vent terminations and flexible vent pipes, and for calculating total vent
lengths.
To calculate the Total Equivalent Vent Length (TEVL) of the venting
system:
1. Measure the individual distance from the furnace to the termination
for each pipe.
2. Count the number of elbows for each pipe.
3. For each pipe, multiply the number of elbows by the equivalent
length for the type of elbow used. Record the equivalent length of
all the elbows for each pipe.
4. If a Tee is used on the termination (Alberta and Saskatchewan,
when required) record the equivalent length of the Tee used.
5. Calculate Total Equivalent Vent Length by adding the equivalent
lengths of the fittings to the lengths of the individual vent and
combustion air pipes.
6. When using polypropylene venting systems with flexible vent
pipes, perform adjustments for the equivalent length of the flexible
vent pipe to the calculated total equivalent venting system length.
See the polypropylene vent system manufacturer’s instructions for
details.
7. Select a diameter of vent pipe from Table 13 and note the
Maximum Equivalent Vent Length (MEVL) shown for that
application for that specific furnace input size. Compare the Total
Equivalent Vent Length (TEVL) to the MEVL:
8. If the Total Equivalent Vent Length is shorter than the Maximum
Equivalent Vent Length for the diameter of pipe chosen, then that
diameter of pipe selected may be used.
9. If the Total Vent Length is longer than the Maximum Equivalent
Vent Length for the diameter of pipe chosen, that diameter pipe
MAY NOT be used for venting the furnace. Try the next larger
diameter pipe
.
NOTE: If the calculated Total Equivalent Vent Lengths results in
different diameter pipes for the vent and combustion air, select the larger
diameter for both pipes.
NOTE: If the Maximum Vent Length for diameter of the pipe selected is
longer than the measured length and the equivalent length of all the
fittings and terminations (TEVL), recalculate Total Equivalent Vent
Length using the next smaller diameter. If the Maximum Equivalent
Vent Length is still longer than the longer TEVL of the vent pipe or
combustion air pipe, then that diameter of pipe selected may be used.
When installing vent systems pipe lengths of 10 ft. (3 M) or less, use the
smallest allowable pipe diameter. Using a pipe size greater than required
for short venting systems may result in loss of efficiency, incomplete
combustion, flame disturbance, or flame sense lockout.
For vent systems longer than 10 ft. (3 M), any larger diameter vent pipe
shown in Table 13 FOR THAT SIZE FURNACE may be used.
Combustion Air and Vent Piping Insulation
Guidelines
NOTE: Use closed cell, neoprene insulation or equivalent.
The vent pipe may pass through unconditioned areas. The amount of
exposed pipe allowed is shown in Table 12 .
1. Using winter design temperature (used in load calculations), find
appropriate temperature for your application and furnace model.
2. Determine the amount of total and exposed vent pipe.
3. Determine required insulation thickness for exposed pipe length(s).
4. When combustion air inlet piping is installed above a suspended
ceiling, the pipe MUST be insulated with moisture resistant
insulation such as Armaflex or other equivalent type of insulation.
5. Insulate combustion air inlet piping when run in warm, humid
spaces.
6. Install the insulation per the insulation manufacturer’s installation
instructions.
NOTE: Pipe length (ft. / M) specified for maximum pipe lengths located
in unconditioned spaces cannot exceed total allowable pipe length as
calculated from Table 13 .
Configure the Furnace
Near Furnace Vent Connections
Offsets in the vertical portion of the vent pipe should be made with 45
deg. elbows instead of 90 deg. elbows. Short horizontal runs of vent pipe
are difficult to pitch correctly and may trap water in the vent pipe.
Trapped water in the vent pipe may result in nuisance pressure switch
tripping.
Install the Vent and Combustion Air Pipes
With the furnace installed in the required position, remove the desired
knockouts from the casing. It will be necessary to remove one knockout
for the vent pipe and the other knockout for the combustion air
connection. See Fig. 15 .
Use a flat blade screwdriver and tap on the knockout on opposite sides,
where the knockout meets the casing. Fold the knockout down with duct
pliers and work the knockout back and forth until it is removed. Trim
any excess metal from the knockout with tin snips.
The vent elbow can be rotated to the required location on the casing if
necessary. See Fig. 58 . To rotate the vent elbow:
7. Loosen the clamp on the inlet of the vent elbow attached to the
inducer.
8. Tighten the clamp around the vent elbow. Torque the clamp to 15
lb-in. See Fig. 54 through Fig. 57 .
9. Rotate the vent elbow to the required position. There are rounded
notches on the vent elbow to align it with the inducer housing for
each orientation.
WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
To route the vent pipe and combustion air pipe through the furnace, the
manufacturer supplied kit must be used. Failure to properly seal the
blower compartment from the furnace vestibule could result in the
circulation of carbon monoxide throughout the structure. The vent pipe
and combustion air pipe must be a continuous pipe while passing
through the blower compartment. Seals supplied in this kit must be
installed per the instructions provided. Follow all procedures outlined
in these instructions.
