Bryant 313AAV Exterior Masonry Chimney FAN + NAT, Installations with Type-BDouble Wall Vent

313A

Canada (and U.S.A.)-This furnace is permitted to be vented into a clay tile-lined masonry chimney that is exposed to the outdoors below the roof line, provided:

1.Vent connector is Type-B double-wall, and

2.This furnace is common vented with at least 1 draft hoodequipped appliance, and

3.The combined appliance input rating is less than the maximum capacity given in Table A, and

4.The input rating of each space heating appliance is greater than the minimum input rating given in Table B for the local 99% Winter Design Temperature. Chimneys having internal areas greater than 38 square inches require furnace input ratings greater than the input ratings of these furnaces. See footnote at bottom of Table B, and

5.The authority having jurisdiction approves.

If all of these conditions cannot be met, an alternative venting design shall be used, such as the listed chimney adapter kit with these furnaces, which are listed for use with the kit, a listed chimney-lining system, or a Type-B common vent.

Inspections before the sale and at the time of installation will determine the acceptability of the chimney or the need for repair and/or (re)lining. Refer to the Fig. 33 to perform a chimney inspection. If the inspection of a previously used tile-lined chimney:

a. Shows signs of vent gas condensation, the chimney should be relined in accordance with local codes and the authority having jurisdiction. The chimney should be relined with a listed metal liner, Type-B vent, or a listed chimney adapter kit shall be used to reduce condensation. If a condensate drain is required by local code, refer to the NFGC NFPA54/ANSI Z223.1-2006, Section 12.10 for additional information on condensate drains.

b.Indicates the chimney exceeds the maximum permissible size in the tables, the chimney should be rebuilt or relined to conform to the requirements of the equipment being installed and the authority having jurisdiction.

A chimney without a clay tile liner, which is otherwise in good condition, shall be rebuilt to conform to ANSI/NFPA 211 or be lined with a UL listed (ULC listed in Canada) metal liner or UL listed Type-B vent. Relining with a listed metal liner or Type-B vent is considered to be a vent-in-a-chase.

If a metal liner or Type-B vent is used to line a chimney, no other appliance shall be vented into the annular space between the chimney and the metal liner.

APPLIANCE APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS

Appliance operation has a significant impact on the performance of the venting system. If the appliances are sized, installed, adjusted, and operated properly, the venting system and/or the appliances should not suffer from condensation and corrosion. The venting system and all appliances shall be installed in accordance with applicable listings, standards, and codes.

The furnace should be sized to provide 100 percent of the design heating load requirement plus any margin that occurs because of furnace model size capacity increments. Heating load estimates can be made using approved methods available from Air Conditioning Contractors of America (Manual J); American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers; or other approved engineering methods. Excessive oversizing of the furnace could cause the furnace and/or vent to fail prematurely. When a metal vent or metal liner is used, the vent must be in good condition and be installed in accordance with the vent manufacturer’s instructions.
