3 Ton Models 1400 CFM

4 Ton Models 1760 CFM

5 Ton Models 2200 CFM

Setup Furnace Airflow: adjust the Gas Heating Airflow 

menu  (gAF)  setting  to  the  desired  percentage  of 

maximum airflow.  In most cases the default gas heat 

airflow will provide a temperature rise near the middle of 

the acceptable range.  High Stage CFM can be calculated 

by the following equation: CFM = Max CFM * Selected 

Heating Airfow Percentage.

For  Communicating  Outdoor  Units:  Main  airflow 

adjustment  is  not  required.  The  Outdoor  unit  will 

determine the appropriate amount of indoor airflow to 

request.  Airflow Trims can be made if desired.

For Non-Communicating outdoor units, determine the 

proper airflow (based off tonnage of) the outdoor unit.  

Most cooling systems are designed to work with airflow 

between  350  and  450  CFM  per  ton.    400  CFM/TON  is 

the industry standard.  Once desired airflow has been 

determined, see Tonnage / Airflow table to identify the 

Tonnage Selection that is closest to the desired airflow.   

This table is based on 400 CFM per ton where Airflow = 

(400 CFM) x (Selected Tonnage).

Example: if 1520 CFM is the desired airflow the Tonnage 

Selection that matches this is 3.8

Enter  the  Tonnage  (ton)  menu  either  by  using  the  on 

board push buttons or phone application and select the 

Tonnage Selection you identified.    Note: Trim is also 

available if additional adjustment is required.

Cooling Airflow Ramping Profiles

The multi-circulator blower also offers several custom 

ON/ OFF ramping profiles. These profiles may be used to 

enhance cooling performance and increase comfort level. 

The ramping profiles are selected using the Cooling Airflow 

Profile menu (if push buttons are used, use the CAP menu 

to select the desired profile). Refer to the bullet points below 

for a description of each ramping profile.

Profile D(4 or 5)

In general lower heating speeds will: reduce electrical consumption, 

lower operating sound levels of the blower, and increase the outlet 

air temperature delivered to the home if heatmode is running.  

If cooling mode is running the same airflow adjustment will 

decrease the outlet air temperature delivered to the home.   

The speeds available allow the blower performance to be 

optimized for the particular homeowner’s needs.

Low Voltage Wiring  -  General Information

The Furnace functions with any thermostat that can be 

configured to provide 24VAC on Y for cooling calls and 24VAC 

on W for Heating calls.  Based on these simple inputs, internal 

algorithms will decide how to control two stages of furnace 

heat in addition to any single or multi stage outdoor heating / 

cooling operation (the algorithms will handle dual fuel multi-

stage systems as well).  The thermostat must be setup to 

provide only a Y call when cooling is required and only a W 

call when heating is required.  This is generally accomplished 

by selecting single stage heat / single stage cool mode during 

setup (if setup is required).  Do not set thermostat to heat 

pump operation as system will not operate properly.
Note: The only exception is if a single stage non-communicating 

Heat Pump is connected to the furnace.  Refer to Non-

Communicating Single Stage Heat Pump diagram for details.
Thermostat connections to the control board are R, C, G, 

W, Y & Dehum.  Provided the thermostat does not require a 

common wire as few as two thermostat wires may be used 

for  heat only (R and W) or cool only (R and Y) systems. A 

minimum three thermostat wires may be used for heating 

and cooling systems (R, W and Y). Refer to thermostat wiring 

diagrams below for your system configuration. 

Low voltage connections can be made through either the right 

or left side panel of the furnace.  Thermostat wiring entrance 

holes are located in the blower compartment.
