Possible Causes

Marginal venting, Undersized intake pipe, Weak inducer motor, Incorrect pressure switch setting

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before disconnecting tubing or wiring.

  • Inspect vent and intake sizing: Compare installed vent and intake pipe diameters and lengths to the Fraser‑Johnston installation manual. Excessive length or too many elbows can cause low draft.
  • Check for partial blockages: Look for sagging pipes with water accumulation, or debris at terminations.
  • Clean condensate system: Flush the condensate trap and hoses to ensure free drainage.
  • Have a technician verify: A professional can measure draft pressure and confirm whether the pressure switch and inducer are operating within specifications.
