Supply Air Connections
For a furnace not equipped with a cooling coil, the outlet duct shall be
provided with a removable access panel. This opening shall be
accessible when the furnace is installed and shall be of such a size that
the heat exchanger can be viewed for possible openings using light
assistance or a probe can be inserted for sampling the air stream. The
cover attachment shall prevent leaks.
