C. CHIMNEY / VENT AND DRAFT CONTROL
1. Draft Requir
ement – Minimum draft required in the vent system is -.03" to -.06" W.C. depending on boiler model, see Table 7.1 (Section 7). This draft is necessary to provide the necessary draft over fire of
-.01" to -.02" W.C. See discussion in paragraph 5 below regarding draft.
2. A barometric draft regulator must be used to provide adequate control of draft. Control should be capable of adjusting from approximately -0.02 to -0.08 inches of W.C. Follow manufacturer's instructions to locate and adjust the control.
3. Inspect the existing chimney or vent system. Make sure it is in good condition. Inspect chimney liner and repair or replace if necessary.
4. The vent system and installation must be in accordance with the current edition of the American National Standard ANSI/NFPA 211, "Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning Appliances," or applicable provisions of the local building codes. Typical minimum chimney size is 8' x 8', 15 feet high, unless otherwise allowed by code. If the vent system is not sized properly, the burner may not operate properly. This can cause poor combustion, sooting and odors to occur.
5. Background Information Regarding Draft:
Modern boilers operate with higher efficiencies than older boilers. Smaller flueways, as well as bars, pins and fins are designed into modern boilers to transfer as much heat as possible from the hot gases to the water or steam and prevent heat loss up the chimney. However, these design features result in higher pressure, or draft loss, in the boiler.
This draft loss must be taken into account when installing an oil boiler into a new or old chimney. New chimneys are less likely to have poor draft. However, they must have sufficient draft to support combustion. A -.06" draft is desirable and preferred. Older chimneys may require a replacement liner to have them perform well enough to support combustion.
For Example:
The above readings are "cold" readings (before the boiler and chimney are heated up).
Note also that the higher the firing rate on a unit which has multiple firing rates, the higher the draft required. For example, increasing the firing rate 1/4 gallon may increase the draft loss in a unit by approximately +.01".
D. INSTALLATION SURVEY
For new and existing installations, a Water Installation Survey or a Steam Installation Survey is available from P.B. Heat, LLC. The surveys will provide information on how the boiler works with your specific system and will provide an overview of boiler system operation in general.
You can also use this survey to locate system problems which will have to be corrected. To obtain copies of these Surveys, contact your PB Heat representative.
E. PLANNING THE LAYOUT
Prepare sketches and notes of the layout of the installation. Include boiler location, venting system, existing piping and wiring. Show existing equipment that may interfere with installation of new equipment.

3. On packaged boilers, open burner mounting plate (item 5) at this time to make certain the target wall (item 2) is seated in the back of the combustion chamber. (WBV-04/WV-05) Ceramic fiber blanket base liner (item 3) should be lying flat on bottom of combustion chamber between target wall and burner mounting plate. Close burner mounting plate.
4. See clearance information in Section I, "Preinstallation."
B. CONNECTING THE FLUE OUTLET
The WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models may be installed as a rear flue outlet unit or a top flue outlet unit. Packaged WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models are shipped as rear flue outlet and may be converted. The WV-05 boiler model is only available as a top flue outlet unit. On Knockdown boilers, the flue outlet components are located in the water trim or steam trim carton.
1. If converting to a top flue application on a packaged boiler, remove the large knockout in the jacket top panel.
2. On Knockdown boilers, install the flue collector coverplate and blanket seal (items 10 and 11) on top of the block assembly using four (4) 5/16" x 1-1/2" studs, nuts and washers provided.
3. Mount the flue collar adapter and rope seal (items 14 and item 12) to either the rear boiler section for a rear flue application, or to the flue collector cover plate (item 11) for a top flue application. Use 5/16" hex head bolts for rear flue out, and sheet metal screws for top flue outlet.
4. Attach the rear outlet cover plate (item 13) to the remaining unused opening using four (4) 5/16" bolts and washers provided.
C. JACKET ASSEMBLY (KNOCKDOWN
BOILERS)
1. If the boiler is to be installed with a rear flue outlet, remove the square knock-out in the back panel.
2. Attach back panel to bosses on middle of back section with two 1/4" x 3/8" machine screws provided. The back panel has two 5/16" diameter holes close to the center of the panel.
3. Attach both the left and right side panels to the back panel and secure with sheet metal screws.
4. Remove the burner mounting plate (item 5) and make certain the target wall (item 2) is in correct position in back of chamber. Ceramic fiber blanket liner (item 3, WBV-04 and WV-05) should be on floor of boiler in front of target wall.
5. Remove the two (2) knockouts in the front jacket panel which will allow clearance for the hinge. Place the front jacket panel on the block and attach the left and right side panels in the same manner as they are attached to the back panel.

