| | |
| | 1) THE RE-SUBMITTED M100 PLAN FROM GM CONSULTING |
| | ENGINEERS IS INDICATING THE BOILER FLUE IS A B-VENT |
| | TYPE FOR A CATEGORY 1 APPLIANCE, HOWEVER THE NEWLY |
| | SUBMITTED MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFCATIONS FROM VAN PACKER |
| | FOR THE BOILER SPECIFI A FORCED DRAFT VENTING SYSTEM . |
| | PLEASE SEE THE DEFINITIONS OF CATEGORY-1, TYPE B VENT, |
| | AND FORCED DRAFT IN SECTION 202 FBC-14 FUEL GAS: |
| | |
| | A) CATEGORY I. AN APPLIANCE THAT OPERATES WITH A |
| | NONPOSITIVE VENT STATIC PRESSURE AND WITH A VENT GAS |
| | TEMPERATURE THAT AVOIDS EXCESSIVE CONDENSATE PRODUCTION |
| | IN THE VENT. |
| | B) TYPE B VENT. A VENT LISTED AND LABELED FOR USE WITH |
| | APPLIANCES WITH DRAFT HOODS AND OTHER CATEGORY I |
| | APPLIANCES THAT ARE LISTED FOR USE WITH TYPE B VENTS. |
| | C) FORCED-DRAFT VENTING SYSTEM. A PORTION OF A VENTING |
| | SYSTEM USING A FAN OR OTHER MECHANICAL MEANS TO CAUSE |
| | THE REMOVAL OF FLUE OR VENT GASES UNDER POSITIVE STATIC |
| | VENT PRESSURE. |
| | IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE M100 PLAN INDICATING A |
| | CATEGORY 1 APPLIANCE WITH A TYPE B VENT IS NOT |
| | CONSISTENT WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS FROM |
| | VAN-PACKER. |
| | 2) PLEASE PROVIDE AN UPDATED WIND LOAD ENGINEERING |
| | SUBMITTAL FOR INSTALLATION OF THE FLUE ABOVE THE ROOF. |
| | THE PLAN IN THE FILE HAS BEEN MARKED VOID BY EITHER THE |
| | CONTRACTOR OR DESIGN PROFESSIONAL. |
