REQUIREMENTS & CODES
• This furnace must be installed in accordance with
these instructions, all applicable local building codes
and the current revision of the National Fuel Gas Code
(NFPA54/ANSI Z223.1) or the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CAN/CSA B149.1.
• Use only with type of gas approved for this furnace.
Refer to the furnace rating plate.
• Install this furnace in accordance to the minimum
clearances to combustible materials listed in Table 1,
(page 6) .
• Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to the
furnace space as specified on page 7 . Do not block
or obstruct air openings on the furnace, air openings
to the area where the furnace is installed, or the space
around the furnace.
• Combustion products must be discharged outdoors.
Connect this furnace to an approved vent system, as
specified on page 10 .
• Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use
a commercially available soap solution to check all
connections. See page 17 .
• This furnace is designed to operate with a maximum
external pressure rise of 0.3 inches of water column.
NOTE 1: The static pressure measurement should not
include the coil (if applicable). Consult the rating plate
for the proper circulating air flow and temperature rise.
NOTE 2:
It is important that the duct system be designed
to handle the desired flow rate and external pressure
rise. An improperly designed duct system can result in
nuisance shutdowns, and comfort or noise issues.
• When supply ducts carry air circulated by the furnace
to areas outside the space containing the furnace, the
return air shall also be handled through the front door
of the furnace. Make sure there is sufficient return air
through the door. See return air connections page 7 .

• Be powered by the same electrical circuit as the
appliance or equipment. Only one service switch shall
power the appliance and the (CO) detector;
• Have battery back-up power;
• Meet ANSI/UL 2034 Standards and comply with
NFPA 720 (2005 Edition); and Approved and listed
by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory as
recognized under 527 CMR.
c.) A Product-approved vent terminal must be used, and
if applicable, a product-approved air intake must be
used. Installation shall be in strict compliance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. A copy of the installation
instructions shall remain with the appliance or
equipment at the completion of the installation.
