• Furnace is not connected to

return air duct and is drawing

dirt from furnace room floor and

disbursing it throughout home.

• Connect to return air duct system.

• Install filter box on furnace. Install filter in filter box.

• Filter box not installed, or no filter

in filter box.

5.

Problem: Smoke from the fire chamber is puffing back through the forced draft motor.

• Furnace is not connected to

return air and is drawing smoke

fumes from the flue.

• Connect to return air duct system. Or room may be too airtight, refer

to “Location and Installation” section on page 3.

Possible Causes:

Remedies:

• Excessively long run of stove

pipe from furnace to flue.

• Relocate the furnace so the horizontal run does not exceed 5 feet

and has a 2 inch rise per foot.

• The run should not contain more than 2 elbows.

• Replace with a larger flue providing a minimum of 50 square

inches but not more than 100 square inches of draft area. If the

flue is within  these specifications, check the draft with a draft gage

(manometer). Your flue should provide a minimum of .04 water

column inches and a maximum of .08 water column inches.

• Too many elbows.

• Insufficient flue size.

setting that is higher than the temperature in your home. If the draft

 

blower does not operate, the thermostat may be defective. Replace

 

if necessary.

• Replace relay.

• Replace draft motor.
