6. Eliminate potential for high risk situations for particulate matter to
be in the combustion air supply (e.g., as a result of construction and
maintenance activities).
Utilities
 The Gas Supply
Adhere to the following for gas supply installation:
1. Install gas piping in accordance with all applicable codes.
2. Ensure pipe and fi ttings used are new and free of dirt or other deposits.
3. Ensure piping is of the proper size for adequate gas supply to the gas head
assembly. Consult your gas company for specifi c recommendations.
4. When making gas piping joints, use a sealing compound resistant to the
action of liquefi ed petroleum gases. Do not use Tefl on tape on gas line
heads.
5. Ensure no piping stresses are transmitted to the equipment. The
equipment shall not be used as a pipe anchor.
6. Ensure all vent connections on diaphragms, gas valves, pressure regulators,
and pressure switches (gas-fi red units) are vented per local code.
7. On gas-fi red units with NFPA 85 valve trains, ensure the vent valve is piped
to atmosphere per local code.
8. During any pressure testing of the system at pressures in excess of 1/2 psig
(14 inch W.C.), isolate the with the manual shutoff valve (located at the end
of the supplied gas train) from the gas supply piping system.
9. Ensure the supply pressure is regulated by a non-stacking, tight, shut-off
regulator.
10. Arrange gas piping so that it does not interfere with any cover or burner,
inhibit service or maintenance, or prevent access between unit and walls
or another unit.
11. After gas piping is completed and before wiring installation is started,
carefully check all piping connections, (factory and fi eld), for gas leaks. Use
an appropriate leak test solution.
 The Oil Supply
Adhere to the following for installation:
1. Fuel pipes must be of approved materials and of a diameter suitable for the
quantity of oil being delivered to the burner. Vacuum must not exceed 10
in. (254 mm) of mercury at the pump inlet. Maximum inlet pressure to oil
pump is 3 PSIG.
2. Make fuel connection in accordance with the details on the enclosed fuel
!
WARNING
All information in this manual is for
reference and guidance purposes,
and does not substitute for required
professional training, conduct, and strict
adherence to applicable jurisdictional/
professional codes and regulations.
A qualifi ed installer, service agency or the
gas supplier must perform installation and
service on the fuel delivery system.
Do not use matches, candles, fl ame or
other sources of ignition to check for gas
leaks.
What to do if you smell gas:
Do not try to light the appliance.
Do not touch any electrical switch.
Do not use any phone in the building.
Leave building and contact gas supplier
from neighbor’s phone. If you cannot
reach gas supplier, phone the fi re
department.
When making gas piping joints, maintain
proper ventilation to reduce breathing
hazards.
An exhaust fan may draw products of
combustion into the work environment
creating a possible hazard to personnel.

CAUTION
It is essential that only fresh air be allowed
to enter the combustion air system. Foreign
substances, such as combustible volatiles
and lint in the combustion system can create
hazardous conditions. If foreign substances
can enter the air stream, the combustion air
inlet must be piped to an outside location.
Failure to do so will void the warranty.
To avoid failures due to poor combustion,
ensure make-up air system is properly
designed.
