!
NOTICE
Boiler rated at 100 psig maximum allowable working
pressure. Boiler provided with 30 psig safety relief
valve. Field source safety relief valve for system
pressures greater than 30 psig. Temperature-
pressure gauge provided with boiler is satisfactory
for 30-50 psig operation. Replace temperature-
pressure gauge for system pressure over 50 psig.
Scale on dial must be graduated to not less than 1½
nor more than 3½ time safety relief valve pressure
settings.
• Do not install shutoff valve between boiler and safety
relief valve.
• Systems with automatic ll valves require back ow
prevention device.
• Install discharge piping from safety relief valve. See
Warning, Page 8.
• When boiler is connected to heating system utilizing
multiple zoned circulators, each circulator must be
supplied with ow control valve to prevent gravity
circulation.
• Hot water boilers and system must be lled with water
and maintained to minimum pressure of 12 psi.
• Bypass piping is an option which gives ability to adjust
the supply boiler water temperature to t the system or
condition of installation. This method of piping, however,
is not typically required for baseboard heating systems.
Typical installations where bypass piping is used are as
follows:
A. This method is used to protect boilers from
condensation forming due to low temperature
return water. Generally noticed in large converted
gravity systems or other large water volume
systems. Figures 3 & 4, Page 11.
B. These methods are used to protect systems using
radiant panels and the material they are encased
in from high temperature supply water from the
boiler and protect boiler from condensation.
NOTE#1: When using bypass piping, adjust valves V1 & V2
until desired system temperature is obtained.
NOTE#2: Bypass loop must be same size piping as the
supply and return piping.
• Installation using circulators and zone valves are shown
in Figures 3-8 . For further piping information refer to
AHRI Installation and Piping Guide.
• For zone controls and indirect hot water, refer to
appropriate manufacturer instructions.
• For Low Water Cutoff, see Dimensions page 5 for

When existing boiler is removed from a common venting
system, the system is likely to be too large for the proper
venting of the appliances still connected to it.
Removal Of Boiler From Venting System
At the time of removal of an existing boiler, the following
steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining
connected to the common venting system placed in
operation, while the other appliances remaining connected
to the common venting system are not in operation.
1. Seal any unused opening in the common venting
system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch and determine there is no blockage or
restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deciencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which the
appliances remaining connected to the common venting
system are located and other spaces of the building.
Turn on clothes dryers and any other appliance not
connected to the common venting system. Turn on
any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom
exhausts, so they operate at maximum speed. Do
not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close replace
dampers.
4. Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow
the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliance
will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after
5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the ame of
a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or
pipe.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance
remaining connected to a common venting system
properly vents when tested as outlined above, return
doors, windows, exhaust fans, replace dampers and
any other gas burning appliances to their previous
condition of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting system
should be corrected so the installation conforms with
the National Fuel gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54,
and/or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CAN/CSA B149.1. When re-sizing any portion of the
common venting system, the common venting system
should be re-sized to approach the minimum size
determined using the appropriate tables in Chapter 13
of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54,
and/or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CAN/CSA B149.1.
1. Vent pipe must slope upward from boiler not less then
¼ inch per 1 foot to the vent terminal.
2. Horizontal portions of venting system shall be
supported rigidly every 5 feet and at elbows. No portion
of vent pipe should have any dips or sags.
3. Boiler series is classied as a Category I. Vent
installation shall be in accordance with "Venting of
Equipment," of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, or "Venting Systems and Air Supply
for Appliances," of the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1, or applicable
provisions of the local building codes.
4. Inspect chimney. Verify chimney is constructed
according to NFPA 211. Vent or vent connector shall
be Type B or metal pipe having resistance to heat and
corrosion not less than that of galvanized sheet steel or
aluminum not less than 0.016 inch thick (No. 28 Ga).
5. Connect ue pipe from draft hood to chimney. Bolt or
screw joints together to avoid sags. Flue pipe should
not extend beyond inside wall of chimney. Do not
install manual damper in ue pipe or reduce size of
ue outlet except as provided by the latest revision of
ANSI Z223.13 or CAN/CSA B149.1. Protect combustible
ceiling and walls near ue pipe with reproof insulation.
Where two or more appliances vent into a common
ue, the area of the common ue must be at least
equal to the area of the largest ue plus 50 percent of
the area of each additional ue.

CAUTION
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use
any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a
neighbor’s phone. Follow gas supplier’s
instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the re
department.
!General
• Use piping materials and joining methods acceptable
to authority having jurisdiction. In absence of such
requirements:
• USA - National Fuel gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
• Canada - Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
CAN/CSA B149.1
• Size and install gas piping system to provide sufcient
gas supply to meet maximum input at not less than
minimum supply pressure. See Table 3.
• Support piping with hooks straps, bands, brackets,
hangers, or building structure components to prevent or
dampen excessive vibrations and prevent strain on gas
connection. Boiler will not support piping weight.
• Use thread (joint) compound (pipe dope) suitable for
liqueed petroleum gas.
• Install eld sourced manual main shutoff valve, ground
joint union, and sediment trap upstream of gas valve.
See Figure 11.

Min. Supply Pressure 5" w.c. 11" w.c.
Max. Supply Pressure 13.5" w.c. 13.5" w.c.
Manifold Pressure 3.5" w.c. 10.5" w.c.
DANGER
Fire Hazard. Do not use matches, candles, open
ames, or other methods providing ignition source.
Failure to comply will result in death or serious
injury.
!
Leak Check Gas Piping
Pressure test boiler and gas connection before placing
boiler in operation.
• Pressure test over 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa). Disconnect
boiler and its individual gas shutoff valve from gas
supply system.
• Pressure test at 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa) or less. Isolate
boiler from gas supply system by closing manual gas
shutoff valve.
• Locate leakage using gas detector, noncorrosive
detection uid, or other leak detection method
acceptable to authority having jurisdiction. Do not
use matches, candles, open ames, or other methods
providing ignition source.
• Correct leaks immediately and retest.
