MINIMUM TO BURNERS
A93044
Fig. 6–Location to Burners
CAUTION: Air for combustion must not be contami-
nated by halogen compounds, which include fluoride,
chloride, bromide, and iodide. These elements are found
in aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents,
salts, air fresheners, and other household products.
All fuel-burning equipment must be supplied with air for fuel
combustion. Sufficient air must be provided to avoid negative
pressure in the equipment room or space. A positive seal must be
made between the furnace cabinet and the return-air duct to
prevent pulling air from the burner area and from blocked vent
safeguard opening.
CAUTION: The operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation fans, clothes dryers, or fireplaces could create a
NEGATIVE PRESSURE CONDITION at the furnace.
Make-up air MUST be provided for the ventilation
devices, in addition to that required by the furnace.
The requirements for combustion and ventilation air depend upon
whether the furnace is located in an unconfined or confined space.
I. UNCONFINED SPACE
An unconfined space has a volume of at least 50 cu ft for each
1000 Btuh total input for all appliances (furnaces, clothes dryers,
water heaters, etc.) in the space.
For example:
TABLE 1–312AAV FLOOR AREA
312AAV FURNACE
INPUT (BTUH)
88,000587
MINIMUM WITH
7–1/2 FT CEILING (SQ. FT.)
If the unconfined space is constructed unusually tight, air for
combustion and ventilation must come from either the outdoors or
spaces freely communicating with the outdoors. Combustion and
ventilation openings must be equivalent to those used for a
confined space (defined below). Return air must not be taken from
the room unless an equal or greater amount of air is supplied to the
room.
II. CONFINED SPACE
A confined space has a volume less than 50 cu ft per 1000 Btuh
of total input ratings of all appliances installed in that space. A
confined space must have provisions for supplying air for combustion, ventilation, and dilution of flue gases using 1 of the
following methods in Table 2 and Fig. 7and 8.
NOTE: When determining the free area of an opening, the
blocking effect of louvers, grilles, and screens must be considered.
If the free area of the louver or grille design is unknown, assume
wood louvers have a 20 percent free area and metal louvers or
grilles have a 60 percent free area. Screens must not be smaller
than 1/4-in. mesh. Louvers and grilles must be constructed so they
cannot be closed.
The opening size depends upon whether air comes from outside of
the structure or an unconfined space inside the structure.
1. Air from inside the structure requires 2 openings (for
structures not of unusually tight construction):
a. Each opening must have a minimum free area of not less
than 1 sq in per 1000 Btuh of total input rating for all gas
utilization equipment in the confined space, but not less
than 100 sq in. The minimum dimension of air openings
should be no smaller than 3 in. (See Table 2 and Fig. 7
and 8).
b. If building construction is unusually tight, a permanent
opening directly communicating with the outdoors shall
be provided. (See next section).
c. If the furnace is installed on a raised platform to provide
a return-air plenum, and return air is taken directly from
the hallway or space adjacent to furnace, all air for
combustion must come from outdoors.
2. Air from outside the structure requires 1 of the following:
a. If combustion air is taken from outdoors through 2
vertical ducts, the openings and ducts must have at least
1 sq in. of free area per 4000 Btuh of total input for all
equipment within the confined space. (See Fig. 8 and
Table 2.)
b. If combustion air is taken from outdoors through 2
horizontal ducts, the openings and ducts must have at
least 1 sq in. of free area per 2000 Btuh of total input for
all equipment within the confined space. (See Fig. 8 and
Table 2.)
c. If combustion air is taken from the outdoors through a
single opening or duct (horizontal or vertical) commencing within 12 in. of the top of the confined space, the
opening and duct must have at least 1 sq in. of free area

See Table 2 and Fig. 8.
When ducts are used, they must be of the same cross sectional area
as the free area of the openings to which they connect. The
minimum dimension of ducts must not be less than 3 in.
III. AIR DUCTS
A. General Requirements
The duct system should be designed and sized according to
accepted national standards such as those published by: Air
Conditioning Contractors Association (ACCA), Sheet Metal and
Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA) or
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE). Or consult The Air Systems Design Guide-lines reference tables available from your local distributor. The
duct system should be sized to handle the required system design
CFM at the design external static pressure.
When a furnace is installed so that the supply ducts carry air to
areas outside the space containing the furnace, the return air must
also be handled by a duct(s) sealed to the furnace casing and
terminating outside the space containing the furnace.
Secure ductwork with proper fasteners for type of ductwork used.
Seal supply- and return-duct connections to furnace with code
approved tape or duct sealer.

