Figure 1 - Boiler Jackets

These low pressure gas-red hot water boilers are design certied by CSA International, for use with natural and propane

gases.

Boilers are constructed and hydrostatically tested for maximum working pressure of 50 psi (pounds per square inch)

in accordance with A.S.M.E. (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section IV

Standards for heating boilers.

Boilers are certied in accordance with ANSI (American National Standards Institute) Z21.13 standards as gas-red, direct

vent, condensing, hot water boilers.

Heating Capacity indicates amount of heat available after subtracting losses up the stack. Most of this heat is available

to heat water. Small portion is heat loss from jacket and surfaces of boiler, it is assumed this heat stays in the structure.

Net AHRI Rating represents portion of remaining heat applied to heat radiation or terminal units (i.e. Finned tube

baseboard, cast iron radiators, radiant oor, etc.). Difference between Heating Capacity and Net AHRI Rating, called piping

and pickup allowance, establishes reserve for heating volume of water in the system and offsetting heat losses from

piping. Net AHRI Ratings shown are based on piping and pickup factor of 1.15. Net AHRI Rating of boiler selected should

be greater than or equal to calculated peak heating load (heat loss) for building or area(s) served by boiler and associated

hot water heating systems. Manufacturer should be consulted before selecting boiler for installations having unusual

piping and pickup requirements.

1 - BOILER RATINGS & CAPACITIES

This is gas-red direct vent cast aluminum hot water boiler. Cast aluminum heat exchanger means better heat transfer

and thermal storage than similarly sized cast iron boilers, which results in higher efciency. Heating system water

absorbs large amounts of heat from cast aluminum heat exchanger, cooling ue gases and causing condensation. Sealed

combustion, premix gas burner, and low ame temperature means drastically reduced CO and NOx emissions, which

contribute to cleaner and healthier environment.

Appliance, unlike normal residential atmospheric and induced draft units, takes its combustion air directly from outdoors

(sealed combustion) and does not compete with building occupants for fresh air. Sealed combustion (also known as “direct

vent”) is safest and best way to obtain plenty of clean combustion air. Forced draft fan draws in outside combustion air to

mix with gas, which ows into pre-mix burner and combusts. Fan forces resulting ue gases from boiler unit and provides

positive removal of ue gases from building through choice of PVC, CPVC or PP vent pipes. (Refer to Table 7 page 18 for

material limitations.)

2 - SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION

Installers

-Follow local regulations with respect to

installation of CO (Carbon Monoxide) Detectors. Follow

maintenance recommendations in this manual. See

“Maintenance And Cleaning” on page 48.

Boiler Sizing

• Verify you have selected the boiler with proper capacity

before continuing installation. AHRI Rating of boiler

selected should be greater than or equal to calculated

peak heating load (heat loss) for building or area(s) served

by boiler and associated hot water heating systems. See

“Boiler Ratings & Capacities” on page 3.

• Heat loss calculations should be based on approved

industry methods.

Considerations For Boiler Location

Before selecting boiler location, consider following.

• Supplied with correct type of gas (natural gas or

propane).

• Connected to suitable combustion air intake piping

system to supply correct amount of fresh (outdoor) air

for combustion. See “Combustion Air And Vent Pipe” on

page 15.

• Connected to suitable venting system to remove

hazardous products of gas combustion. See “Combustion

Air And Vent Pipe” on page 15.

• Connected to suitable hot water heating system.

• Supplied with suitable electrical supply for all boiler

motors and controls.

• Connected to properly located thermostat or operating

control. (Not included with boiler)

WARNING

Fire hazard. Do not install boiler on carpeting.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in

death or serious injury.

• Placed on level surface (DO NOT install on carpeting)

• Condensate drain line must be pitched down to oor

drain or external condensate pump with reservoir at ¼”

per foot (21 mm/m) (wood frame or blocks may be used

to raise boiler).

WARNING

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service

or maintenance could result in death or serious

injury.

Locating The Boiler

Select level location, central to piping systems served

and close to vent and air intake terminals as possible.

Manufacture recommended accessibility clearances, if

more stringent (i.e. larger clearances) than required

re protection clearances, must be used for boiler

installation. Accessibility clearances may be achieved

with use of removable walls or partitions.

