Study conducted at the Center for Innovation & Development, University of Wisconsin – Stout.

• Performed May 4th, 2011.
• Testing furnace performace under partially to fully blocked intake pipe conditions.
• Test performed on Trane XC95m, representing modern modulating design.
• Test performed on Comfortmaker Enviroplus 90, representing an older single stage nonmodulating design.

Efficiency Testing Results :

Trane XC95m without FlameMeister

• The output of the furnace decreased from the third stage (100% output) to the second stage (65% output) when the intake pipe was blocked at 65% and decreased again to the first stage (40% output)
  when the intake pipe was blocked 100%.
• The furnace would operate at lower heat capacities with a 65% or greater blockage, which may not fulfill
  the heat capacity needed on a cold day.

Trane XC95m with FlameMeister

• The FlameMeister operated the furnace at 100% capacity throughout the test entirety.
• Allowed the furnace to modulate between stages to provide the heat capacity needed.

Comfortmaker Enviroplus 90 without FlameMeister

• Furnace failed to operate with high levels of intake restriction ( over 85% intake blockage)

Comfortmaker Enviroplus 90 with FlameMeister

• Furnace operated throughout the entire test.

Intake Air Pressure Results

Trane XC95m without FlameMeister

• As the intake pipe is restricted, the pressure doubled to compensate causing the fan to use more power to provide an equivalent amount of air.

Trane XC95m with FlameMeister

• As the intake pipe is restricted, the pressure remained consistant throughout the test.

Comfortmaker Enviroplus 90 without FlameMeister

• As the intake pipe is restricted, the pressure elevated to a point where the furnace recognized a lack of incoming air and would not operate.

Comfortmaker Enviroplus 90 with FlameMeister

• As the intake pipe is restricted, the pressure remained fairly consistant and operated fully throughout the test.
