Inspect Chimney or Direct Vent System

Inspect the chimney or vent. Make sure it is properly sized and in good working condition. Follow the in- structions supplied by the appliance manufacturer.

Combustion Air Supply Information

!WARNING Adequate Combustion and Ventilation Air Supply

Required

Failure to provide adequate air supply could se- riously affect the burner performance and result in damage to the equipment, asphyxiation, ex- plosion or fire hazards.

The burner cannot properly burn the fuel if it is not supplied with a reliable combustion air source.

Follow the guidelines in the latest editions of the NFPA 31 and CSA-B139 regarding providing ad- equate air for combustion and ventilation.

See NFPA Standard 31 for complete details.

Appliances located in confined spaces: All

confined spaces should have two (2) permanent openings; one near the top of the enclosure and one near the bottom of the enclosure. Each open- ing must have a free area of not less than one (1) square inch per 1,000 BTU’s per hour of the total input rating of all appliances within the enclosure. The openings should have free access to the build- ing interior, which should have adequate infiltration from the outside.

Exhaust fans and other air-using devices: Size air openings large enough to supply all air-using devices in addition to the minimum size required for combustion air. If there is any possibility of the equipment room developing a negative pressure due to exhaust fans, clothes dryers, etc., either pipe combustion air directly to the burner or provide a sealed enclosure for the burner and supply it with its own combustion air supply.

Direct/Sidewall Venting Application

·When sidewall venting appliances, carefully follow appliance and power venter instructions for instal- lation and wiring.

·AFII burners are equipped with a removable air in- let to allow use of a 4” duct to supply outside air for combustion. Do not exceed 70 equivalent feet. Allow 6 feet for each elbow.

1.Remove the inlet cover.

2.Insert 4” duct into the inlet ring.

3.Fasten duct into place using at least 3 sheet met- al screws evenly spaced around the inlet ring. Refer to Figure 2.

4.Remove the barometric draft control unless it is in the same atmospheric pressure zone as the inlet.

On the outside of the home use a 90° elbow pointed downward with a 1/4” mesh screen over its opening. The air inlet elbow must be located above the snow line and in such a way as to prevent leaves and/or other debris from blocking the air flow. Such debris will prevent proper operation of the burner. Refer to local codes for proper location of inlet.
