Size the Vent and Combustion Air Pipes
General
Furnace combustion air and vent pipe connections are sized for 2-in. (50
mm ND) PVC/ABS DWV pipe. The combustion air and vent pipe
connections also accommodate 60 mm polypropylene venting systems
with outside diameters of approximately 60 mm (2-3/8 inches). Any pipe
diameter change should be made outside furnace casing in vertical pipe.
Any change in diameter to the pipe must be made as close to the furnace
.
The Maximum Vent Length for the vent and combustion air pipe (when
used) is determined from the Maximum Equivalent Vent Length
(
) minus the number of fittings multiplied by the deduction for
each type of fitting used, see
A200089
NOTE:
Only connect combustion air inlet moisture drain downstream of the furnace trap assembly as shown.

NOTICE
!
OPTIONAL CONFIGURATION FOR COMBUSTION AIR INLET
PIPE
In applications where there is a risk of excessive moisture entering the
combustion air inlet pipe, a moisture trap may be added to the inlet pipe
to help prevent moisture from entering the furnace from the combustion
air inlet pipe, see
.
When sizing venting systems, the equivalent length of the optional
moisture trap (15 feet/5 M) must be taken into account.
