I Product Description The BWF series boiler is a cast iron gas fired boiler designed for use in forced hot water heating systems. The BWF is intended for installations where a usable chimney is not available. The BWF is normally vented using an approved vertical or horizontal AL29-4C stainless steel venting system, which is not included with the boiler. If a suitable chimney is available, the BWF series can be vented into it using an optional BWF Category I Vent Kit available from Crown

3) Do not install this boiler in an area where large amounts of airborne dust will be present, such as a workshop. Do not install in a location where sources of hydrocarbons will be stored or used. Some common sources of hydrocarbons include bleaches, fabric softeners, paints, cleaners, refrigerants, and cat boxes. Traces of these chemicals can be drawn into the boiler, causing severe corrosion damage to the boiler and/or objection

V Air for Combustion and Ventilation Sufficient fresh air must be supplied for both combustion and ventilation. Provisions for combustion, ventilation, and dilution air for gas utilization equipment must be made in accordance with local building codes, or in the absence of such codes, in accordance with Sections 5.3.3 and 5.3.4 (“Air for Combustion and Ventilation”) of the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1. To ensure an adequate combustion and ventilation air supply

VI Venting There are three basic ways to vent the BWF boiler: • Horizontal (“side wall”) venting using an approved AL29-4C stainless steel vent system. • Vertical venting using an approved AL29-4C stainless steel vent system. • Chimney venting using a masonry or “B” vent chimney and a special Category I Vent Kit available from Crown. WARNING DO NOT ATTEMPT TO VENT A BWF SERIES BOILER INTO A MASONRY OR “B” VENT CHIMNEY WITHOUT THE CROWN CATEGORY I VENT KIT SHOWN IN TABLE

5) Minimum Vent Pipe Length: 2 ft + (1) 90 degree elbow + terminal 6) Permitted Terminals: • Choice of Tjernlund VH1 series terminal, a 90-degree elbow with rodent screen, or a termination tee with a rodent screen. The Tjurnlund VH1 terminals may not be used on BWF195s and BWF 229s when they are vented with 3” pipe. If the Tjurnlund terminal is used, select one of the following: BWF061 to BWF162: Tjernlund VH1-3 (Crown #50-032) 3” terminal BWF195, BWF229: Tjernlund VH1-4 (Crown #50

12) Location of Horizontal Vent Terminal – Observe the following limitations on the terminal location: • Terminal must be at least 4 feet below or 4 feet horizontally from any window, door, or gravity air inlet into the building (Fig. 10). • The bottom of the terminal must be at least 12” above the normal snow line. In no case should it be less than 12” above grade level (Fig 10). • The bottom of the terminal must be at least 7 feet above a public walkway. • The bottom of t

Vertical Vent System Design 1) See Figure 13 for the general vertical stainless steel venting configuration. For the purposes of this manual, a “vertical exhaust system” is a Category III vent system that exits the structure through a roof. 2) Approved Systems – Use one of these four approved vent systems: • Flex-L-International Star-34 • Z-FLEX SVE SeriesIII (“Z-Vent III”) • Heat Fab Saf-T Vent • ProTech Systems FasNSeal 3) Vent Pipe Size: • BWF061 to BWF162– 3”

4) Maximum Vent Pipe Length: • BWF061 to BWF162 – 39.5 ft + (2) 90 degree elbows + cap • BWF195, BWF229 (using 4” vent pipe): 37 ft + (2) 90 degree elbows + cap • BWF195, BWF229 (using 3” vent pipe): 24.5 ft + (2) 90 degree elbows + cap • Reduce the above maximum straight pipe runs by the equivalent length from Table 4 for each additional elbow beyond the first two. Example: A vertical vent system is planned for a BWF162 that has the following components: 2 ft vertical pipe 1 9
