duct having the same cross-section area as the inlet
connection and not less than two equivalent diameters in
length.

b) The ducts connected to the duct furnace must have removable

access panels on both upstream and downstream sides of the
duct. The opening must be accessible, and shall be of such
size, that smoke or reflected light may be observed inside

the casing to indicate the presence of leaks in the heating
