NOTE: The following instructions comply with the ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 National Fuel Gas Code and CSA B149.1 Natu-

ral Gas and Propane Installation code, based on the input rate on the furnace rating plate.

1, If a Category ] vent passes through an attic, any concealed space or floor, use ONLY Type B or Type L double wall vent pipe. If vent pipe passes through interior wall, use Type B vent pipe with ventilated thimble ONLY.

2.Do NOT vent furnace into any chimney serving an open fire- place or solid fuel burning appliance.

3.Use the same diameter Category ] connector or pipe as per- mitted by:

the National Fuel Gas Code Code (NFGC) ANSI

Z223.1-2002 /NFPA 54-2002 sections 10 and 13 vent-

ing requirements in the United States

the National Standard of Canada Natural Gas and Pro-

pane Installation Code (NSCNGPIC) CSA B149.1-05

section 7 and appendix C venting requirements in Cana- da.

4, Push the vent connector onto the furnace flue collar of the venter assembly until it touches the bead (at least 5/8" overlap)

and fasten with at least two field-supplied,corrosion-resist- ant, sheet metal screws located at least 140 ° apart.

5.Keep vertical Category [ vent pipe or vent connector runs as short and direct as possible.

6.Vertical outdoor runs of Type-B or ANY single wall vent pipe below the roof line are NOT permitted.

7.Slopeallhorizontalrunsupfromfurnacetotheventterminala minimum of 1/4" per foot (21 mm/m).

8.Rigidly support all horizontal portions of theventing system ev- ery 6'or less using proper clamps and metal straps to prevent sagging and ensure there is no movement after installation.

9.Check existing gas vent or chimney to ensure they meet clear- ances and local codes. See Figure 1

10.The furnace MUST be connected to a factory built chimney or vent complying with a recognized standard, or a masonry or concrete chimney lined with a lining material acceptable to the

authority having jurisdiction.			Venting	into	an unlined		ma-
sonry chimney	or concrete		chimney	is prohibited.		See	the
6. Masonry	Chimney	Venting section			in these	instruc-
tions.

11. Fan-assisted combustion system Category ] furnaces shall

not be vented into single-wall metal vents.

12.Category ] furnaces must be vented vertically or nearly verti- cally, unless equipped with a listed mechanical venter.

13.Vent connectors serving Category I furnaces shall not be con- nected into any portion of mechanical draft systems operating under positive pressure.

Venting and Combustion Air Check

NOTE: When an existing Category I furnace is removed or re- placed, the original venting system may no longer be sized to prop-

erly vent the attached appliances, and to make sure there is

adequate combustion air for all appliances, MAKE THE FOL-

LOWING CHECK.

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each

appliance connected to the venting system being placed

into operation, could result in carbon monoxide

poisoning or death:

The following steps shall be followed for each appliance

connected to the venting system being placed into

operation, while all other appliances connected to the venting system are not in operation:

1 .Seal any unused openings in the venting system.

2.Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal

pitch, as required in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI

Z223,1/NFPA 54 or CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and

Propane Installation Code and these instructions. Deter-

mine that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, cor- rosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe

condition.

3.As far as practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliance(s) connected to the venting system are located and other spaces of the building.

4.Close fireplace dampers.

5.Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as

range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they are operating at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan.

6.Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being

inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat so appliance is operating continuously.

7.Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle. (Figure 9)

8.If improper venting is observed, during any of the above tests, the venting system must be corrected in accordance

with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223,1/NFPA 54

and/or CSA B149, 1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

9.After it has been determined that each appliance con- nected to the venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans,

fireplace dampers and any other gas-fired burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.
