Warnings
In addition to preventing ingestion of chemical contaminants, ensure air intake
terminals are not installed in locations where contamination might occur due to
ingestion of particulate foreign material (dust, dirt and debris).
Configure intake air openings, so that rain or other forms of moisture cannot enter the
air intake piping system. Otherwise serious damage to the boiler may result.
