APPENDIX G – ChECkING DRAFT AND COMBUSTION

CHECK DRAFT (GAS BOILERS WITH DRAFT HOODS)

1.

  Insofar as is practical, close all doors and 

windows in the building.

2.

  Turn on all appliances not connected to the 

same venting system as the boiler being 

checked.

3.

  Turn on all exhaust fans (such as range 

hoods and bathroom exhausts) to their 
maximum speed.  Do not turn on any 
summer exhaust fans.

4.

  Close all fireplace dampers.

5.

  Operate the appliance being checked. 

Follow lighting instructions.

CHECK COMBUSTION

1.

  Use a flue gas analyzer that accurately 

measures CO

2

, O

2

, CO, and flue gas 

temperature.

2.

  Operate the boiler at its rated (high fire) 

input.

3.

  With the analyzer, check the CO

2

 (or O

2

), 

CO and temperature of the flue gases 

exiting the boiler.

4.

  Confirm that the measured CO

2

 (or O

2

matches the required CO

2

 (or O

2

) specified 

for the boiler.

.

  If CO

2

, O

2

, or CO fall outside of the 

             range specified for the boiler, review the 

installation and startup instructions and make any 

necessary adjustments to the boiler or associated 

venting or piping systems.

 

          

i        

  Note the gross flue gas temperature for   

           future reference.  Significant changes in 
           flue gas temperature can indicate changes 
in the boiler’s operating efficiency.

6.

  After 5 minutes of main burner operation, 

test for spillage at the draft hood relief 

opening, using a lighted match, candle, 

cigarette, etc.

7.

  Repeat this test for each appliance 

connected to the common venting system.

8.

  If any appliance does not vent properly, per 

the above test, make corrections, so that the 

installation conforms to the 

National Fuel 

Gas Code

NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1

, and/or 

Installation Codes

CAN/CSA B149.1.

9. 

Return doors, windows, exhaust fans, 

fireplace dampers, and any other gas-

burning appliance to their previous condition 

of use.
