outside. See Figure 2.
below, to maintain adequate combustion air.
1.
Ventilation of boiler room must be adequate enough to
provide sufcient air to properly support combustion
and venting.
2.
When the boiler is located in an unconned space in a
building of conventional construction frame, masonry
or metal, inltration normally is adequate to provide
air for combustion and ventilation. However, in any building which has been altered to conserve energy
or to minimize inltration, the boiler area should be considered as a conned space. If there is any
doubt, install air supply provisions for combustion and ventilation in accordance with requirements of authority having juridiction, or in absence of such requirements, Air for Combustion and Ventilation of the NFPA 31.
3.
When the boiler is installed in an unconned space,
in a building of unusually tight construction, air for combustion and room ventilation must be obtained from outdoors or from spaces freely communicating with the outdoors. A permanent opening or openings having a total free area of not less than 1 square inch per 5,000 BTU per hour of total input rating of all appliances shall be provided. Ducts may be used to convey make-up air from the outdoors and shall have the same cross-sectional area of the openings to which they are connected.

VENTILATION AND COMBUSTION AIR
5.
When the boiler is installed in a conned space and all air is provided from the outdoors, the conned
space shall be provided with two permanent openings, one commencing within 12 inches from the top and one commencing 12 inches from the bottom of the enclosure. The openings shall communicate directly, or by ducts, with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that freely communicate with the outdoors. One of the following methods must be used to provide adequate air for ventilation and combustion. A. When directly communicating with the outdoors,
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 4,000 BTU per hour of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. See Figure 3.
B. When communicating with the outdoors by means
of vertical ducts, each opening shall have a mini­mum free area 1 square inch per 4,000 BTU per hour of total input rating of all appliances in the enclosed space. See Figure 4.
C. If horizontal ducts are used, each opening shall
have a minimum free area 1 square inch per 2,000 BTU per hour total input rating of all appliances in the enclosed space. See Figure 5.
D. When ducts are used, they shall be of the same
cross sectional area as the free area of the area of the openings to which they connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts shall not be less than 3 inches.
6.
In calculating free area using louvers, grills or screens for the above, consideration shall be given to their blocking effect. Screens used shall not be smaller than 1/4 inch mesh. If the free area through a design of louver or grill is known, it should be used in calculating the size opening required to provide the free area
specied. If the design and free area is not known, it
may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20-25% free area and metal louvers and grills will have 60-75%
free area. Louvers and grills shall be xed in the open
position or interlocked with the boiler so that they are opened automatically during boiler operation.

CONNECTING SUPPLY AND RETURN PIPING
Circulators in the following illustrations are mounted on system supply side, mounting on system return side is also acceptable practice.
Figure 6 Boiler Used In Connection With Refrigerated System
Figure 7 Bypass Piping Typically Used With Baseboard Heating
1.
Connect supply and return piping as suggested in Figure 6. When the boiler is used in connection with refrigerated systems: A. Chilled medium MUST BE IN PARALLEL with
boiler.
B. Use appropriate valves to prevent chilled medium
from entering heating boiler.
2.
During the heating cycle open valves A and B, close valves C and D.

Page 9
CONNECTING SUPPLY AND RETURN PIPING
3.
During heating cooling cycle open valves C and D, close valves A and B.
A. Maintain a minimum clearance of one (1") inch to
hot water pipes. In air handling units where they may be exposed to refrigerated air circulation, the
boiler piping system MUST be supplied with ow
control valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling cycle.
4.
Hot water boilers installed above radiation level must be provided with a low water device either as part of the boiler or at the time of boiler installation.
5.
When a boiler is connected to a heating system that utilizes multiple zoned circulators, each circulator must
be supplied with a ow control valve to prevent gravity
circulation.
* Reduced pressure back ow preventer must be
present under provisions required by the Environmental Protection Agency, (EPA).
6.
Bypass piping is an option which gives the ability to
adjust the supply boiler water temperature to t the
system or condition of the installation. Although, this method of piping is not typically required for baseboard heating systems.
A. This method is used to protect systems using
radiant panels and the material they are encased in from high temperature supply water from the boiler. See Figure 7, page 7.
B. This method is used to protect boilers from
condensate forming due to low temperature return water. Generally noticed in large converted gravity systems or other large water volume systems. See Figure 8.
C. This method is used to protect boilers from
condensate forming as well as protecting the heating system from high water temperature. See Figure 9, page 9.
7.
Note: When using bypass piping, adjust valves A and B until desired system temperature is obtained.
8.
Bypass loop piping must be same size piping for supply and return.
9.
Typical installation using circulators is shown in Figure 10, page 9.
10.
Typical installation using zone valves is shown in Figure 11, page 10.

