CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD  
Special Warning for Installation of Furnace or Air Handling Units in  
Enclosed Areas such as Garages, Utility Rooms or Parking Areas  
Carbon monoxide producing devices (such as an automobile, space  
heater, gas water heater, etc.) should not be operated in enclosed areas  
such as unventilated garages, utility rooms or parking areas because of  
the danger of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning resulting from the exhaust  
emissions. If a furnace or air handler is installed in an enclosed area such  
as a garage, utility room or parking area and a carbon monoxide producing  
device is operated therein, there must be adequate, direct outside  
ventilation.  
This ventilation is necessary to avoid the danger of CO poisoning which  
can occur if a carbon monoxide producing device continues to operate in  
the enclosed area. Carbon monoxide emissions can be (re)circulated  
throughout the structure if the furnace or air handler is operating in any  
mode.  
CO can cause serious illness including permanent brain damage or death.

rials to which this furnace has been design certified. The mini-  
mum clearance information for this furnace is provided on the unit’s  
clearance label. These clearances must be permanently main-  
tained. Clearances must also accommodate an installation’s gas,  
electrical, and drain trap and drain line connections. If the alternate  
vent/flue connection is used, additional clearance must be pro-  
vided to accommodate these connections. Refer to Vent Flue Pipe  
and Combustion Air Pipe for details. NOTE: In addition to the  
required clearances to combustible materials, a minimum of 24  
inches service clearance must be available in front of the unit.  
The following steps shall be followed with each appliance connected to the  
venting system placed in operation, while any other appliances connected  
to the venting system are not in operation:  
a. Seal any unused openings in the venting system;  
b. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch, as  
required by the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 or the CSA  
B149.1-05.1-05 Installation Codes and these instructions. Deter-  
mine that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and  
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition;  
TOP  
c. In so far as practical, close all building doors and windows and all  
doors between the space in which the appliance(s) connected to the  
venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on  
clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the venting sys-  
tem. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom  
exhausts, so they shall operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a  
summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers;

A furnace installed in a confined space (i.e., a closet or utility room)  
must have two ventilation openings with a total minimum free area  
of 0.25 square inches per 1,000 BTU/hr of furnace input rating.  
Refer to the Specification Sheet applicable to your model for mini-  
mum clearances to combustible surfaces. One of the ventilation  
openings must be within 12 inches of the top; the other opening  
must be within 12 inches of the bottom of the confined space. In a  
typical construction, the clearance between the door and door frame  
is usually adequate to satisfy this ventilation requirement.  
e. Test for draft hood equipped spillage at the draft hood relief opening  
after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match  
or candle;  
f. After it has been determined that each appliance connected to the  
venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, re-  
turn doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other  
gas burning appliance to their previous conditions of use;  
g. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the  
common venting system must be corrected.  
Corrections must be in accordance with the latest edition of the  
National Fuel Gas Code NFPA54/ANSI Z223.1 and/or CSAB149.1-  
05.1-05 Installation Codes.

If resizing is required on any portion of the venting system, use the Most homes will require outside air be supplied to the furnace area by  
means of ventilation grilles or ducts connecting directly to the outdoors  
or spaces open to the outdoors such as attics or crawl spaces.  
The following information on air for combustion and ventilation is reproduced  
from the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 Section 5.3.

appropriate table inAppendix G in the latest edition of the National Fuel  
Gas CodeANSI Z223.1 and/or CSAB149.1-05.1-05 Installation Codes.  
THERMOSTAT LOCATION  
The thermostat should be placed approximately five feet from the floor  
on a vibration-free, inside wall in an area having good air circulation.  
Do not install the thermostat where it may be influenced by any of the  
following:  
(a) The provisions of 5.3 apply to gas utilization equipment installed in  
buildings and which require air for combustion, ventilation and dilu-  
tion of flue gases from within the building. They do not apply to (1)  
direct vent equipment which is constructed and installed so that all  
air for combustion is obtained from the outside atmosphere and all  
flue gases are discharged to the outside atmosphere, or (2) enclosed  
furnaces which incorporate an integral total enclosure and use only  
outside air for combustion and dilution of flue gases.  
Drafts, or dead spots behind doors, in corners, or under  
cabinets.  
Hot or cold air from registers.  
Radiant heat from the sun.  
(b) Equipment shall be installed in a location in which the facilities for  
ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of gas, proper venting  
and the maintenance of ambient temperature at safe limits under  
normal conditions of use. Equipment shall be located so as not to  
interfere with proper circulation of air. When normal infiltration  
does not provide the necessary air, outside air shall be introduced.  
Light fixtures or other appliances.  
Radiant heat from a fireplace.  
Concealed hot or cold water pipes, or chimneys.  
Unconditioned areas behind the thermostat, such as an  
outside wall.  
(c) In addition to air needed for combustion, process air shall be pro-  
vided as required for: cooling of equipment or material, controlling  
dew point, heating, drying, oxidation or dilution, safety exhaust,  
odor control, and air for compressors.  
(d) In addition to air needed for combustion, air shall be supplied for  
ventilation, including all air required for comfort and proper working  
conditions for personnel.

V. COMBUSTION & VENTILATIONAIR REQUIREMENTS  
WARNING  
5.3.2 Equipment Located in Unconfined Spaces:  
In unconfined spaces (see definition below) in buildings, infiltration may  
be adequate to provide air for combustion ventilation and dilution of  
flue gases. However, in buildings of tight construction (for example,  
weather stripping, heavily insulated, caulked, vapor barrier, etc.), addi-  
tional air may need to be provided using the methods described in 5.3.3-  
b or 5.3.4.  
POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH MAY OCCUR IF  
THE FURNACE IS NOT PROVIDED WITH ENOUGH FRESH AIR FOR PROPER  
COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION OF FLUE GASES. MOST HOMES REQUIRE  
OUTSIDE AIR BE SUPPLIED TO THE FURNACE AREA.  
Space, Unconfined.  
For purposes of this Code, a space whose volume is not less than 50  
cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour of the aggregate input rating of all  
appliances installed in that space. Rooms communicating directly with  
the space in which the appliances are installed through openings not  
furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined space.  
Improved construction and additional insulation in buildings have  
reduced heat loss by reducing air infiltration and escape around  
doors and windows. These changes have helped in reducing  
heating/cooling costs but have created a problem supplying com-  
bustion and ventilation air for gas fired and other fuel burning appli-  
ances. Appliances that pull air out of the house (clothes dryers,  
exhaust fans, fireplaces, etc.) increase the problem by starving  
appliances for air.  
House depressurization can cause back drafting or improper com-  
bustion of gas-fired appliances, thereby exposing building occu-  
pants to gas combustion products that could include carbon mon-  
oxide.  
If this furnace is to be installed in the same space with other gas appli-  
ances, such as a water heater, ensure there is an adequate supply of  
combustion and ventilation air for the other appliances. Refer to the  
latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1  
(Section 5.3), or CSA B149.1-05 Installation Codes (Sections 7.2,  
7.3, or 7.4), or applicable provisions of the local building codes for  
determining the combustion air requirements for the appliances.  
5.3.3 Equipment Located in Confined Spaces:  
(a) All Air from Inside the Building: The confined space shall be pro-  
vided with two permanent openings communicating directly with  
an additional room(s) of sufficient volume so that the combined vol-  
ume of all spaces meets the criteria for an unconfined space. The  
total input of all gas utilization equipment installed in the combined  
space shall be considered in making this determination. Each opening  
shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 1,000 BTU per  
hour of the total input rating of all gas utilization equipment in the  
confined space, but not less than 100 square inches. One opening  
shall be within 12 inches of the top and one within 12 inches of the  
bottom of the enclosure.

