Part Number 550-101-009/0107

Prepare boiler — draft hood & spill switch

Draft hood installation

1. Orient draft hood with spill switch mounting holes to front of boiler

as shown in Figure .

. Secure draft hood to outlet at top of boiler with sheet metal screws.
3. Bottom of draft hood or “skirt” must have clearance dimension above

jacket top panel as indicated on draft hood.

Do not alter boiler draft hood or place any obstruction or

non-approved vent damper in breeching or vent system.

CSA certification will become void. Flue gas spillage and

carbon monoxide emissions will occur causing severe

personal injury or death.

Spill switch installation

1. Fasten spill switch to draft hood as shown in

Figure 6

and

Figure 7

.

. See Wiring diagram to connect wires:

a. Standing pilot boiler — see

page 34

.

b. Spark-ignited pilot boiler —

see

pages 38

and

39

.

Improper orientation of spill switch

may cause boiler to shut down. The

loss of heat can result in significant

damage due to freezing.

Prepare boiler — install vent piping

1. Connect from draft hood or vent damper outlet to chimney or vent

with same size vent connector.

. Where possible, vertical venting to the outside from the draft hood or

vent damper outlet will offer best performance.

3. Where horizontal vent connector is used, slope upward at least ¼” per

lineal foot toward chimney or vent and support with hangers to prevent

sagging.

4. Breeching

must not

be connected to any portion of a mechanical draft

system that can operate under positive pressure.

stantial property damage could

result.
