3.6 Combustion Air and Ventilation▲!WARNINGCARBON MONOXIDE POISIONING HAZARD!VENTILATION REQUIRED!OIL BOILER/BURNER COMBUSTION AIR OPE-NING MUST NOT BE OBSTRUCTED OR BLOC-KED. THESE OPENINGS SUPPLY COMBUSTIONAND VENTILATION AIR TO THE BOILER.FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULDRESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING ORDEATH.Important: All aspects of the installation of thisboiler, including materials, methods of providingcombustion air and methods of venting products ofcombustion to the outdoors must comply with all localcodes and the following national standards:1) CSA B139 (most recent edition) - Installation Codefor Oil Burning Equipment (Canada)2) NFPA 31 (most recent edition) - Standard for theInstallation of Oil Burning Equipment (US)3) NFPA 211 (most recent edition) - Standard forChimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Soild Fuel BurningAppliancesChloride, fluoride, iodide, and bromide bearing compoundswhen present, even in low concentrations, inair supplied for combustion to the boiler, can result inaccelerated and severe corrosion of the heat exchangerand/or the venting system. Often, householdchemicals contain chloride-bearing compounds. Thereare many compounds representative of this classificationof chemicals. A few common examples are:- Cleaning solvents- Varnish and paint removers- Bleaches- Fabric softeners- Water softener saltAvoid storing or using these chemicals within closeproximity to the boiler. In addition, avoid storing orusing any chemicals, of an unknown and possiblyflammable nature, in close proximity to the boiler. Ifit is necessary to store or use chemicals in the samespace as the boiler, the area should be well-ventilatedand all containers should be sealed when not in use.If possible, keep chemicals in a separate, well ventilated,room closed off from the boiler.The boiler shall be installed in a location within thebuilding that permits a satisfactory supply of air forcombustion, ventilation, and proper operation of theventing system. While all forms of building constructioncannot be covered in detail in this installer’sguide, this requirement may usually be met byapplication of one of the following methods in ordinarybuilding construction.
