and applicable
Provincial Regulations for the class, which should be carefully followed in all cases. Authorities having jurisdiction
should be consulted before installations are made.
Where required by local codes, the installation must conform to American Society of Mechanical Engineers Safety
Code for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers (ASME CSD-1).
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (a) this unit must be installed by a licensed pipe fitter / plumber, (b) field
installed gas cocks must be "T" handle type, (c) piping of condensate shall conform to the State Plumbing Code, and
(d) refer to the Massachusetts Supplement for further details.

3.3.1 Foundation and Placement
Provide a firm, level foundation, preferably of concrete.
this boiler, maintain positive control of it at all times. Do not attempt to move the boiler on surfaces that are not
level. Failure to heed this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Lifting the front of the boiler slightly will allow the boiler to be rolled off the shipping skid onto the concrete foundation.
Once in position, the wheel bolts may be removed allowing the wheels to recess up into the boiler. The base will sit
flat on the provided foundation. All of our boilers are supplied with leveling feet to adjust the boiler to a level position
on the floor. This is very important to maintain proper condensate drainage and correct operation of the boiler. If the
boiler is to be pulled out for maintenance, the wheels may be left attached.
3.3.2 Placement
The boiler must be level to function properly. There are six 9/16" holes in the base that may be used for 3/8" seismic
anchors.
NOTICE! The boiler may be installed on a combustible floor; however, the boiler must never be installed on carpeting.
3.3.3 Clearances
If the boiler is to be installed near combustible surfaces, the minimum clearances shown in the pictures and table
below must be maintained. Failure to provide for the service access clearances, even with non-combustible surfaces,
may cause future problems servicing the boiler. Maintain a clearance from the vent to combustible surfaces of 18" or
as specified in the vent manufacturer's listed installation instructions. The boiler must be installed in a space large in
comparison to the boiler as described in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
