Did an inspection and came across this furnace with a different type of venting that I have not seen before. Usually a high effeciency furnace would have the fresh air intake all the way from the outside but this one was just at the furnace. Has anyone seen this before?
Fuel-burning appliance is allowed to take combustion air from indoor as long as it’s not drawing it from a “confined” space. Does not matter if it’s 90%+ Refer to the installation manual for more information.

I see this all the time. Did you read through the manufacturers installation manual. Your answer will be in the manual.

No, I did not read the installation manual.

As stated above, the manufacturer will have combustion air requirements. As long as there’s enough “fresh” air to the room where the furnace is, then it’s fine.
Thanks Michael,
