WARNING:
Any home ventilation system, such as a
cooktop with a downdraft mechanism, may
interfere with the proper flow of exhaust
products or combustion air required by gas
furnaces, gas water heaters, fireplaces, or
other naturally vented systems. To minimize
the chance of interference with such naturally
vented systems, follow the heating equipment
manufacturer's guidelines, and local codes.
Also follow tim guidelines in
ASHRAE
Standard 62-1989, "Ventilation for Acceptable
Indoor Air Quality", section 5.8. When
following these guidelines, be sure to test for
proper airflow direction into the draft hood of
a naturally vented gas furnace oi" water heater.
This can be checked by striking a match,
blowing it out, and while it is still smoking,
holding it near the draft hood relief opening.
If smoke is drawn into the opening, vent flow
is in tim proper direction. If tim
ASHRAE
Standard 62 guidelines are not satisfied, a
positive supply of outside air may have to be
suf)plied.
In
the absence of local codes, the gas cooktop
must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1, latest edition.
