HEAT 4 - Recognizing & Ensuring Reliable Venting Performance

Wednesday, April 25, 2007  ·  8:30 AM - 10:10 AM

While nothing about vent systems is completely predictable, there are measures that can be taken to make vents more reliable. This session will focus on a pragmatic application of venting codes and installation techniques. Presenting from years of experience in inspecting and testing vent systems, we will explore what it takes to be comfortable when leaving a combustion appliance vent system.
 
By attending this session, participants will
 
  1. Review operational characteristics of combustion appliance vent systems
  2. Be exposed to visual vent system inspection considerations
  3. Gain a practical perspective on code venting requirements