5.3.4 Specially Engineered Installations:  
The requirements of 5.3.3 shall not necessarily govern when special  
engineering, approved by the authority having jurisdiction, provides an  
adequate supply of air for combustion, ventilation, and dilution of flue  
gases.  
5.3.5 Louvers and Grilles:  
In calculating free area in 5.3.3, consideration shall be given to the block-  
ing effect of louvers, grilles or screens protecting openings. Screens used  
shall not be smaller than 1/4 inch mesh. If the area through a design of  
louver or grille is known, it should be used in calculating the size of  
opening required to provide the free area specified. If the design and free  
area is not known, it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20-25  
percent free area and metal louvers and grilles will have 60-75 percent  
free area. Louvers and grilles shall be fixed in the open position or  
interlocked with the equipment so that they are opened automatically  
during equipment operation.  
Horizontal Furnace  
DRAIN TRAP AND LINES  
In horizontal applications the condensate drain trap is secured to the  
furnace side panel, suspending it below the furnace. Aminimum clear-  
ance of 4 3/4 inches below the furnace must be provided for the drain  
trap. Additionally, the appropriate downward piping slope must be main-  
tained from the drain trap to the drain location. Refer to Condensate  
Drain Trap and Lines for further details. If the drain trap and drain line  
will be exposed to temperatures near or below freezing, adequate mea-  
sures must be taken to prevent condensate from freezing.  
5.3.6 Special Conditions Created by Mechanical Exhausting or Fire-  
places:  
Operation of exhaust fans, ventilation systems, clothes dryers, or fire-  
places may create conditions requiring special attention to avoid unsat-  
isfactory operation of installed gas utilization equipment. Air from  
Inside Building. See 5.3.3-a.  
VI. INSTALLATION POSITIONS  
LEVELING  
This furnace may be installed in an upright position or horizontal  
on either the left or right side panel. Do not install this furnace on  
its back. For upright upflow furnaces, return air ductwork may be  
attached to the side panel(s) and/or basepan. For horizontal up-  
flow furnaces, return air ductwork must be attached to the basepan.  
For both upright or horizontal counterflow furnaces, return duct-  
work must be attached to the basepan (top end of the blower com-  
partment). NOTE: Ductwork must never be attached to the back of  
the furnace. For upflow installations requiring 1,800 CFM or more,  
use either two side returns or a bottom return or a combination of  
side and bottom. Contact your distributor for proper airflow require-  
ments and number of required ductwork connections. Refer to  
“Recommended Installation Positions” figure for appropriate in-  
stallation positions, ductwork connections, and resulting airflow  
arrangements.  
Leveling ensures proper condensate drainage from the heat exchanger  
and induced draft blower. For proper flue pipe drainage, the furnace  
must be level lengthwise from end to end. The furnace should also be  
level from back to front or have a slight tilt with the access doors downhill  
(approximately 3/4 inches) from the back panel. The slight tilt allows  
the heat exchanger condensate, generated in the recuperator coil, to  
flow forward to the recuperator coil front cover.  
ALTERNATE VENT/FLUE AND COMBUSTION AIR CONNECTIONS  
In horizontal installations, provisions for alternate vent/flue piping is  
available for upflow furnaces with left air discharge. Counterflow fur-  
naces include provisions for both alternate vent/flue and combustion  
air piping with right air discharge. These configurations allow the flue  
and combustion air piping to be run vertically through the furnace. Re-  
fer to the “Recommended Installation Positions” figure for further de-  
tail. The standard piping connections may also be used in these posi-  
tions. Refer to Vent/Flue Pipe and Combustion Air Pipe for details  
concerning the conversion to the alternate vent/flue air connections.  
VII. HORIZONTALAPPLICATIONS & CONSIDERATIONS  
GENERAL  
Horizontal applications, in particular, may dictate many of the  
installation’s specifics such as airflow direction, ductwork connec-  
tions, flue and combustion air pipe connections, etc. The basic  
application of this furnace as a horizontal furnace differs only slightly  
from an upright installation. When installing a furnace horizontally,  
additional consideration must be given to the following:  
When using the horizontal alternate vent configuration, you must  
use the RF000142 vent drain kit. See following illustration.

