1.
Ventilation of boiler room must be adequate enough to
provide sufcient air to properly support combustion.
2.
When boiler is located in an unconned space in a
building of conventional construction frame, masonry
or metal, inltration normally is adequate to provide
air for combustion and ventilation. However, in any
building which has been altered to conserve energy
or to minimize inltration, the boiler area should be
considered as a CONFINED SPACE. Provide combustion
air and ventilation air in accordance with the section
“Air for Combustion and Ventilation,” of NFPA 31:
Standard for the Installation of Oil-Burning Equipment.
3.
When a boiler is installed in an unconned 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.
6
VENTILATION & COMBUSTION AIR
4.
When air for combustion and room ventilation is from
inside buildings, conned space shall be provided with
two permanent openings, one starting 12 inches from
the top and one 12 inches from the bottom of the
enclosed space. Each opening shall have a minimum
free area of 1 square inch per one thousand (1,000)
Btu per hour of the total input rating of all appliances
in the enclosed space, but must not be less than one
hundred (100) square inches. These openings must
freely communicate with the interior areas having
adequate inltration from the outside. See Figure #1.
5.
When the boiler is installed in a conned space and
all air is provided from the outdoors, the conned
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 #2.
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 #3.
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 #4.
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
¼ 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
specied. If the design and free area is not known,
it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 2025% 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.

Figure #5, below. When 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 heating cycle open valves A and B, close valves
C and D.
3.
During heating cooling cycle open valves C and D, close
valves A and B.
A. Maintain minimum clearance of one inch to hot
water pipes.
In air handling units where they may be exposed to
refrigerated air circulation, boiler piping system MUST be
supplied with ow control valves or other automatic means
to prevent gravity circulation of boiler water during cooling
cycle.
4.
Hot water boilers installed above radiation level must
be provided with low water device either as part of
boiler or at time of boiler installation.
5.
When boiler is connected to heating system utilizing
multiple zoned circulators, each circulator must be
supplied with ow control valve to prevent gravity
circulation.
* Reduced pressure back ow preventer must be used
under provisions required by the Environmental
Protection Agency, (EPA).
6.
Bypass piping is an option which gives ability to
adjust supply boiler water temperature to t system
or condition of installation. Although, this method of
piping is not typically required for baseboard heating
systems.

VENTING SYSTEM INSPECTION & INSTALLATION
INSPECT CHIMNEY to verify it is constructed according
to latest revision of the NFPA 211. Local codes may differ
from this code and should be checked. Where there is a
conict, local code will prevail.
• Boiler must be installed 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 combustion chamber.
• Horizontal portions of venting system should not
exceed 10 feet in length. Horizontal lengths over 10
feet will have negative effect on chimney performance.
• Chimney should extend at least 2 feet above any
portion of building within 10 feet. See Figure #15. It
should produce negative draft of .06 to .08 inches of
water column, (W.C.), as measured with draft gauge
between boiler and barometric draft control while
maintaining .02 inch W.C. negative draft in combustion
chamber. See chart “Chimney or Vent Sizes” for
recommended chimney or vent sizes.
• Inadequate draft will cause improper combustion,
resulting in dirty ue ways and high fuel bills.
Figure #15
CONNECT FLUE PIPE same size as boiler outlet to
chimney, sloping upward continuously toward 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 not 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 that only one will
operate at a time, favoring water heater.
16
OIL TANK AND PIPING
• Install burner per instructions provided with burner-ina-box kit.
• Install oil tank and piping in accordance with the
National Board of Fire Underwriters and local
regulations.
• Oil storage tank, vent, ll pipe and caps should be as
prescribed by local codes.
• In no case should vent pipe be smaller than 1¼” I.P.S.
Fill pipe should not be less than 2” I.P.S.
• Suction line from tank to burner should be one
continuous piece of tubing to prevent air entering line.
• Suction line, must be ⅜” O.D. copper tubing for runs of
50 feet or less, and ½” O.D. for longer runs. Oil return
line, same size as suction line, must be used on any
installation where bottom of tank is below fuel unit of
burner.
• Oil lines should be buried or otherwise protected from
mechanical injury.
• Flare ttings on all oil lines are recommended.
Compression ttings on suction line often allow air to
be drawn into fuel pump, making it difcult to maintain
oil pressure at nozzle.
• Do not run overhead fuel lines from tank to oil burner.
• Fuel pump connections and by-pass should be made
according to instructions attached to fuel pump. If
tank is more than 20’ from boiler, a two stage fuel
unit should be installed in place of single stage pump
supplied as standard equipment with burner. Make
certain rotation and speed are same and pump is
suitable for burner horsepower rating.
• Oil line lter and shut-off valve should be installed in
suction line. Shut-off valves should be installed in both
suction and return lines at burner for convenience in
servicing burner.
• Allow extra tubing at burner so burner may be removed
from boiler for cleaning without disconnecting tubing.
(See Figures #16 & #17, below).
• Optional exible oil line is available.

