Solo Plus Series Clearances

BOILER PLACEMENT REQUIREMENTS

• The boiler must be placed on a level, non-combustible floor, such as, a concrete slab. Many owners choose to raise the boiler 8" above the floor to make loading and cleaning more convenient. Four inch solid concrete blocks are often used for this purpose.


• Refer to the diagram below for the required minimum clearances between the boiler and combustibles or combustible surfaces. Smoke pipe clearances also are shown. Please keep in mind that these are minimum clearances for safety. For easy cleaning and maintenance of your boiler we recommend 24" of clearance each side of the boiler and 48" in front.

• Boiler placement should permit as direct a chimney connection as is practical. Consideration needs to be given to which boiler flue collar location you will be using - the rear or the right side. In some cases, local code requires use of a separate flue for each of the wood-fired and gas-fired boiler sections. In this case, you will need two separate chimney flues and both rear the right side boiler flue collars. Tarm USA has flue collars available should you need a second one. The EXCEL has been tested and listed for use with a single chimney flue with either gas or oil backup, but local code dictates what you will need to use.