IX. VENT/FLUE PIPE & COMBUSTION AIR PIPE  
GENERAL  
tic pipe is also acceptable as a flue/vent and intake pipe material. PVC  
primer meetingASTM F656 and PVC solvent cement meetingASTM  
D2564 specifications must be used. Fittings must be DWV type fit-  
tings meeting ASTM D2665 and ASTM D3311. Carefully follow the  
manufactures instructions for cutting, cleaning and solvent cement-  
ing of PVC.  
WARNING  
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN BODILY  
INJURY OR DEATH. CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL  
INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN IN THIS SECTION.  
In addition to PVC and ABS pipe and fittings, Innoflue® by  
Centrotherm Eco Systems and PolyPro® by M&G Duravent are also  
approved vent and combustion air materials for installations in the  
U.S.A. and Canada. Manufacturers Installation instructions for these  
products must be followed. These products have specific instructions  
for installing, joining and terminating. Do not mix materials or compo-  
nents of one manufacturer with materials or components of another  
manufacturer.  
WARNING  
UPON COMPLETION OF THE FURNACE INSTALLATION, CAREFULLY  
INSPECT THE ENTIRE FLUE SYSTEM BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF  
THE FURNACE TO ASSURE IT IS PROPERLY SEALED. LEAKS IN THE  
FLUE SYSTEM CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH  
DUE TO EXPOSURE TO FLUE PRODUCTS, INCLUDING CARBON  
MONOXIDE.  
For Canadian installations; all PVC pipe, fittings and joining mate-  
rials must be UL S636 listed.  
As an alternative to PVC pipe, primer, solvent cement, and fittings,  
ABS materials which are in compliance with the following specifi-  
cations may be used. Two-or-three-inch ABS Schedule 40 pipe  
must meet ASTM D1527 and, if used in Canada, must be CSA  
listed. Solvent cement for ABS to ABS joints must meet ASTM  
D2235 and, if used in Canada, must be CSA listed. The solvent  
cement for the PVC to ABS transition joint must meet ASTM D3138.  
Fittings must be DWV type fittings meetingASTM D2661 andASTM  
D3311 and, if used in Canada, must be CSA listed. Carefully  
follow the pipe manufacturers’ instructions for cutting, cleaning,  
and solvent cementing PVC and/or ABS.  
A condensing gas furnace achieves its high level of efficiency by ex-  
tracting almost all of the heat from the products of combustion and  
cooling them to the point where condensation takes place. Because  
of the relatively low flue gas temperature and water condensation re-  
quirements, PVC pipe is used as venting material.  
This furnace must not be connected to Type B, BW, or Lvent or vent  
connector, and must not be vented into any portion of a factory built  
or masonry chimney except when used as a pathway for PVC as  
described later in this section. Never common vent this appliance  
with another appliance or use a vent which is used by a solid fuel  
appliance. Do not use commercially available “no hub connec-  
tors” other than those shipped with this product.  
It is the responsibility of the installer to follow the manufacturers’  
recommendations and to verify that all vent/flue piping and con-  
nectors are compatible with furnace flue products. Additionally, it  
is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all piping and  
connections possess adequate structural integrity and support to  
prevent flue pipe separation, shifting, or sagging during furnace  
operation.  
All 90° elbows must be medium radius (1/4 bend DWV) or long  
radius (Long sweep 1/4 bend DWV) types conforming to ASTM  
D3311. A medium radius (1/4 bend DWV) elbow measures 3 1/  
16” minimum from the plane of one opening to the centerline of the  
other opening for 2” diameter pipe, and 4 9/16” minimum for 3”  
pipe.  
PROPER VENT/FLUE AND COMBUSTION AIR PIPING PRACTICES  
Adhere to these instructions to ensure safe and proper furnace  
performance. The length, diameter, and number of elbows of the  
vent/flue pipe and combustion air pipe (when applicable) affects  
the performance of the furnace and must be carefully sized. All  
piping must be installed in accordance with local codes and these  
instructions.  
Piping must be adequately secured and supported to prohibit sag-  
ging, joint separation, and/or detachment from the furnace. Hori-  
zontal runs of vent/flue piping must be supported every three to five  
feet and must maintain a 1/4 inch per foot downward slope, back  
towards the furnace, to properly return condensate to the furnace’s  
drain system. Allowances should be made for minor expansion  
and contraction due to temperature variations. For this reason,  
particular care must be taken to secure piping when a long run is  
followed by a short offset of less than 40 inches.  
DUAL CERTIFICATION:NON-DIRECT/DIRECT VENT  
This furnace is dual certified and may be installed as a non-direct  
vent (single pipe) or direct vent (dual pipe) appliance. A non-direct  
vent installation requires only a vent/flue pipe, while a direct vent  
installation requires both a vent/flue pipe and a combustion air  
intake pipe. Refer to the appropriate section for details concerning  
piping size, length, number of elbows, furnace connections, and  
terminations.  
MATERIALS AND JOINING METHODS  
WARNING  
Precautions should be taken to prevent condensate from freez-  
ing inside the vent/flue pipe and/or at the vent/flue pipe termina-  
tion. It is our recommendation that all vent/flue piping exposed to  
temperatures below 35°F for extended periods of time should be  
insulated with 1/2” thick closed cell foam. Also all vent/flue piping  
exposed outdoors in excess of the terminations shown in this  
manual (or in unheated areas) should be insulated with 1/2” thick  
closed cell foam. Inspect piping for leaks prior to installing insu-  
lation.  
TO AVOID BODILY INJURY, FIRE OR EXPLOSION, SOLVENT CEMENTS  
MUST BE KEPT AWAY FROM ALL IGNITION SOURCES  
(I.E., SPARKS,  
OPEN FLAMES, AND EXCESSIVE HEAT) AS THEY ARE COMBUSTIBLE  
LIQUIDS. AVOID BREATHING CEMENT VAPORS OR CONTACT WITH  
SKIN AND/OR EYES.  
Two- or three-inch nominal diameter PVC Schedule 40 pipe meet-  
ing ASTM D1785, PVC primer meeting ASTM F656, and PVC sol-  
vent cement meeting ASTM D2564 specifications must be used.  
Fittings must be DWV type fittings meetingASTM D2665 andASTM  
D3311. Carefully follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cutting,  
cleaning, and solvent cementing of PVC.

VENT/FLUE PIPE  
TERMINATION LOCATIONS  
Vent/flue pipe can be secured to the vent/flue coupling using the rub-  
ber coupling and worm gear hose clamps provided with this furnace  
(see “Standard Connections” figure). The rubber coupling allows sepa-  
ration of the vent/flue pipe from the furnace during servicing. Combus-  
tionAir and Vent piping should be routed in a manner to avoid contact  
with refrigerant lines, metering devices, condensate drain lines, etc.  
If necessary, clearances may be increased by utilizing two 45 deg.  
Long-Sweep Elbows and creating an “S” joint to provide additional  
space at connection locations. This joint can be rotated on the fitting  
to establish maximum clearance between refrigerant lines, metering  
devices, and condensate drain lines, etc. This joint is the equivalent  
of one 90 deg. elbow when considering elbow count.  
NOTES: Refer to Location Requirements and Considerations for  
combustion air contaminant restrictions.  
The following bullets and diagram describe the restrictions concern-  
ing the appropriate location of vent/flue pipe and combustion air intake  
pipe (when applicable) terminations. Refer to Non-Direct Vent (Single  
Pipe) Piping and Direct Vent (Dual Pipe) Piping located in this section  
for specific details on termination construction.  
All terminations (flue and/or intake) must be located at least  
12 inches above ground level or the anticipated snow level.  
Vent terminations (non-direct and direct vent) must terminate  
at least 3 feet above any forced air inlet located within 10  
feet.  
NOTE: This provision does not apply to the combustion air  
intake termination of a direct vent application.  
The vent termination of a non-direct vent application must  
terminate at least 4 feet below, 4 feet horizontally from, or  
1 foot above any door, window, or gravity air inlet into any  
building.  
The vent termination of a direct vent application must  
terminate at least 12 inches from any opening through  
which flue gases may enter a building (door, window, or  
gravity air inlet).  
The vent termination of vent pipe run vertically through a  
roof must terminate at least 12 inches above the roof line  
(or the anticipated snow level) and be at least 12 inches  
from any vertical wall (including any anticipated snow build  
up).