Safety Relief Valve
!
WARNING
Burn and scald hazard. Safety relief valve could
discharge steam or hot water during operation.
• Operate lever of safety relief valve, on boiler
periodically to make sure it is functioning properly.
• Safety relief valve should open before water pressure
exceeds 30 psi reading on gauge.
• If this pressure is exceeded and safety relief valve
starts leaking water when boiler is operating at normal
pressures, it should be immediately replaced.
• Corrosion can build up rapidly at valve seat and
prevent its functioning as safety device. See Figure
#11, page 13.
Start-Up And Adjustment Of Oil Burner
(See oil burner instructions for nozzle and electrode
setting)
A. Check oil burner nozzle to verify it is tight in the
adapter.
B. Check electrode setting, may have been jarred out
of position during transportation.
C. Burner mounting bolts should be tight.
D. Set room thermostat to call for heat, or jump
thermostat contacts on the boiler control.
E. Open all oil line valves.
F. Turn service switch on. Burner should start.
G. On one pipe fuel systems only, vent pump as soon
as burner starts. Allow oil to run until all traces of
air in the suction line disappear.
H. Turn “OFF” burner and install pressure gauge port
on pump.
I. Start burner again and check oil pressure per setup
charts on page 24. Adjust if necessary.
Do not set re visually.
method to determine proper air adjustments.
Improperly adjusted burner causes soot and high fuel bills
because of incomplete combustion of fuel oil. This in turn
may require excessive boiler maintenance, service costs,
and in some instances, house cleaning or redecorating. A
competent service mechanic should be consulted to make
proper adjustments with smoke tester, CO2 indicator and
draft gauge.
Instructions For Proper Operation Of Boiler
Burner Unit
A ¼” diameter slot is provided in inspection cover plate to
take draft readings in combustion chamber. See Figure
#26. A ¼” diameter hole will be required in ue pipe
between boiler and barometric damper (if used) to take
draft, CO2, smoke and temperature readings. Adjust air
shutter on oil burner to obtain “trace” of smoke. Measure
CO2 at this point. Increase air adjustment to lower CO
approximately one (1) percent. Check to insure minimum
negative .02” w.c., (water column), “overre” draft and
zero (0) smoke. If - .02”w.c. “overre” draft can not be
maintained, changes and/or modications may be required
in venting or chimney.
Following tables (page 25) are provided as guideline for
initial start-up. Final adjustments MUST be made using
combustion instruments as previously mentioned.
Check Safety Control Circuit - for satisfactory
performance after burner adjustments have been made.
1.
High limit control: remove cover and note temperature
setting. See Figure #26. With burner operating,
decrease setting to minimum point. When boiler water
temperature exceeds this set point, high limit switch
will open, shutting off power to oil burner. Return
setting to desired high limit point. Burner should
restart. Refer to instructions included with limit.
2.
Primary control and ame sensor check following:
A. Flame failure - simulate by shutting off oil supply
with hand valve while burner is on. After ame
extinguishes, control goes through recycle period
and attempts another ignition then locks out.
To restart, open oil supply valve and reset safety
switch. Refer to instructions included with burner.
B. Ignition failure - with burner off, close oil supply
valve and run through start-up procedure, The
safety switch should lock out as in ame failure.
C. 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.
Instruments are only reliable

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Preventive Maintenance - of oil red boiler reduces
operating costs. Boiler and vent pipe should be inspected
for accumulation of soot or scale deposits periodically
but at least once every year before start of each heating
season. When soot is present on section walls and
ueways, improper combustion will result, causing
additional sooting and scaling until ueways are completely
closed. To remove soot and scale from ueways, remove
top jacket panel, top clean-out plate, open burner swing
door. See Figure #26.
Periodic Inspection - and tightening of tankless heater/
cover plate bolts will reduce risk of leaks. See Replacement
Parts “Heat Exchanger” section.
Instructions For Opening Burner Swing Door
1.
Turn off power to boiler.
2.
Allow boiler to cool down.
3.
Disconnect power cable at factory supplied burner
electrical disconnect. See Figure #26.
4.
Loosen screws on the sides of lower front jacket panel.
See Figure #24.
5.
