Figure 11. Bypass Duct Dimensions
1 . Refer to
to determine pressure drop and allowable CFM for furnace being installed . For
example: model RP unit size
150
@ 5
0°F
temperature rise = pressure drop of
0.38
and CFM of
2,210
.
2 . Subtract allowable CFM from blower CFM to determine how much air must be diverted through bypass duct . For
example: blower CFM of
3,000
− allowable CFM of
2,210
= bypass CFM of
790
.
3 . Refer to
to determine bypass duct size as follows:
a . Go to column closest to pressure drop through heater .
b . Move down to CFM closest (round up) to CFM determined in step 2 .
c . Move to left column to determine required bypass duct size . For example: in pressure drop column
0.40
, move
down to bypass CFM row
900
and move left to dimension A column
3 inches
.

NOTE: Not all capacities are covered above . If your installation is not covered, consult your distributor or the factory representative to
determine the appropriate size of the bypass duct .
Venting Connections
•
Locate power-vented furnaces so that flue discharge is not directed at fresh air inlets . The flue discharge openings
are located on the side of the furnace just above the control access panel . The position of this opening discourages
recirculation of combustion products and provides for furnace operation in all normal weather conditions .
• Optional vertical flue discharge (option CC3):
These power vented furnaces are certified with 4 feet of vertical
pipe connected as shown in
, DETAIL A . The distance is measured from the top of the unit to the bottom
of the vent cap . The vent pipe and supports are field-supplied . Optional vertical vent piping provides compliance
with local codes that require either 10-foot horizontal or 4-foot vertical clearance between the flue outlet and the
fresh air intake of the heating system and/or building . The option package (PN 45021) includes the 5-inch vent
cap, the adapter assembly, and the seal plate as shown in
, DETAIL B . Attach venter seal plate and
oval adapter assembly with sheet metal screws . Use venter seal plate as drill template .
