5. Disassemble loose pipe fittings. Clean and cement using same
procedures as used for system piping.
6. Check required dimensions as shown in Fig. 38 or 39.
MULTIVENTING AND VENT TERMINATIONS
When 2 or more 58MTA furnaces are vented near each other, each
furnace must be individually vented. NEVER common vent or
breach vent 58MTA furnaces. When 2 or more 58MTA furnaces
are vented near each other, 2 vent terminations may be installed as
shown in Fig. 43, 44, 45, 46, or 47, but the next vent termination
must be at least 36 in. away from first 2 terminations. It is
important that vent terminations be made as shown to avoid
recirculation of flue gases. Dimension A in Fig. 43, 44, 45, 46, and
47 represents distance between pipes or rain shields, as touching or
2-in. maximum separation.
Step 10—Condensate Drain
UNIT MAY NOT OPERATE
Failure to follow this caution may result in intermittent unit
operation.
Unit must not be installed, operated, and then turned off and
left in an unoccupied structure during cold weather when
temperature drops to 32°F and below unless drain trap and
drain line have adequate freeze protection. See Service and
Maintenance Instructions for winterizing procedure. (See Fig.
42.)
GENERAL
Condensate trap is shipped installed in the blower shelf and factory
connected for UPFLOW applications. Condensate trap must be
RELOCATED for use in DOWNFLOW and HORIZONTAL
applications.
Condensate trap MUST be used for all applications.
