To prevent condensation in the furnace and vent system, the
following precautions must be observed:
1. The return-air temperature must be at least 60°F db except for
brief periods of time during warm-up from setback at no lower
than 55°F db or during initial start-up from a standby
condition.
2. Adjust the gas input rate per the installation instructions. Low
gas input rate causes low vent gas temperatures, causing
condensation and corrosion in the furnace and/or venting
system. Derating is permitted only for altitudes above 2000 ft.
3. Adjust the air temperature rise to the midpoint of the rise range
or slightly above. Low air temperature rise can cause low vent
gas temperature and potential for condensation problems.
4. Set the thermostat heat anticipator or cycle rate to reduce short
cycling.
Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen com-
pounds which include chlorides, fluorides, bromides, and iodides.
These compounds are found in many common home products such
as detergent, paint, glue, aerosol spray, bleach, cleaning solvent,
salt, and air freshener, and can cause corrosion of furnaces and
vents. Avoid using such products in the combustion-air supply.
Furnace use during construction of the building could cause the
furnace to be exposed to halogen compounds, causing premature
failure of the furnace or venting system due to corrosion.
Vent dampers on any appliance connected to the common vent can
cause condensation and corrosion in the venting system. Do not
use vent dampers on appliances common vented with this furnace.
