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.
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.
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.
4. Install condensate trap into right-hand side 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. 13 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
check for proper connections.
1. Collector Box Drain Tube:
a. Remove factory-installed plug from LOWER collector box
drain tube (blue and white striped label).
b. Install removed clamp and plug into UPPER collector box
drain tube (blue label) which was previously connected to
condensate trap.
c. Connect LOWER collector box drain tube (blue and white
striped label) to condensate trap. Tube does not need to be
cut.