ELBOWS  
A vent termination shall not terminate over public walkways  
or over an area where condensate or vapor could create  
a nuisance or hazard or could be detrimental to the  
operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.  
Increased Clearance Configuration  
The combustion air intake termination of a direct vent  
application should not terminate in an area which is  
frequently dusty or dirty.  
NOTE: Do not use other commercially available “no hub connec-  
tors” due to possible material conflicts. The vent/flue pipe can also  
be secured using a PVC or ABS elbow or coupling using the ap-  
propriate glue (see Section IX, Materials and Joining Methods).  
NOTE: In Canada, the Canadian Fuel Gas Code takes precedence  
over the preceding termination restrictions.  
NOTE: For non-direct vent installations, a minimum of one 90°  
elbow should be installed on the combustion air intake coupling  
to guard against inadvertent blockage.  
CANADIAN VENTING REQUIREMENTS  
In Canada, venting must conform to the requirements of the cur-  
rent CAN/CSA-B149.1-05 Installation Code. Use only CSA-listed,  
ULC-S636 compliant two- or three-inch diameter PVC or ABS pipe,  
solvent cement, and fittings throughout. The certified piping should  
be clearly marked with the ULC Std “S636” on the pipe and fittings.  
Carefully follow the pipe manufacturers’ instructions for cutting,  
cleaning, and solvent cementing PVC and/or ABS.  
The vent can be run through an existing unused chimney provided  
the space between the vent pipe and the chimney is insulated and  
closed with a weather-tight, corrosion-resistant flashing.  
COMBUSTION AIR PIPE  
DIRECT VENT INSTALLATIONS  
On upflow units secure the combustion air intake pipe directly to the  
air intake coupling. On counterflow units secure the combustion air  
intake pipe to the air intake coupling using the rubber coupling and  
worm gear hose clamps provided with the unit. The counterflow rub-  
ber coupling allows service removal of air intake piping internal to the  
furnace blower compartment. NOTE: Because of probable material  
conflicts, do not use other commercially available “no hub connec-  
tors”. The combustion air intake pipe can also be secured directly to  
the counterflow unit air intake pipe coupling.  
STANDARD FURNACE CONNECTIONS  
NON-DIRECT VENT INSTALLATIONS  
It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the piping con-  
nections to the furnace are secure, airtight, and adequately sup-  
ported.  
A minimum of one 90° elbow should be installed on the combustion air  
intake “coupling” to guard against inadvertent blockage.  
As shipped, attachment “couplings” for vent/flue and combustion  
air intake pipe connections are provided on the furnace’s top cover  
(upflow) or basepan (counterflow). To use the standard connec-  
tions, field supplied vent/flue pipe and combustion air intake pipe  
(when applicable) should be secured directly to the furnace at these  
locations.

ALTERNATE FURNACE CONNECTIONS  
If the standard locations are undesirable for a specific installation,  
alternate side panel locations are available on the upflow models for  
the vent/flue. Counterflow furnaces include provisions for both alter-  
nate vent/flue and combustion air piping. These locations may be of  
particular benefit to upright upflow installations requiring additional  
access to an A coil, or to upright counterflow installations requiring  
additional access to a filter or electronic air cleaner, or to horizontal  
installations desiring vent/flue (upflow and counterflow) and combus-  
tion air intake (counterflow only) piping run vertically from the side of  
the cabinet.  
6. Upflow and Counterflow units.  
Insert cut section of vent/flue pipe and coupling into alternate  
vent/flue location. Using a rubber coupling and worm gear  
hose clamps from the drain kit bag, attach the vent/flue pipe  
and coupling to the induced draft blower. Secure the coupling  
to the cabinet using the screws removed in step 1 or with  
field-supplied 3/8” #8 self drilling screws.  
NOTE: Standard and alternate locations can be combined (i.e., an  
installation may use the standard combustion air intake location  
but use the alternate vent/flue location), if needed.  
WARNING  
THE RUBBER ELBOW IS NOT DESIGNED TO SUPPORT A LOAD. WHEN

6) One 90° elbow should be secured to the combustion air intake connec-  
tion.  
Non-direct vent installations require only a vent/flue pipe. The vent  
pipe can be run horizontally with an exit through the side of the  
building or run vertically with an exit through the roof of the building.  
The vent can also be run through an existing unused chimney;  
however, it must extend a minimum of 12 inches above the top of  
the chimney. The space between the vent pipe and the chimney  
must be closed with a weather-tight, corrosion-resistant flashing.  
For details concerning connection of the vent/flue pipe to the fur-  
nace, refer to Vent/Flue Pipe and Combustion Air - Standard Fur-  
nace Connections or Alternate Furnace Connections for specific  
details. Refer to the following Non-Direct Vent (Single Pipe) Piping  
- Vent/Flue Pipe Terminations for specific details on termination  
construction.  
VENT/FLUE PIPE TERMINATIONS  
NOTE: If either a 90 degree or 45 degree elbow is used for termina-  
tion, it must be pointed downward.  
The vent/flue pipe may terminate vertically, as through a roof, or  
horizontally, as through an outside wall.  
Vertical vent/flue pipe terminations should be as shown in the fol-  
lowing figure. Refer to Vent/Flue Pipe and Combustion Air Pipe -  
Termination Locations for details concerning location restrictions.  
The penetration of the vent through the roof must be sealed tight  
with proper flashing such as is used with a plastic plumbing vent.  
Horizontal vent/flue pipe terminations should be as shown in the  
following figure. Refer to Section IX, Vent/Flue Pipe and Combus-  
tion Air Pipe - Termination Locations for details concerning loca-  
tion restrictions. A 2 3/8” diameter wall penetration is required for  
2” diameter pipe. A 3” diameter hole is required for a 2 1/2” pipe  
and a 3 1/2” diameter hole is required for 3” diameter pipe. To  
secure the pipe passing through the wall and prohibit damage to  
piping connections, a coupling should be installed on either side  
of the wall and solvent cemented to a length of pipe connecting the  
two couplings. The length of pipe should be the wall thickness  
plus the depth of the socket fittings to be installed on the inside and  
outside of the wall. The wall penetration should be sealed with sili-  
cone caulking material.  
Although non-direct vent installations do not require a combustion  
air intake pipe, a minimum of one 90° elbow should be attached to  
the furnace’s combustion air intake if: an upright installation uses  
the standard intake location. This elbow will guard against inad-  
vertent blockage of the air intake.  
VENT/FLUE PIPE LENGTHS AND DIAMETERS  
Refer to the following table for applicable length, elbows, and pipe  
diameter for construction of the vent/flue pipe system of a non-  
direct vent installation. In addition to the vent/flue pipe, a single 90°  
elbow should be secured to the combustion air intake to prevent  
inadvertent blockage. The tee used in the vent/flue termination must  
be included when determining the number of elbows in the piping sys-  
tem.  
In a basement installation, the vent/flue pipe can be run between  
joist spaces. If the vent pipe must go below a joist and then up into  
the last joist space to penetrate the header, two 45° elbows should be  
used to reach the header rather than two 90° elbows.  
NOTE: Terminate both pipes in the same pressure zone (same  
side of roof, no major obstacles between pipes, etc.)

