5. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially
available soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks
to check all connections, as specified in the “Gas Piping” section.
6. Always install furnace to operate within the furnace’s intended
temperature-rise range with a duct system which has an external
static pressure within the allowable range, as specified in the
“Start-Up, Adjustments, and Safety Check” section. See furnace
rating plate.
7. When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air circulated
by the furnace to areas outside the space containing the furnace, the
return air shall also be handled by duct(s) sealed to the furnace
casing and terminating outside the space containing the furnace.
