PERSONAL INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE
HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
Excessive condensate draining may cause saturated soil
conditions which could result in damage to plants.
!
WARNING
CONDENSATE DRAIN PROTECTION
Freezing condensate left in condensate trap and drain line may
cause cracks, and possible water damage may occur. If freeze
protection is required, use condensate freeze protection accessory
or equivalent 3 to 6 watt per ft at 120-v and 40

self-regulating, shielded, and waterproof heat tape. See
Installation Instructions supplied with accessory or heat tape
manufacturer’s recommendations.
1. Fold heat tape in half and wrap on itself 3 times.
2. Locate heat tape between sides of condensate trap back.
(See Fig. 47.)
3. Use wire ties to secure heat tape in place. Wire ties can be
positioned in notches of condensate trap sides. (See Fig.
47.)
4. Wrap field drain pipe with remaining heat tape,
approximately 1 wrap per ft.
5. When using field-supplied heat tape, follow heat tape
manufacturer’s instructions for all other installation
guidelines.
START-UP ADJUSTMENT AND
SAFETY CHECK
FURNACE MAY NOT OPERATE
Failure to follow this caution may result in furnace operation
stopping and water pipes freezing during cold weather.
Furnace control must be grounded for proper operation, or
control will lockout. Control is grounded through green/yellow
wire connected to gas valve C-terminal and burner box screw.

Step 1 -- General
The furnace must have a 115-v power supply properly connected
and grounded.
NOTE
:
Proper polarity and proper grounding must be
maintained for 115-v wiring. If polarity is incorrect or furnace is
not grounded, control status indicator light will flash rapidly and
the furnace will not operate.
Natural gas service pressure must not exceed 0.5 psig (14-IN.
WC), and be no less than 0.16 psig (4.5-IN. WC).
Thermostat wire connections at R and W/W1 are the minimum
required for gas heating operation. W2 must be connected for
2-stage heating thermostats. C
OM
, Y/Y2, and G are required for
cooling, heat pumps, and some clock thermostats. These must be
made at the 24-v terminal block on the control. (See Fig. 37.)