A. PRESSURE TEST BLOCK ASSEMBLY
1. Make up cold water supply connection to the boiler.
2. Install pressure gauge or pressure-temperature gauge in tapping provided. See Boiler Dimensional drawing, Figures 7.1 and 7.2 (Section 7)
3. Plug all open tappings in the boiler and fill with water. Apply approximately thirty (30) psig pressure. Check to make certain that all joints and fittings are water tight.
4. After all joints and connections have been proven tight, remove cold water supply and plugs from all tappings that are to be used. See Figures 7.1 and 7.2 (Section 7) for tapping locations.
B. BOILER RETURN CLEARANCE
Return water piping must be done in such a manner to allow clearance of the door to the return piping when opening and closing the door. PB Heat, LLC suggests using a 1-1/4" tee, a 90° street elbow, and 1-1/4" x 5" pipe nipple in the return tapping before a vertical stand pipe is used.
C. WATER BOILER PIPING
1. Refer to the Water Installation Survey and Hydronics Institute Residential Hydronic Heating Installation/Design Guide for guidance.
2. The supply and return connections should be sized to suit the system. A 1-1/2" to 1-1/4" reducing coupling may be used where the system piping is 1-1/2".
3. The supply should be out the top of the back section and return to the bottom of the front section as shown in Figure 3.1. There is a 3/4" tapping in the top of the back section for air elimination.
4. When the return temperature from the system will be below 150°F on oil boilers for extended periods (heat pump systems, outdoor reset, snow melt, etc.), provide piping and controls to protect the boiler from condensation. Condensation will damage the boiler and will lead to shortened boiler life and maintenance problems.
5. If using a Partner indirect fired water heater or other, see Figure 3.6 for typical piping. Also refer to additional instructions supplied with the Partner.
6. If the boiler is to be used in conjunction with a refrigeration system, the chilled medium shall be piped in parallel with boiler and proper valves applied to prevent the chilled medium from entering the boiler. Refer to Figure 3.5.
7. If the boiler is connected to heating coils located in air handling units, the boiler piping system must be equipped with flow control valves or other automatic devices to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling cycle.
D. STEAM BOILER PIPING
1. Refer to the Steam Installation Survey and Hydronics Institute Residential Hydronic Heating Installation/Design Guide for assistance.
2. See table below for pipe sizing. The return loop from system should always enter equalizer through the Hartford Loop, 2" to 4" below normal water line. See Figure 3.2.
3. Use swing joints to attach header to avoid damage to the boiler due to thermal expansion and contraction of steam header pipe.
4. Pipe the steam header a minimum of 24" above the normal water line using swing joints to attach the risers into the steam header.

BURNER SETUP & BOILER OPERATION
A. BURNER INSTALLATION
1. The oil burner is supplied with a mounting flange fixed in position.
2. Mount the burner to the combustion chamber cover plate (item 5) with four (4) 5/16" studs and nuts provided.
3. Care must be taken when routing the oil lines so not to interfere with the opening and closing of the burner mounting plate. Flexible oil lines or flared copper disconnects with valves (when copper lines are used) may be installed to assure full opening of the burner mounting plate when servicing.
4. Oil burner specifications: For information pertinent to the oil burner such as
nozzle sizing, fuel supply piping, adjusting or servicing, refer to the charts in this section and the burner installation manual.
B. BURNER START-UP AND ADJUSTMENT
1. Burner should start automatically when thermostat is turned up and main boiler service switch is turned on. If burner does not start, check to be sure there is oil in the tank and push reset button on burner control:
Beckett: Square red button.
Carlin: Round red button.
Riello: Round red button inside clear flexible
cover on back of burner cover.
If burner still does not start, contact serviceman.
2. Adjust burner and barometric draft control for highest CO²(Maximum 13%) while maintaining a 0 Smoke and -.01 to -.02" W.C. draft overfire.
All adjustments must be made using suitable instruments such as found in a Bacharach Combustion Test Kit.
3. Burner and boiler can be shut down by turning down the thermostat and moving the main boiler service switch to the "off" position.
4. See burner manufacturer’s manual for further information regarding the burner.
C. CHECK BOILER CONTROLS
1. Limit and Operating Controls:
a. Lower the set point of each control until the
burner shuts down. Note that the system pressure (or temperature) corresponds to the desired set point.
b. Return the controls to the desired set point.
2. Low Water Cut-off (if used) - consult the manufacturer's instructions for the low water cut-off operational check procedure.
D. PURGE AIR FROM THE SYSTEM
(WATER BOILERS ONLY)
1. Purge the system using purge valves, isolating zones in the process or use system vents. Do not operate the pump(s) while purging. Pumps will hold air in the eye of the impeller.
2. Allow the system to reach 180°F and use manual vents, if installed, to remove any remaining air. Watch the pressure gauge as the system approaches 180°F. If the pressure exceeds the design operating pressure, check:
a. Fill valve pressure.
b. Expansion or compression tank operation and
sizing.
5. BURNER SETUP & BOILER OPERATION
Burn only #2 Fuel Oil in this appliance. Do not use gasoline, crankcase drainings or any oil containing gasoline.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start the burner when excess oil has accumulated, when the unit is full of vapor, or when the combustion chamber is very hot.
CAUTION
Two-pipe oil supply for Riello burner requires a separate kit. Order part #C7001026 from Riello dealer.
NOTICE
Be sure hi temp gasket is between the burner mounting flange and the combustion chamber cover plate.
NOTICE
Do not start the burner unless all cleanout doors are in place.
CAUTION

