Additionally, the liner must be insulated according to the
insulating
procedure
recommended
by
the
manufacturer of the liner.
Side-wall Vented:
Using the Beckett AFII or Riello 40-BF burner with the
integral pre and post purge controls, the system can be
side-wall
vented
with
the
new DV-2000
TM
venting
system for maximum efficiency, and without the use of a
side-wall power ventor. The unit will be operated at a
positive overfire draft and stack draft.
Poison carbon monoxide

Chimney
installations:
The oil furnaces, when set up for chimney venting, are
certified for use with L-vent, A-vent, tile-lined and metal-
liner-tile-lined chimneys, and can be vented both with
and without a barometric draft damper. However, the
furnace has not been certified without the barometric
damper when it is to be co-vented with another oil-fired
appliance, such as a water heater.
When a damper is used, the basement air entering the
damper reduces the possibility of vent condensation.
However,
if the barometric
damper
is not used, a
chimney liner with insulation must be employed.
With a barometric damper:
The appliance
may be installed in a chimney of the
proper size and adequate chimney base temperature as
specified in the Installation Code. The relevant excerpt
from the code is found in this section - Use it as a guide
when local or national codes do not exist.
Without a barometric damper:
Due to the lack of dilution air that would ordinarily be
drawn into the barometric damper, the dew point of the
flue gasses is raised. To offset the increased tendency
for vent condensation,
the chimney
must be lined.

install
a hand

damper
in
the vent pipe.
However,
any Underwriters

Failure

vent
this
furnace
or
other
appliances
can
result
in property
damage,
personal injury and/or death.
Vent connectors:
For installations without barometric damper, the vent
connector should be as short as possible and either be
of double
wall
construction,
or be of single
wall
construction
insulated with 1" of insulation,
tt should
rise a minimum of 1/4" per foot from the furnace to the
chimney.
Field fabricated
connectors
should
be a
minimum of 28 gauge. The joints must be mechanically
secure and there must be no flue product leakage at the
joints.
CAUTION
When the furnace
(chimney
installation)
is co-
vented with other combustion
appliances
such
as
a water
heater,
the
allowable
venting
materials
(i.e. L-Vent etc.) for use with those
appliances
should also be investigated.
Flue pipe sizing:
The following table is an except from the installation
code and indicates permitted flue sizes and minimum
base temperatures
for circular flues in chimney with
thermal resistance less than R6 (6 ft2 ohr o°F / Btu).
Where a new appliance, burner, or chimney is installed,
chimney
vent
sizes
and
maximum
flue-gas
temperatures (measured at the chimney connector with
the
barometric
damper
shut,
after
5
minutes
of
operation) shall comply with the table #2.
