kurt Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 OK, I lost my chart. What's the max flue length for Category 3 furnaces? I've got one about 37' w/4 90's, & I think it's wrong, but don't have the spec. Anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kibbel Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Be advised I'm only replying because no one else has. I'm the least qualified to comment since a majority of the buildings I'm in have oil fired boilers. I'll assume that "flue" length is referring to what we call vent connectors. I believe cat. I connector length can be 75% of the height of the chimney. If said connector is "B" vent, it can be 100% of the chimney height. Cat. II, III & IV vent connector length should be specified by the manufacturer of the furnace. Could your lost chart be from a manufacturer?

kurt Posted November 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Thanks Bill. I've been reeducating myself on this one, & I think I've got it covered. Yes, the mfg. had the spec.; it just took me a while to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Yeah, That's why I didn't respond. I was thinking of the exact rule that Bill mentions. I figured I'd sit back and see if anyone had an actual length chart somewhere that I'd never seen before. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!
