Large space
The boiler space must be at least as big as shown in
Figure 1 to qualify as a
large space.
• Air openings to a large space can be per manual
Section
Ie.
• The space will probably be large enough for most
service and maintenance to be done in place.
Small space
You can install the boiler in a space smaller than Figure 1,
but no smaller than shown in Figure 2 — this is called a
small space installation.
• Air openings to a small space must provide at least 1
square inch free area for every 1,000 Btuh of boiler
input (at least 75 sq. in. for GV-3, 105 sq. in. for GV-
4, 140 sq. in. for GV-5 or 175 sq. in. for GV-6). The air
opening free area must be at least this size even if the
boiler uses outside air.
• Air openings have to be within 6 inches of the floor
and 6 inches of the ceiling of the space to prevent
overheating of boiler internal components.
• Provide at least screwdriver clearance to jacket front
panel screws for removal of front panel for inspection
and minor service.
• The boiler cannot be serviced in place. Pipe the
boiler with unions and isolation valves so it can be
slid out of the space and serviced in an adjacent area.
The space has to be equipped with a door so boiler
can be accessed, unpiped and removed.
• No other appliance or air handler can be installed in
the same space or share its air supply.

air opening sizing.
Ic
Install the boiler so control system
components are protected from
dripping or spraying water or
rain
during operation. Allowing
these components to become wet
could cause a boiler failure, resulting
in severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.
