4. If you touch ungrounded objects (and recharge your body
with static electricity), firmly touch a clean, unpainted
metal surface of the furnace again before touching control
or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (ungroun-
ded) furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container, dis-
charge your body’s electrostatic charge to ground to pro-
tect the control from damage. If the control is to be in-
stalled in a furnace, follow items 1 through 4 before
bringing the control or yourself in contact with the fur-
nace. Put all used and new controls into containers before
touching ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources)
may also be used to prevent ESD damage.
LOCATION
GENERAL
This multipoise furnace is shipped in packaged configuration.
Some assembly and modifications are required when used in any
of the four applications shown in Fig. 5.
NOTE
:
For high--altitude installations, the high--altitude
conversion kit MUST be installed at or above 5500 ft. (1676 M)
above sea level. Obtain high--altitude conversion kit from your
area authorized distributor.
This furnace must:
S
be installed so the electrical components are protected
from water.
S
not be installed directly on any combustible material
other than wood flooring (refer to SAFETY
CONSIDERATIONS).
S
be located close to the chimney or vent and attached to
an air distribution system. Refer to Air Ducts section.
S
be provided ample space for servicing and cleaning.
Always comply with minimum fire protection clear-
ances shown on the furnace clearance to combustible
construction label.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING / COMPONENT
DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death and unit component damage.
Corrosive or contaminated air may cause failure of parts
containing flue gas, which could leak into the living space.
Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen
compounds, which include fluoride, chloride, bromide, and
iodide. These elements can corrode heat exchangers and
shorten furnace life. Air contaminants are found in aerosol
sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air
fresheners, and other household products. Do not install
furnace in a corrosive or contaminated atmosphere. Make
sure all combustion and circulating air requirements are met,
in addition to all local codes and ordinances.
!
WARNING
The following types of furnace installations may require
OUTDOOR AIR for combustion due to chemical exposures:
S
Commercial buildings
S
Buildings with indoor pools
S
Laundry rooms
S
Hobby or craft rooms, and
S
Chemical storage areas
If air is exposed to the following substances, it should not be used
for combustion air, and outdoor air may be required for
combustion:
S
Permanent wave solutions
S
Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
S
Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals
S
Water softening chemicals
S
De--icing salts or chemicals
S
Carbon tetrachloride
S
Halogen type refrigerants
S
Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene)
S
Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.
S
Hydrochloric acid
S
Cements and glues
S
Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers
S
Masonry acid washing materials
All fuel--burning equipment must be supplied with air for fuel
combustion. Sufficient air must be provided to avoid negative
pressure in the equipment room or space. A positive seal must be
made between the furnace cabinet and the return--air duct to
prevent pulling air from the burner area and from draft safeguard
opening.
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury, death and/or property damage.
When the furnace is installed in a residential garage, the
burners and ignition sources must be located at least 18 in.
(457 mm) above the floor. The furnace must be located or
protected to avoid damage by vehicles. When the furnace is
installed in a public garage, airplane hangar, or other
building having a hazardous atmosphere, the furnace must
be installed in accordance with the NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1--2012 . (See Fig. 4.)
