Boiler area
1. Verify that boiler area is free of any combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
2. Verify that boiler area (and air intake) is free of any of the contaminants listed on page 13

removed. If they cannot be removed, install combustion air piping to the boiler in accordance
with the appropriate venting supplement.

open and unobstructed. Check operation and wiring of automatic combustion air dampers,
if used.
2. Verify that boiler vent discharge and air intake are clean and free of obstructions.
Flue gas vent system (and air inlet piping)
1. Visually inspect entire flue gas venting system (and air piping, if installed) for
blockage, deterioration or leakage. Repair any joints that show signs of leakage in accordance
with vent manufacturers instructions. When air is ducted to boiler, verify that air inlet hose is
connected and properly sealed.
Failure to inspect for the above conditions and have them repaired can
result in severe personal injury or death.
