CAUTION:

Care should be taken when lifting the machine to prevent damage.

1. Immediately after unpacking the machine, inspect for any shipping damage. If damage is

found, save the packing material and contact the carrier immediately.

2. Remove the gas fired boiler from the skid. Move

the boiler to its permanent location.

Installation Codes

The installation of this unit must conform to local codes or, in the absence of local code, to the National Fuel

Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition. Where required by the authority having jurisdiction, the installation

also must conform to the Standards for Controls and Safety Devices for Automatically Fired Boilers,

ANSI/ASME CSD-1.

For Canada, the installation of this unit must conform to all Canadian local codes as applicable or, in the

absence of local codes, to the Canadian installation code, CAN/CGA-B149, and CSA C22.1 Canadian

Electrical Code Part 1.

Locating the Gas Fired Boiler

Locate the gas fired boiler as near to the exhaust venting system as practical. Air openings on the front, back and sides

of the boiler housing should not be obstructed since they supply air to the combustion chamber.

The location of the boiler should be chosen with regard to venting dimensions, convenient access to piping,

ventilation of operating components and accessibility for service and cleaning.

The boiler shall be installed such that the gas ignition system components are protected from water (dripping,

spraying, rain, etc.) during appliance operation and servicing procedures such as pump replacement, burner

cleaning and the like.

When the unit is located in an unconfined space of a building, air infiltration may be adequate to provide air for

combustion and ventilation. Where normal infiltration does not provide the necessary air, outside air must be

introduced.

In buildings of unusually tight construction, or when locating the unit in a confined space, additional air must be

provided. For confined spaces, two (2) permanent openings shall be provided:

One (1) opening within 12" of the ceiling and one (1) within 12" of the floor of the enclosing space. Each opening shall

be at least 1 square inch per 1,000 BTU/HR heater input of the total for all appliances in the area, but not less than 100

square inches. These openings shall freely connect with areas having adequate infiltration from outside.

The boiler should be placed beside the Champion dishwasher model that it serves so that all plumbing and electrical

connections between the boiler and the dishwasher can be made per Champion's specifications.

If installed in a finished area, provisions should be made for drainage of any accidental spillage or leakage of

water. The boiler pressure relief valve and back-flow preventer should be piped to a drain to protect from the

occasional discharge of water.

Clearance to Combustibles (Cont'd)

The clearances listed in the Clearance Chart (See Fig. 4) are minimum clearances. Clearances for service accessibility

to the gas fired boiler must take preference over the fire protection clearances. The installer should allow a minimum of

12" for servicing at the sides and back of the boiler if possible.

WARNING:

Provide a screen or other type of protective barrier around exposed vent pipe to reduce burn hazards where

inadvertent contact with hot vent surfaces by personnel can occur.

Air for Combustion and Ventilation General

An adequate supply of air for combustion and ventilation must be supplied in accordance with Section 5.3 of

the National Fuel and Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition or applicable provisions of the local building

codes for gas utilization equipment installed in buildings that require air for combustion, ventilation, and the

dilution of flue gases from within the building.

For Canada, the installation of this unit must conform to all Canadian local codes as applicable or, in the absence

of local codes, to the Canadian installation code, CAN/CGA-B149.

Install the equipment in a location where the ventilation facilitates the satisfactory combustion of gas, proper

venting and maintenance of ambient temperature at safe limits under normal conditions of use.

Equipment should be located so as not to interfere with proper air circulation. When normal infiltration

does not provide the necessary air, outside air must be introduced.

In addition to air needed for combustion, process air must be provided as required for:

cooling of equipment or material, controlling the dew point, heating, drying, oxidation or dilution, safety exhaust, odor

control, and air for compressors.

In addition to air needed for combustion, ventilation air must also be supplied, including all air required for comfort

and proper working conditions for personnel.

Unconfined Space

An unconfined space (such as an open basement) must have a minimum volume of 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU/HR

input of the total of all appliances in the area. Adjoining rooms may be counted as one area only if there are no doors

between the rooms.

Air Contaminants

Compounds bearing contaminants such as chloride, fluoride, iodide, and bromide, when present in certain

concentrations in the air supplied for combustion to the boiler, can result in an accelerated and severe corrosion

condition in the heat exchanger and/or the venting systems. Avoid storing or using chemicals containing these

compounds in the vicinity of the boiler if at all possible.

CAUTION:

Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heat exchanger

in the boiler.

INSTALLATION

WARNING:

Read all of the instructions included with your machine before attempting

any installation. Faulty vent installation can cause improper operation of

the gas fired boiler.

Vent Installation

General

The CSS-130 gas fired boiler is approved as a Category I Boiler when the following vent installations are

used:

1. Common vent installation

2. Vertical through-the-roof vent installation

3. Masonry chimney vent installation using Type B-1 Double-wall vent.

The CSS-130 is approved as a Category III Boiler when a horizontal through-the-wall vent installation

is used. This installation is a positive pressure venting system and requires that all connections be

sealed with an approved high temperature sealant.

Refer to the specific venting installation section for detailed instructions.

Vent installation must be in compliance with Part 7 "Venting of Equipment", of the National Fuel Gas

Code; ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition, (In Canada, to the Canadian installation code, CAN/CGA-B149),

local codes, or ordinances, these instructions, and good trade practices.

