LP-542 REV. 7.16.15
Failure to follow all instructions can result in flue gas spillage and carbon
monoxide emissions, causing severe personal injury or death.
When removing an existing boiler, the following steps must be followed.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch
to determine if there is blockage, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies
that could cause an unsafe condition.
3. If practical, close all building doors, windows and all doors between the
common venting system and other spaces in the building. Turn on clothes
dryers and any boilers not connected to the common venting system. Turn
on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, at
maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close all fireplace
dampers.
4. Place in operation the boiler being inspected. Follow the lighting
instructions. Adjust the thermostat so the boiler will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main
burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle or smoke from a
cigarette.
6. After it has been determined that each boiler remaining connected to common venting system properly vents when tested as
outlined, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning boiler to their previous condition of use.
7. Any improper operation of the common venting system should be corrected so the installation conforms to the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1. When resizing any portion of the common venting system, the common venting system should be resized to
approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables in Appendix G in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1.
I. WALL-MOUNTING THE BOILER
The boiler must be installed on a wall that can bear its weight (more than 110 lbs. when fully plumbed and full of water). Installing the
boiler on a wall which cannot support its weight could result in property damage, personal injury, or death.
The boiler may be installed on any suitable internal wall (suitable sound-proofing may be required when installing onto a stud partition
wall).
This boiler is too heavy for one person to lift. It is highly recommended to install the boiler with two people. Use caution as to not drop
the boiler, which could damage the boiler and cause property damage and/or severe personal injury. Verify that the boiler is properly
and securely mounted before leaving unsupervised. Failure to comply with the above and properly mount the boiler could result in
substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
This wall mounting system is not seismic rated and should not be applied as such. Failure to comply with the above and properly mount
the boiler could result in substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
POSITIONING THE BOILER ON THE WALL
1. Attach the wall bracket on the location where you want to install the boiler. Ensure it is level and on stud (16” centers) before
proceeding.
2. Mark the four drill holes with a pencil or marker. Remove the wall bracket.
3. Drill four (4) holes using a 5/32 drill bit at the marked hole locations.
4. Mount the wall bracket to the wall with the four (4) included anchor bolts. Ensure the mounted bracket is level. See Figure 5A.
5. Align the boiler bracket grooves on the back of the boiler with the tongues on the wall bracket and hang the boiler on the
bracket. See Figure 5B.
