Appliance Application Requirements - Payne PG8J Installation Instructions Manual

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.
To prevent condensation in the furnace and vent system, the
following precautions must be observed:
1. The return- -air temperature must be at least 60_F db except
for brief periods of time during warm- -up from setback at
no lower than 55_F db or during initial start- -up from a
standby condition.
2. Adjust the gas input rate per the installation instructions.
Low gas input rate causes low vent gas temperatures, caus-
ing condensation and corrosion in the furnace and/or vent-
ing system. Derating is permitted only for altitudes above
2000 ft.
3. Adjust the air temperature rise to the midpoint of the rise
range or slightly above. Low air temperature rise can cause
low vent gas temperature and potential for condensation
problems.
4. Set thermostat heat anticipator or cycle rate to reduce short
cycling.
