Installing The Exhaust Flue - Conair GasTrac User Manual

WARNING: Do not operate the GasTrac
!
without a properly installed exhaust flue.
You must install an exhaust flue to vent the combus-
tion gases produced by the GasTrac. The installation
should comply with government codes in your area
and be done by a qualified mechanical contractor
familiar with industrial flue and ducting systems.
The GasTrac is a forced draft system, using a variable speed
combustion blower and a sealed combustion chamber. The tem-
perature of combustion gases in the flue can reach 750˚ F.

Condensate occurs where flue gases cool below their dew
point. This condensate can be highly corrosive. Draining
and disposal should be done in compliance with applicable
safety and environmental codes in your area.
