Common sources of chlorine and fluorine compounds
include indoor swimming pools and chlorine bleaches,
paint strippers, adhesives, paints, varnishes, sealers,
waxes (which are not yet dried) and solvents used during
construction and remodeling. Various commercial and
industrial processes may also be sources of chlorine/
fluorine compounds.
• Heavier gauge 300 and 400 series stainless steel liners
were developed for use with oil or solid fuel appliances.
They are not suitable for use with gas-fired appliances.
Flexible liners specifically intended and tested for gas
applications are listed in the UL “Gas and Oil Equipment
Directory”. (UL Standard 1777).
For sizing of flexible liners, see Note 22 and the tables in the
National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition and
in the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/
CSA B149.2 - latest editions and amendments.
To install the liner, read and follow the liner manufacturer ’s
instructions and your local codes. Excess liner length should be
pulled out of the chimney and cut off. Use caution when doing this,
as the cut edges of flexible liners may be sharp. Do not spiral
excess liner inside of the chimney. Support the liner as
recommended by the liner manufacturer.
Some manufacturers of flexible liners offer an insulation sleeve
designed to be added to the liner before it is installed in the
chimney. (Poured insulation, either vermiculite or other materials,
is no longer recommended.) Insulation will need to be added to
the flexible liner if:
• It is required by the liner manufacturer’s instructions.
• The previous liner was properly sized and installed, and
suffered from condensation damage.
• It is required by your local building codes.
Even if none of those three conditions exist which require additional
liner insulation, the installer may wish to consider it if:
• The local climate is very cold.
• The chimney is very tall.
• The vent connectors used are very long or have a large
number of elbows.
• Local experience indicates that flexible liners installed
without insulation are likely to have condensation problems.
Insulation must be selected and installed in accordance with the
liner manufacturer’s instructions.
Finally, cap the chimney and terminate the liner in accordance
with the liner manufacturer’s instructions.

The wiring harness is an integral part of this furnace. Field
alteration to comply with electrical codes should not be required.
Wires are color coded for identification purposes. Refer to the
wiring diagram for wire routings. If any of the original wire as
supplied with the furnace must be replaced, it must be replaced
with wiring material having a temperature rating of at least 105° C.
Any replacement wiring must be a copper conductor.

ONNECTIONS
Before proceeding with electrical connections, ensure that the
supply voltage, frequency, and phase correspond to that specified
on the unit rating plate. Power supply to the furnace must be NEC
Class 1, and must comply with all applicable codes. The furnace
must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or,
in their absence, with the latest edition of The National Electric
Code, ANSI NFPA 70 and/or The Canadian Electric Code CSA
C22.1.
Use a separate fused branch electrical circuit containing properly
sized wire, and fuse or circuit breaker. The fuse or circuit breaker
must be sized in accordance with the maximum overcurrent
protection specified on the unit rating plate. An electrical disconnect
must be provided at the furnace location.
Line voltage wiring
must enter into the junction box provided with
the furnace.
NOTE:
Line polarity must be observed when making field
connections.