Existing Boiler Removal

When an existing boiler is removed from a venting system serving other appliances, the venting system is

likely to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached appliances. Perform the following steps

individually with each appliance that remains connected to the common vent system placed in operation

with the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system but not in operation.

If improper venting is observed during any of the following tests, the common venting system must be

corrected.

1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.

2. Visually inspect the vent system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine that there is no

blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion, and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe

condition.

3. As far as practical, close all building doors and windows plus all doors between the space which the

appliances remain connected to the common vent system are located and the other spaces of the

building.

Existing Boiler Removal (Cont'd)

4. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance NOT connected to the common vent system. Turn on any

exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts so they will operate at maximum speed. DO

NOT operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

5. Follow the lighting instructions of the appliance being tested and place the appliance in operation.

Adjust the thermostat so the appliance operates continuously.

6. After five minutes of main burner operation, test for air spillage at the draft hood relief opening. Use

the flame of a match or candle, or the smoke from a cigarette, cigar, or pipe.

7. Repeat steps for each appliance connected to the common vent system.

After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common vent system properly

vents when tested as outlined above, return all doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers, and any

other gas burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.

If necessary the common vent should be re-sized to approach the minimum size as

determined by using the appropriate tables in Appendix G in the National Fuel Gas Code,

ANSI Z223.1-Latest Edition.

For Canada, the installation of this unit must conform to all Canadian local codes as applicable or,

in the absence of local codes, to the Canadian installation code, CAN/CGA-B149.

The boiler should not be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate appliance that is designed to burn solid

fuel.

No portion of the venting system can extend into, or pass through any circulating air duct or plenum.

All vent pipe passing through floors, walls, and ceilings must be installed with the listed clearance to combustible

materials and be fire stopped according to local codes.

Common Venting

Vent connectors serving Category I appliances shall not be connected to any portion of the mechanical draft systems

operating under positive pressure such as Category III or Category IV venting systems.

When two or more vent connectors enter a common gas vent, chimney flue, or a single-wall metal pipe, the smaller

of the connectors shall enter at the highest level consistent with the available headroom or clearance to combustible

material.

Vent connectors shall be firmly attached to draft hood outlets or flue collars by sheet metal screws or other approved

means, except vent connectors of listed Type B-1 vent material (which shall be assembled in accordance with the

vent manufacturer's instructions). Fasten joints between sections of single-wall connector piping with sheet metal

screws or other approved means.

INSTALLATION (CONT'D) Vent

Installation

Common Venting (Cont'd)

Horizontal portions of the venting system must be supported at least every 5 feet with metal straps to

prevent sagging. All horizontal sections of the vent connection must slope upwards 1/4 inch per foot

from the boiler to the vent termination (See Figure 5 below).

The vent connector should be routed to the vent using the shortest route possible.

The entire length of a vent connector shall be readily accessible for inspection, cleaning, and

replacement.

Vertical Venting

The CSS-130 is certified for use with up to 50 equivalent feet of 3" diameter pipe for vertical

vent installations. A 90° elbow equals 5 equivalent feet of pipe.

Vent pipe and fittings must be securely supported horizontal sections require supports every 5 feet. Fire

stops can support up to ten feet of vertical run.

Galvanized or stainless steel vent pipe may be used for vertical runs. Stainless

steel vent pipe must be used for horizontal runs.

Type B-1 Double-walled vent connector.

The following requirements must be met to use this type of vent installation:

1. The chimney must be internal lined or internal B vent type.

2. An external or unlined chimney may serve as a chase for the use of high temperature plastic pipe

alternative venting provided that no other equipment is vented into the chimney. The chimney may

have an approved liner installed into the flue.

3. Two (2) or more vent connectors, from either power or natural draft units, may enter a common gas

vent provided that they conform to the provisions and tables of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA54- Latest Edition, or applicable provisions of local building code. For Canada, the

installation of this unit must conform to all Canadian local codes as applicable or, in the absence of

local codes, to the Canadian installation code, CAN/CGA-B149.

4. None of the vent connectors may be connected to equipment with a positive vent pressure.

5. The unit must be located as close to the chimney as possible to provide the shortest vent

connector.

Installation

Refer to Fig. 8 on page 11, and note the dimensions (H, L, D, and A).

These dimensions are taken in to consideration when determining the vent and

vent connector requirements. Follow the procedure below to size the venting.

Determine the height of the chimney or Type B-1 vent and the length of the lateral run. Select the proper

vent connector diameter from Table 11-2, Table 11-2a or Table 11-3 shown on pages 12-13. These tables

were derived from Tables 11-2 and Table 11-3 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54-

Latest Edition.

Install and adaptor at the flue outlet of the boiler to step up to the diameter of the vent connector. Install

elbows for the vent connector if required. All elbows should be the full size of the vent connector.

Caution:

Do Not install a three inch (3") elbow between the flue outlet on the boiler and the

adaptor.

Install the vent connector between the elbows, if used, and the chimney. Slope the vent connector

upwards toward the chimney 1/4" minimum per foot of lateral run.

Secure all joints in accordance with the vent manufacturer's instructions for Type B-1

vent material.
