UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
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 pipe (when applicable) and vent pipe(s)
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 exiting the vent pipe. (See Fig. 11, 12 or 43.)
LOCATION
Step 1 -- General
This furnace must
S
be installed so the electrical components are protected from water.
S
not be installed directly on any combustible material other than
wood flooring (refer to SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS).
S
be located so combustion-air and vent pipe maximum lengths
are not exceeded. Refer to Table 11.
S
be located where available electric power and gas supplies
meet specifications on the furnace rating plate.
S
be attached to an air distribution system and be located as close
to the center of the distribution system as possible. Refer to Air
Ducts section.
S
be provided with ample space for servicing and cleaning.
Always comply with minimum fire protection clearances
shown on the furnace clearance to combustibles label.
NOTE
: For upflow/downflow applications install furnace so that
it is level or pitched forward within 1/2-in. (13 mm) for proper
furnace operation. For horizontal applications pitch 1/4-in. (6
mm) minimum to 1/2-in. (13 mm) maximum forward to ensure
proper condensate drainage from secondary heat exchangers.
(See Fig. 14.)
When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air
circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space containing the
furnace, return air must also be handled by ducts sealed to
furnace casing. The ducts terminate outside the space containing
the furnace to ensure a negative pressure condition will not occur
within equipment room or space.
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in property damage,
personal injury, or death.
Do
not
install furnace on its back. (See Fig. 15.) Safety control
operation will be adversely affected. Never connect return-air
ducts to back of furnace.
