Vent Damper

Normal Operation Summary

For safe, efficient operation, the vent damper and all

flue product carrying areas of the appliance must be

checked annually, with particular attention given to

deterioration from corrosion or other sources. Check

vent damper operation as follows:

1. When the boiler is off, check that the vent damper

position indicator points to the closed position. (See

figure below.)

2. Turn the thermostat or controller up to call for heat

and check that the vent damper indicator points to the

open position. (See figure below.)

3. Turn the thermostat or controller down again and

check that the vent damper position indicator returns

to the closed position.

NOTE: The vent damper must be inspected at least

once a year by a trained, experienced service

technician. The name of the person who originally

installed your vent damper is shown on the

installation label. Damper must be in open position

when boiler main burners are operating.

Gas piping must have a sediment trap ahead of the

boiler gas controls, and a manual shut-off valve locat-

ed outside the heater jacket. All gas piping should be

tested after installation in accordance with local codes.
