NOTE: Flex connectors must be installed on the gas supply, water inlet and
water outlet lines. Spring loaded pipe hangers should be used on the air
inlet and the fl ue gas vent.
NOTE: Contact your Fulton Representative for vibration isolation packages
designed specifi cally for your application.
How to Install Spring Isolation Mounts
Adhere to the following for Spring Isolation Mounts (see Figure 4):
1. Thread the leveling bolt into the top load plate of the spring until the head
of the bolt is within 1/8” of the top load plate of the spring.
2. Coordinate the location of each isolator.
3. Remove the small cap screw and washer. Raise the boiler with jacks or
similar tools. Do not attempt to raise the boiler via one lifting point, but lift
evenly around the perimeter of the boiler). Slide the spring isolator under
the boiler or mounting bracket with the bolt head on the underside of the
bracket.
4. Insert the small cap screw through the bracket and thread into the top of
the leveling bolt and tighten fi nger tight.
5. Lower the boiler (evenly) onto the spring isolators. Do not overload any
one isolator and take care not to push the boiler sideways.
6. Do not attempt to place all the weight on one spring, but distribute the
load proportionately by adjusting each isolator in sequence.
7. Continue to adjust each leveling bolt (in sequence) until the boiler is at
its proper height. When the boiler is fi lled with water, the springs will
compress approximately 1-2”.
8. Tighten the small cap screw, thus securing the spring isolator to the
supported equipment and locking the leveling bolt against turning.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to move the boiler laterally
while it is supported on isolators. Bent or
broken leveling bolts or springs, or damage
to the neoprene bottom spring cap could
result.
Do not install the boiler in an uncontrolled
environment where the condensate will be
subject to freezing temperatures.
