What conditions, if any may a technician route the exhaust of the furnace into the
exhaust vent of the water heater? - ANSWER: Under no conditions may you use the
water heater exhaust vent.
How may a technician terminate the intake and exhaust for proper operation of a
high efficiency gas furnace when using scheduled 40 PVC pipe: - ANSWER: By using
the specific manufacturers termination kit or make one to meet their requirements.
When suspended with metal strap and no saddle, flexible duct should be: - ANSWER:
Supported with a minimum strap width of 1/2"
Installing a gas furnace and not an air conditioner has what affect on the installation
of the supply ductwork: - ANSWER: Leave adequate space should be allowed for
addition of a coil in the future when feasible
Leveling of a Mercury bulb is: - ANSWER: Critical
Spray-type atomizing humidifiers are installed to: - ANSWER: Discharge moisture into
the supply duct
Electronic air cleaners (EAC) installed in a gas furnace system should be wired so
they: - ANSWER: Only operate any time the EAC On-Off switch is turned to ON.

, The setting on a 4 speed PSC blower motor can be changed by changing the: -
ANSWER: Motor tap connection
When starting up a dual system, the temperature rise method for determining
airflow cannot be used with compressor cycle of the heat pump because: - ANSWER:

A gas clothes dryer can interfere with the operation of a nearby natural draft gas
furnace with an atmospheric burner by: - ANSWER: Stealing combustion air
preventing complete fuel burning
During a preventive maintenance check of a gas furnace: - ANSWER: Ductwork
should always be checked for leaks and damage
When performing a cycle check during a preventive maintenance call, the technician
should: - ANSWER: First, check with owner for equipment performance
Next, turn the unit off at the thermostat system switch
