All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.
NOTICE: The furnace model series CMA may be vented either through the sidewall or the roof. For sidewall instructions, continue to the following section. For roof venting, refer to Section IV J, of this manual.
NOTICE: The air intake pipe must be supported every 4 feet. After making sure the length of the piping is correct, glue all connections in place except the connection to the burner box.
If the combustion air piping is installed in a warm humid place, such as a laundry room or above a suspended ceiling, it must be insulated with a 1.0” foil faced insulation or its equivalent.
If the vent piping is run through an unconditioned space, it must be insulated with a 1.0” foil faced insulation or its equivalent.
: Outside combustion air must not come from an area that is directly adjacent to a pool, hot tub or spa. Measures should be taken to prevent the entry of corrosive chemicals or vapors to the combustion and ventilation air supply. Such chemicals include but are not limited to chlorinated and/or fluorinated hydrocarbons such as found in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, dry cleaning fluids, degreasers and removers. Other harmful compounds may come from bleaches, air fresheners or mastics. Vapors from such products can form acid compounds when burned in a gas flame. Should acid compounds form in your furnace, it may reduce the life of the furnace.
