1. Draft Requirement – Minimum draft required in the  
vent system is -.03" to -.06" W.C. depending on  
boiler model, see Table 7.1 (Section 7). This draft is  
necessary to provide the necessary draft over fire of  
-.01" to -.02" W.C. See discussion in paragraph 5

The old installation would  
have had a higher  
temperature in the chimney  
[as high as 800 degrees vs.

sure it is in good condition. Inspect chimney liner  
and repair or replace if necessary.  
The above readings are "cold" readings (before the  
boiler and chimney are heated up).  
4. The vent system and installation must be in  
accordance with the current edition of the American  
National Standard ANSI/NFPA 211, "Chimneys,  
Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel Burning  
Note also that the higher the firing rate on a unit  
which has multiple firing rates, the higher the draft  
required. For example, increasing the firing rate 1/4  
gallon may increase the draft loss in a unit by  
approximately +.01".  
Appliances," or applicable provisions of the local  
building codes. Typical minimum chimney size is  
8" x 8", 15 feet high, unless otherwise allowed by  
code. If the vent system is not sized properly, the  
burner may not operate properly. This can cause  
poor combustion, sooting and odors to occur.  
D. INSTALLATION SURVEY  
For new and existing installations, a Water Installation  
Survey or a Steam Installation Survey is available from  
P.B. Heat, LLC. The surveys will provide information on  
how the boiler works with your specific system and will  
provide an overview of boiler system operation in  
general.  
5. Background Information Regarding Draft:  
Modern boilers operate with higher efficiencies than  
older boilers. Smaller flueways, as well as bars, pins  
and fins are designed into modern boilers to transfer  
as much heat as possible from the hot gases to the  
water or steam and prevent heat loss up the  
chimney. However, these design features result in  
higher pressure, or draft loss, in the boiler.  
You can also use this survey to locate system problems  
which will have to be corrected. To obtain copies of  
these Surveys, contact your PB Heat representative or  
download it from PeerlessBoilers.com.  
This draft loss must be taken into account when  
installing an oil boiler into a new or old chimney.  
New chimneys are less likely to have poor draft.  
However, they must have sufficient draft to support  
combustion. A -.06" draft is desirable and preferred.  
Older chimneys may require a replacement liner to  
have them perform well enough to support  
combustion.  
E. PLANNING THE LAYOUT  
Prepare sketches and notes of the layout of the  
installation. Include boiler location, venting system,  
existing piping and wiring. Show existing equipment that  
may interfere with installation of new equipment.

(item 5) at this time to make certain the target wall  
(item 2) is seated in the back of the combustion  
chamber. (WBV-04/WV-05) Ceramic fiber blanket  
base liner (item 3) should be lying flat on bottom of  
combustion chamber between target wall and burner  
mounting plate. Close burner mounting plate.  
3. Attach both the left and right side panels to the back  
panel and secure with sheet metal screws.  
4. Remove the burner mounting plate (item 5) and  
make certain the target wall (item 2) is in correct  
position in back of chamber. Ceramic fiber blanket  
liner (item 3, WBV-04 and WV-05) should be on  
floor of boiler in front of target wall.  
4. See clearance information in Section I,  
"Preinstallation."  
5. Remove the two (2) knockouts in the front jacket  
panel which will allow clearance for the hinge. Place  
the front jacket panel on the block and attach the left  
and right side panels in the same manner as they are  
attached to the back panel.  
B. CONNECTING THE FLUE OUTLET  
The WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models may be  
installed as a rear flue outlet unit or a top flue outlet  
unit. Packaged WBV-03 and WBV-04 boiler models are  
shipped as rear flue outlet and may be converted. The  
WV-05 boiler model is only available as a top flue outlet  
unit. On Knockdown boilers, the flue outlet components  
are located in the water trim or steam trim carton.  
6. Reinstall the burner mounting plate.  
1. If converting to a top flue application on a packaged  
boiler, remove the large knockout in the jacket top  
panel.  
2. On Knockdown boilers, install the flue collector  
coverplate and blanket seal (items 10 and 11) on top  
of the block assembly using four (4) 5/16" x 1-1/2"  
studs, nuts and washers provided.  
3. Mount the flue collar adapter and rope seal (items  
14 and 12) to either the rear boiler section for a rear  
flue application, or to the flue collector cover plate  
(item 11) for a top flue application. Use 5/16" hex  
head bolts for rear flue outlet, and sheet metal  
screws for top flue outlet.

