14) Installation of the vent damper supplied with this boiler is mandatory. Install vent damper (see Figure 6.2) as follows:
a) Open vent damper carton and remove installation instructions. Read the instructions thoroughly before proceeding.
Verify that vent damper is same size as draft diverter outlet (Figure 2.1). Unpack vent damper carefully. Do not
force closed damper blade. Forcing vent damper closed may result in damaged gear train and void warranty.
b) Vent damper is factory shipped having approximately ¾” diameter hole in the vent damper blade, which must be
plugged. Use the plug supplied with the damper.
c) Mount the vent damper on the ue collar without modication to either and secure with sheet metal screws. Make
sure screws do not interfere with damper blade operation. Vent damper blade position indicator must be visible to
users.
d) The damper wire harness is shipped pre-wired into the boiler. Plug the loose end of this harness into the damper and
secure the exible conduit to the damper using a connector nut provided.
Provide adequate clearance to combustible construction and servicing.
e) Install vent connector pipe and vent ttings from vent damper outlet to chimney or gas vent. Secure with sheet metal
screws and support as required.
Removing an Existing Boiler from a Common Chimney
In some cases, when an existing boiler is removed from a common chimney, the common venting system may be too large
for the remaining appliances. At the time of removal of an existing boiler the following steps shall be followed with each
appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining
connected to the common venting system are not in operation.
a) Seal any unused opening in the common venting system.
b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine there is no blockage or
restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deciencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
c) Insofar as practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which all the appliances
remaining connected to the common 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
hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close
replace dampers.
d) Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so the appliance
will operate continuously.
e) Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after ve (5) minutes of main burner operation. Use the ame of a
match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar, or pipe.
