14. Do not connect to any furnace that is not equipped 

with an air circulation blower.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ADHERE TO THE MINI-

MUM INSTALLATION CLEARANCES TO ENSURE A 

SAFE INSTALLATION.

Installation

Before installation is started read and make sure that you 

understand these instructions.

1. Inspect unit to ensure that it has not been damaged in 

transit.

2. Remove electric controls and Instruction Envelope 

shipped inside firebox.

3. Install plenums and ductwork in accordance with Duct 

Diagram included in these instructions.

4. Do not connect duct work so that a reverse flow is 

possible.

5. “BX” type cable used for wiring between existing oil 

furnace and S-150 add-on, shall be installed with 1” 

“stand-offs” to prevent it from coming in contact with 

the S-150 casing.

6. The S-150 Summeraire add-on unit shall only be 

installed on a furnace duct system and chimney which 

are in good operating condition.

7. Do not use duct elbows having an inside radius of less 

than 6”.

8. Do not relocate or bypass any of the safety controls in 

the original furnace installation.

9. The blower in the oil or gas fired furnace shall not be 

changed.

10. To obtain the required air flow or temperature rise 

through the system, the blower and motor pulleys and 

the blower motor may have to be changed. Current 

flow through motor is to be maintained within name 

plate rating.

11. Install Limit Control Bracket as shown on assembled 

drawing using all holes provieded. Make sure this 

bracket is installed on the upper front of casing, fur-

thest from interconnecting duct. Install the prewired 

fan and limit Controls factory set at 280°F in hole 

provided nearest side of furnace and install fan and 

limit control Factory set at 200°F, in hole furthest from 

side of furnace regardless of right of left hand location 

of said mounting bracket.

12. Equipment shall be installed in a manner acceptable 

to the Regualatory Authority and only by mechanics 

experienced in such installations. When required by 

the Authority, such mechanics shall be licensed.

13. A separate thermostat must be installed and a new 

wire run to control this furnace.

Control Settings

Room Thermostat should be set in the 65°F to 70°F range.

Wood fan and limit control setting - 280°F (Factory Set)

Secondary oil limit control setting - 200°F (Factory Set)

Circulation fan blower off at 155°F (cuts in blower fan 

when temperature is reached).

Circualtion fan blower off at 110°F (blower fan cuts out 

when heat exchanger is cooled below this setting).

High limit cut out 280°F closes draft damper door when 

heat exchanger reaches this temperature. Draft at chimney 

should be between .05 and .08 inches water column.

The C.S.A. Certified Draft Regulator supplied must be 

installed and set at .06” W.C.

WARNING

: If the draft regulator setting of .06 W.C. is 

exceeded, it could cause a solid fuel fire to burn out-of-

control.

The damper door on the S-150 has an opening limited to 

1/2” by a tab and screw arrangement. This is the maxi-

mum that this furnace is designed to fire at. Any tamper

-

ing of this will cause an out-of-control fire.

After Installation Check

Turn on electrical power to the unit. Set thermostat below 

room temperature. The damper door should be shut.

Set thermostat higher than room temperature. Damper 

door should be open.

Push in the button on the Honeywell fan limit control and 

the circulation blower fan motor should come on. Return 

the button to the auto position for firing.
