Fyrite Tech

Atmospheric Burner or 

Gravity Vented Forced Air

Hot Water Tank

4.1.4  Sampling Point

Forced Air Furnace

 – When testing atmospheric burner or gravity 

vented, forced air heating equip ment with a clamshell or sectional heat 

exchanger design, test each of the exhaust ports at the top of the heat ex-

changer. The probe should be inserted back into each of the exhaust ports 

to obtain a 

fl

 ue gas sample, before any dilution air is mixed in.

Hot Water Tank 

– Domestic hot water tanks with the ‘bell’ shaped draft 

diverter on top can be accurately tested by inserting the probe tip directly 

into the top of the 

fi

 re tube be low the diverter.

80% Ef

fi

 ciency Fan Assist or Power Vented

 – Combustion testing of 

fan assist or power vented, furnaces/boilers should be done through a hole 

drilled in the vent immediately above the inducer fan.

90% Ef

fi

 ciency Condensing

 – Condensing furnaces/boilers can be tested 

through a hole drilled in the plastic vent pipe (when allowed by the manufac-

turer or local authority of jurisdiction) or taken from the exhaust termination.

Atmospheric or Gravity Vented Boiler

 – Boilers, which have a ‘bell’ 

shaped draft diverter directly on top, should be tested directly below the 

diverter through a hole drilled in the vent connector.
