Combustion Safety Testing Sample Clauses

Combustion Safety Testing. A house must successfully pass combustion safety tests prior to installing weatherization measures in the home. It is the intent that this testing be performed at the screening visit or comprehensive visit when there are identifiable measures. Combustion safety evaluation shall be performed in accordance with current Building Performance Institute Building Analyst standards. This includes testing all combustion heating and hot water systems along with combustion ovens and dryers. A summary of the BPI test procedures are listed below. For more information please visit xxx.xxx.xxx. 1. Measure the Base Pressure. Start with all exterior doors, windows, and the fireplace damper(s) closed. Set all combustion appliances to the pilot setting or turn off the service disconnect, including: boiler, furnace, space-heaters, and water heater. With the home in this configuration, measure and record the baseline pressure of the combustion appliance zone (CAZ) with respect to outside. 2. Establish the Worst Case. Turn on the dryer and all exhaust fans. Close interior doors that made the CAZ pressure more negative. Turn on the air handler, if present, and leave on if the pressure in the CAZ becomes more negative, then recheck the door positions. Measure the net change in pressure from the CAZ to outside, correcting for the base pressure. Record the “worst case depressurization” and compare to the CAZ Depressurization Limit Table (refer to BPI standards). 3. Test Worst Case Spillage, Draft, CO. Fire the appliance with the smallest Btu capacity first, test for spillage, measure the draft pressure, and then test for CO. Spillage and CO are tested close to the burner, draft is measured close to the chimney. The spillage test fails if it is still spilling after 1 minute. The CO test fails if the levels are still too high after 10 minutes. Carbon monoxide needs to be tested in other gas fired appliances such as gas dryers and gas ovens if present at the home. 4. If Test Fails: Retest Spillage or Draft under Natural Conditions. If spillage or draft fails under worst case, turn off the exhaust fans, open the interior doors, leave the first appliance running and test for spillage and draft under “natural conditions”. If tests pass under natural conditions, try to figure out which change causes the tests to fail.
