INSTALLATION
WARNING- FAILTURE TO INSTALL THE AMERICAS HEAT FURNACE
ACCORDING TO INSTRUCTIONS MAY VOID THE WARRANTY.
Install the Americas Heat furnace in a room with adequate air for combustion and ventilation - 60
cubic feet per minute minimum. Minimum clearances for the Americas Heat furnace is 32" from top of
furnace to ceiling, 30" from the front of the furnace to the wall, 6"on either side and 18" from the back of the
furnace to the wall.
The Americas Heat furnace is for use as a primary heat source. The Americas Heat
furnace should be installed with the metal hot air plenum connected to metal hot air duct work and metal
cold air return plenum joined to return air system.
This unit is not designed to be installed as an ad-on furnace. If you plan to use the Americas Heat furnace
in conjunction with another furnace, install safety measures to prevent air back feed from one furnace to the
other. Failure to take this precaution could cause either furnace to overheat.
**IMPORTANT** Maintain the 14" x 14" (196 sq. in.) hot air and return air
connections to your existing duct work. Reduction in size of these connections can restrict air movement
over and thru the heat exchanger, resulting in overheating and operational problems with the furnace.
Connect the Americas Heat furnace to a lined masonry chimney acceptable to the authority having
jurisdiction. USA installation may also use a residential type and building heating appliance chimney.
Canadian installation may also use a 6" (minimum) metal flue pipe using sheet metal screws. Do not
connect the furnace to any chimney flue servicing any other heating appliance, as recommended by the
Nation Fire Prevention Association. All chimney connections must meet the approval of the local building
inspector and fire marshall and conform to all local, state, provincial and national codes.
**IMPORTANT** The following procedure for measuring and setting the proper chimney draft is probably
the most important installation procedure to follow for the proper operation of the Americas Heat furnace.
The Americas Heat furnace requires .02- .04 in. water column draft (chimney draft) on low fire, to
assure proper operation. Low fire mode is when the thermostat is satisfied and fuel is not being augered
into the burner. When the chimney draft is too high, burner fire may go out. If the chimney draft is too low,
smoke may back up in the furnace and storage bin, causing a possible hazard.
The supplied barometric regulator should be installed in the flue (as per the enclosed instructions)
to properly regulate .02- .04 inc. water column draft. The counter weight setting on the barometric
regulator regulates this setting. (See "ADJUSTING THE CONTROL" instructions below.)
