read and follow all the informaon provided in the

boxes marked DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and

NOTICE.

DANGER

Indicates an imminently hazardous situaon, which,

if not avoided, will result in death, serious injury or

substanal property damage.

WARNING

Indicates a potenally hazardous situaon, which,

if not avoided, could result in death, serious injury

or substanal property damage.

CAUTION

Indicates a potenally hazardous situaon, which, if

not avoided, may result in moderate or minor injury

or property damage.

NOTICE

Indicates specific instructions on installation,

operaon, or maintenance, which are important but

not related to personal injury hazards.

B. Disclaimers and Local Codes

Installaon must conform to the requirements of

the authority having jurisdicon. In the absence of

such requirements, installaon must conform to the

Naonal Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, and/

or CAN/CGA B149 Installaon Codes. Where required

by the authority having jurisdicon, the installaon

must conform to the Standard for Controls and Safety

Devices for Automacally Fired Boilers, ANSI/ ASME

CSD-1.

Installation, start-up, and maintenance of this

equipment can be hazardous and requires trained,

qualied installers and service personnel. Do not

install, operate, service or repair any components

of this equipment unless you are qualied and fully

understand all requirements and procedures. Trained

personnel refer to those who have completed Thermal

Solutions Service School training specific to this

product.

The boiler heat exchanger is manufactured and

stamped in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure

Vessel Code, Secon IV for a maximum allowable

C. Test and Inspecons

Upon the compleon of boiler installaon, nal air-

fuel adjustments are to be made by factory trained

service personnel. The emissions data and the O2

levels at minimum and maximum input rate can be

found on the back side of the front-boiler’s door,

which can be referenced in the future by the boiler

operator(s) when troubleshoong and servicing the

boiler. In addion, the following tests and inspecons

are made on each boiler at the factory to ensure it

meets our highest safety and funconality standards.

• ASME hydrostac test inspecon

• Electrical components inspecon

• Operang & eciency test

• Final engineering inspecon

• Crang inspecon

DANGER

DO NOT store or use gasoline or other ammable

vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other

appliance.

If you smell gas vapors, DO NOT try to operate any

appliance—DO NOT touch any electrical switch or

use any phone in the building. Immediately, call the

gas supplier from a remotely located phone. Follow

the gas supplier’s instrucons or if the supplier is

unavailable, contact the re department.

The customer should examine the equipment for

any damage. It is the responsibility of the installer

to ensure all parts supplied with the equipment are

ed in a correct and safe manner.

WARNING

This boiler requires regular maintenance and service

to operate safely. Follow the instrucons contained

in this manual.

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,

service, or maintenance can cause property damage,

personal injury or loss of life. Read and understand

the enre manual before aempng installaon,

start-up operaon, or service. Only an experienced,

skilled installer or service agency must perform

installaon and service.

WARNING

This boiler must be properly vented.

This boiler needs fresh air for safe operation

and must be installed so there are provisions for

adequate combuson and venlaon air.

A. Installaon Conformance

Installaon must conform to the requirements of

the authority having jurisdicon. In the absence of

such requirements, installaon must conform to the

Naonal Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, and/

or CAN/CGA B149 Installaon Codes. Where required

by the authority having jurisdicon, the installaon

must conform to the Standard for Controls and Safety

Devices for Automacally Fired Boilers, ANSI/ ASME

CSD-1.

B. Boiler Foundaon

Before uncrating, the boiler location should be

prepared. The boiler should set upon a good level

concrete oor. If the boiler is not level or the oor is

not in good condion, a concrete foundaon should

be built, the dimensions being larger than the outside

dimensions of the boiler base. A 4” high housekeeping

pad is suggested.

WARNING

Do not install boiler on combusble ooring.

C. Clearance and Serviceability

See Figure 4 and Table 2 for minimum clearances to

walls, ceilings, or obstrucons. These clearances are

intended as a general recommendaon only. Local

codes must be applied to specic installaons and

the minimum clearances established accordingly.

Provisions must also be made for service, accessibility

and clearance for piping and electrical connecons.

Do not obstruct combustion air and ventilation

openings with piping or any other construction.

All boilers must be installed in a space that is large

compared to the boiler.