Combustible clearances shown in Table 4 indicate

required clearances per CSA listing. Minimum 1”

(25 mm) clearance must be maintained between

combustible construction and each of the right, top

and back surfaces of boiler. Minimum 8” (203 mm)

clearance is required on left side, to allow room for inlet

air pipe. 18” (457 mm) clearance must be maintained

at front where passage is required for cleaning or

servicing, inspection or replacement of any parts

that normally require such attention. Allow 24” (610

mm) at front and left side and 8” (203 mm) at top for

servicing. No combustible clearances are required to

venting or combustion air intake piping.

Keep boiler area clean of debris and free of ammable

and combustible materials, liquids and vapors.

Install equipment in location which facilitates operation

of venting and combustion air intake piping systems as

described in this manual.

Advise owner to keep venting and combustion air

intake passages free of obstructions. Both venting

and combustion air intake piping systems connected

to outdoors must permit ow through piping systems

without restrictions for boiler to operate.

Boiler shall be installed such that automatic gas

ignition system components are protected from water

(dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during operation and

service (circulator replacement, condensate trap,

control replacement, etc.).

Boiler must be located where ambient temperatures

(minimum possible room temperatures where boiler

is installed assuming boiler is not in operation and

therefore contributes no heat to space) are always

above freezing temperature.

If boiler is not level condensate drain lines will not

function properly. Adjustable feet are located on boiler

to make up for minor surface irregularities or tilt.

10.

Wood frame or blocks may be used to raise boiler

to maintain drain pitch or to be above external

condensate pump reservoir.

11.

Provide means for condensate drainage.

3 - LOCATING THE BOILER

Removal Of Existing Boiler From Common Vent

System

When an existing boiler is removed from a common

venting system, the common venting system is likely to be

too large for proper venting of the appliances remaining

connected to it. 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.

Seal any unused openings in the common venting

system.

Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and

horizontal pitch and determine there is no blockage

or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deciencies

which could cause an unsafe condition.

In so far 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 dryer and any appliance not connected

to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust

fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhaust, so

they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a

summer exhaust fan. Close re dampers.

Place in operation appliance being inspected. Follow

lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so appliances

operate continuously.

Test for spillage at draft hood relief opening after 5

minutes of main burner operation. Use ame of match

or candle, or smoke from cigarette, cigar or pipe.

After it has been determined each appliance remaining

connected to common venting system properly vents

when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows,

exhaust fans and any other gas-burning appliance to

their previous condition.

Any improper operation of common venting system

should be corrected so installation conforms with the

National Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. When re-

sizing any portion of common venting system, common

venting system should be re-sized to approach

minimum size as determined using appropriate tables

in chapter 13 of the National Fuel Code, ANSI Z223.1/

NFPA 54.

Placing The Boiler

• Place boiler to provide most direct connections to

combustion air, vent, and system piping as possible.

• Place crated boiler as close to selected location as

possible and uncrate boiler.

• Move uncrated boiler into position with appliance dolly

or 2-wheel hand truck.

• Insert dolly or hand truck under right hand side of

boiler. It is possible to slide boiler for short distance on

smooth oor or surface.

3 - LOCATING THE BOILER

General Instructions

Packaged boiler is furnished with iron piping in front

boiler section for supply and return connections.

Install all of radiation units (panels, radiators,

baseboard, or tubing) and supply and return mains

rst, when installation of boiler is for new heating

system.

After installation of all heating system piping and

components; make nal connection of system piping to

boiler.

Hot water boiler installed above radiation level or

as required by authority having jurisdiction must be

equipped with low water cut off device (included with

boiler).

Periodic inspection is necessary, as is ushing of oat

type devices, per low water cut off manufacturers

specic instructions.

Proper water ow through any boiler is essential to

proper operation and long life. Simple single or two

zone systems with adequate ow do not require

primary secondary piping. Systems with more zones or

low ow require primary secondary piping.

4 - NEAR BOILER PIPING

Dielectric Isolation

Two (2) 1-1/4” X 1-1/4” female to female dielectric

isolation unions are supplied. Install dielectric isolation

unions at boiler supply line and return line. Install

isolation ttings nearest boiler prior to system piping

connections.

Water contaminants that cause low or high pH makes

corrosion more likely.

Do not install copper supply and return piping directly

into aluminum boiler section castings due to galvanic

corrosion between dissimilar metals.

Use iron, steel bushings or pipe connectors between

copper system piping and boiler to make nal

connection to boiler.

Use of dielectric unions is required, supplied with boiler,

the purpose is to electrically insulate aluminum boiler

from remainder of the system.
