INSTALLATION

Continued

4.Turn on clothes dryers and any other appliances not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan.

5.Close fire place dampers.

6.Place in operation the unit being inspected. Follow the lighting instructions. Adjust thermostat so unit will operate continuously.

7.Test for spillage at the draft hood/relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a cigarette, cigar or pipe.

8.After making sure that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and other gas burning appliances to their previous conditions of use.

9.Correct any improper operation of the common venting system so that the installation conforms to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada, the latest edition of CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment. When resizing any portion of the common venting system, resize to approach the minimum size as determined using the appropriate tables of the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, in Canada, the latest edition of CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment.

Masonry Chimney Installations

A masonry chimney must be properly sized for the installation of a high efficiency gas-fired appliance. Venting of a high efficiency appliance into a cold or oversized masonry chimney can result in operational and safety problems. Exterior masonry chimneys, with one or more sides exposed to cold outdoor temperatures, are more likely to have venting problems. The temperature of the flue products from a high efficiency appliance may not be able to sufficiently heat the masonry structure of the chimney to generate proper draft. This will result in condensing of flue products, damage to the masonry flue/tile, insufficient draft and possible spillage of flue products into an occupied living space. Carefully inspect all chimney systems before installation.

Inspection of a Masonry Chimney

A masonry chimney must be carefully inspected to determine its suitability for the venting of flue products. A clay-tile-lined chimney must be structurally sound, straight and free of misaligned tile, gaps between liner sections, missing sections of liner or any signs of condensate drainage at the breeching or clean out. If there is any doubt about the condition of a masonry chimney, it must be relined with a properly-sized and approved chimney liner system. An unlined masonry chimney must not be used to vent flue products from this high- efficiency unit. An unlined chimney must be relined with an

approved chimney liner system when a new appliance is

being attached to it. Metallic liner systems (Type-B double- wall or flexible or rigid metallic liners) are recommended. Consult with local code officials to determine code requirements or the advisability of using or relining a masonry chimney.

Vertical Vent Termination Clearances and Location

Follow all vertical venting termination information for clearances and location under Vertical Vent Termination

Clearances and Location, page 10.

2. Outdoor Installation Venting

IMPORTANT: Before installing a venting system, follow all venting clearances and requirements found in the Venting, General Information section, page 10.

Units are self-venting and can be used outdoors when installed with the optional outdoor caps. These caps mount directly to the unit and cover the flue outlet and combustion air inlet openings. No additional vent piping is required.

￿WARNING: Only install outdoor models outdoors and only use the vent caps supplied by the appliance manufacturer. Personal injury or product damage may result if any other cap is used or if an outdoor model is used indoors. Properly install all covers, doors and jacket panels to ensure proper operation and prevent a hazardous condition.

Combustion air supply must be free of contaminants (see Combustion and Ventilation Air, page 8). To prevent recirculation of the flue products into the combustion air inlet, follow all instructions in this section.
