Locating Furnace On Wall

The furnace is to be located on a wall. The furnace is 16 inches (406mm) 

in width and normal 16” (406mm) on center studs will not allow the fur-

nace to be recessed into the wall unless a stud is repositioned.
A template is proved in furnace carton for locating gas line connection. 

Also, refer to Figure 2 for positioning the furnace on wall and for locating 

gas line connection.

Locating Gas Supply

The gas line can enter the furnace either though the floor or wall. The gas 

line opening should be made at this time. Location of the opening will be 

determined by the position of floor joists and the valve and union used 

for servicing.

Location Electric Supply

A 7/8” (22mm) diameter knockout is provided at the bottom of the left 

and right side panels. A three-prong (grounding) plug assembly is located 

within the control compartment (bottom) of the furnace. Please remove 

7/8” (22mm) knockout from appropriate side panel when routing plug 

assembly to an electrical outlet.

Installation of Three-prong (Grounding) Plug Assembly

1.  Disconnect nylon cap on 3’ (914mm) plug assembly from nylon plug 

on wiring harness. Remove 3’  (914mm) plug assembly from control 

compartment (bottom) of the furnace.

2.  Remove 7/8” (22mm) knockout from appropriate side panel.

3.  Insert nylon cap on 3’ (914mm) plug assembly into the 7/8” (22mm) 

hole in the side panel.

4.  Connect nylon cap on 3’ (914mm) plug assembly to nylon plug on 

the wiring harness.
