2.3 LOCATING 

THE 

FURNACE

 (Fig. S101-1, Fig. S101-4)

 

 

The location of the furnace must be as close as possible to the tile-lined brick chimney, or 
factory-built solid-fuel approved chimney (ULC S629).  Keep in mind also the day-to-day 
operation, and place for ease of fueling and cleaning.  Kerr recommends installation if 
possible, in a central location in relation to the outlet registers and the use of large warm air 
ducts to improve heat distribution during a power failure. 

 

It is important to provide adequate combustion air to the furnace.  It may be necessary to add a 
ventilator to an exterior wall of a closed furnace room or an airtight basement. 

 

The furnace must be installed so that the clearances as shown in Fig. S101-1 or those of local 
authorities are met.  If the furnace must be installed on a combustible floor, a non-combustible 
base must be built as shown in Fig. S101-4.  Two layers of hollow masonry block (4” thick) are 
placed at right angles to each other so that the ventilation holes of one layer are opposite to 
those of the other layer.  Also there must be a minimum of one layer of fireproof board and one 
layer of 26 gauge galvanized metal beneath the masonry blocks.  This base must extend 
beyond the furnace to a minimum distance of 18 in (457 mm) in front and 8 in. (204 mm) on all 
sides.