VENT/FLUE AND COMBUSTION AIR PIPE LENGTHS AND DIAMETERS  
TEE (OPTIONAL)  
Refer to the following table for applicable length, elbows, and pipe di-  
ameter for construction of the vent/flue and combustion air intake  
pipe systems of a direct vent (dual pipe) installation. The number  
of elbows tabulated represents the number of elbows and/or tees  
in each (Vent/Flue & Combustion Air Intake) pipe. Elbows and/or  
tees used in the terminations must be included when determining  
the number of elbows in the piping systems.  
If the combustion air intake pipe is to be installed above a finished  
ceiling or other area where dripping of condensate will be objec-  
tionable, insulation of the combustion air pipe may be required.  
Use 1/2” thick closed cell foam insulation such as Armaflex™ or  
Insultube where required.

Standard Horizontal Terminations (Dual Pipe)  
Direct vent installations require both a combustion air intake and a  
vent/flue pipe. The pipes may be run horizontally and exit through  
the side of the building or run vertically and exit through the roof of  
the building. The pipes may be run through an existing unused

X. CONDENSATE DRAIN LINES & DRAIN TRAP  
A condensing gas furnace achieves its high level of efficiency by  
extracting almost all of the heat from the products of combustion  
and cooling them to the point where condensation takes place.  
The condensate which is generated must be piped to an appropri-  
ate drain location.  
In upright installations, the furnace’s drain hoses may exit either  
the right or left side of the furnace. NOTE: If the alternate vent/flue  
outlet is utilized in an upright installation, the drain trap and drain  
connections must be located on the same side as the alternate  
vent/flue outlet.  
In horizontal installations, the drain hoses will exit through the  
bottom (down side) of the unit with the drain trap suspended be-  
neath the furnace. The field-supplied drain system must be in  
accordance with all local codes and the instructions in the follow-  
ing sections.

Alternate Vent Termination Above Anticipated Snow Level  
(Dual Pipe)  
In a basement installation, the pipes may be run between the joist  
spaces. If the pipes must go below the joist and then up into the  
last joist space to penetrate the header, two 45° elbows should be  
used to reach the header rather than two 90° elbows.  
VENT/INTAKE TERMINATIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF MULTIPLE  
DIRECT VENT FURNACES  
Follow the bullets listed below when installing the drain system.  
Refer to the following sections for specific details concerning fur-  
nace drain trap installation and drain hose hook ups.  
If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed vertically  
through a common roof top, maintain the same minimum clear-  
ances between the exhaust vent and air intake terminations of  
adjacent units as with the exhaust vent and air intake terminations  
of a single unit.  
If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed horizontally  
through a common side wall, maintain the clearances as in the  
following figure. Always terminate all exhaust vent outlets at the  
same elevation and always terminate all air intakes at the same  
elevation.  
The drain trap supplied with the furnace must be used.  
The drain line between furnace and drain location must  
maintain a 1/4 inch per foot downward slope toward  
the drain.  
Do not trap the drain line in any other location than at  
the drain trap supplied with the furnace.  
If the drain line is routed through an area which may  
see temperatures near or below freezing, precautions  
must be taken to prevent condensate from freezing  
within the drain line.

If an air conditioning coil is installed with the furnace, a  
common drain may be used. An open tee must be  
installed in the drain line, near the cooling coil, to relieve  
positive air pressure from the coil’s plenum. This is  
necessary to prohibit any interference with the function of  
the furnace’s drain trap.  
In a upright installation drain hoses are connected to drain ports on the  
rubber elbow and the recuperator coil front cover. The drain lines are  
then routed through the right side panel and into the drain trap secured  
to the outside of the cabinet.  
NOTE: Refer to Alternate Vent/Flue Hose Connections for upright  
installations using an alternate vent/flue outlet.

kits. The indicated kits must be used to insure safe and proper  
furnace operation. All conversions must be performed by a quali-  
fied installer or service agency.  
XII. GAS SUPPLYAND PIPING  
GENERAL  
The furnace rating plate includes the approved furnace gas input  
rating and gas types. The furnace must be equipped to operate on  
the type of gas applied. This includes any conversion kits required  
for alternate fuels and/or high altitude.  
GAS VALVE  
This unit is equipped with a 24 volt gas valve controlled during  
furnace operation by the integrated control module. As shipped,  
the valve is configured for natural gas. The valve is field convertible  
for use with propane gas by replacing the regulator spring with a  
propane gas spring from an appropriate manufacturer’s propane  
gas conversion kit. Taps for measuring the gas supply pressure  
and manifold pressure are provided on the valve.  
The gas valve has a manual ON/OFF control located on the valve  
itself. This control may be set only to the “ON” or “OFF” position.  
Refer to the lighting instructions label or Section XIV, Startup Pro-  
cedure & Adjustment for use of this control during start up and shut  
down periods.  
CAUTION  
TO PREVENT UNRELIABLE OPERATION OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE, THE  
INLET GAS SUPPLY PRESSURE MUST BE AS SPECIFIED ON THE UNIT  
RATING PLATE WITH ALL OTHER HOUSEHOLD GAS FIRED APPLIANCES  
OPERATING.  
Inlet gas supply pressures must be maintained within the ranges  
specified below. The supply pressure must be constant and avail-  
able with all other household gas fired appliances operating. The  
minimum gas supply pressure must be maintained to prevent  
unreliable ignition. The maximum must not be exceeded to pre-  
vent unit overfiring.

