Removal of the Furnace from Common Vent
In the event that an existing furnace is removed from a
venting system commonly run with separate gas ap-
pliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to
properly vent the remaining attached appliances,
Conduct the following test while each appliance is operat-
ing and the other appliances (which are not operating) re-
main connected to the common venting system. If the
venting system has been installed improperly, you must
correct the system as indicated in the general venting re-
quirements section.
1 - Seal any unused openings in the common venting sys-
tem,
2 - Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal
pitch, Determine that there is no blockage, restriction,
leakage, corrosion, or other deficiencies which could
cause an unsafe condition,
3 - Close all building doors and windows and all doors be-
tween the space in which the appliances remaining
connected to the common venting system are located
and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dry-
ers and any appliances not connected to the common
venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as
range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will oper-
ate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer ex-
haust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
4 - Follow the lighting instructions, Turn on the appliance
that is being inspected, Adjust the thermostat so that
the appliance operates continuously,
5 - After the main burner has operated for 5 minutes, test
for leaks of flue gases at the draft hood relief opening,
Use the flame of a match or candle, or smoke from a
cigarette, cigar, or pipe,
6 - After determining that each appliance connected to the
common venting system is venting properly, (step 3)
return all doors, widows, exhaust fans, fireplace damp-
ers, and any other gas-burning appliances to their pre-
vious mode of operation,
7 - If a venting problem is found during any of the preced-
ing tests, the common venting system must be modi-
fied to correct the problem,
