UNIT CORROSION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced furnace component life.

Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen compounds, which include fluoride, chloride, bromide, and iodide. These elements may corrode heat exchangers and shorten furnace life. Air contaminants are found in aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air fresheners, and other household products.

Attachment of Combustion Air Intake Housing Plug Fitting

The combustion-air intake plug fitting must be installed in unused combustion air intake housing. This fitting must be attached by using RTV sealant, or by drilling a 1/8-in. hole in fitting, using hole in intake housing as a guide. Install a field-supplied No. 6 or No. 8 sheet metal screw.

NOTE: DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN SCREW. Breakage of intake housing or fitting may cause air leakage to occur.

A plugged drain connection has been provided on this fitting for use when moisture is found in combustion air intake pipe and combustion box.

If use of this drain connection is desired, drill out fitting’s tap plug with 3/16-in. drill and connect a field-supplied 3/8-in. tube. This tube should be routed to open condensate drain for furnace and A/C (if used), and should be trapped, as shown in Fig. 40.

NOTE: (Direct Vent / 2-Pipe System ONLY). Moisture in combustion air intake may be a result of improper termination. Ensure combustion air pipe termination is similar to those as shown in Fig. 36 so that it will not be susceptible to area where light snow or others sources of moisture could be pulled in.

Combustion Air Termination - Ventilated Combustion Air Option

Provisions for adequate combustion, ventilation, and dilution air must be provided in accordance with:

SU.S. Installations: Section 9.3 NFPA 54/ANSI

Z223.1-2006, Air for Combustion and Ventilation and applicable provisions of the local building codes.

SCanadian Installations: Part 8 of CAN/CS-B149.1-05. Venting Systems and Air Supply for Appliances and all authorities having jurisdiction.

Combustion air is piped directly to the burner box on furnace using the same materials used to vent the furnace. (See Table 5.) The combustion air pipe is terminated in an attic or crawl space that is well ventilated with OUTDOOR AIR and is well isolated from the living space or garage. If the furnace is installed in a well ventilated attic, crawlspace or other enclosure, the combustion air pipe can be terminated in the same space.

The combustion air pipe cannot be terminated in attics or crawlspaces that use ventilation fans designed to operate during the heating season. If ventilation fans are present in these areas, the combustion air pipe must terminate outdoors as a Direct Vent/ 2-Pipe system.

!WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

The operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation fans, clothes dryers, attic exhaust fans or fireplaces could create a NEGATIVE PRESSURE CONDITION at the furnace. Makeup air MUST be provided for the ventilation devices, in addition to that required by the furnace. Refer to the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard warning at the end of this section to determine if an adequate amount of make-up air is available.

NOTE: Combustion air pipe must have the same diameter as vent pipe.

An attic or crawlspace may be considered a space that freely communicates with the outdoors provided there are adequate permanent ventilation openings directly to outdoors having free area of at least 1-in.2/4,000 Btuh of total input rating for all gas appliances in the space.

NOTE: In determining the free area of an opening, the blocking effect of the louvers, grilles, and screens must be considered. If the free area of a louver or grille design is unknown, it may be assumed that wood louvers have a 20 percent free area, and metal louvers or grilles have a 60 percent free area. Screens, when used, must not be smaller than 1/4-in. mesh. Louvers and grilles must be constructed so they cannot be closed.

!WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

Many homes require air to be supplied from outdoors for furnace combustion, ventilation, and dilution of flue gases.

The furnace combustion air supply must be provided in accordance with this instruction manual.

Attic terminations require at least (1) 90 degree elbow, with the open end pointing horizontally or downward. The open end of the elbow must be at least 12-in. (305 mm) above any insulation
