To some extent, yes.

However, based on that photo, they will accept anything.

There is no pan under the water heater.

The sediment trap is improper.

There is no secondary condensate drain line on the furnace (secondary opening is plugged with that red plug).

No auxiliary drain pan under the furnace which has condensate.

What is that the furnace is setting on? Concrete? Metal?