GENERAL  
HIGH ALTITUDE DERATE  
CAUTION  
When this furnace is installed at high altitude, the appropriate High  
Altitude orifice kit must be applied. This is required due to the  
natural reduction in the density of both the gas fuel and combus-  
tion air as altitude increases. The kit will provide the proper design  
certified input rate within the specified altitude range.  
TO AVOID POSSIBLE UNSATISFACTORY OPERATION OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE  
DUE TO UNDERFIRING OF EQUIPMENT, USE THE PROPER SIZE OF  
NATURAL/PROPANE GAS PIPING NEEDED WHEN RUNNING PIPE FROM THE  
METER/TANK TO THE FURNACE.  
High altitude kits are purchased according to the installation alti-  
tude and usage of either natural or propane gas. Contact your  
distributor for a tabular listing of appropriate altitude ranges and  
corresponding manufacturer’s high altitude (Natural, Propane Gas,  
and/or Pressure Switch) kits.  
Do not derate the furnace by adjusting the manifold pressure to a  
lower pressure than specified on the furnace rating plate. The  
combination of the lower air density and a lower manifold pressure  
will prohibit the burner orifice from drawing the proper amount of  
air into the burner. This may cause incomplete combustion, flash-  
back, and possible yellow tipping.  
When sizing a trunk line, be sure to include all appliances which  
will operate simultaneously.  
The gas piping supplying the furnace must be properly sized based  
on the gas flow required, specific gravity of the gas, and length of  
the run. The gas line installation must comply with local codes, or  
in their absence, with the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas  
Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1.

Propane Gas Piping Chart II  
XIII. CIRCULATING AIR & FILTERS  
All propane gas equipment must conform to the safety standards  
of the National Board of Fire Underwriters, NBFU Manual 58.  
For satisfactory operation, propane gas pressure must be 11 inch  
w.c. at the furnace manifold with all gas appliances in operation.  
Maintaining proper gas pressure depends on three main factors:  
1. Vaporization rate, depending on temperature of the liquid,  
and “wetted surface” area of the container or containers.  
DUCTWORK - AIR FLOW  
WARNING  
NEVER ALLOW THE PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION, INCLUDING CARBON  
MONOXIDE, TO ENTER THE RETURN DUCT WORK OR CIRCULATION  
AIR SUPPLY.  
2. Proper pressure regulation. (Two-stage regulation is  
recommended for both cost and efficiency).  
3. Pressure drop in lines between regulators, and between  
second stage regulator and the appliance. Pipe size will  
depend on length of pipe run and total load of all appliances.  
Complete information regarding tank sizing for vaporization, recom-  
mended regulator settings, and pipe sizing is available from most regu-  
lator manufacturers and propane gas suppliers.  
Since propane gas will quickly dissolve white lead and most stan-  
dard commercial compounds, special pipe dope must be used.  
Shellac-based compounds resistant to the actions of liquefied  
petroleum gases such as Gasolac®, Stalactic®, Clyde’s® or John  
Crane® are satisfactory.  
Duct systems and register sizes must be properly designed for the  
CFM and external static pressure rating of the furnace. Design the  
ductwork in accordance with the recommended methods of “Air Con-  
ditioning Contractors ofAmerica” Manual D.  
Install the duct system in accordance with Standards of the National  
Board of Fire Underwriters for the Installation ofAir Conditioning, Warm  
Air Heating and Ventilating Systems. Pamphlets No. 90Aand 90B.  
A closed return duct system must be used, with the return duct con-  
nected to the furnace. NOTE: Ductwork must never be attached to  
the back of the furnace. Flexible joints may be used for supply and  
return connections to reduce noise transmission. To prevent the blower  
from interfering with combustion air or draft when a central return is  
used, a connecting duct must be installed between the unit and the  
utility room wall. Never us a room, closet, or alcove as a return air  
chamber.

tions.

4. Calculate the furnace input in BTUs per hour (BTU/ hr). Input  
equals the installation’s gas heating value multiplied by a  
conversion factor (hours to seconds), divided by the number  
of seconds per cubic foot. The measured input must not be  
greater than the input indicated on the unit rating plate.  
WARNING  
TO PREVENT PREMATURE FAILURE OF HEAT EXCHANGER, PROPERTY  
DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, DO NOT ADJUST THE LIMIT  
CONTROL (FACTORY-SET).  
EXAMPLE:  
Installation’s gas heating (HTG) value: 1,000 BTU/ft3  
(Obtained from gas supplier)  
This furnace is equipped with a multi-speed circulator blower. This  
blower provides ease in adjusting blower speeds. The Specifica-  
tion Sheet applicable to your model provides an airflow table, show-  
ing the relationship between airflow (CFM) and external static pres-  
sure (E.S.P.), for the proper selection of heating and cooling speeds.  
The cooling blower speed is shipped set on HIGH, and the heating  
blower speed is set as indicated in the Specification Sheet appli-  
cable to your model. These blower speeds should be adjusted by  
the installer to match the installation requirements so as to provide  
the correct heating temperature rise and correct cooling CFM.  
To adjust the circulator blower speed, proceed as follows:  
1. Turn OFF power to the furnace.  
Installation’s seconds per cubic foot: 34 sec/ ft3  
Conversion Factor (hours to seconds): 3600 sec/hr  
Input = (Htg. value x 3600) ÷ seconds per cubic foot  
Input = (1,000 BTU/ft3 x 3600 sec/hr) ÷ 34 sec/ ft3  
Input = 106,000 BTU/hr  
This measured input must not be greater than the input  
indicated on the unit rating plate.  
5. Turn ON gas and relight appliances turned off in step 1.  
Ensure all the appliances are functioning properly and that  
all pilot burners are operating.  
2. Select the heating and cooling blower speeds that match  
the installation requirements from the airflow table in the  
Specification Sheet.  
TEMPERATURE RISE  
Temperature rise must be within the range specified on the unit  
rating plate. An incorrect temperature rise may result in condens-  
ing in or overheating of the heat exchanger. An airflow and tem-  
perature rise table is provided in the Specification Sheet applicable  
to your model.  
3. Relocate desired motor leads to the circulator blower heat  
and cool speed terminals on the integrated control module.  
(Terminals are identified as LO HEAT-H, HI HEAT-H and  
COOL-H (hot)). If a heating speed and the cooling blower  
speed are the same, a jumper wire must be used between  
the heat and cool terminals.  
Determine and adjust temperature rise as follows:  
1. Operate furnace with burners firing for approximately ten  
minutes. Ensure all registers are open and all duct  
dampers are in their final (fully or partially open) position.  
4. Connect all unused blower motor leads to the “PARK”  
terminals on the integrated control module. Any leads not  
connected to the “PARK” terminals must be taped.  
2. Place thermometers in the return and supply ducts as close  
to the furnace as possible. Thermometers must not be  
influenced by radiant heat by being able to “see” the heat  
exchanger.  
5. Turn ON power to furnace.  
6. Verify proper temperature rise as outlined in Section XIV,  
Startup Procedure and Adjustment - Temperature Rise.

