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.

NFORMATION

The MBVC Blower Cabinets are used in combination with a
cased evaporator coil.  This combination of blower and coil
functions as the indoor part of a split air-conditioning system,
and may be matched with a remote condensing or heat pump
unit.  The blower cabinet can also function as an electric fur-
nace when used with an electric heater.

NOTE:

The electric heating elements for  electric furnace

installation are not shipped with the cabinet and are field-
installed.

Systems should be properly sized by heat gain and loss cal-
culations made according to methods of the Air Conditioning
Contractors Association (ACCA) or equivalent.  It is the
contractor’s responsibility to ensure the system has adequate
capacity to heat or cool the conditioned space.

F

EATURES

This modular blower is a part of the ComfortNet™ family of
products.  It may be installed as part of a “legacy” system
using a standard 24 VAC thermostat.  However, with the
CTK01AA ComfortNet™ thermostat kit, this modular blower
may be installed as part of a digitally communicating system.
The ComfortNet™ system provides automatic airflow con-
figuration, enhanced setup features, and enhanced diagnos-
tics.  It also reduces the number of thermostat wires to a
maximum of four.
