WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service

be performed by a qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier.
CAUTION
As with any mechanical equipment, personal injury
can result from contact with sharp sheet metal
edges. Be careful when you handle this equipment.
Installation - Setting Equipment
Select a location that allows for required clearances
listed on the unit rating plate. Also consider gas supply
connections, electrical supply, vent connection and
installation and service clearances [24 inches (610 mm)
at unit front]. The furnace must be level.
NOTE - 1/3 and 1/2 hp blower motors are equipped with eiĆ
ther four flexible mounting legs or three flexible legs and
one rigid leg. The rigid leg is equipped with a shipping bolt
and a flat white plastic washer (rather than the rubber
mounting grommet used with a flexible mounting leg). This
shipping bolt and flat washer must be removed before the
furnace is put into operation. Once the shipping bolt and
washer are removed, the rigid leg will not touch the blower
housing.
CAUTION
G26 unit should not be installed in areas normally
subject to freezing temperatures.
Return Air Opening Guidelines
WARNING
Blower door must be securely in place when blower
and burners are operating. Gas fumes, which could
contain carbon monoxide, can be drawn into living
space resulting in personal injury or death.
WARNING
Improper installation of unit can result in personal inĆ
jury or death. Combustion and flue products must
never be allowed to enter the return air system or air
in the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint
tape to seal return air system to furnace.
In platform installations with furnace return, the furĆ
nace should be sealed airtight to the return air pleĆ
num. A door must never be used as a portion of the
return air duct system. The base must provide a
stable support and an airtight seal to the furnace. AlĆ
low absolutely no sagging, cracks, gaps, etc.
For no reason should return and supply air duct sysĆ
tems ever be connected to or from other heat-ing deĆ
vices such as a fireplace or stove, etc. Fire, exploĆ
sion, carbon monoxide poisoning, personal injury
and/or property damage could result.
Return air can be brought in either side or at the bottom of
the unit. Scribe lines show the outline of each side and the
bottom return air opening.
Bottom Return Air Applications
If cold air return is to terminate through the floor under the
furnace, a direct, airtight and sealed connection must be
made to the bottom of the furnace.
1 - Cut opening in floor or platform. Using knockouts proĆ
vided, cut bottom of base panel. See figure 2.
