for installation in the upflow or horizontal position. The
furnace is shipped with the bottom panel in place. The
bottom panel must be removed if the unit is to be installed
in horizontal or upflow applications with bottom return air.
The A96UH1E can be installed as either a Direct Vent or a
Non-Direct Vent gas central furnace.
The furnace is equipped for installation in natural gas
applications. A conversion kit (ordered separately) is

from outdoors and flue gases are discharged outdoors. In
Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken from
indoors or ventilated attic or crawlspace and flue gases
