INSTALLATION

Please see all methods of Installation in
Appendix at the rear of this booklet.

                    Pipe to combustible:

                        Sides: 21"

                        Back: 18"

The installation must be made only on a           non-

combustible floor.

     d) Install the smoke pipe connector to the    chim-
ney with 26-gauge pipe and elbows (to be pur-

chased separately), maintaining the proper  clear-

ances for the specific model.  Seal the smoke pipe

in the chimney with furnace cement. (The chimney

connector shall be securely supported, and joints

fastened with sheet metal screws or rivets.)
     e) Install 8" diameter heat pipe to plenum of the

central hot air furnace.  Use 26-gauge pipe and

connectors (to be purchased separately).  (See  Fig.

15)  If central air conditioning is installed in the

plenum, install heat pipe above the air conditioning

unit.  Secure heat pipe connection with supports and
sheet metal screws.

     f) Connect electrical supply in the electrical  junc-

tion box that is mounted on the back of the Furnace.

See Wiring Diagram (Fig. 11).  Remove the cover

from electrical junction box and connect power

supply wires to wires designated, using wire nuts.
The power cord supplied may be used for installa-

tion, if permitted by local codes and        regulations.

If the power cord supplied cannot be used, the

power supply wiring must be 90 degrees centigrade

in a metal cable and should be        completed by a

qualified installer complying with NFPA Standard
No. 70 and local codes.

     g) Optional Plenum Fan Control Switch (Part No.

11PCS) is available for installation on the plenum of

central hot air heating furnace.  The purpose of this

switch is to activate the circulating fan of the central

hot air heating furnace when the temperature in the
plenum exceeds 120 degrees F.,  and  shut off the

fan when the temperature in the plenum is reduced

to 100 degrees F.  This avoids overheating the

plenum.

   The electrical supply for operation of this fan

control switch is to be obtained from the same
electrical supply as the central hot air heating  sys-

tem.  Follow the instructions of the wiring      diagram

(Fig. 11).  Do not make connections across the

thermodisc in the furnace.

       Make electrical wire connections in accordance

with NFPA Standard No. 70 and local codes in the
power supply junction box (See Fig. 13).  The wiring

to complete the connections should be 18 AWG

minimum copper and 90 degrees centigrade in a
cable.

     

     This is a furnace, not a free standing stove.

You must direct heated air from 8" outlets away from

the furnace, or it will not function properly.

1. This installation must be done by a qualified

heating equipment installer.

2.  The installation is to be done in compliance with

National Fire Protection Association installation

standards: No. 89M, 90B, 211, 70 (National       Elec-

trical Code) and Uniform Mechanical Code 913, 6-4,
in the states where applicable.  (Their code offers

connecting smoke pipe connectors into chimney

with other fuel burning appliances.)

3.  Rooms large in comparison with size of the

appliance:

     a) Wood or Coal Burning Furnace needs air for
combustion and circulation to house.

     b) Provision must be made to make up this air

and not starve gas or oil furnace of combustion air.

     c) Have "Authority Having Jurisdiction"         de-

termine that air is of adequate makeup.         (Refer-

ence N.F.P.A. Nos. 30&54, Code for        Installation
of Gas & Oil Equipment).

4.   Have "Authority Having Jurisdiction" is to inspect

all chimneys and installations for adequate venting

and for compliance with standard and local codes

and regulations regarding installation of wood  burn-

ing appliances.
5.   Installation for Supplemental Heat Application to

Existing Central System.  (See Fig. 2 for typical

installation.)

     a) Place Wood or Coal Burning Furnace so that

the chimney connector will be as short as practical

and avoiding unnecessary sharp turns in the smoke
pipe connector and the installation of devices that

would create excessive resistance to the flow of flue

gases.

     b) Locate the Wood or Coal Burning Furnace as

close as practical to the existing central hot air

heating system, maintaining clearances as stated
on the label on the fuel door.

    c) Clearance from combustible materials must

comply with those stated on the label on the fire

door:

Unit to combustible:

                       Front: 48"

                       Back: 30"

                       Sides: 12"

                       Plenum to Ceiling: 6"
