Non-Suspended Horizontal Installation

To support the furnace from below, set the furnace on non 

-combustible material suitable to support the weight of the 

unit. Using a carpenter’s level, check furnace in at least 

two directions. To make adjustments, use shims of non-

combustible material. Seven inches minimum clearance 

between  the  bottom  of  the  flue  pipe  and  combustible 

material  is  required.  Installation  on  a  combustible  floor 

requires a 1” clearance from the floor.

Suspended Horizontal Installation

Before suspending the furnace, remove the knockouts in 

the top of the panel at the warm air discharge and at the 

blower panel. Use 3/8” threaded rods cut to the desired 

length.  Use  one  flat  washer  and  two  nuts  on  each  rod. 

Place one nut and one flat washer on the inside of the unit 

and one nut on the outside (see Figure 1). The outside nut 

serves as the locking nut. Level the unit using the inside 

nuts.

Horizontal Installation Reversing the Air Flow

This furnace is assembled to discharge warm air out 

the left side (when viewed facing the burner side of the 

furnace). If installation requires that the flow be reversed, 

follow these steps:
1.  Rotate the furnace 180° so that the warm air is 

discharged out the right side.

2.  Remove the oil burner and the screws securing the 

burner mounting plate. Rotate the burner mounting 

plate 180° and reattach with screws. Remount the 

burner in the upright position.

3.  Remove the screws holding the limit control in place. 

Relocate the limit control to the top side of the front 

panel using the knockout hole provided.

Counterflow Installation

This furnace is assembled to discharge warm air out the left 

side (when viewed facing the burner side of the furnace). 

To convert to counterflow:

1.  Rotate the furnace so the return is on top and the 

supply is on bottom.

2.  Remove the oil burner and the screws securing the 

burner mounting plate. Rotate the burner mounting 

plate 90° clockwise and reattach the screws into the 

heat exchanger. Remount the burner.

3.  Refer to Figure 3 for minimum clearances required.

When  installing  a  counterflow  unit  on  combustible 

flooring, a combustible floor base must be used.

 See 

Figure 4 for more information on using a combustible floor 

base kit.
