Upon receiving the boiler, inspect it for signs of ship-
ping damage.  Pay particular attention to the control 
panel on the top of the boiler and the components 
mounted on the back, which may show damage from 
mishandling. 

The exterior cabinet must be reasonably air-tight for 
the burner to operate correctly.  Leaks caused by dents 
in the sheet metal or panels out of position may cause 
the limit controls to show Low Air.  Check to be sure 
that the mixer core in the top burner is centered and 
has not moved in shipment; (see Section 5.2, "Clean-
ing the Burner" for proper location).  Verify that the 
total number of pieces shown on the packing slip 
agrees with those actually received. 
 
Important: Note any damage or shortage on the 
freight bill and immediately notify the carrier.  File 
all claims for shortage or damage with the carrier. 

 

If the boiler is not installed immediately, it must be 
stored in a location adequately protected from the 
weather, preferably indoors.  If this is not possible, 
then it should remain in the shipping container and be 
covered by a tarpaulin or other waterproof covering. 

Note: Controls and other equipment that are damaged 
or fail due to weather exposure are not covered by 
warranty.

 Boiler with standard compo-

nents and many options complies with American Na-
tional Standard/CSA Standard ANSI Z21.13/CSA 4.9, 
latest edition, Gas-Fired Low Pressure Steam and Hot 
Water Boilers.  The heat exchanger is constructed and 
stamped in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pres-
sure Vessel Code, Section IV for 160 psig maximum 
operating pressure and/or 250º F maximum operating 

temperature.  Other codes or approvals which apply 
will be labeled on the boiler. 

Installation of the boiler must conform to all the re-
quirements of all national, state and local codes estab-
lished by the authorities having jurisdiction or, in the 
absence of such requirements, in the U.S. to the Na-
tional Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, latest 
edition.  In Canada, the equipment shall be installed in 
accordance with the current Installation Code for Gas 
Burning Appliances and Equipment, CAN/CGA-
B.149, and applicable Provincial Regulations for the 
class, which should be carefully followed in all cases.  
Authorities having jurisdiction should be consulted 
before installations are made. 

Where required by local codes, the installation must 
conform to American Society of Mechanical Engi-
neers Safety Code for Controls and Safety Devices for 
Automatically Fired Boilers (ASME CSD-1). 

In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (a) this unit 
must be installed by a licensed pipe fitter / plumber, 
(b) field installed gas cocks must be "T" handle type, 
and (c) piping of condensate shall conform with the 
State Plumbing Code. 

 

 

Provide a firm, level foundation, preferably of con-
crete. 
 
Note: The boiler may be installed on a combustible 
floor; however, the boiler must never be installed on 
carpeting. 

 

The boiler must be level to function properly.  To as-
sist in leveling the boiler, the four (4) leg bolts (1/2"- 
NC) holding the boiler to the shipping skid must be 
reinstalled in the threaded legs on the bottom.  The 
adjustable legs are also necessary to provide adequate 
floor clearance and prevent distortion on the cabinet, 
(twisting, etc.) in addition to leveling.
