When resizing any portion of the common venting system,
use the appropriate table in Appendix G in the latest edition
of the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1.
Upflow or Horizontal units
are shipped with the induced
draft blower discharging from the top of the furnace ("Top"
is as viewed for an upflow installation). The induced draft
blower can be rotated 90 degrees for Category I venting.
Refer to the following figure. For horizontal installations, a
four inch single wall pipe can be used to extend the induced
draft blower outlet 1/2” beyond the furnace cabinet. Vent the
furnace in
accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA
54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition. In Canada, vent the furnace
in accordance with the National Standard of Canada, CAN/
CGA B149.1 and CAN/CGA B149.2 - latest editions and
amendments.

Checklist Summary
This checklist serves as a summary of the items to be
checked before venting an 80% furnace into a masonry
chimney. In addition, we recommend that a qualified ser
-
viceman use this checklist to perform a yearly inspection of
the furnace venting system.
This checklist is only a summary. For detailed information
on each of the procedures mentioned, see the paragraph
referenced with each item.
This inspection is based upon a draft topical report, "Ma-
sonry Chimney Inspection and Relining", issued by the Gas
Research Institute. While not yet finalized, we believe this
report represents the best information on this subject which
is currently available.
