flue; required to have monthly oil feed systems cleaned; required to have cleaning done by persons
using proper protective clothing like masks and gloves; required to have only qualified service
people adjust controls; requires a oil feed valve near the tank to be closed when burner is not being
used over extended periods; to be installed by a qualified installer, one who is engaged in,
responsible for or thoroughly familiar with the permitting, installation and operation of oil-fired
appliances, who is experienced in such work and is familiar with the precautions required, and who
