Alternate Combustion Air Provision
(Upflow / Horizontal models only)
When using the alternate venting location, either in a hor
-
izontal left side down installation or a vertical installation
using down – venting, an alternate combustion air opening
can be used. A locating dimple is located on the right side of
the furnace cabinet. The locating dimple is 1 7/8” measured
from the front edge of the cabinet in line with the knock
out. To use the alternate combustion air location:
1. Remove screws and combustion air flange from
cabinet.
2. Insert cabinet plug in unused combustion air hole.
3. Drill a pilot hole at the cabinet dimple (size dictated
by knockout tool used).
4. Use a knockout tool to create a 3” diameter hole
5. Install combustion air flange and secure with screws
removed in step one.

CAUTION
Non-Direct Vent (Single Pipe) Piping
Non-direct
vent
installations require only a vent/flue pipe.
The vent pipe can be run horizontally with an exit through
the side of the building or run vertically with an exit through
the roof of the building. The vent can also be run through
an existing
unused
chimney; however, it must extend a min-
imum of 12 inches above the top of the chimney. The space
between the vent pipe and the chimney must be closed with a
weather-tight, corrosion-resistant flashing.
Although
non-direct
vent
installations do not require a
combustion air intake
pipe
, a minimum of one 90° elbow
should be attached to the furnace’s combustion air intake
if
: an upright installation uses the standard intake location,
or a horizontal installation uses the alternate air intake lo-
cation. This elbow will guard against inadvertent blockage
of the air intake.