BURNER SETUP & BOILER OPERATION  
Do not leave boiler unattended while  
firing burner. Operating boiler with  
water below minimum permissible  
water level may fracture sections.  
CAUTION  
E. CLEAN THE BOILER  
(STEAM BOILERS ONLY)  
1. Clean the boiler within one week after initial start-up.  
Cleaning will be more effective if boiler operates a  
day or two to loosen sediment and impurities in  
system.  
7. Turn on burner. Allow boiler water to heat up to just  
below steaming (180 - 200°F). Do not allow boiler to  
steam; steaming mixes up contaminants instead of  
floating them at surface.  
2. Boiler must be cleaned to remove any accumulation  
of oil, grease, sludge, etc. in the system. These  
substances can cause foaming and surging of boiler  
water, producing an unstable water line and water  
carryover to system.  
8. Open make-up water valve to continually feed water  
to boiler. Adjust flow to maintain water temperature  
at 180 - 200° F.  
Do not allow make-up water to flow  
CAUTION  
Cleaning the boiler requires the use  
too fast. Excessive quantities of cold

chemicals. Use care when handling  
to prevent injury.  
9. Continue skimming boiler until water flowing from  
skim tapping flows clear. This will take some time,  
possibly several hours for a dirty system.  
3. Connect a skim valve off the 1-1/4 NPT skim tapping  
on front of boiler. See WBV Steam Boiler Figure 7.2  
(Section 7) to locate skim tapping. Run a drain line  
off skim valve to a point of safe discharge.  
10. Turn off burner, close make-up water valve.  
11. Drain boiler completely. Refill and drain one or two  
times to wash out all washing soda.  
4. Provide a means of supplying continuous fresh water  
to the boiler for the cleaning process.  
12. Remove skim valve and piping. Install 1-1/4"NPT plug  
in skim tapping.  
5. Use common washing soda, such as Arm and  
Hammer Super Washing Soda. Mix 1/2 pound of  
soda with water in a 10 quart pail. Pour the mixture  
into the boiler through the safety relief valve tapping.  
If gauge glass becomes dirty more

WARNING  
Product Safety Information  
Refractory Ceramic Fiber Product  
This appliance contains materials made from refractory ceramic fibers (RCF). Airborne RCF,  
when inhaled, have been classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer  
(IARC), as a possible carcinogen to humans. After the RCF materials have been exposed to  
temperatures above 1800°F, they can change into crystalline silica, which has been classified  
by the IARC as carcinogenic to humans. If particles become airborne during service or  
repair, inhalation of these particles may be hazardous to your health.  
Avoid Breathing Fiber Particulates and Dust  
Suppliers of RCF recommend the following precautions be taken when handling these  
materials:  
Precautionary Measures:  
Provide adequate ventilation.  
Wear a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator.  
Wear long sleeved, loose fitting clothing and gloves to prevent skin contact.  
Wear eye goggles.  
Minimize airborne dust prior to handling and removal by water misting the material and  
avoiding unnecessary disturbance of materials.  
Wash work clothes separately from others. Rinse washer thoroughly after use.  
Discard RCF materials by sealing in an airtight plastic bag.  
First Aid Procedures:  
Inhalation: If breathing difficulty or irritation occurs, move to a location with fresh clean air.  
Seek immediate medical attention if symptoms persist.  
Skin Contact: Wash affected area gently with a mild soap and warm water. Seek immediate  
medical attention if irritation persists.  
Eye Contact: Flush eyes with water for 15 minutes while holding eyelids apart. Do not rub  
eyes. Seek immediate medical attention if irritation persists.  
Ingestion: Drink 1 to 2 glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical  
attention.

