INSTALLING YOUR FURNACE
HELPFUL HINT
After wire nuts are screwed to wires, a small strip of
electrical tape can be applied over wire nut at its base and
onto wires to make a very solid connection.
GROUNDING
The appliance when installed must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances
or in their absence, with National Electrical Code (ANSI/
NFPA 70) or Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C22.1) if an
external electrical source is utilized. This appliance is
equipped with three-prong (grounding) plug for your
protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
A ground lug is installed for the ground connection. Use
a copper conductor (#AWG) from the unit to a grounded
connection in the electric service panel or a properly
driven and electrically grounded ground rod.
ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY
Remove three-prong (grounding) service cord from the
envelope parts package to be installed in the furnace.
Remove 7/8 inch diameter (22mm) knockout at the left or
right bottom side panel to route the three-prong service
cord to an electrical outlet.
1. Insert the nylon cap attached to the end of the three-
prong service cord thru the 7/8-inch diameter
knockout into the burner control assembly area and
insert it into the nylon plug attached to the outer
casing bottom. If desired, you may route the
thermostat wire alongside of the service cord and thru
the same opening or choose another entry into the
burner control assembly area.
2. Attach 7/8-inch diameter strain relief around the three-
prong service cord and thermostat wire (if thermostat
wire is routed thru the knockout). Insert the 7/8-inch
strain relief into the 7/8-inch hole in the side panel
of furnace.

could cause damage to the electrical cord resulting in
electrical shock hazard and/or fire.
A branch circuit including this furnace must not exceed 15
Amperes. Run a separate 115V, 60Hz. 15 Ampere circuit from
a separate circuit breaker or fuse in your service panel.
