WARNINGS AND STATEMENTS

BEFORE READING THE

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.)

PROPANE GAS-FIRED BOILERS

Installation location ONLY as permitted in paragraph

entitled "LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM (L.P.) PROPANE

GAS-FIRED BOILER LOCATION" on page 4 of this

instruction book.

The above warning does not apply to NATURAL gas-

fired boilers.

The installation must conform to the requirements of

the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of

such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code,

ANSI Z223.1-latest edition. The installation must also

conform to the additional requirements in this Slant/Fin

Instruction Book.

In addition where required by the authority having

jurisdiction, the installation must conform to American

Society of Mechanical Engineers Safety Code for

Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired

Boilers, No. CSD-1.

WARNING

This boiler, gas piping and accessories must be

installed, connected, serviced and repaired by a

trained, experienced service technician, familiar with

all precautions required for gas-fired equipment and

licensed or otherwise qualified, in compliance with the

authority having jurisdiction.

WARNING

The venting system of this boiler is under positive pressure.

Leakage from this system can be hazardous and if not

avoided can result in death or serious injury. In addition to

the recommendations within this manual and the User’s

Information Manual, the venting system, from the blower to

the outdoor discharge, must be carefully checked annually

by a qualified service agency.

This manual must be left

with owner and should be

hung on or adjacent to

the boiler for reference.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS The installation must conform to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction or, in the absence of such requirements, to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1latest edition. This installation must also conform to the additional requirements in this Slant/Fin Instruction Book. NATURAL GAS-FIRED BOILER LOCATION Provide a level, solid foundation for the boiler.

VICTORY VSPH Models VENTING APPLICATION VSPH Series are sealed combustion type boilers, they maybe installed and vented either as a direct vent boiler which all air for combustion is obtained directly from outside or as a nondirect vent boiler which air for combustion is taken from inside the boiler room. VSPH boilers must be vented by proper 3" diameter stainless steel venting system (see “vent material” on this page) through the roof or sidewall.
PAGE 6
When joining the various components of the above listed vent systems, the manufacturers’ instructions should be closely followed to insure proper sealing. Use sealant specified by vent system manufacturer for sealing of pipe and fittings. See Figure 4 for proper application of vent pipe sealing for Saf-T vent system by Heat-Fab, Inc. All vent connections must be liquid and pressure tight. Flue vent system CANNOT be cut to length. Consult manufacturer’s instructions.

VICTORY VSPH Models VENTING INSTALLATION Follow the vent material manufacturer’s instructions in conjunction with these instructions for venting system installation. I. Non-Direct Vent Installation The air for combustion is taken from the ambient air surrounding the boiler; therefore, ample supply of air is required for combustion and ventilation (see page 5.) DO NOT use this installation method if the surrounding of the boiler is contaminated.

PAGE 15
VICTORY VSPH Models VENTING AND AIR INTAKE SYSTEM REGULAR INSPECTION A. Inspect the system regularly for condensation, corrosion and/or physical damage. A qualified professional should service the boiler annually and include such an inspection at that time. The homeowner should look over the system monthly for damage, water stains, any signs of rust, other corrosions or separation of the vent and air intake piping (if direct-vent). C.

VICTORY VSPH Models 4. Air control system Diaphragm type compression tank is used to control system pressure. It must be installed at the boiler or between boiler and supply main pump(s). An automatic air vent is used to remove air from the system in Figure 17. If system pressure needs further control, add an additional tank in parallel with original tank or install a larger capacity tank. Use appropriate size tank for volume of water in system. See chart for boiler’s volume.

Check water pressure regularly and add water slowly to system when needed. If much water is added, venting may be necessary. Regular loss of water from boiler system may indicate either a system leak, or a faulty air control system, or a faulty automatic fill valve. B. Check venting system.