VENTING SYSTEM INSPECTION & INSTALLATION
WARNING
!
Figure 15 Chimney Installation
Boiler and venting installations shall be performed
by a qualied expert and in accordance with the
appropriate manual. Installing or venting boiler or other appliances with improper methods or materials may result in serious injury or death due
to re or to asphyxiation from poisonous gases such
as carbon monoxide with is odorless and invisible.
!
WARNING
Do not connect boiler to any portion of mechanical draft system operating under positive pressure.
• Inspect chimney. Verify construction supplies with requirements of authority having jurisdiction, or in absence of such requirements, NFPA 211: Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances.
• Install boiler into chimney which has masonry or metallic chimney liner.
• Unlined chimney will have leaks that will cause poor chimney performance (no draft), and could result in positive pressure in the combustion chamber.
• Horizontal portions of venting system should not exceed 10 ft. in length. Horizontal lengths over 10 ft. will have negative effect on chimney performance.
• Chimney should extend at least 2 ft. above any portion of building within 10 ft. See Figure 15. It should produce a -.06 to -.08 inch W.C. draft, as measured with draft gauge between boiler and barometric draft control while maintaining .02 inch W.C. negative draft in combustion chamber. . See "Chimney or Vent Sizes" chart for recommended minimum and maximum chimney or vent sizes.
• Inadequate draft will cause improper combustion,
resulting in dirty ue ways and high fuel bills.
Connect ue pipe same size as boiler outlet to chimney, sloping upward continuously toward the chimney approximately ¼" per foot. Bolt or screw joints together to avoid sag.
If oil red water heater is vented into same ue as boiler, provide separate hole into chimney whenever possible.
When this isn’t possible, use “Y” connection in ue
pipe, using separate draft regulator for each unit. When chimney will not provide adequate draft to handle input from water heater and boiler simultaneously, wire units so only one will operate at a time, favoring water heater.

Start-Up And Adjustment Of Oil Burner
NOTE: Bacharach or Dwyer test kits include these instruments.
(See oil burner instructions for nozzle and electrode setting)
1.
Verify oil burner nozzle is tight in adapter. Burner mounting bolts should be tight.
2.
Check electrode setting, may have been jarred out of position during transportation.
3.
Lubricate burner motor if necessary.
4.
Set room thermostat to call for heat, or jump thermostat contacts on boiler control.
5.
Open all oil line valves.
6.
Turn service switch on. Burner will start.
7.
On one pipe fuel systems only, bleed pump as soon as burner starts. Allow oil to run until all traces of air in suction line disappear.
8.
Turn “OFF” burner and install pressure gauge port on pump.
9.
Start burner and check oil pressure for 140 psi adjust if necessary.
Burner Operation Instructions
• Use provided ¼" diameter slot in inspection cover plate to take draft readings in combustion chamber. See Figure 19, page 16.
Drill ¼" diameter hole in ue pipe between boiler and barometric damper (if used) to take draft, CO2, smoke and temperature readings. Plug hole when done.
• Adjust air shutter on oil burner to obtain “trace” of smoke. Measure CO2 at this point.
• Increase air adjustment to lower CO2 approximately one percent.
• Verify minimum negative .02 w.c., (water column),
“overre” draft and zero smoke.
If -.02 w.c. “overre” draft can not be maintained, changes and/or modications may be required in venting
or chimney.
• See table below as guideline for initial start-up. Make
nal adjustments using combustion instruments.
Check safety control circuit after burner adjustments have been made for satisfactory performance.
A. High limit control: remove cover and note
temperature setting. See Figure 19, page 16. With burner operating, decrease setting to minimum point. When boiler water temperature exceeds set point, high limit switch will open, shutting off power to oil burner. Return setting to desired high limit point. Burner should start.
B. Verify Primary Control and Flame Sensor -
• Flame Failure - simulate by shutting off oil supply with hand valve while burner is on. Sixty seconds after
ameout, safety switch locks out, ignition stops, motor
stops and oil valve - when used - closes. To restart, open oil supply valve and reset safety switch.
• Ignition Failure - With burner off, close oil supply valve and run through start-up procedure. Safety
switch should lock out as in ame failure.
• Power Failure - Turn off main power supply switch while burner is operating. When burner stops, restore power and burner should start. If operation is not as described as above, check wiring and controls.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Regular Maintenance
• Inspect venting system at start of each heating season. Check vent pipe from boiler to chimney for signs of deterioration by rust or sagging joints. Repair if necessary.
Remove vent pipe at base of chimney or ue. Use mirror, check for obstruction.
• Verify compliance to the latest revision of the NFPA 211.
• Operate lever of safety relief valve on boiler periodically to verify that it is functioning properly. Open pressure relief valve before water pressure exceeds 30 psi reading on gauge. If pressure is exceeded and pressure relief valve leaks water when boiler is operating at normal pressures, replace immediately. Corrosion can build at valve seat and prevent functioning as safety device.
Annual Inspection - Before Start of Heating Season
Periodically or at start of heating season inspect boiler, vent and vent pipe for accumulation of soot or scale deposits.
When soot is present on section walls and ueways,
improper combustion results, causing additional sooting
and scaling until ueways are completely closed.
A. To remove soot and scale from ueways, remove
top jacket panel, top clean-out plate and burner. See instructions on Removing Oil Boiler. Use wire brush, brush soot and scale into combustion chamber where it can be removed through burner opening.
Do not overtighten bolts.
Periodic inspection and tightening of tankless heater/ cover plate bolts reduce the risk of leaks. CAUTION: Do not overtighten bolts.
