Slant/Fin Oil-Fired Boilers Boiler User Manual


 
Installation is faster, service is easier
with these special Intrepid features.
Your Slant/Fin heating contractor can usually install a new Intrepid boiler in about a
day. Its compact size and removable burner door allows it to fit through doors and
stairwells with ease. A strong wooden crate protects
the Intrepid from factory to basement. Its low profile,
only 32 inches high, simplifies installation. Packaged
models come pre-wired with the burner mounted,
ready for final setup. Controls are mounted up front for
easy access. The circulator is prewired and bolted to
the skid for shipping. Wiring is long enough for supply
side or return mounting. For your convenience, all
models include front and rear return tappings. All
tappings are sized and positioned to give the installer
flexibility in connecting the Intrepid boiler to your heating
system.
Burner door swings open, lifts off
Intrepid’s extra large door swings open for routine servicing. It also lifts
off, making it easy to fit the boiler through tight spaces and down stairs.
For added safety, a disconnect plug automatically cuts power to the
burner when the door is opened.
A generous 3" supply
tapping on steam models
helps produce drier steam,
resulting in quieter operation
of your steam heating
system.
No furnace cement is required with Intrepid’s
speedy-service flue collector. Can be quickly
and repeatedly removed and pressed back into
place in a channel containing a replaceable
sealing strip. No furnace cement required. Flue
collector locks positively tight with a single wing
nut. Reduces cleaning time dramatically.

Top cleanout is easy.
With the flue collector removed, it's easy to reach all of the heat
exchanger surfaces with a flue brush for routine cleaning. Since the
refractory wall is recessed, it is protected from damage by the flue brush
during cleaning.The spacing between Intrepid's section walls and the
arrangement of thermal pins permit fast effective cleaning.
Easy access, higher output tankless heater coil.
Tankless cover plate is mounted on cast-iron extended flange which
protrudes 2 inches through front of boiler jacket. Provides constant
visibility for easy inspection. Out-in-front bolts permit easy removal of
seal or coil. Deeper well accommodates longer coil to maximize
output of domestic hot water.
Long-life stainless steel cap nuts.
Ordinary bolts in the domestic hot water cover plate can deteriorate in
time and make routine maintenance a major repair should the bolt
heads snap off. The stainless steel studs and cap nuts used on
Intrepid’s tankless water heater resist corrosion, helping to keep long
term maintenance costs to a minimum.
