Hi All,
Ran into this yesterday. Gas fired furnace units installed directly over wood floors.
Actually 3 of them in three different units. Anyone have a definitive reason why this is a bad idea.
Thanks
Nope. Don’t see a problem.
I would be more concerned with the storage around it. That and he fact that is in your living space…
Fresh air source & standards& code violations?
Combustion air source & code violations?
Flammables too close!
Burner & heat exchanger conditions on old furnace?
Gas piping?
Flue vent piping?
How many others?
Needs CLOSE examination and repairs or replacement by LICENSED heating contractor;
Let someone else with specialty license assume liability!!!
I have never encountered an installation like that.
How are these units Vented?
