hole. (Install flat washer if desired.)
3. Install another nut on other side of furnace base. (Install flat washer
if desired.)
4. Adjust outside nut to provide desired height, and tighten inside nut
to secure arrangement.
5. Reinstall bottom closure panel if removed.
DOWNFLOW INSTALLATION
NOTE: For downflow applications, this furnace is approved for use on
combustible flooring when any one of the following 3 accessories are
used:
• Special Base, KGASB
• Cased Coil Assembly Part No. CNPV, CNRV, CAP, or CAR
• Coil Box Part No. KCAKC
1. Determine application being installed from Table 3 .
2. Construct hole in floor, see Table 3 and Fig. 10 .
3. Construct plenum to dimensions specified, see Table 3 and Fig. 10 .
NOTE: It is recommended that the perforated supply-air duct flanges be
completely folded over or removed from furnace when installing the
furnace on a factory-supplied cased coil or coil box. To remove the
supply-air duct flange, use wide duct pliers or hand seamers to bend
flange back and forth until it breaks off. Be careful of sharp edges.
(Refer to Duct Flanges (Fig.16) in the “Air Ducts” section.)
