Removing Existing Appliance When an existing appliance is removed from a common venting system, the common venting system is likely to be too large for proper venting of the remaining appliances. At the time of removal of an existing appliance, the following steps should be performed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system. Make sure the appliances are not in operation while carrying out these steps. 1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system. 2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and ensure there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition. 3. Insofar as is practical, close all exterior doors and windows, and all doors between the space where the appliances connect to the common venting system and other spaces of the building. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range-hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maxi-...

For all sidewall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment installed in every dwelling, building or structure used in whole or in part for residential purposes and where the sidewall exhaust vent termination is less than seven (7) feet above grade, the following requirements shall be satisfied: a. If there is no carbon monoxide detector with an alarm already installed in compliance with the most current edition of NFPA 720, NFPA 70 and the Massachusetts State Building Code in the residential unit served by the sidewall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment, a battery operated carbon monoxide detector with an alarm shall be installed in compliance with the most current edition of NFPA 720, NFPA 70 and the Massachusetts State Building Code. b. In addition to the above requirements, if there is not one already present, a carbon monoxide detector with an alarm and a battery back-up shall be installed and located in accordance with the installation requirements supplied with the detector on the floor level where the gas equipment is installed. The carbon monoxide detector with an alarm shall comply with 527 CMR, ANSI/UL 2034 Standards or CSA 6.19 and the most current edition of NFPA 720. In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can not be met at the time of the completion of the installation of the equipment, the installer shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with this requirement; provided, however, that during said thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon monoxide detector with an alarm shall be installed in compliance with the most current edition of NFPA 720, NFPA 70 and the Massachusetts State Building Code.

The PFC heat exchanger adds pressure drop to the system which must be accounted for in the design of the piping configuration and pump selection. 2. For systems with glycol mixture, the flow rate specified in Table 21 will increase as specified in Table 25 due to the extra frictional loss introduced by the glycol. Size pump accordingly. 3. Strictly follow glycol manufacturer’s guidelines and recommendations when adding glycol in the heating system. 4. The system should be designed to maintain the recommended water flow rate shown in Table 21 while never exceeding the range of absolute flow rates shown in Table 24. Exceeding the maximum water flow rates can cause pipe erosion, damage the flow switch, and allow unsafe operation. a. Maintaining sufficient flow through the boiler will help prevent the buildup of scale.
