Boiler Assembly and Placement
2A. Field Assembly
The Mini-Therm JV is available in two congurations.
The JVH has a hot surface ignition pilot and integral
draft fan, and the JVS has an electronic intermittent
ignition device (I.I.D.). Look for the model designation
on the rating plate, which can be found on right side of
the boiler, just above the drain.
The Laars automatic vent dampers are standard on
all JVS models. The Laars side wall power venters
can be used on JVS models. Special instructions for
their installation are included in the vent damper and
power venter package. Read them carefully before
installation.
