4) Do not install this boiler in a location where gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids will be stored or used. Do not
install this boiler in an area where large amounts of airborne dust will be present, such as a workshop.
5) The boiler should be located as close to the chimney as possible.
6) Do not install this boiler directly on a surface that may get wet. Raise the boiler on a pad.
V Air for Combustion and Ventilation
Sufficient fresh air must be supplied for combustion, ventilation and flue gas dilution. Provisions for combustion, ventilation
and flue gas dilution air for gas utilization equipment vented by natural draft must be made in accordance with local building
codes or, in absence of such codes, in accordance with sections 5.3.3 and 5.3.4 (“Air for Combustion and Ventilation”) of the
National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1.
To ensure an adequate supply of combustion, ventilation and flue gas dilution air supply, start by determining whether the
boiler is to be installed in a building of unusually tight construction. A good definition of a building of unusually tight
construction is one which has all of the following features:
Walls and ceilings exposed to outside atmosphere have a continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 perm or
less with openings gasketed and sealed
Weather stripping has been added on openable windows and doors
Caulking and sealants are applied to areas such as joints around window and door frames, between sole plates and
floors, between wall-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and gas lines, and at
other openings.
