6 6 Openings for combustion air supply and venting Openings for combustion air supply and venting To ensure an adequate combustion air supply and venting of the heating system suitable measures must be taken in accordance with the NFPA 31 Air for Combustion and Ventilation, or the local codes. In Canada, the regulations in accordance with CSA/CGA–B 149.1 and 2 Installation Codes apply.
Openings for combustion air supply and venting 6 – If there is a direct connection to the outside, each opening must have a minimum cross-section of one square inch per 4000 Btu/h of the total combustion output of all combustion-fired appliances inside the closed room.
7 Installation 7 Installation 7.1 Air intake and flue gas connection 7.1.1 Notes about air intake connection Danger: Risk of fatal injury from lack of oxygen in the boiler room! V Make sure there is adequate fresh-air ventilation by providing air vents to the outside. V Point out to the system operator that those air vents must remain open.
Installation 7 7.1.3 Flue pipe installation Fig. 24 shows the proper flue gas connection with additional air equipment. Observe the following during the installation of the flue gas connection: V Install a flue pipe connection with an inspection aperture for cleaning. V Fasten the flue gas connector piece to the boiler. V Feed the connector into the flue gas system on a short, ascending path. Avoid deflections, especially those with an angle of 90°. V Fasten and support connectors sufficiently.
7 7.2 Installation Making the water connections Caution: Risk of system damage due to leaking connections! V Support the pipes to the boiler to prevent them from being under stress. 7.2.1 Installing B-Kit The pressure relief valve [6] and the pressure/temperature gauge [1] are mounted on the boiler supply VK using the return manifold [5] (included in B-Kit). V Seal the double nipple [2] with R 1¼ " threads NPT. V Seal 90° 1¼ " NPT street elbow [3] on double nipple.
Installation 7.3 7 Filling the heating system and checking connections for leaks Before commissioning the heating system, check it for soundness to avoid leaks occurring during operation. Warning: Risk to health due to pollution of drinking water! V Always observe the regulations and standards applicable in your jurisdiction for the prevention of contamination of drinking water (e.g. by water from heating systems).
7 Installation V Seal pressure relief valve connection (Æ Fig. 25, page 28) and all other open connection with blind plugs. V Isolate the expansion tank from the system by closing the valve. V Open the mixing and shut-off valves on the heating water side. V Connect the hose to the water tap. Push hose onto the hose connection of the boiler fill & drain valve, fasten with a hose clip, and fill with water. V Open the fill & drain valve. Slowly fill the heating system.
Commissioning 8 8 Commissioning This chapter explains how to commission the heating system for the first time. V Complete the commissioning report during this process (Æ Chapter 8.6, page 36). Danger: Risk of fatal accident due to chimney fire! V Before initial commissioning, have the chimney checked by the local chimney installer. V If soot ignites, close all ventilation ducts to the boiler and the fuel space door. V Check flue pipe for leaks. V Do not make any constructional changes to the boiler.
8 8.1 Commissioning Bring the system up to operating pressure Bring the system up to the normal operating pressure before commissioning. Caution: Risk of damage to system due to temperature stresses. If you fill the heating system when it is hot, the resulting temperature stresses can cause stress cracks. The boiler will then leak. Fig. 28 Pressure/temperature gauge V Only fill the heating system when cold (the flow temperature should be no more than 100 °F).
Commissioning 8.3 8 Heating up the boiler Warning: Risk of system damage due to incorrect operation! Overfilling the ignition chamber with fuel can cause overheating and damage to the boiler. V Adjust fuel quantity to the energy absorption of the heating system (Æ Chapter 8.4, page 35). Decisive for clean burning in the boiler are the correct operation of the boiler and a sufficient flue draft for the flue gas system. V Open the ash pan door.
8 Commissioning V Insert a layer of paper [2]. V Insert a 3 to 4 inch layer of fuel (thin kindling, coal or coke) on the paper layer [2]. Do not use any thick logs. V Light the fuel inside the boiler. V If you are using solid accelerant (coal igniter), light the accelerant outside of the boiler and then place it on the ignition material. V Fold the front grate upwards and insert the segment plate. V Leave the ash pan door slightly open. V Let the fuel burn for 15 – 20 minutes until there are embers.
Commissioning 8.4 8 Energy absorption The energy absorption of the heating system (consisting essentially of boiler and buffer storage) depends on the actual value of the water temperature of the buffer storage. For economical operation of the heating system, the fuel quantity used must be adjusted to the respective energy absorption. This way, overheating of the boiler is avoided and pollutant emission is reduced. 8.

Shutting down the boiler 9 9 Shutting down the boiler Warning: Risk of system damage due to frost! If the heating system has been shut down, it may freeze up in cold weather conditions. V When there is a risk of frost, protect your heating system against freezing up. V If there is risk of frost and you are not operating the boiler, empty the system. To shut the boiler down, let it burn off everything without artificially accelerating the combustion process.
10 10 Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance Warning: Damage to system due to improper maintenance! Insufficient or improper maintenance of the boiler can cause damage and void warranty claims. Warning: Risk of system damage due to insufficient maintenance and cleaning! Larger quantities of ashes in the fuel space can cause overheating of and damage to the boiler. V Carry out regular, extensive, and professional maintenance of the heating system.
Cleaning and maintenance 10 10.1.1 Frequent cleaning The ashes must be removed from the combustion chamber/ash pan every 1 – 3 days. V Open the ash pan door [2]. V Fold the front grate downwards and remove the segment plate (Æ Fig. 30, page 33, and Fig. 31, page 33). V Tip the combustion residues into the ash pan. V Insert the segment plate and fold the front grate upwards. V Remove the combustion residues from the ash pan with the ash shovel [1]. Do not place hot ashes in plastic and waste containers.
10 Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning the flue gas header The flue gas collector [2] is cleaned via the inspection aperture. The inspection aperture is on the bottom of the flue gas collector and is sealed with the cleaning cover [1]. V Unscrew the two wing nuts on the cleaning cover. V Carefully remove the cleaning cover [1]. V Remove the combustion residues via the inspection aperture. V Close the inspection aperture with the cleaning cover [1]. Check that the gasket is seated correctly.
Cleaning and maintenance 10 10.3 Checking the flue gas temperature If the flue gas temperature is higher than stated in the specifications, the system must be cleaned again.
