IMPORTANT
The combustion check verification MUST be performed after
the nozzle replacement or the burner cleaning. After these
manipulations, the combustion parameters are necessarily
modified. Refer also to the burner instruction manual.
Pierce a test hole in the flue pipe, approximately 18 inches

from the furnace breech. Insert the smoke test probe into
the hole. For installation using a sidewall venting, use the
orifice provided on the breech plate;

Draft Regulator adjustment
On chimney installations only, a barometric draft regulator
(supplied with the furnace) must be installed, in order to ensure
proper draft through the furnace. The barometric damper must
be mounted with the hinge pins in a horizontal position and the
face of the damper vertical for proper functioning (see
instructions included with the damper.) After the furnace has
been firing for at least five minutes, the draft regulator should
be set to between -0.025" and -0.060" W.C.
Overfire pressure test
3.3.5
The overfire draft that is taken through the observation port,
located above the burner, is a measurement necessary to
determine if there is a blockage in the heat exchanger or the
flue pipe. Refer to the Technical Specifications in this manual
for overfire pressure values. A high pressure condition may be
caused by excessive combustion air, due to the air band being
too wide open, or a lack of flue draft (chimney effect) or some
other blockage, such as soot in the secondary section of the
heat exchanger or the use of an oversize nozzle input or high
pressure pump.
3.3.6 Vent Temperature Test
After having adjusted the burner combustion, insert a
1.
thermometer into the test hole in the breech pipe;
The total vent temperature should be between 204 and
2.
302°C (400 and 575°F). If not, check for improper air

3.3.8 Limit Control Check
After operating the furnace for at least 15 minutes, restrict
the return air supply by blocking the filters or the return air
register and allow the furnace to shut off on High Limit.
The burner will shut off but the blower will continue to run.
Remove the obstruction and the burner should restart
after a few minutes. The time required for the restart also
depends on the adjustment of the blower "OFF" delay.
3.3.9 Restart after Burner Failure
Set the thermostat lower than room temperature;
1.
Press the reset button on the burner primary control
2.
(relay);
Set the thermostat higher than room temperature;
3.
If the burner motor does not start or ignition fails, turn
4.
off the disconnect switch and CALL A QUALIFIED
SERVICE TECHNICIAN.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to start the burner when excess oil has
accumulated when the furnace is full of vapour or when
the combustion chamber is hot.
