If the furnace is to be installed in an attic, it is required that
a drip pan be placed under the furnace. If the installation
is on a combustible platform (Figure 6), it is recommended
that the drip pan extend at least 12 inches past the top
and front of the furnace.
If the furnace will be suspended from the ceiling, assemble
a support frame (Figure 7) using slotted iron channel and
full threaded rod. Fasten the frame together with nuts,
washers, and lockwashers. Secure the support frame to the
rafters with lag bolts. The furnace can also be suspended
using steel straps around each end of the furnace. The
straps should be attached to the furnace with sheet metal
screws and to the rafters with bolts.
It is recommended for further reduction of fi re hazard
that cement board or sheet metal be placed between the
furnace and the combustible fl oor and extend 12 inches
beyond the front of the door and top of the furnace.

Downfl ow Installation
WARNING:
The furnace must not be installed directly on
carpeting, tile, or any combustible material other
than wood fl ooring.
WARNING:
Failure to install the downfl ow sub-base kit
may result in fi re, property damage or personal
injury.
To install the furnace on combustible fl ooring, a special
sub-base is required. Downfl ow sub-base kits are factory
supplied accessories and are listed according to the cabinet
letter of the furnace. For ‘A’ size cabinets use Sub-Base
kit #902974 only. For ‘B’, ‘C’, and ‘D’ size cabinets use
Kit #904911.
Please follow the instructions provided
with the kit
.
WARNING:
The downfl ow sub-base kit must not be installed
directly on carpeting, tile, or any combustible
material other than wood fl ooring.
A downfl ow sub-base kit is not necessary if the furnace
is installed on a factory or site-built cased air conditioning
coil. However, the plenum attached to the coil casing
must be installed so that its surfaces are at least 1” from
combustible construction.
Installation on a concrete slab.
1. Create an opening in the fl oor according to the
dimensions in Figure 8.
2. Position the plenum and the furnace as shown in
Figure 9 (page 14).
