OCATION
1. The furnace area and the vicinity of any other gas appli-
ances must be kept clear and free of combustible mate-
rials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
Also, do not store or use flammable items such as paint,
varnish, or lacquer in the area.
2. Do not store or use chlorine or fluorine products
(bleaches, cements, strippers, aerosols) near the unit.
They can corrode the heat exchanger.
3. Do not use the furnace closet as storage for brooms,
mops, brushes and oily rags or cloths. The area must be
kept clear, clean and free of lint. Furnace must be kept
free and clear of exposed or loose insulation materials
in the area of installation. Examine the furnace area
when the furnace or additional insulation is added since
some insulation materials may be combustible.
4. Make sure the furnace is always connected to an ap-
proved vent, in good condition, to carry combustion prod-
ucts outdoors.
5. Familiarize yourself with the controls that shut off the
gas and electrical power to the furnace. If the furnace
is to be shut down at the end of the heating season,
turn off both the gas and electrical power. For safety,
always turn the gas and electrical power off before per-
forming service or maintenance on the furnace.
6. Establish a regular maintenance schedule to insure effi-
cient and safe operation of the furnace. The furnace
should be checked at the beginning of each heating and
cooling season by a qualified service technician.

are always maintained. These clearances are listed on
the furnace clearance label. If any question develops,
contact the installer of the furnace or another qualified
servicer.

NSTALLATION
Examine the furnace installation to determine the follow-
ing:
1. All flue product carrying passages external to the fur-
nace (i.e. chimney, vent connector) are clear and free
of obstructions.
2. The vent connector is in place, slopes upward and is
physically sound without holes or excessive corrosion.
3. The return air duct connection is physically sound, sealed
to the furnace casing, and terminates outside the space
containing the furnace.
4. The physical support of the furnace is sound without
sagging, cracks, or gaps around the base so as to pro-
vide a seal between the support and the base.
5. There are no obvious signs of deterioration of the fur-
nace.
6. Check for proper burner flame performance. Flame
should extend directly outward from burners without
curling, floating, or lifting off.