Piping should be pressure tested in accordance with local and
national plumbing and gas codes before the furnace has been
attached. If the pressure exceeds 0.5 psig (14-in. wc), the gas
supply pipe must be disconnected from the furnace and capped
before the pressure test. If the test pressure is equal to or less than
0.5 psig (14-in. wc), turn off electric shutoff switch located on the
gas valve before the test. It is recommended that the ground joint
union be loosened before pressure testing.
After all connections have been made, purge the lines and check
for gas leakage with regulated gas supply pressure.
An accessible manual shutoff valve MUST be installed upstream
of furnace gas controls and within 6 ft of furnace. A 1/8-in. NPT
plugged tapping, accessible for test gage connection, MUST be
installed immediately upstream of gas supply connection to
furnace and downstream of manual shutoff valve.
NOTE: The gas valve inlet pressure tap connection is suitable to
use as test gage connection providing test pressure DOES NOT
exceed maximum 0.5 psig (14-in. wc) stated on gas valve. (See

START-UP, ADJUSTMENT, AND SAFETY CHECK
I. GENERAL
NOTE: Proper polarity must be maintained for 115-v wiring. If
polarity is incorrect, control status indicator light will flash rapidly
and furnace will not operate.
The furnace must have a 115-v power supply properly connected
and grounded. Proper polarity must be maintained for correct
operation. Thermostat wire connections at R, W, C, and Y must be
made at the 24-v terminal block on the furnace control. The gas
service pressure must not exceed 0.5 psig (14-in. wc), but must be
no less than 0.16 psig (4.5-in. wc).
CAUTION: This furnace is equipped with manual reset
limit switches in the gas control area. The switches open
and shut off power to the gas valve, if a flame rollout or
overheating condition occurs in the gas control area. DO
NOT bypass the switches. Correct inadequate combustion
air supply problem and reset the switches.
Before operating furnace, check each manual-reset switch for
continuity.
The blower compartment door must be in place to complete the
115–v circuit to the furnace.
II. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
CAUTION: Furnace control must be grounded for
proper operation or control will lockout. Control is
grounded through green wire rotated to gas valve and
burner bracket screw.
Using the schematic diagram in Fig. 23, follow the sequence of
operation through the different modes. Read and follow the wiring
diagram very carefully.
NOTE: If a power interruption occurs during a call for heat
(W/W1 or W/W1-and-W2), the control will start a 90-second
blower-only ON period two seconds after power is restored, if the
thermostat is still calling for gas heating. The green LED light will
flash code 12 during the 90-second period, after which the LED
will be ON continuous, as long as no faults are detected. After the
90-second period, the furnace will respond to the thermostat
normally.
The blower door must be installed for power to be conducted
through the blower door interlock switch ILK to the furnace
control CPU, transformer TRAN, inducer motor IDM, blower
motor BLWM, hot-surface igniter HSI, and gas valve GV.
1. Two-Stage Heating (Adaptive mode) with Single-Stage
Thermostat
(See Fig. 21 for thermostat connections)
This furnace can operate as a two-stage furnace with a
single-stage thermostat because the furnace control CPU
includes a programmed adaptive sequence of controlled
operation, which selects low-heat or high-heat operation.
This selection is based upon the stored history of the length
of previous gas-heating periods of the single-stage thermostat.
The furnace will start up in either low- or high-heat. If the
furnace starts up in low-heat, the control CPU determines
the low-heat on-time (from 0 to 16 minutes) which is
permitted before switching to high-heat.
If the power is interrupted, the stored history is erased and
the control CPU will initially select low-heat for up to 16
minutes and then switch to high-heat, as long as the
thermostat continues to call for heat. Subsequent selection
is based on stored history of the thermostat cycle times.
The wall thermostat ″calls for heat″, closing the R to W
circuit. The furnace control performs a self-check, verifies

