GOLD CGs Gas-Fired Water Boiler — Boiler Manual
Please read before proceeding
Installer
Read  all  instructions  before  in-
stalling.
Follow all instructions in
proper  order  to  prevent  personal
injury or death.
•  Also refer to CGs
Venting Supplements
.
•  Consider
piping and installation
when determining
boiler location.
•  Any
claims for damage or shortage in shipment
must be filed immediately against the transportation
company by the consignee.
User
This  manual  is  for  use  only  by  your  qualified 
heating installer/service technician.
•  Please refer to the
User’s Information Manual
for
your reference.
•  We  recommend  regular
service  by  a  qualified 
service technician, at least annually
.
When calling or writing about the boiler— Please have the boiler model number from the
boiler rating label and the CP number from the boiler jacket. You may list the CP number in
the space provided on the Installation and service certificate found on page 30.
The  boiler  contains  ceramic  fiber  and  fiberglass  materials.  Use  care  when  handling  these
materials per instructions on page 64 of this manual. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury.
Failure to adhere to the guidelines on this page can result in severe personal injury, death
or substantial property damage.
•  Continual  fresh  makeup  water  will  reduce
boiler life. Mineral buildup in sections reduces
heat transfer, overheats cast iron, and causes
section failure. Addition of oxygen and other
gases can cause internal corrosion. Leaks in
boiler or piping must be repaired at once to
prevent makeup water.
•  Do not add cold water to hot boiler. Thermal
shock can cause sections to crack.
Glycol — potential fire hazard —
All  glycol  is  flammable  when  exposed  to  high
temperatures. If glycol is allowed to accumulate
in  or  around  the  boiler  or  any  other  potential
ignition  source,  a  fire  can  develop.  In  order  to
prevent  potential  severe  personal  injury,  death
or substantial property damage from fire and/or
structural damage:
•  Never store glycol of any kind near the boiler
or any potential ignition source.
•  Monitor  and  inspect  the  system  and  boiler
regularly  for  leakage.  Repair  any  leaks  im-
mediately  to  prevent  possible  accumulation
of glycol.
•  Never use automotive antifreeze or ethylene
glycol in the system. Using these glycols can
lead  to  hazardous  leakage  of  glycol  in  the
boiler system.
When servicing boiler —
•  To avoid electric shock, disconnect electrical supply
before performing maintenance.
•  To  avoid  severe  burns,  allow  boiler  to  cool  before
performing maintenance.
Boiler operation —
•  Do not block flow of combustion or ventilation air
to boiler.
•  Should overheating occur or gas supply fail to shut
off, do not turn off or disconnect electrical supply to
circulator. Instead, shut off the gas supply at a location
external to the appliance.
•  Do  not  use  this  boiler  if  any  part  has  been  under
water.  Immediately  call  a  qualified  service  techni-
cian to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of
the control system and any gas control that has been
under water.
Boiler water —
•  Do  not  use  petroleum-based  cleaning  or  sealing
compounds in boiler system. Water seal deterioration
will occur, causing leakage between sections. This can
result in substantial property damage.
•  Do not use “homemade cures” or “boiler patent medi-
cines”.  Serious  damage  to  boiler,  personnel  and/or
property may result.