BURNER SETUP & BOILER OPERATION
E. CLEAN THE BOILER
(STEAM BOILERS ONLY)
1. Clean the boiler within one week after initial start-up. Cleaning will be more effective if boiler operates a day or two to loosen sediment and impurities in system.
2. Boiler must be cleaned to remove any accumulation of oil, grease, sludge, etc. in the system. These substances can cause foaming and surging of boiler water, producing an unstable water line and water carryover to system.
3. Connect a skim valve off the 1-1/4"NPT skim tapping on front of boiler. See WBV steam boiler figure 7.2 (Section 7) to locate skim tapping. Run a drain line off skim valve to a point of safe discharge.
4. Provide a means of supplying continuous fresh water to the boiler for the cleaning process.
5. Open the skim valve. Fill boiler until water begins to flow out of the valve.
6. Use common washing soda, such as Arm and Hammer Super Washing Soda. Mix 1/2 pound of soda with water in a 10 quart pail. Pour the mixture into the boiler through the safety relief valve tapping.
7. Turn on burner. Allow boiler water to heat up to just below steaming (180 - 200°F). Do not allow boiler to steam; steaming mixes up contaminants instead of floating them at surface.
8. Open make-up water valve to continually feed water to boiler. Adjust flow to maintain water temperature at 180 - 200° F.
9. Continue skimming boiler until water flowing from skim tapping flows clear. This will take some time, possibly several hours for a dirty system.
10. Turn off burner, close make-up water valve.
11. Drain boiler completely. Refill and drain one or two times to wash out all washing soda.
12. Remove skim valve and piping. Install 1-1/4"NPT plug in skim tapping.
Cleaning the boiler requires the use of very hot water and corrosive chemicals. Use care when handling to prevent injury.
WARNING
Do not leave boiler unattended while firing burner. Operating boiler with water below minimum permissible water level may fracture sections.
CAUTION
Do not allow make-up water to flow too fast. Excessive quantities of cold water may fracture sections.
CAUTION
If gauge glass becomes dirty more contaminants have worked loose in system. Repeat cleaning and skimming process as needed to clean system.

WARNING
Product Safety Information
Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product
This appliance contains materials made from refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). Airborne RCF, when inhaled, have been classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), as a possible carcinogen to humans. After the RCF materials have been exposed to temperatures above 1800°F, they can change into crystalline silica, which has been classified by the IARC as carcinogenic to humans. If particles become airborne during service or repair, inhalation of these particles may be hazardous to your health.
Avoid Breathing Fiber Particulates and Dust
Suppliers of RCF recommend the following precautions be taken when handling these materials:
Precautionar
y Measures: Provide adequate ventilation. Wear a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator. Wear long sleeved, loose fitting clothing and gloves to prevent skin contact. Wear eye goggles. Minimize airborne dust prior to handling and removal by water misting the material and avoiding unnecessary disturbance of materials. Wash work clothes separately from others. Rinse washer thoroughly after use. Discard RCF materials by sealing in an airtight plastic bag.
Fir
st Aid Procedures: Inhalation: If breathing difficulty or irritation occurs, move to a location with fresh clean air. Seek immediate medical attention if symptoms persist. Skin Contact:Wash affected area gently with a mild soap and warm water. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation persists. Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes while holding eyelids apart. Do not rub eyes. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation persists. Ingestion: Drink 1 to 2 glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical attention.

