installation provide top clearance of 27 inches and right
side clearance of 6 inches. Recommended service
clearance is 24 inches from left side, right side and front.

G. Protect gas ignition system components from water
(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during boiler operation
and service (circulator replacement, condensate trap,
control replacement, etc.).
H. Provide combustion and ventilation air in accordance
with applicable provisions of local building codes, or
National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1,
Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, or
Sections 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 of CAN/CGA B149 Installation
Codes.
WARNING
Adequate combustion and ventilation air

combustion.
The following guideline is based on the National Fuel
Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1.
1. Determine volume of space (boiler room). Rooms
communicating directly with space (through
openings not furnished with doors) are considered
