LOW VOLTAGE CONTROL WIRING CONNECTIONS
Install the field-supplied thermostat by following the instructions that
come with the thermostat. With the thermostat set in the OFF position
and the main electrical source disconnected, connect the thermostat
wiring from the wiring connections on the thermostat to the terminal
board on the ignition module, as shown in Figure 7 or 8. Electronic ther-
mostats may require the common wire to be connected as shown with
the dashed line in Figure 7 or 8. Apply strain relief to thermostat wires
passing through cabinet. If air conditioning equipment is installed, use
thermostat wiring to connect the Y and C terminals on the furnace con-
trol board to the proper wires on the condensing unit (unit outside).
Refer to Figure 7. For two-stage condensing units, connect the Y1, Y/
Y2 and C terminals on the furnace control to the proper wires on the
outside unit. See Figure 8.
IMPORTANT:
Set the heat anticipator in the room thermostat to 0.45
amps. Setting it lower will cause short cycles. Setting it higher will cause
the room temperature to exceed the set points.
IMPORTANT:
Some electronic thermostats do not have adjustable heat
anticipators. They may have other type cycle rate adjustments. Follow
the thermostat manufacturer's instructions.
The 24-volt, 40 VA transformer is sized for the furnace components
only, and should not be connected to power auxiliary devices such as
humidifiers, air cleaners, etc. The transformer may provide power for an
air conditioning unit contactor.
ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS
The furnace control will allow power-switching control of various acces-
sories. Refer to Figure 9, for connection details.
ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER CONNECTION
Two 1/4” (6.4 mm) spade terminals (EAC and NEUTRAL) for electronic
air cleaner connections are located on the control board. The terminals
provide 115 VAC (1.0 amp maximum) during circulating blower opera-
tion.
HUMIDIFIER CONNECTION
Two 1/4” (6.4 mm) spade terminals (HUM and NEUTRAL) for humidifier
connections are located on the control board. The terminals provide 115
VAC (1.0 amp maximum) during heating system operation.
SECTION VI: TWINNING AND STAGING
NOTE:
You can twin two furnaces that have the same integrated control
module. Check the part number on the integrated control mod-
ule. You
cannot twin
two furnaces that have different integrated
control module part numbers. If the part numbers of the two inte-
grated control modules are different they may not communicate
with each other so they will not work in a twinning application.
In applications where more heating capacity or more airflow capacity is
needed than what one furnace can deliver, twinning can be used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem. When two furnaces are installed
using the same duct system, it is very important that the two furnace cir-
culating air blowers operate in unison. If one blower starts before the
second blower, the duct system will become pressurized and the blower
on the second furnace will turn backwards causing the second furnace
to overheat, resulting in damage to the furnace. Twinning is used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem, using one duct system, one
room thermostat and causing both furnaces to turn on and off simulta-
neously.
TWINNING DUCT SYSTEM
Twinned furnaces must only be applied on a common duct system. A
single air supply plenum must be used for both furnaces and coil(s).
Separate plenums and supply ducts systems cannot be utilized. A sin-
gle return air plenum, common to both furnaces must be used. It is sug-
gested that a return platform be utilized, with bottom air entrance into
each furnace. If a side entrance returns system is used, the common
return duct must be divided equally so as to supply each furnace with
an equal amount of return air.
Both furnaces must be identical models in both heating capacity and
CFM capacity. Both furnaces must be operated on the same motor
speed tap. See typical application, Figure 10.
If furnace staging is desired with two single stage furnaces on a com-
mon duct, where the gas burner on the first furnace operates on W1
and the gas burner on the second furnace operates on W2, then the
use of an air-mixing device in the plenum to mix the air from both fur-
naces is strongly recommended. The mixing device must be installed
before any ducts that supply air to occupied spaces. Twinning causes
both indoor fans to operate simultaneously. If a mixing device is not
used, any ducts that are connected down stream from the furnace that
operates on W2, will be supplying cold air in the Heating mode to the
occupied spaces unless W2 is energized.
IMPORTANT:
When two furnaces are twinned, typical system total air-
flow will be approximately 85% of additive individual furnaces, i.e., two
2000 CFM units will yield a total 3400 CFM.

Before installing the relay and wiring, disconnect electrical power to
both furnaces. Failure to cut power could result in electrical shock
or equipment damage.
The relay must not be installed in any location where it could be
exposed to water. If the relay has been exposed to water in any
way, it must not be used.
