Setup

For proper system operation, the airflow through the indoor 

coil should be between 350 – 450 CFM per ton of cooling 

capacity.  Each  electric  furnace  is  shipped  configured 

to  provide  the  correct  airflow  for  the  maximum  tonnage 

outdoor  unit.  If  the  electric  furnace  is  to  be  used  with 

smaller tonnage outdoor equipment, the variable speed 

motor  must  be  configured  for  that  application  by  field 

changing the motor control board (refer to Table 2. Variable 

Speed Motor Application).

The  cooling  blower  speed  must  be  set  to  provide  a 

minimum of 350 CFM airflow per ton (12,000 Btuh) of 

outdoor cooling capacity.

 IMPORTANT

Variable Speed Motor

Locate the motor control board in the blower control box. 

Set the HEAT and COOL CFM taps by moving the board 

jumpers to the A, B, C, or D positions (see Figure 2) based 

on the information found in Table 2. Variable Speed Motor 

Application. The ADJUST tap on the control board can be 

used to raise or lower the table CFMs. The (+) tap will raise 

the table CFM by 10%, and the (–) tap will lower the table 

CFM by 12%. 

NOTE: 

IMPORTANT: When changing the control taps, the 

high voltage must be off in order for the new settings to 

take effect.

Figure 2. Motor Board Taps and Dehumidify Resistor

This model is designed for use with heat pumps as 

well as air conditioning systems. The motor control 

board needs to sense a signal on the “O” thermostat 

wire in order to use cooling delay timing. For a straight 

air conditioning system, connect the “O” wire to the 24 

volt “R” wire.

The  motor  control  board  that  provides  airflow  selection 

also features LED indicators that display operating mode, 

humidity control, and airflow CFM. In addition, thermostat 

signals for emergency heat (EM), aux. heat (W1), reversing 

valve (O), compressor stage 1 (Y1), compressor stage 2 

(Y2), and blower (G) are all indicated by lit LED’s on this 

board. If a humidistat is used, the dehumidify LED will light 

when the humidistat opens and the motor runs at reduced 

airflow.  The  control  board  also  has  a  CFM  LED  that 

displays  the  operating  CFM. This  red  LED  flashes  once 

for each 100 CFM. For example: if the operating CFM is 

1200, the CFM LED will flash 12 times, then pause before 

repeating the 12-flash pattern.

Special note for units equipped with a humidistat:

 If 

using a humidistat, the dehumidify resistor located on the 

bottom right of the control board must be removed (see 

Figure 2).

The HUM terminal on the board must be connected to 

the Normally Closed contact of the humidistat so that the 

board senses an open circuit on high humidity.

Application Table

The versatility of the variable speed motor enables the 

performance of the EFV electric furnace to be tailored to the 

different modes of operation encountered in heating and 

cooling. All EFV electric furnaces are capable of operation 

at  more  than  one  nominal  airflow  rate. The  operation  of 

an EFV 

blower at different airflow rates is determined by 

the control board taps and the thermostat (see Table 2. 

Variable Speed Motor Application). Before beginning the 

setup, become familiar with the information found in this 

table.

The data in the application table is categorized by unit size 

and mode of operation. Use the information provided to 

determine the CFM taps needed for cooling and heating.
