Venting Using a Masonry Chimney
The following additional requirements apply when a lined
masonry chimney is used to vent this furnace.
Masonry chimneys used to vent Category I central furnaces
must be either tile lined or lined with a listed metal lining
system or dedicated gas vent. Unlined masonry chimneys
are prohibited. See Figure 23 and Figure 24 for common
venting.
A chimney with one or more sides exposed to the outside
of the structure is considered to be an exterior chimney.
An exterior masonry chimney that is not tile lined must be
lined with B1 vent or a listed insulated exible metal vent.
An exterior tile lined chimney that is sealed and capped
may be lined with a listed uninsulated exible metal vent.
If the existing chimney will not accommodate a listed metal
liner, either the chimney must be rebuilt to accommodate
one of these liners or an alternate approved venting
method must be found.
Insulation for the exible vent pipe must be an encapsulated
berglass sleeve recommended by the exible vent pipe
manufacturer.
SINGLE appliance venting of a fan assisted furnace into
a tile lined masonry chimney (interior or outside wall) is
prohibited. The chimney must rst be lined with either
type B1 vent or an insulated single wall exible vent
lining system which has been sized according to the
provided venting tables and the vent pipe manufacturer’s
instructions.