SETTING FURNACE OPERATING MODE  
This furnace is designed to operate with either a single gas input rate  
or with two distinct gas input rates. The Mode DIP switch is used to  
select the single gas input rate or two distinct input rates.  
Integrated control module monitors safety circuits  
continuously.  
Furnace awaits call from thermostat.  
Setting the Mode switch to “1 STG” forces the furnace to operate at  
the furnace’s highest input rate only. Operation is as described  
under Sequence of Operation (Integrated Ignition Control) – Mode  
DIP Switch is set to “1 STG” position.  
HEATING MODE  
(MODE DIP SWITCH IS SET TO “1 STG” POSITION)  
The normal operational sequence in heating mode is as follows:  
Setting the Mode switch to “2 STG” allows the furnace to operate at  
the furnace’s highest input AND at an input rate that is 75% of the  
highest input rate. For this mode of operation, the furnace oper-  
ates at the low input rate for a pre-determined time period then  
steps to the high input rate. Operation is as described under Se-  
quence of Operation (Integrated Ignition Control) – Mode DIP Switch  
is set to “2 STG” position.

period causing pressure switch contacts to close.  
Igniter warm up begins after 15 second prepurge expires.  
Low and high stage gas valves open at end of igniter warm  
up period, delivering gas to burners and establishing flame.  
The time period is determined by the 2nd Stg Dly DIP switch. Setting  
the 2nd Stg Dly DIP switch to 5 minutes fixes the delay period at 5  
minutes. Setting the 2nd Stg Dly DIP switch to Auto enables an  
algorithm that calculates a delay period based on the heating cycle  
time and the total cycle time. The delay period can range from 1  
minute to 12 minutes.  
Integrated control module monitors flame presence. Gas  
valve will remain open only if flame is detected.  
Circulator blower is energized on high heat speed following  
a fixed thirty second blower on delay. Electronic air cleaner  
terminals are energized with circulator blower.  
NOTE: The ACSH,AMH, AMEH, GCH, GDH, GMH and GME hybrid  
furnaces require a single stage thermostat. These furnaces utilize a  
control board with single stage or two stage capability. The second  
stage feature is established by setting dip switch #2 on the board,  
either one stage or two stage. All of the second stage timing is then  
controlled by dipswitch 3 on the circuit board.

and monitor the burner flame. They are normally-closed (electrically),  
manual-reset, temperature-activated sensors. These limits guard  
against burner flames not being properly drawn into the heat exchanger.  
The ignition control is equipped with a momentary pushbutton switch  
that can be used to display on the diagnostic LED the last five faults  
detected by the control. The control must be in Standby Mode (no ther-  
mostat inputs) to use the feature. Depress the pushbutton switch for  
approximately 2 seconds. Release the switch when the LED is turned  
off. The diagnostic LED will then display the flash codes associated  
with the last five detected faults. The order of display is the most re-  
cent fault to the least recent fault.  
PRESSURE SWITCHES  
The pressure switches are normally-open (closed during operation),  
single-pole single-throw, negative air pressure-activated switches.  
They monitor the airflow (combustion air and flue products) through  
the heat exchanger via pressure taps located on the induced draft  
blower and the coil front cover. These switches guard against insuffi-  
cient airflow (combustion air and flue products) through the heat ex-  
changer and/or blocked condensate drain conditions.  
RESETTING FROM LOCKOUT  
Furnace lockout results when a furnace is unable to achieve ignition  
after three attempts during a single call for heat. It is characterized by  
a non-functioning furnace and a one flash diagnostic LED code. If the  
furnace is in “lockout”, it will (or can be) reset in any of the following  
ways.  
1. Automatic reset. The integrated control module will  
automatically reset itself and attempt to resume normal  
operations following a one hour lockout period.  
FLAME SENSOR  
The flame sensor is a probe mounted to the burner/manifold assem-  
bly which uses the principle of flame rectification to determine the pres-  
ence or absence of flame.  
2. Manual power interruption. Interrupt 115 volt power to the  
furnace for 1 - 20 seconds.  
3. Manual thermostat cycle. Lower the thermostat so that  
there is no longer a call for heat then reset to previous setting.  
Interrupt thermostat signal to the furnace for 1 - 20 seconds.  
XVIII. TROUBLESHOOTING  
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS  
NOTE: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching unit. An  
electrostatic discharge can adversely affect electrical components.  
NOTE: If the condition which originally caused the lockout still  
exists, the control will return to lockout. Refer to Troubleshooting -  
Diagnostic Chart for aid in determining the cause.  
Use the following precautions during furnace installation and ser-  
vicing to protect the integrated control module from damage. By  
putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the same electro-  
static potential, these steps will help avoid exposing the integrated  
control module to electrostatic discharge. This procedure is appli-  
cable to both installed and uninstalled (ungrounded) furnaces.  
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the  
integrated control module or any wire connected to the control  
prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic charge to ground.  
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnaces  
near the control. Any tools held in a person’s hand during  
grounding will be discharged.  
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring following  
the discharge process in step 2. Use caution not to recharge  
your body with static electricity; (i.e., do not move or shuffle  
your feet, do not touch ungrounded objects, etc.). If you come  
in contact with an ungrounded object, repeat step 2 before  
touching control or wires.  
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new control  
from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if installing the  
control on a furnace. Return any old or new controls to their  
containers before touching any ungrounded object.

XIX. MAINTENANCE  
HORIZONTAL UNIT FILTER REMOVAL  
Filters in horizontal installations are located in the central return regis-  
ter or the ductwork near the furnace.

