INTRODUCTION (CONT'D)
THIS IS A HEATING APPLIANCE
improperly sized venting system (formation of condensate, leakage,
spillage, etc.) and shall specify the following test procedure:
5.
Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected
to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such
as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they are
operating at maximum speed. Do operate a summer
exhaust fan.
6.
Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance
being inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat
so appliance is operating continuously.
7.
Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances
at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main
burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
8.
If improper venting is observed during any of the
above tests, the venting system must be corrected in
accordance with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54 and/or Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Code, CSA B149.1.
9.
After is has been determined that each appliance
connected to the venting system properly vents when
tested as outlined above, return doors, windows,
exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-fired
burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.
•
DO keep the appliance area clear and free from combus-
tible material, gasoline and other flammable vapors and
liquids.
•
DO examine venting system periodically and replace
damaged parts.
•
DO make a periodic visual check of pilot and burners.
Clean and replace damaged parts.
