General information 1.2 Boiler Installation This section describes the steps to installing and starting-up the boiler. This section is directed at the installer. 1.2.1 Planning Sizing the Boiler It is critical to size the boiler properly. A proper up to date heat load calculation is advised.
Use of a suitable antifreeze mix is allowed, but will cause a loss in heat transfer efficiency. Froling GmbH, Industriestrasse 12, A-4710 Grieskirchen, Austria Page 9 www.froling.com M1060008_US...
If in doubt, it is advisable to provide additional air. The Froling FHG, due to its powerful Induced Draft Fan, needs adequate air to make up for the air being pushed up the Chimney, especially during start up before the Chimney is warm.
A tankless hot water coil is not available for the Froling FHG boiler. Tarm Biomass recommends the use of the BLTCONTROL (available through Tarm Biomass) when burning the wood boiler in conjunction with a back up boiler.
General information Combination with Thermal Storage System The Froling FHG boiler is required to be installed with a Thermal Storage System, this system may require periodic maintenance. Please review the periodic maintenance requirements of the thermal storage system with the owner / system operator.

10 feet (3.0 m) measured horizontally. For the Froling FHG 20, 30, 40 and 50 best draft will be provided by a Chimney which has an 6” ID round flue, is 20-30 feet (6 – 9 m) in height and which is located inside the heated structure.
General information system, should rarely be off while a fire is present. If however, an irregular or excessively high draft presents problems, the solution is the use of a barometric draft regulator. Installation requirements for a barometric damper (draft regulator). - The diameter of the draft regulator must be equal or greater than that of the Chimney connector.
