Combustion

Combustion Test helps you determine the eff ective-

ness of the combustion by analysis of combustion prod-
ucts and temperature.

Th

e Combustion Test will only tell you about com-

bustion and does not take into account any losses from
poor insulation, or cycling and standby losses. It does
not measure any losses in the distribution system such
as uninsulated hydronic piping, air duct leakage or in-
sulation levels.

Properly tuned gas combustion equipment will

produce little or no carbon monoxide, no soot, and will
consume less fuel.
