INTRODUCTION

Always consult your local Building Department regarding regulations, 

codes or ordinances which apply to the installation of a direct vent wall 

furnace.

tion.

2.  Installer must have owner fill out and mail warranty card supplied 

with furnace.

3.  Installer should show owner how to start and operate furnace and

General Information

This furnace is design certified in accordance with American National 

Standard/CSA Standard Z21.86b-2002 and CSA 2.32b-2002 by the 

Canadian Standards Association, as a fan type direct vent wall furnace 

to be installed according to these instructions.

Any alteration of the original design, installed other than as shown 

in these instructions or use with a type of gas not shown on the rat-

ing plate is the responsibility of the person and company making the 

change.
Important

All correspondence should refer to complete Model No., Serial No., and 

type of gas.

Notice:

 During initial firing of this unit, its paint will bake out and smoke 

will occur. To prevent triggering of smoke alarms, ventilate the room in 

which the unit is installed.

Installation on Rugs and Tile

If this appliance is installed directly on carpeting, tile or other combus-

tible material other than wood flooring, the appliance shall be installed 

on a metal or wood panel extending the full width and depth of the 

appliance.
The base referred to above does not mean the fire-proof base as used on 

wood stoves. The protection is for rugs that are extremely thick and light 

colored tile.

Installation in Residential Garages

Gas  utilization  equipment  in  residential  garages  shall  be  installed  so 

that all burners and burner ignition devices are located not less than 18” 

above the floor.

Such equipment shall be located, or protected, so it is not subject to phys-

ical damage by a moving vehicle.

Qualified Installing Agency

Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization equipment or 

accessories  and  repair  and  servicing  of  equipment  shall  be  performed 

only by a qualified agency. The term “qualified agency” means any indi-

vidual, firm, corporation or company which either in person or through 

a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (a) the installation 

or replacement of gas piping or (b) the connection, installation, repair or 

servicing of equipment, who is experienced in such work, familiar with 

all precautions required and has complied with all the requirements of the 

authority having jurisdiction.

The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local 

codes, with the 

National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54* Natural 

Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.

* Available from the American National Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd St., New York, 
N.Y. 10036

High Altitudes

For altitudes/elevations above 2,000 feet, input ratings should be reduced 

at the rate of 4 percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level. For Canadian 

high altitude applications, this appliance is suitable for installation at el-

evations between 0 feet and 4,500 feet without change.

Piezo Pilot Ignitor Instructions

Depressing the red button completely causes a spark to occur at the pilot. 

This is a substitute for a match which requires opening the pilot hole 

cover.
To light the pilot, it is important that the electrode be 1/8” from the ther-

mocouple. The spark must occur at the point the burner flame hits the 

thermocouple. The end of the electrode will be red hot with the pilot on.
On a new installation with air in the gas line, it is suggested that a match 

be used. The match will light the pilot faster than the piezo under this 

condition.

Warning:

Any change to this furnace or its control can be dangerous. This 

is a heating appliance and any panel, door, or guard removed 

for servicing an appliance must be replaced prior to operating 

the appliance.

State of Massachusetts: 

The installation must be made by a licensed 

plumber or gas fitter in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
