appliances and exhaust equipment
• Ensure furnace and air conditioning return vents are not
located in the immediate vicinity of the appliance
• Avoid installing the appliance near doors, walkways or
small isolated spaces

E. Inspection of Appliance and Components
• Remove appliance and components from packaging
and inspect for damage.
• Report to your dealer any parts damaged in shipment.
• Read all the instructions before starting the
installation. Follow these instructions carefully
during the installation to ensure maximum safety
and benefit.
WARNING
Fire Risk.
Inspect appliance and components for damage.
Damaged parts may impair safe operation.
• Do NOT install damaged components.
• Do NOT install incomplete components.
• Do NOT install substitute components.
Report damaged parts to dealer.
F. Draft
Draft is the pressure difference needed to vent appliances
successfully. When a appliance is drafting successfully, all
combustion by products are exiting the home through the
chimney.
Considerations for successful draft include:
• Preventing negative pressure
• Location of appliance and chimney
To be sure that your appliance burns properly:
• During a low burn, the chimney draft (static pressure)
should be approximately -.04 inch water column (W.C.)
• During a high burn the chimney draft should be
approximately -.10 inch (W.C.)
• Measure the W.C at 6 inches (152mm) above the top
of the appliance after one hour of operation at each
burn setting.
