A. GENERAL
1. Use fl exible oil line(s) so the burner swing door
can be opened without disconnecting the oil supply
piping.
2. A supply line fuel oil fi lter is recommended as a
minimum for all fi ring rates but a pleated paper fuel
oil fi lter is recommended for the fi ring rates below
1.0 gph to prevent nozzle fouling.
3. Use Flared fi ttings only. Cast iron fi ttings cannot be
used.

4. Use of a high effi ciency micron fi lter (Garber or
equivalent) in addition to a conventional fi lter is
highly recommended.
5. Piping used to connect the oil burner to the oil
supply tank shall not be smaller than 3/8" iron pipe
or 3/8" OD copper tubing. Copper tubing shall have
a .032" minimum wall thickness.

B. SINGLE PIPE OIL LINES
1. Standard burners are provided with single-stage
3450 rpm fuel units with the bypass plug removed
d
for single-pipe installations.
2. The single-stage fuel unit may be installed single-
pipe with gravity feed or lift. Maximum allowable
lift is 8 feet. See Figure 21.
o t
3. Fuel Oil Line Deaerator – On many occasions a
leaky oil delivery line can introduce air into the
n i
fuel oil supply system. This often creates a rough
starting condition and can create a burner lockout
state. In addition to fi xing the leak, a fuel line
deaerator can be installed to eliminate air. The
single line from the fuel tank is connected to the
deaerator. The burner pump must be connected
to the deaerator as a two pipe system. Follow the
oil pump manufacturer's recommendations for
conversion to a two pipe system.
