damage.
Glycol or antifreeze leaks around the boiler may
result in fire, causing severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.

Vent air from systemusingmanualvents.Airinthesystemwillinterfere
with circulation and cause heat distribution problems and noise.
3.
Inspect vent system thoroughly for signs of deterioration from cor-
rosion,physicaldamageorsagging.Inaddition—Checkforgas-tight
seal at every connection and seam.
Venting system must be sealed gas-tight to prevent
flue gas spillage and carbon monoxide emissions which
will result in severe personal injury or death.
