Prepare boiler location — codes & checklist

Installations must
follow these codes:
Before locating the boiler,
check the following:
• Check for nearby connection to:
• System water piping
• Venting connections
• Gas supply piping
• Electrical power
• Check area around boiler. Remove any combustible materials, gasoline
and other flammable liquids.
Failure to keep boiler area clear and free of combustible
materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids and
vapors can result in severe personal injury, death or
substantial property damage.
• Boiler must be installed so that gas control system components are
protected from dripping or spraying water or rain during operation
or service.
• If new boiler will replace existing boiler, check for and correct system
problems, such as:
1. System leaks causing oxygen corrosion or section cracks from
hard water deposits.
2. Incorrectly-sized expansion tank.
3. Lack of antifreeze in boiler water causing system and boiler to
freeze and leak.
