NOTICE
Notes:
1. The ratings are based on standard test procedures
prescribed by the United States Department of Energy.
2. Net AHRI ratings are based on net installed radiation of
sufficient quantity for the requirements of the building
and nothing need be added for normal piping and pickup.
Ratings are based on a piping and pickup allowance of
1.15.
3. Crest boilers require special gas venting. Use only
the vent materials and methods specified in the Crest
Installation and Operation Manual.
4. Standard Crest boilers are equipped to operate from sea
level to 4,500 feet only with no adjustments.
5. High altitude Crest boilers are equipped to operate
from 3,000 to 12,000 feet. High altitude models are
manufactured with different control parameters for high
altitude operation, but the sequence of operation given
in this manual remains the same as the standard boilers.
A high altitude label (as shown in FIG A.) is also affi xed
to the unit.
6. Standard Crest boilers will de-rate by 2.2% for each 1,000
feet above sea level up to 4,500 feet when combustion
calibration is performed and CO
2
’s are adjusted to the
recommended levels.
7. High altitude Crest boilers will de-rate by 1.4% for each
1,000 feet above sea level up to 5,500 feet and 1.8% for
each 1,000 feet above 5,500 feet.
8. Ratings have been confi rmed by the Hydronics Section
of AHRI.
