1.4.8 “Indoor Air” Combustion Air Intake
Using Indoor Combustion Air is not approved for use with the DC series boilers /
water heaters.
1.4.9 Closet Installations
For installations in a conned space (such as a closet), ventilation openings may
be needed through a door or wall to prevent excessive heat from building up
inside the space.
The boiler / water heater shall not be exposed to ambient conditions above 122°F
(50°C) or below 32°F (0°C).
CONDENSATE REMOVAL
IBC’s specied vent conguration promotes the safe drainage of moisture from
the boiler / water heater and exhaust venting without owing liquids back through
the heat exchanger.
Reliable system operation requires (1) proper design and installation of exhaust
venting to allow condensate to run back to the drain/trap; (2) acid neutralization
as appropriate. To achieve these:
1. Allow for a 1/4" per foot slope back to the vent connection, with appropriate
hangers to maintain that gradient.
2. Ensure the supplied trap is correctly installed and lled with water.
3. When required, add (and maintain in good condition) a neutralization tank.

WARNING
The Trap Hook must be
installed as instructed and all
trap ttings must be tightened
as instructed to prevent
leakage of ue gasses.
Failure to comply may result
in severe personal injury or
death.
WARNING
Fill trap with water before
boiler / water heater is rst
red to prevent exhaust
fumes from entering room.
Never operate the boiler /
water heater unless the trap is
lled with water.
Failure to comply will result
in severe personal injury or
death.
