Testing for Proper Venting and Sufficient Combustion Air for Non-Direct Vent Applications

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure  to  follow  the  steps  outlined  below  for  each 

appliance  connected  to  the  venting  system  being 

placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide 

poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance 

connected  to  the  venting  system  being  placed  into 

operation, while all other appliances connected to the 

venting system are not in operation.

 WARNING

After  the  gas  furnace  has  been  started,  the  following 

test  should  be  conducted  to  ensure  proper  venting  and 

sufficient combustion air has been provided to the unit as 

well as to other gas fired appliances which are separately 

vented.

If  this  furnace  replaces  a  Category  I  furnace  which  was 

commonly  vented  with  another  gas  appliance,  the  size 

of  the  existing  vent  pipe  for  that  gas  appliance  must  be 

checked.  Without  the  heat  of  the  original  furnace  flue 

products, the existing vent pipe is probably oversized for 

the single water heater or other appliance. The vent should 

be checked for proper draw with the remaining appliance.

The test should be conducted while all appliances (both 

in operation and those not in operation) are connected to 

the venting system being tested. If the venting system has 

been installed improperly, or if provisions have not been 

made for sufficient amounts of combustion air, corrections 

must be made as outlined in the previous section.

1.  Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2.  Visually  inspect  the  venting  system  for  proper  size 

and horizontal pitch. Determine there is no blockage 

or restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deficiencies 

which could cause an unsafe condition.

3.  To the extent that it is practical, close all building doors 

and  windows  and  all  doors  between  the  space  in 

which the appliances connected to the venting system 

are located and other spaces of the building. 

4.  Close fireplace dampers.
5.  Turn  on  clothes  dryers  and  any  appliances  not 

connected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust 

fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so 

they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a 

summer exhaust fan. 

6.  Follow the lighting instruction to place the appliance 

being inspected into operation. Adjust thermostat so 

appliance will operate continuously.

7.  Use the flame of a match or candle to test for spillage 

of flue gases at the draft hood relief opening after 5 

minutes of main burner operation. 

8.  If  improper  venting  is  observed  during  any  of  the 

above tests, the venting system must be corrected or 

sufficient  combustion/makeup  air  must  be  provided. 

The venting system should be resized to approach the 

minimum size as determined by using the appropriate 

tables in appendix G in the current standards of the 

National Fuel Gas Code ANSI-Z223.1/NPFA 54 in the 

U.S.A., and the appropriate Natural Gas and Propane 

appliances venting sizing tables in the current standard 

of the CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation 

Codes in Canada.

9.  After  determining  that  each  appliance  remaining 

connected  to  the  common  venting  system  properly 

vents when tested as indicated in step 3, return doors, 

windows,  exhaust  fans,  fireplace  dampers  and  any 

other gas burning appliance to their previous condition 

of use.
