To relocate condensate trap from the blower shelf to desired
location, perform the following:
1. Remove 3 tubes connected to condensate trap.
2. Remove trap from blower shelf by gently pushing tabs
inward and rotating trap.
3. Install casing hole filler cap (factory-supplied in loose
parts bag) into blower shelf hole where trap was removed.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Casing hole filler cap must be installed in blower shelf hole
when condensate trap is relocated to prevent combustion
products being drawn in from appliances in the
equipment room.
!
WARNING
4. Install condensate trap into desired casing hole by
inserting tube connection stubs through casing hole and
rotating until tabs snap into locking position.
5. Fill unused condensate trap casing holes with plastic filler
caps (factory-supplied in loose parts bag).
CONDENSATE TRAP TUBING
NOTE
: See Fig. 10 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
check for proper connections.
1. Collector Box Drain Tube
a. Install drain tube coupling (factory-supplied in loose
parts bag) into collector box drain tube (blue label)
which was previously connected to condensate trap.
b. Connect large diameter drain tube and clamp
(factory-supplied in loose parts bag) to drain tube
coupling, extending collector box drain tube.
c. Route extended tube (blue label) to condensate trap
and cut to appropriate length.
d. Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
2. Inducer Housing Drain Tube
a. Remove and discard LOWER (molded) inducer
housing drain tube which was previously connected to
condensate trap.
b. Use inducer housing drain extension tube (violet label
and factory-supplied in loose parts bag) to connect
LOWER inducer housing drain connection to the
condensate trap.
c. Determine appropriate length, cut, and connect tube.
d. Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
3. Relief Port Tube
a. Extend collector box tube (green label) which was
previously connected to the condensate trap by
splicing to small diameter tube (factory-supplied in
loose parts bag).
b. Route extended collector box pressure tube to relief
port connection on the condensate trap.
c. Determine appropriate length, cut, and connect tube.
d. Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
CONDENSATE TRAP FIELD DRAIN ATTACHMENTS
Refer to Condensate Drain section for recommendations
and procedures.
PRESSURE SWITCH TUBING
The LOWER collector box pressure tube (pink label) is factory
connected to the pressure switch for use when furnace is installed
in UPFLOW applications. This tube MUST be disconnected,
extended, rerouted, and then reconnected to the pressure switch in
HORIZONTAL LEFT applications.
NOTE
: See Fig. 10 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
check for proper connections.
Modify tube as described below.
1. Disconnect collector box pressure tube (pink label)
attached to pressure switch.
2. Use smaller diameter tube (factory-supplied in loose parts
bag) to extend tube disconnected in item 1.
3. Route extended tube:
a. Behind inducer housing.
b. Between blower shelf and inducer housing.
c. Behind inducer motor bracket.
d. Between inducer motor and pressure switch.
4. Determine appropriate length, cut, and reconnect tube to
pressure switch connection labeled COLLECTOR BOX.
CONDENSATE TRAP FREEZE PROTECTION
Refer
to
Condensate
Drain
Protection
section
for
recommendations and procedures.
CONSTRUCT A WORKING PLATFORM
Construct working platform where all required furnace clearances
are met. (See Fig. 3 and 11 or 12.)
UNIT MAY NOT OPERATE
Failure to follow this caution may result in intermittent
unit operation.
The condensate trap MUST be installed below furnace. See
Fig. 5 for dimensions. The drain connection to condensate
trap must also be properly sloped to an open drain.
CAUTION
!
NOTE
:
Combustion-air and vent pipes are restricted to a
minimum length of 5 ft. (1.5 M) (See Table 11.)
NOTE
:
A 12-in. (305 mm) minimum offset pipe section is
recommended with short (5 to 8 ft (1.5 to 2.4 M)) vent systems.
This recommendation is to reduce excessive condensate droplets
from existing vent pipe. (See Fig. 11, 12 or 41.)
Step 5 -- Horizontal Right (Supply-Air Discharge)
Applications
A horizontal right furnace application is where furnace blower is
located to the left of combustion and controls section of furnace,
and conditioned air is discharged to the right.
MINOR PROPERTY DAMAGE
Failure to follow this caution may result in minor
property damage.
Local codes may require a drain pan under entire furnace and
condensate trap when a condensing furnace is used in attic
application or over a finished ceiling.
CAUTION
!
NOTE
: In Canada, installations shall be in accordance with
current NSCNGPIC Installation Codes and/or local codes.
NOTE
: The auxiliary junction box (J-Box) MUST be relocated
to opposite side of furnace casing. (See Fig. 13.) See Electrical
Connection section for J-Box relocation.
CONDENSATE TRAP LOCATION
The condensate trap must be removed from the factory-installed
blower shelf location and relocated in selected application
location as shown in Fig. 2 or 13.
