Educational Information About 92% Furnaces – reach Read The Basics Of How They Are Installed
Thursday, February 11th, 2010First let us say we have been installing furnaces since 1989 with next to NO repair problems. This includes the 92% versions. We ran a modern house HVAC business for 10 years installing not only the furnace, air conditioner or heat pump but all the ductwork, wiring, in other words a complete turn key installation. We did this on between 150 – 200 fresh homes a year for this 10 year period.
To give you all some insight to why some companies try to discourage you from installing 92% furnaces please read on. Installing these furnaces MUST be done correctly or they WILL NOT work true. Companies who hire inexperienced installers and service people already know they will have problems with the installation. If your basement ceiling is finished with sheet rock it may be difficult to hurry the P.V.C. flue pipe or pipes to the outside wall of the building. These pipes USUALLY have to hasten horizontally AND have to have a 1/4″ pitch benefit towards the furnace or air handler. If you don’t have this pitch you will accumulate at the LEAST erratic operation of the burners on the furnace or cycling of the air handler.
The size of the flue pipes ( diameter ) runs between 2″ and 3″. The size of the furnace and the length of the runs of pipe as well as the number of elbows will dictate which diameter of pipe is needed. Here again, if the installer AND the estimator doesn’t understand this, you can count on problems! In other words if 3″ pipe will be needed SOMEONE has to be distinct there is enough clearance to allow for installation AND the 1/4″ pitch.