MAINTENANCE
A. GENERAL
1. Check pipes adjacent to cold walls or in unheated spaces. Insulate and tape them if necessary to be sure they can't freeze up. Keeping the water moving at all times will reduce the likelihood of freezing.
2. If there is considerable foreign matter in the boiler water, the boiler should be shut down and allowed to cool, then drained and thoroughly flushed out. Drain the boiler at the drain cock. Pipe the drain cock to a suitable drain or containment device (if antifreeze is used). Flush the system to remove remaining matter. If there is evidence that hard scale has formed on the internal surfaces, the boiler should be cleaned by chemical means as prescribed by a qualified water treatment specialist.
3. There must be no signs of continuous wetness at the chimney. If signs of continuous wetness are observed, a qualified service agency must be consulted to modify the vent configuration to prevent the formation of condensate, which may damage the vent pipe.
B. DAILY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER
OPERATING)
Daily boiler observation can be performed by the owner. If any potential problems are found, a qualified installer or service technician/agency must be notified.
1. Remove any combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids and substances that generated flammable vapors from the area where the boiler is contained. Make certain that the boiler area has ample air for combustion and ventilation and that there are no obstructions to the free flow of air to and from the boiler.
2. Observe general boiler conditions (unusual noises, vibrations, etc.)
3. Observe operating temperature and/or pressure gauge on the boiler. Boiler pressure should never be higher than 5 psi below the rating shown on the safety relief valve. The valve rating can be found on the top of the safety relief valve. Boiler temperature should never be higher than 250°F.
4. Check for water leaks in boiler and system piping.
C. WEEKLY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER
OPERATING)
1. Flush float-type low-water cut-off (if used) to remove sediment from the float bowl as stated in the manufacturer's instructions.
D. MAINTENANCE OF SAFETY RELIEF
VALVE
1. Check function and maintain safety relief valve as specified by manufacturer, typically every other month or every month. per the instructions on the tag on the safety relief valve.
E. MONTHLY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER
OPERATING)
1. Check boiler room floor drains for proper functioning.
2. Test probe type low-water cut-off (if used) by using the Push-to-Test Button.
3. Test limit by lowering the limit set point until the burner shuts down. When proper operation is confirmed, return the set point to original setting.
4. Follow additional instructions in the Burner Manual for proving the burner component operation.
F. MAINTENANCE – ANNUAL
TO CLEAN:
1. Remove top jacket panel and flue collector cover plate, Item 11 (Figure 2.1 or 2.2).
2. To thoroughly clean the boiler it must be brushed down from the top. Alternatively, for limited space or minimum clearance to combustible installations, cleaning the heat exchanger from the combustion chamber side is acceptable. If unit is extremely dirty, it may be necessary to brush from both directions. The target wall is made of a soft ceramic fiber. Care must be taken not to damage this material during cleaning.
Disconnect all power to the burner before accessing combustion chamber.
WARNING
Turn off power to boiler before adjusting limit control.
CAUTION
Entire heating system, including boiler, burner and venting system, must be inspected at least once a year by a qualified heating professional. Boiler is to be cleaned at least once a year.
NOTICE
Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Improper or dangerous operation may result. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the boiler and to replace any part of the control system and any control which has been under water.
WARNING

MAINTENANCE
3. Remove any scale or soot from the combustion chamber area by vacuum cleaning or any other available means.
4. Replace oil burner and flue collector cover plate making sure all gaskets are in place.
5. Replace jacket top panel.
6. Inspect venting system.
G. IF A LONG SHUTDOWN IS REQUIRED
1. To take boiler out of service if the boiler and system are not to be used when temperatures are below freezing:
a. Drain the boiler and system completely and shut
off make-up water supply.
b. Open main line power disconnect switch to
boiler. Remove the fuses or secure the switch so that the power cannot be turned on accidentally.
2. Be certain that the boiler and system are refilled before returning to service.
Always keep the manual fuel supply valve shut off if the burner is shut down for an extended period of time.
CAUTION
All cover plates, enclosures, and guards must be maintained in place at all times, except during maintenance and servicing.
NOTICE
Burner mounting plate must be opened to facilitate this operation.
