codes, or, intheabsenceoflocalcodes, withthe latest  
editionsofthe NationalFuelGasCode,ANSIZ223.1,  
and the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. In  
Canada, installations must conform with the current  
CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 and the Canadian Electrical  
Code Part 1 CSA C22.2 No.1. Where required by the  
authority having jurisdiction, the installation must con-  
form to American Society of Mechanical Engineers

adequate service of burner-tray and controls.  
MOUNTING BASE  
Boiler should be mounted on a level surface. Each  
boiler is designed with a built-in sub-base approved for  
mounting the boiler on combustible flooring. Boiler  
must NOT be installed on carpet flooring.  
3) Except for carpeted flooring, boilers are certified for  
installation on combustible floors.  
4) For un-insulated hot water pipes, maintain a 2"  
clearance, or consult local authority having jurisdic-  
tion.  
COMBUSTION/VENTILATION AIR  
WARNING: Air supply to the boiler room must not be  
affected by mechanical exhaust vents located in other  
parts of the house, such as kitchen or bathroom fans,  
or atticblowers. Mechanicalexhaustventsmaycreate  
a negative pressure condition in the boiler room that  
canbecomeahazardofasphyxiation, explosionorfire.  
CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated  
by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the  
boiler. Measures must be taken to prevent the entry of  
corrosive chemical fumes to the combustion and ven-  
tilation air supply. Such chemicals include, but are not  
limited to, chlorinated and/or fluorinated hydrocarbons  
such as found in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, dry-  
cleaningfluids, degreasers, andpaintremovers. Other  
harmful elements may come from bleaches, air fresh-  
eners, or mastics. Vapors from these types of products  
can form corrosive acid compounds when burned in a  
gas flame. The resulting acid condensate can damage  
or substantially reduce the life of the heater. It may be  
necessary to provide outside air directly to the heater in  
order to avoid this problem.  
Fig.#8196  
NOTE: The boiler should be located in an area where  
water leakage will not result in damage to the area  
adjacent to the appliance or to the structure. When  
such locations cannot be avoided, it is recommended  
that a suitable drain pan, adequately drained, be in-  
stalled under the appliance. The pan must not restrict  
air flow.  
1) The boiler must be provided with adequate supply of  
air for proper combustion and ventilation in accor-  
dance with Sec. 5.3, of the latest edition of the  
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, or appli-  
cable provisions of the local building codes.  
In addition, the boiler shall be installed such that  
thegasignitionsystemcomponentsareprotectedfrom  
water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance  
operation and service (circulator replacement, control  
replacement, etc.)

2) When the boiler is installed in a confined space  
such as a utility room or closet (Models 0030,0042  
and 0066 only), where all air is supplied from inside  
the building, the boiler room must be provided with  
twoopenings, eachonehavingaminimumnetfree  
area, in square inches as follows:  
Location of the openings is the same as in the  
previouscase-thatis,within12"ofthetop,andwithin12"  
of the bottom of the enclosure. If horizontal ducts are  
used, the area must be doubled and the duct area shall  
not be less than the area of the openings they connect,

VENTING CONNECTIONS  
These boilers have built-in drafthoods. Vent piping  
the same size or larger than the drafthood outlet is  
recommended; however, when the total vent height  
(drafthood outlet to vent terminal) is at least ten (10)  
feet, the vent pipe size may be reduced by one size only  
as specified in Chapter 10 of the latest edition of the  
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1. As much as  
possible, avoid long horizontal runs of vent pipe and too  
manyelbows. Ifinstallationrequireshorizontalruns,the  
vent pipe must have a minimum of 1/4 inch per foot rise  
and should be supported at not less than five foot  
intervals. Maximum vent connector horizontal length  
shallbe1-1/2feet(18inches)foreachinchofconnector

(a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting  
system.  
(b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size  
and horizontal pitch and make sure there is no  
blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and  
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe  
condition.  
(c) Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and  
windows and all doors between the space in which  
the appliances remaining connected to the com-  
mon venting system are located and other spaces  
of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any  
appliance not connected to the common venting  
system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range

The gas valve is provided with pressure taps to  
measure gas pressure upstream of the gas valve and  
downstream which is the same as the manifold pres-  
sure.  
The inlet gas connection of the boiler gas valve is  
1/2". Provide an adequate gas piping supply line no  
smaller than 1/2", according to the chart below:  
Maximum Equivalent Pipe Length (Feet)  
WATER CONNECTIONS & SYSTEM PIPING  
The pipe size for water connections is shown on  
page 3. Typical piping systems are shown on pages 12  
to 14.  
The boiler is supplied with a circulator and built in  
bypass as standard to ensure the required minimum  
water flow in the boiler. The bypass on models H-0135  
and H-0180 is provided with an adjustable valve that is  
factory-setinthefullopenposition. Thehandleisshipped  
loose. The full open position is appropriate for most  
systems, and ensures adequate flow through the boiler.  
If system flow is inadequate, (indicated by excessive  
temperature drop through the system) the bypass valve

Gas piping must have a sediment trap ahead of the  
boiler gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve located  
outside the jacket. All gas piping should be tested after  
installation in accordance with local codes.

CAUTION: The boiler and its manual shut-off valve must be  
disconnected from the gas supply during any pressure  
testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psig  
(3.45 KPA). Dissipate test pressure in the gas supply line  
before reconnecting the boiler and its manual shut-off valve  
to gas supply line. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS PROCE-  
DURE MAY DAMAGE THE GAS VALVE. OVER PRES-  
SURED GAS VALVES ARE NOT COVERED BY WAR-  
RANTY. The boiler and its gas connections shall be leak  
tested before placing the appliance in operation. Use soapy  
water for leak test. DO NOT use open flame.  
When the total system head exceeds the available  
head pressures, a primary/secondary pumping system  
is recommended.  
The minimum boiler operating temperature

The pressure relief valve is mounted on the boiler and must be piped to a drain. We recommend that all high  
points be vented and that purge valves be installed. A boiler installed above radiation level must be provided with  
alowwatercut-offdevice. Seepage22forwiringhook-up. Theboiler,whenusedinconnectionwitharefrigeration  
system, must be installed so that the chilled medium is piped in parallel with the boiler with appropriate valves to  
prevent the chilled medium from entering the boiler.  
The boiler piping system of a hot water heating boiler, that is connected to heating coils located in air handling  
units where they may be exposed to refrigerated air circulation, must be equipped with flow control valves or other  
automatic means to prevent gravity circulation of the boiler water during the cooling cycle.  
A diaphragm expansion tank should be installed in the return line. A typical 8" -diameter expansion tank can  
be used on models H-0030, H-0042, and H-0066, and an 11"-diameter expansion tank can be used on models H-  
0090, H-0135 and H-0180. Consult tank manufacturer for correct sizing.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION  
INTERMITTENT IGNITION DEVICE (IID)  
Boilers equipped with the IID system will automatically light the pilot burner first and then the main burner, each  
time there is a call for heat from the room thermostat. Whenever the room thermostat is calling for heat, the  
circulator supplied with the boiler, will be energized and should be running. The ignition control module will also  
be energized to initiate the pilot ignition by opening the first main valve (pilot). At the same time, the electronic  
sparkgeneratorinthemoduleproducesahigh-voltagesparkpulseoutputthatlightsthepilotburner. Ifthepilotburner  
does not light, the module will not energize the second main valve and the burners will not light. Ignition spark  
continues only until the timed trial for ignition period ends. Then, the module goes into safety shutdown or lockout.
