I need the I & O manual for an old American Standard FHW boiler.

The boiler is a M/N 6-29-DG, Series #1BR-J2.

The boiler is approximately 38 years old. If has an input of 240,000 btu, and an output of 192,000 btu.

Lobster dinner for two, (and a double ration of GROG :)
for the one who provides that manual. (No kidding)

Thanks in advance,

    Model #

    Ed,

    That does not appear to be a good model number. Could the first "letter" be a "G" instead of a "6"? i.e. G-29-DG?

    M/N of boiler

    Dan,

    Ill check the M/N again. These old eyes are not what they used to be. (33 years in the field looking at HVAC systems).

    I probably wont get to check until after the weekend. Is there a manual for a G?

    Regards,

    Ed

    Manual

    Ed,

    I have a manual from 1963 that covers the American Standard G-2 series gas boiler. It covers the G-23 to G-27 models.

    Sounds like

    the G-2 Series gas boiler. Boiler number is G-29

    Steam rating 144 MBH

    Water rating 167 MBH

    Input 240 MBH

    It's in the Hydronic Rating Handbook, but I don't have the I/O manual, Ed. Sorry.
    Retired and loving it.