NOTE: The low-heat only switch LHT selects either the low-heat
only operation mode when ON, (see item 2. below) or the adaptive
heating mode when OFF in response to a call for heat. (See Fig.
22.) Table 7 and 8show the dipswitch setup information. When the
W2 thermostat terminal is energized it will always cause high-heat
operation when the R-to-W circuit is closed, regardless of the
setting of the low-heat only switch.

inducer motor IDM switches to low-speed, and the
furnace control CPU begins a 15-second prepurge period. If the low-heat pressure switch LPS fails to remain
closed the inducer motor IDM will switch back to
high-speed. After the low-heat pressure switch re-closes
the furnace control CPU will begin a 15-second prepurge
period, and continue to run the inducer motor IDM at
high-speed for the low-heat cycle while flashing status
code 32.
If the furnace control CPU selects high-heat operation,
the inducer motor IDM remains running at high-speed,
and the high-heat pressure switch relay HPSR is deenergized to close the NC contact. When sufficient
pressure is available the high-heat pressure switch HPS
closes, and the high-heat gas valve solenoid GV-HI is
energized. The furnace control CPU begins a 15-second
prepurge period after the low-heat pressure switch LPS
closes. If the high-heat pressure switch HPS fails to close
and the low-heat pressure switch LPS closes, the furnace
will operate at low-heat gas flow rate until the high-heat
pressure switch closes for a maximum of 2 minutes after
ignition, after which a normal shutdown occurs and the
furnace reinstates the heating startup sequence.

b. Igniter Warm-Up- At the end of the prepurge period,
the Hot-Surface Igniter HSI is energized for a 17-second
igniter warm-up period.
c. Trial-for-IgnitionSequence-Whentheigniter
warm-up period is completed the main gas valve relay
contacts GVR-1 and -2 close to energize the gas valve
solenoid GV-M, the gas valve opens, and 24 vac power
is supplied for a field-installed humidifier at the HUM
terminal. The gas valve solenoid GV-M permits gas flow
to the burners where it is ignited. After 5 seconds, the
igniter HSI is de-energized and a 2-second FlameProving period begins.
If the furnace control CPU selects high-heat operation,
the high-heat gas valve solenoid GV-HI is also energized.
d. Flame-Proving- When the burner flame is proved at the
flame-proving sensor electrode FSE, the furnace control
CPU begins the blower-ON delay period and continues
to hold the gas valve GV-M open. If the burner flame is
not proved within two seconds, the control CPU will
close the gas valve GV-M, and the control CPU will
repeat the ignition sequence for up to three more
Trials-For-Ignition before going to Ignition-Lockout.
Lockout will be reset automatically after three hours, by
momentarily interrupting 115 vac power to the furnace,
or by interrupting 24 vac power at SEC1 or SEC2 to the
furnace control CPU (not at W/W1, G, R, etc.).
If flame is proved when flame should not be present, the
furnace control CPU will lock out of Gas-Heating mode
and operate the inducer motor IDM on high speed until
flame is no longer proved.
If flame is proved when flame should not be present, the
furnace control CPU will lock out of Gas-Heating mode
and operate the inducer motor IDM until flame is no
longer proved.

blower motor BLWM is energized.
f. Switching from Low-to High-Heat-If the furnace con-
trol CPU switches from low-heat to high-heat, the
furnace control CPU will switch the inducer motor IDM
speed from low to high. The high-heat pressure switch
relay HPSR is de-energized to close the NC contact.
When sufficient pressure is available the high-heat pressure switch HPS closes, and the high-heat gas valve
solenoid GV-HI is energized. The blower motor BLWM
will switch to HI HEAT speed five seconds after the
furnace control CPU switches from low-heat to highheat.
g. Switching from High- to Low-Heat-The furnace con-
trol CPU will not switch from high-heat to low-heat
while the thermostat R-to-W circuit is closed when using
a single-stage thermostat.
h. Blower-OFF Delay- When the thermostat is satisfied,
the R-to-W circuit is opened, de-energizing the gas valve
GV-M, stopping gas flow to the burners, and deenergizing the humidifier terminal HUM. The inducer
motor IDM will remain energized for a 5-second postpurge period. The blower motor BLWM and air cleaner
terminal EAC-1 will remain energized for 90, 120, 150,
or 180 seconds (depending on selection at blower-OFF
delay switches). The furnace control CPU is factory-set
for a 120-second blower-OFF delay.

