COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR (cont.)
A. 1 Square inch for each 3,000 BTUH of the total input rat-
ing of all equipment located in the enclosure
and
B. Not less than the sum of the areas of all vent connectors
in the confined space.
If the unit is installed where there is an exhaust fan, sufficient
ventilation must be provided to prevent the exhaust fan from cre-
ating negative pressure.
AIR INTAKE PIPE CONNECTION
A double-elbow may be installed to top inlet air opening,
BUT IS NOT REQUIRED. This will help to prevent accidental
blockage of the intake opening. Reference Figure 13 for
proper elbow diameter.
NOTE:
Inlet is specifically designed to prevent material from
being pulled into furnace. If elbows are not used, the intake open-
ing must be kept clean and free of debris.
ATTACH OPTIONAL DOUBLE ELBOW TO TOP INLET AIR
OPENING TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL BLOCKAGE OF
INTAKE OPENING. THIS IS NOT A REQUIREMENT. (SEE
PREVIOUS PAGE.) SINGLE ELBOW IS ALLOWED BUT
MAY NOT PREVENT DEBRIS FROM BEING DROPPED
INTO THE FURNACE.
