BEFORE THE CONVERSION

IMPORTANT: Please read all instructions before converting 

the furnace.

 Pay attention to all safety warnings and any other 

special notes highlighted in the manual. Safety markings are used 

frequently throughout this manual to designate a degree or level 

of seriousness and should not be ignored. 

WARNING

 indicates 

a potentially hazardous situation that if not avoided, could result 

in personal injury or death.
This conversion kit is only to be used to convert natural gas 

furnaces to LP/Propane gas and/or for high altitude applications 

in the United States. For installations in Canada, the Canadian 

conversion kit must be used.
Table 1 is a detailed listing of the components in this conversion 

kit. Please check the contents of the conversion kit with that of 

the parts listing, and familiarize yourself with each component.
Use caution when servicing or removing components from the 

appliance. Personal injury can occur from sharp metal edges 

present in all sheet metal constructed equipment.
To avoid nuisance tripping at altitudes between 7,500 to 10,000 

feet, a pressure switch conversion is required. See pressure 

switch settings in Table 3 (page 6) or Table 4 (page 7) for altitudes 

between 7,500 and 10,000 feet (in the US only).

NOTE:

 If furnace was produced before January 2010, the NOX 

baffles must be removed from the furnace before conversion.

 WARNING

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD

Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could 

result in serious injury or property damage.

– Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable 

vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any 

other appliance.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS

• Do not try to light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use 

any phone in your building.

• Leave the building immediately.

• Immediately call your gas supplier from a 

neighbors phone. Follow the gas suppliers 

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the 

fire department.

– Installation and service must be performed by 

a qualified installer, service agency or the gas 

supplier.

DO NOT DESTROY THIS MANUAL. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS

MANUAL AND KEEP IN A SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

 WARNING:

All gas piping must conform with local building 

codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the 

most recent edition of the National Fuel Gas Code 

ANSI Z223.1. DO NOT attempt to modify, or tap into 

existing gas lines yourself. Fire or explosion may 

result causing property damage, personal injury 

or loss of life. Failure to follow the safety warnings 

exactly could result in serious injury, death or 

property damage.

 WARNING:

All electrical wiring must comply with the latest 

edition of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 

70. Failure to follow these instructions could result 

in possible damage to equipment, serious personal 

injury, or death.

The installer performing this work assumes all responsibility for this conversion. 

These instructions are primarily intended to assist qualified individuals 

experienced in the proper installation of these components. Some local codes 

require licensed installation/service personnel for this type of equipment. Safety 

should always be the deciding factor when installing this product and using 

common sense plays an important role as well. Improper installation of the 

components or failure to follow safety warnings could result in serious injury, 

death, or property damage. After completing the installation, return these 

instructions to the Homeowner’s Package for owner-user’s future reference.
