II. SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Adhere to the following warnings and cautions when installing, adjust-
ing, altering, servicing, or operating the furnace.   To ensure proper
installation and operation, thoroughly read this manual for specifics
pertaining to the installation and application of this product.
This furnace is manufactured for use with natural gas. It may be field
converted to operate on L.P. gas by using the appropriate L.P. conver-
sion kit listed in the

 PROPANE GAS/HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLA-

TIONS section

 of this manual

Install this furnace only in a location and position as specified in 

LO-

CATION REQUIREMENTS & CONSIDERATIONS section and IN-
STALLATION POSITIONS section 

of this manual.

Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to the furnace as
specified in 

COMBUSTION & VENTILATION AIR REQUIREMENTS

section of this manual.

Combustion products must be discharged to the outdoors. Connect
this furnace to an approved vent system only, as specified in 

VENT/

FLUE PIPE & COMBUSTION AIR PIPE

 section of this manual.

Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially avail-
able soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks to check
all connections, as specified in 

GAS SUPPLY AND PIPING

 section of

this manual.
Always install a furnace to operate within the furnace’s intended tem-
perature-rise range with a duct system which has external static pres-

and 

OPERATIONAL CHECKS section

 of these instructions.

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.
A gas-fired furnace for installation in a residential garage must be in-
stalled as specified in the
