KN INSTALLATION AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONSPage 3RATINGS & CAPACITIESBefore installing the KN boiler check the rating plate toensure that the unit has been sized properly for the job.Also ensure that the unit has been set up for the typeof gas available at the installation site. Other importantconsiderations are the availability of an adequateelectrical supply, fresh air for combustion and a suitablechimney or vent system.BOILER LOCATION1. This boiler is suitable for indoor installations only.Locate the boiler in an area that provides goodaccess to the unit. Servicing may require theremoval of jacket panels. Allow the minimumclearances between adjacent construction and theboiler as listed in Table 1.NOTE: Service clearances are not mandatory, butare recommended to ensure ease of service shouldit be required.Table 1 - ClearancesClearance to ServiceCombustibles Clearancein mm in mmTop 6 153 24 610Back 6 153 24 610Left Side 6 153 24 610Right Side 6 153 24 610Front 6 153 36 914Flue 6 1532. An optimum site will be level, central to the pipingsystem, close to a chimney or outside wall and haveadequate fresh air for combustion. Ensure that theunit is level from front to back and from side to side.Use metal shims if leveling is required. Electrical andelectronic components must be protected fromexposure to water during operation and maintenance.DO NOT install this boiler in a location that wouldsubject any of the gas ignition and other electroniccomponents to direct contact with water or excessivemoisture during operation or servicing.3. Ensure that the floor is structurally sound and willsupport the weight of the boiler.NOTE: The KN may be installed directly oncombustible flooring, but never on carpeting.4. Locate the boiler in an area that will prevent waterdamage to adjacent construction should a leakoccur or during routine maintenance.5. DO NOT place this boiler in a location that wouldrestrict the introduction of combustion air into theunit or subject it to a negative pressure unless thecombustion air is piped from the outside, see theCOMBUSTION AIR & VENTILATION section.6. NEVER place this boiler in a location that wouldsubject it to temperatures at or near freezing. Seethe FREEZE PROTECTION SECTION on page 7.WARNING: Never store combustible materials,gasoline or any product containing flammablevapors or liquids in the vicinity of the boiler.Failure to comply with this warning can resultin an explosion or fire causing extensiveproperty damage, severe personal injury ordeath!COMBUSTION AIR & VENTILATIONWARNING: This boiler must be supplied withcombustion air in accordance with Section 5.3,Air for Combustion & Ventilation, of the latestrevision of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSIZ223.1/NFPA 54 and all applicable local buildingcodes.
