Removal of an existing unit
For each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system, you
must follow the steps below. Before you begin, ensure that any other appliances
connected to the common venting system are not in operation.
Seal any unused opening in the common venting system.
Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch, and
determine that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and
other deficiencies that could cause an unsafe condition.
Where practical, close all building doors and windows. This includes closing
the doors of the appliances remaining connected to the common venting
system. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the
common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods
and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not
operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
Place in operation the appliance being inspected. Follow the lighting
instructions. Adjust the thermostat, so that the appliance operates
continuously.
After determining that each appliance remaining connected to the common
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.
Correct any improper operation of the common venting system to ensure that
the installation conforms to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 - latest
edition. In Canada, all installations must conform to the current CAN/CGA -
B149.1 Installation Code and/or local codes.
