Example 2
A direct-vent 60,000 BTUH furnace installed at 2100 ft. (640M). Venting system includes
FOR EACH PIPE:
100 feet (30 M) of
vent pipe, 95 feet (29 M) of combustion air inlet pipe, (3) 90º long-radius elbows, and a polypropylene concentric vent kit. Also
includes 20 feet (6.1 M) of flexible polypropylene vent pipe, included within the 100 feet (30 M) of vent pipe.
VERIFY FROM POLYPROPYLENE VENT MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS for the multiplier correction for flexible vent pipe.
Can this application use 60mm o.d. (2”) polypropylene vent piping? If not, what size piping can be used?
START-UP, ADJUSTMENT, AND SAFETY
CHECK
General
1. Furnace must have a 115-v power supply properly connected and
grounded.
NOTE:
Proper polarity must be maintained for 115-v wiring. Control
status indicator light flashes rapidly (Status Code 10) and furnace does
not operate if polarity is incorrect or if the furnace is not grounded.
2. Thermostat wire connections at terminals R, W/W1, G, and Y/Y2
must be made at 24-v terminal block on furnace control.
3. Natural gas service pressure must not exceed 0.5 psig (14- in. w.c.,
350 Pa), but must be no less than 0.16 psig (4.5-in. w.c., 1125 Pa).
4. Blower door must be in place to complete 115-v electrical circuit
and supply power to furnace components.
Before operating furnace, check flame rollout manual reset switch for
continuity. If necessary, press button to reset switch.
EAC-1 terminal is energized whenever blower operates. HUM terminal
is only energized when the blower is energized in heating.
Setup Switches
There are two sets of setup switches on the furnace control board. These
switches configure the furnace for correct application requirement. They
also select the airflow settings for Air Conditioning and Continuous Fan
airflows.
The Setup Switch locations are shown and described on
.
The
setup switches are also shown on the unit wiring label.
Setup Switches (SW1)
The furnace control has 8 setup switches that may be set to meet the
application requirements. Refer to the Adjustments section for setup
switch configurations. To set these setup switches for the appropriate
requirement:
1. Remove blower door.
2. Locate setup switches on furnace control.
3. Configure the setup switches as necessary for the application.
4. Replace blower door.
NOTE:
If a bypass humidifier is used, setup switch SW1-4
(Comfort/Efficiency) should be in OFF=Efficiency position. This

For 3” pipe from
Is TEVL less than MEVL?
YES
Therefore, 80mm (3”) pipe MAY be used
NOTICE
!
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION AND START-UP PROCEDURES
Failure to follow this procedure may result in a nuisance smoke or odor
complaint.
The manifold pressure, gas rate by meter clocking, temperature rise and
operation must be checked after installation. Minor smoke and odor
may be present temporarily after start-up from the manufacturing
process. Some occupants are more sensitive to this minor smoke and
odor. It is recommended that doors and windows be open during the
first heat cycle.
CAUTION
!
UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in intermittent unit operation
or performance dissatisfaction.
These furnaces are equipped with a manual reset limit switch in burner
assembly. This switch opens and shuts off power to the gas valve if an
overheat condition (flame rollout) occurs in the burner
assembly/enclosure. Correct inadequate combustion-air supply,
improper gas pressure setting, improper burner or gas orifice
positioning, or improper venting condition before resetting switch. DO
NOT jumper this switch.
