I Product Description
The ODV series boiler is a cast iron oil red boiler designed for use in forced hot water heating
systems. The ODV boiler must be vented using the factory supplied venting system with combus-
tion air taken from outdoors. The ODV uses the same three pass “scotch marine” heat exchanger as
the CT series boiler. The ODV series boiler is ideal for use in installations where a chimney is not
available.
The ODV boiler is not designed for use in gravity or “open” heating systems.

FAILURE TO VENT THIS BOILER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS
COULD CAUSE FLUE GAS TO ENTER THE BUILDING RESULTING IN SEVERE
PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH:
Do not attempt to vent this boiler with galvanized, PVC, or any other vent components •
not described in this manual
Do not obtain combustion air from within the building. •
Do not install a barometric damper or vacuum relief valve in the vent system of this •
boiler.

As with any oil appliance, certain adverse conditions can cause this boiler to operate at high
smoke levels. Since the ODV is vented through a wall, this can result in severe soot damage
to the side of the structure around the terminal. To minimize the risk of this:
• Follow these installation instructions exactly
• Oil burner must be set up by a qualied serviceman using combustion test instruments
• Use only the vent components supplied in the ODV vent kit
• Combustion air must be supplied from outdoors
• Follow the maintenance procedure in this manual
• Use only #2 fuel oil meeting ASTM D-396
