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 15.
1. Using winter design temperature (used in load calculations),
find appropriate temperature for your application and fur-
nace 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 sus-
pended 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, hu-
mid spaces.
6. Install the insulation per the insulation manufacturer’s in-
stallation 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.

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.
