Vent Piping WARNING: Indoor boilers require a drafthood that must be connected to a vent pipe and properly vented to the outside. Failure to follow this procedure can cause fire or fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. Vent piping the same size or larger than the drafthood outlet is recommended, however, when the total vent height is at least 10 ft.
Type "B" double-wall or equivalent vent pipe is recommended. However, single-wall metal vent pipe may be used as specified in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. 10' OR LESS VENT CAP 2' MIN 2' MIN Manifolds that connect more than one boiler to a common chimney must be sized to handle the combined load. Consult available guides for proper sizing of the manifold and the chimney. At no time should the area be less than the area of the largest outlet.
Vent Damper Installation On vertical vents, the vent damper may be mounted with the actuator in any position. On horizontal vents, do not mount the actuator either directly above or directly below the vent pipe; mount the vent damper actuator to the side of the vent. (Models 133 Through 261) Where Required Location The vent damper is set up for a continuous pilot system.
EFFIKAL® RVGP CAUTION: Install the vent damper to service only the single appliance for which it is intended. if improperly installed, a hazardous condition, such as an explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning, could result. Vent Damper Normal Operation Summary For safe, efficient operation, the vent damper and all flue product carrying areas of the appliance must be checked annually, with particular attention given to deterioration from corrosion or other sources. Check vent damper operation as follows: 1.
*Low NOx units not available for propane. Table G: Maximum Equivalent Pipe Length Venting of Diaphragm Gas Components 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. 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 PROCEDURE MAY DAMAGE THE GAS VALVE.
