CUT HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury.
Sheet metal parts may have sharp edges or burrs. Use care
and wear appropriate protective clothing, safety glasses and
gloves when handling parts and servicing furnaces.
CAUTION
!
1. Use only with type of gas approved for this furnace. Refer
to the furnace rating plate.
2. Install this furnace only in a location and position as
specified in the “Location” section of these instructions.
3. Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to the
furnace space as specified in “Air for Combustion and
Ventilation” section.
4. Combustion products must be discharged outdoors.
Connect this furnace to an approved vent system only, as
specified in the “Venting” section of these instructions.
5. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a
commercially available soap solution made specifically for
the detection of leaks to check all connections, as specified
in the “Gas Piping” section.
6. Always install furnace to operate within the furnace’s
intended temperature--rise range with a duct system which
has an external static pressure within the allowable range,
as specified in the “Start--Up, Adjustments, and Safety
Check” section. See furnace rating plate.
7. When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air
circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space
containing the furnace, the return air shall also be handled
by duct(s) sealed to the furnace casing and terminating
outside the space containing the furnace. See “Air Ducts”
section.
8. A gas--fired furnace for installation in a residential garage
must be installed as specified in the warning box in the
“Location” section (see Fig. 5).
9. The furnace is not permitted to be used for heating of
buildings under construction.
10. These Multipoise Gas--Fired Furnaces are CSA (formerly
A.G.A. and C.G.A). design--certified for use with natural
gas (see furnace rating plate) and for installation in
alcoves, attics, basements, closets, utility rooms,
crawlspaces, and garages. The furnace is factory--shipped
for use with natural gas and cannot be converted for use
with propane.
11. See Fig. 2 for required clearances to combustible
construction.
12. Maintain a 1--in. (25 mm) clearance from combustible
materials to supply air ductwork for a distance of 36
inches (914 mm) horizontally from the furnace. See
current edition of NFPA 90B or local code for further
requirements.
13. These furnaces SHALL NOT be installed directly on car-
peting, tile, or any other combustible material other than
wood flooring. In downflow installations, factory access-
ory floor base MUST be used when installed on combust-
ible materials and wood flooring. Special base is not re-
quired when this furnace is installed on manufacturer’s
approved coil assembly or a manufacturer’s coil casing
box is used. See Fig. 2 for clearance to combustible con-
struction.
INTRODUCTION
This 4--way multipoise Category I fan--assisted furnace is CSA
design--certified. A Category I fan--assisted furnace is an
appliance equipped with an integral mechanical means to either
draw or force products of combustion through the combustion
chamber and/or heat exchanger. The furnace is factory--shipped
for use with natural gas.
This furnace is not approved for installation in mobile homes,
recreational vehicles, or outdoors. The furnace is not permitted to
be used for heating of buildings under construction. This furnace
is designed for minimum continuous return--air temperature of
60
_
F (16
_
C)db or intermittent operation down to 55
_
F (13
_
C)
db such as when used with a night setback thermostat. Return--air
temperature must not exceed 80
_
F (27
_
C) db. Failure to follow
these return--air temperature limits may affect reliability of heat
exchangers, motors, and controls. (See Fig. 3).
For accessory installation details, refer to the applicable
instruction literature.
NOTE
: Remove all shipping brackets and materials before
operating the furnace.