2. Remove filter(s) from the central return register or ductwork.  
3. Replace filter(s) by reversing the procedure for removal.  
4. Turn ON electrical power to furnace.  
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER  
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE. IF YOU MUST  
HANDLE THE IGNITER, HANDLE WITH CARE. TOUCHING  
THE IGNITER ELEMENT WITH BARE FINGERS, ROUGH  
HANDLING OR VIBRATION COULD DAMAGE THE IGNITER  
RESULTING IN PREMATURE FAILURE. ONLY A QUALIFIED  
SERVICER SHOULD EVER HANDLE THE IGNITER.  
MEDIA AIR FILTER OR ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER REMOVAL  
Follow the manufacturer’s directions for service.  
BURNERS  
Visually inspect the burner flames periodically during the heating sea-  
son. Turn on the furnace at the thermostat and allow several minutes  
for flames to stabilize, since any dislodged dust will alter the flames  
normal appearance. Flames should be stable, quiet, soft, and blue  
(dust may cause orange tips but they must not be yellow). They should  
extend directly outward from the burners without curling, floating, or  
lifting off. Flames must not impinge on the sides of the heat exchanger  
firing tubes.  
ANNUAL INSPECTION  
The furnace should be inspected by a qualified installer, or service  
agency at least once per year. This check should be performed at the  
beginning of the heating season. This will ensure that all furnace com-  
ponents are in proper working order and that the heating system func-  
tions appropriately. Pay particular attention to the following items. Re-  
pair or service as necessary.  
INDUCED DRAFT AND CIRCULATOR BLOWERS  
Flue pipe system. Check for blockage and/or leakage. Check  
the outside termination and the connections at and internal  
to the furnace.  
The bearings in the induced draft blower and circulator blower motors  
are permanently lubricated by the manufacturer. No further lubrication  
is required. Check motor windings for accumulation of dust which  
may cause overheating. Clean as necessary.  
Heat exchanger. Check for corrosion and/or buildup within  
the heat exchanger passageways.  
CONDENSATE TRAP AND DRAIN SYSTEM (QUALIFIED SERVICER  
ONLY)  
Burners. Check for proper ignition, burner flame, and flame  
sense.  
Drainage system. Check for blockage and/or leakage.  
Check hose connections at and internal to furnace.  
Annually inspect the drain tubes, drain trap, and field-supplied drain  
line for proper condensate drainage. Check drain system for hose  
connection tightness, blockage, and leaks. Clean or repair as  
necessary.  
Wiring. Check electrical connections for tightness and/or  
corrosion. Check wires for damage.  
FLAME SENSOR (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)  
Filters.  
Under some conditions, the fuel or air supply can create a nearly  
invisible coating on the flame sensor. This coating acts as an  
insulator causing a drop in the flame sense signal. If the flame  
sense signal drops too low the furnace will not sense flame and  
will lock out. The flame sensor should be carefully cleaned by a  
qualified servicer using emery cloth or steel wool. Following clean-  
ing, the flame sense signal should be 1 to 6 microamps at 115  
volts.  
FILTERS  
CAUTION  
TO ENSURE PROPER UNIT PERFORMANCE, ADHERE TO THE FILTER  
SIZES GIVEN IN THE RECOMMENDED MINIMUM FILTER SIZE TABLE OR  
SPECIFICATION SHEET APPLICABLE TO YOUR MODEL*  
IGNITER (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)  
*NOTE: Please contact your distributor or our website for the  
applicable Specification Sheet referred to in this manual.  
If the igniter and the surrounding air are at about 70°F and the  
igniter wires are not connected to any other electrical components,  
the resistance of the igniter should not exceed 75 ohms. If it does,  
the igniter should be replaced.  
MAINTENANCE  
Improper filter maintenance is the most common cause of inad-  
equate heating or cooling performance. Filters should be cleaned  
(permanent) or replaced (disposable) every two months or as re-  
quired. When replacing a filter, it must be replaced with a filter of  
the same type and size.  
FLUE PASSAGES (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)  
The heat exchanger flue passageways should be inspected at the  
beginning of each heating season. If necessary, clean the pas-  
sageways as outlined below.  
FILTER REMOVAL  
Depending on the installation, differing filter arrangements can be  
applied. Filters can be installed in either the central return register  
or a side panel external filter rack (upflow only). A media air filter or  
electronic air cleaner can be used as an alternate filter. Follow the  
filter sizes given in the Recommended Minimum Filter size table to  
ensure proper unit performance.  
1. Turn OFF the electrical power and gas supply to the furnace.  
2. Disconnect the gas line and remove the burner/ manifold  
assembly by removing the screws securing the assembly  
to the partition panel.  
3. Disconnect the flue pipe system from the induced draft  
blower.  
To remove filters from an external filter rack in an upright upflow instal-  
lation, follow the directions provided with external filter rack kit.  
4. Remove the induced draft blower and, drain and pressure  
tap hoses from the recuperator coil front cover.  
5. Remove the recuperator coil front cover to expose the coil tubes  
and turbulators.  
40  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
6. Remove the recuperator coil turbulators individually by slowly  
pulling each turbulator forward firmly.  
7. Clean the recuperator coil tubes using a long handle wire brush,  
such as a gun cleaning brush.  
8. Clean the primary heat exchanger tubes using a wire brush  
attached to a length of high grade stainless steel cable, such  
as drain cleanout cable. Attach a variable speed reversible  
drill to the other end of the cable. Slowly rotate the cable with  
the drill and insert it into one of the heat exchanger tubes.  
While reversing the drill, work the cable in and out several times  
to obtain sufficient cleaning. Repeat for each tube.  
9. Clean residue from furnace using a vacuum cleaner.  
10. Replace the parts removed in the previous steps in reverse  
order.  
11. Turn on electrical power and gas to furnace. Check for leaks  
and proper unit operation.  
12. Severe heat exchanger fouling is an indication of an operational  
problem. Perform the checks listed in Section XIV, Startup  
Procedure andAdjustments to reduce the chances of repeated  
fouling.  
XX. BEFORE LEAVING AN INSTALLATION  
Cycle the furnace with the thermostat at least three times.  
Verify cooling and fan only operation.  
Review the Owner’s Manual with the homeowner and  
discuss proper furnace operation and maintenance.  
Leave literature packet near furnace.

2. All furnaces ship as high speed cooling and medium-speed heating. Installer must adjust blower cooling & heating speed as needed.  
3. For most jobs, about 400 CFM per ton when cooling is desirable.  
4. INSTALLATION IS TO BE ADJUSTED TO OBTAIN TEMPERATURE RISE WITHIN THE RANGE SPECIFIED ON THE RATING PLATE.  
5. The chart is for information only. For satisfactory operation, external static pressure must not exceed value shown on rating plate. The shaded area indicates ranges  
in excess of maximum external static pressure allowed when heating. The data for 0.6" w.c. to 0.8" w.c. is shown for air conditioning purposes only.  
6. At higher altitudes, a properly de-rated unit will have approximately the same temperature rise at a particular CFM, while the ESP at that CFM will be lower.

1. CFM in chart is without filters(s). Filters do not ship with this furnace, but must be provided by the installer. If the furnace requires two return filters, this chart assumes  
both filters are installed.  
2. All furnaces ship as high speed cooling and medium-speed heating. Installer must adjust blower cooling & heating speed as needed.  
3. For most jobs, about 400 CFM per ton when cooling is desirable.  
4. INSTALLATION IS TO BE ADJUSTED TO OBTAIN TEMPERATURE RISE WITHIN THE RANGE SPECIFIED ON THE RATING PLATE.  
5. The chart is for information only. For satisfactory operation, external static pressure must not exceed value shown on rating plate. The shaded area indicates ranges  
in excess of maximum external static pressure allowed when heating. The data for 0.6" w.c. to 0.8" w.c. is shown fo air conditioning purposes only.  
6. At higher altitudes, a properly de-rated unit will have approximately the same temperature rise at a particular CFM, while the ESP at that CFM will be lower.
