The Knight wall mount boiler gas
manifold and controls met safe lighting
and other performance criteria when the
boiler underwent tests specified in ANSI
Z21.13 – latest edition.
Failure to keep boiler area clear and free
of combustible materials, gasoline, and
other flammable liquids and vapors can
result in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage.
Installation must comply with:
• Local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws,
regulations, and ordinances.
• National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 – latest edition.
• Standard for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically
Fired Boilers, ANSI/ASME CSD-1, when required.
• National Electrical Code.
• For Canada only: B149.1 Installation Code, CSA C22.1
Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and any local codes.
Before locating the boiler, check:
1. Check for nearby connection to:
• System water piping
• Venting connections
• Gas supply piping
• Electrical power
2. Locate the appliance so that if water connections should
leak, water damage will not occur. When such locations
cannot be avoided, it is recommended that a suitable
drain pan, adequately drained, be installed under the
appliance. The pan must not restrict combustion air
flow. Under no circumstances is the manufacturer to be
held responsible for water damage in connection with
this appliance, or any of its components.
3. Check area around the boiler. Remove any combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.
4. The Knight wall mount boiler must be installed so
that gas control system components are protected from
dripping or spraying water or rain during operation or
service.
5. If a new boiler will replace an existing boiler, check for
and correct system problems, such as:
• System leaks causing oxygen corrosion or heat exchanger
cracks from hard water deposits.
• Incorrectly-sized expansion tank.
• Lack of freeze protection in boiler water causing system
and boiler to freeze and leak.
ƽ WARNING
This appliance is certified as an indoor
appliance. Do not install the appliance
outdoors or locate where the appliance will
be exposed to freezing temperatures or to
temperatures that exceed 100°F.
Failure to install the appliance indoors
could result in severe personal injury,
death, or substantial property damage.
Provide clearances:
Clearances from combustible materials
1. Hot water pipes—at least 1/4" from combustible materials.
2. Vent pipe – at least 1" from combustible materials.
3. See FIG.’s 1-1 and 1-2 on page 8 for other clearance
minimums.
Clearances for service access
1. See FIG.’s 1-1 and 1-2 on page 8 for recommended
service clearances. If you do not provide the minimum
clearances shown, it may not be possible to service the
boiler without removing it from the space.
Closet and alcove installations
This appliance requires a special venting
system. The vent connection to the
appliance is made of CPVC. Field supplied
vent fittings must be cemented to the CPVC
fitting on the boiler. Use only the vent
materials, primer, and cement specified in
the manual to make the vent connections.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in fire, personal injury, or death.
For closet and alcove installations as shown
in FIG.’s 1-1 and 1-2, CPVC or stainless
steel vent material must be used inside
the structure. The two ventilating air
openings shown in FIG. 1-1 are required
for this arrangement. Failure to follow
this warning could result in fire, personal
injury, or death.

A closet is any room the boiler is installed in which is less
than 79 cubic feet for WBN051 through WBN106 models,
104 cubic feet for WBN151 models, and 125 cubic feet for
WBN211 models.
An alcove is any room which meets the criteria for a closet
with the exception that it does not have a door.
Example: Room dimensions = 4 feet long, 4 feet wide, and
9 foot ceiling = 4 x 4 x 9 = 144 cubic feet. This would be
considered a closet for a Knight wall mount boiler.
