EXISTING FURNACE REMOVAL
NOTE: When an existing furnace is removed from a venting system
serving other appliances, the venting system may be too large to
properly vent the remaining attached appliances.
The following vent testing procedure is reproduced from the
American National Standard/National Standard of Canada for
Gas-Fired Central Furnaces ANSI Z21.47-1998, CSA-2.3-M98
Section 1.23.1. The following steps shall be followed with each
appliance connected to the venting system placed in operation,
while any other appliances connected to the venting system are
not in operation:
a.Seal any unused openings in the venting system;
b.Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal
pitch, as required by the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 or the CAN/CSA B149 Installation Codes and these
instructions. Determine that there is no blockage or
restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which
could cause an unsafe condition;
c. In so 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. 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 shall operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a
summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers;
d.Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being
inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so appliance shall
operate continuously;
e.Test for draft hood equipped appliance spillage at the draft
hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation.
Use the flame of a match or candle;
f. After it has been determined that each appliance connected
to the venting system properly vents when tested as outlined
above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace
dampers and any other gas burning appliance to their
previous conditions of use;
g.If improper venting is observed during any of the above
tests, the common venting system must be corrected.