MAINTENANCE  
A. GENERAL  
C. WEEKLY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER  
OPERATING)  
1. Check pipes adjacent to cold walls or in unheated  
spaces. Insulate and tape them if necessary to be  
sure they can't freeze up. Keeping the water moving  
at all times will reduce the likelihood of freezing.  
1. Flush float-type low-water cut-off (if used) to remove  
sediment from the float bowl as stated in the  
manufacturer's instructions.  
2. If there is considerable foreign matter in the boiler  
water, the boiler should be shut down and allowed to  
cool, then drained and thoroughly flushed out. Drain  
the boiler at the drain cock. Pipe the drain cock to a  
suitable drain or containment device (if antifreeze is  
used). Flush the system to remove remaining matter.  
If there is evidence that hard scale has formed on the  
internal surfaces, the boiler should be cleaned by  
chemical means as prescribed by a qualified water  
treatment specialist.  
D. MAINTENANCE OF SAFETY RELIEF  
VALVE  
1. Check function and maintain safety relief valve as  
specified by manufacturer, typically every other  
month or every month, per the instructions on the  
tag on the safety relief valve.  
E. MONTHLY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER  
OPERATING)  
3. There must be no signs of continuous wetness at the  
chimney. If signs of continuous wetness are  
observed, a qualified service agency must be  
consulted to modify the vent configuration to prevent  
the formation of condensate, which may damage the  
vent pipe.  
1. Check boiler room floor drains for proper  
functioning.  
2. Test probe type low-water cut-off (if used) by using  
the Push-to-Test Button.  
Do not use this appliance if any part  
WARNING  
Turn off power to boiler before  
has been under water. Improper or  
dangerous operation may result.  
Immediately call a qualified service  
technician to inspect the boiler and  
to replace any part of the control  
system and any control which has  
been under water.  
CAUTION  
adjusting limit control.  
3. Test limit by lowering the limit set point until the  
burner shuts down. When proper operation is  
confirmed, return the set point to original setting.  
4. Follow additional instructions in the Burner Manual  
for proving the burner component operation.  
B. DAILY MAINTENANCE (WITH BOILER  
OPERATING)  
F. MAINTENANCE – ANNUAL  
Daily boiler observation can be performed by the owner.  
If any potential problems are found, a qualified installer  
or service technician/agency must be notified.  
Entire heating system, including  
NOTICE  
boiler, burner and venting system,  
must be inspected at least once a  
year by a qualified heating  
professional. Boiler is to be cleaned  
at least once a year.  
1. Remove any combustible materials, gasoline and  
other flammable liquids and substances that generate  
flammable vapors from the area where the boiler is  
contained. Make certain that the boiler area has  
ample air for combustion and ventilation and that  
there are no obstructions to the free flow of air to  
and from the boiler.  
Disconnect all power to the burner  
WARNING  
before accessing combustion  
chamber.  
2. Observe general boiler conditions (unusual noises,  
vibrations, etc.)  
TO CLEAN:  
1. Remove top jacket panel and flue collector cover  
plate, Item 11 (Figure 2.1 or 2.2).  
3. Observe operating temperature and/or pressure  
gauge on the boiler. Boiler pressure should never be  
higher than 5 psi below the rating shown on the  
safety relief valve. The valve rating can be found on  
the top of the safety relief valve. Boiler temperature  
should never be higher than 250°F.  
4. Check for water leaks in boiler and system piping.

MAINTENANCE  
2. To thoroughly clean the boiler it must be brushed  
G. IF A LONG SHUTDOWN IS REQUIRED  
down from the top. Alternatively, for limited space or  
minimum clearance to combustible installations,  
cleaning the heat exchanger from the combustion  
chamber side is acceptable. If unit is extremely dirty, it  
may be necessary to brush from both directions. The  
target wall is made of a soft ceramic fiber. Care must  
be taken not to damage this material during cleaning.  
1. To take boiler out of service if the boiler and system  
are not to be used when temperatures are below  
freezing:  
a. Drain the boiler and system completely and shut  
off make-up water supply.  
b. Open main line power disconnect switch to  
boiler. Remove the fuses or secure the switch so  
that the power cannot be turned on accidentally.  
3. Remove any scale or soot from the combustion  
chamber area by vacuum cleaning or any other  
available means.  
2. Be certain that the boiler and system are refilled  
before returning to service.  
Burner mounting plate must be  
opened to facilitate this operation.  
NOTICE  
Always keep the manual fuel supply  
CAUTION  
4. Replace oil burner and flue collector cover plate  
making sure all gaskets are in place.  
valve shut off if the burner is shut  
down for an extended period of time.  
5. Replace jacket top panel.  
All cover plates, enclosures, and
