UMMARY
This checklist serves as a summary of the items to be checked
before venting an 80+ furnace into a masonry chimney. In addi-
tion, we recommend that a qualified serviceman use this check-
list to perform a yearly inspection of the furnace venting sys-
tem.
This checklist is only a summary. For detailed information on
each of the procedures mentioned, see the paragraph refer-
enced with each item.
This inspection is based upon a draft topical report, "Masonry
Chimney Inspection and Relining", issued by the Gas Research
Institute. While not yet finalized, we believe this report repre-
sents the best information on this subject which is currently
available.