LPS and HPS are open, and starts the inducer motor IDM in
high-speed.
The start up and shut down functions and delays described
in item 1. above apply to the 2-stage heating mode as well,
except for switching from low- to high-Heat and vice versa.
NOTE: In this mode the low-heat-only switch LHT must be ON
to select the low-heat only operation mode in response to closing
the thermostat R-to-W1 circuit. Closing the thermostat R-to-W1and-W2 circuits always causes high-heat operation, regardless of
the setting of the low-heat-only switch.
a. Switching from Low- to High-Heat-If the thermostat
R-to-W1 circuit is closed and the R-to-W2 circuit closes,
the furnace control CPU will switch the inducer motor
IDM speed from low to high. The high-heat pressure
switch relay HPSR is de-energized to close the NC
contact. When sufficient pressure is available the highheat pressure switch HPS closes, and the high-heat gas
valve solenoid GV-HI is energized. The blower motor
BLWM will switch to HI-HEAT speed five seconds after
the R-to-W2 circuit closes.
b. Switching from High- to Low-Heat - If the thermostat
R-to-W2 circuit opens, and the R-to-W1 circuit remains
closed, the furnace control CPU will switch the inducer
motor IDM speed from high to low. The high-heat
pressure switch relay HPSR is energized to open the NC
contact and de-energize the high-heat gas valve solenoid
GV-HI. When the inducer motor IDM reduces pressure
sufficiently, the high-heat pressure switch HPS will
open. The gas valve solenoid GV-M will remain energized as long as the low-heat pressure switch LPS
remains closed. The blower motor BLWM will switch to
LO-HEAT speed five seconds after the R-to-W2 circuit
opens.
3. Cooling Mode
The thermostat “calls for cooling.”
a. Single-Speed Cooling- (See Fig. 21 for thermostat
connections)
The thermostat closes the R-to-G-and-Y circuits. The
R-to-Y circuit starts the outdoor unit, and the R-to-Gand-Y/Y2 circuits start the furnace blower motor BLWM
on COOL speed.
The electronic air cleaner terminal EAC-1 is energized
with 115 vac when the blower motor BLWM is operating.
When the thermostat is satisfied, the R-to-G-and-Y
circuits are opened. The outdoor unit will stop, and the
furnace blower motor BLWM will continue operating on
the COOL speed for an additional 90 seconds. Jumper
Y/Y2 to DHUM to reduce the cooling off-delay to 5
seconds. (See Fig. 22.)
NOTE: The air conditioning relay disable jumper ACRDJ must
be connected to enable the adaptive cooling mode in response to a
call for cooling. (See Fig. 22.) When in place the furnace control
CPU can turn on the air conditioning relay ACR to energize the
Y/Y2 terminal and switch the outdoor unit to high-cooling.
b. Single-Stage Thermostat and Two-Speed Cooling
(Adaptive Mode)-(See Fig. 31 for thermostat connections)
This furnace can operate a two-speed cooling unit with a
single-stage thermostat because the furnace control CPU
includes a programmed adaptive sequence of controlled
operation, which selects low-cooling or high-cooling
operation. This selection is based upon the stored history
of the length of previous cooling periods of the singlestage thermostat.
The furnace control CPU can start up the cooling unit in
either low- or high-cooling. If starting up in low-cooling,
the furnace control CPU determines the low-cooling
on-time (from 0 to 20 minutes) which is permitted before
switching to high-cooling.
If the power is interrupted, the stored history is erased
and the furnace control CPU will initially select lowcooling for up to 20 minutes and then energize the air
conditioning relay ACR to energize the Y/Y2 terminal
and switch the outdoor unit to high-cooling, as long as
the thermostat continues to call for cooling. Subsequent
selection is based on stored history of the thermostat
cycle times.
The wall thermostat ″calls for cooling″, closing the
R-to-G-and-Y circuits. The R-to-Y1 circuit starts the
outdoor unit on low-cooling speed, and the R-to-Gand-Y1 circuits starts the furnace blower motor BLWM
at low-cool speed (same speed as LO-HEAT).
If the furnace control CPU switches from low-cooling to
high-cooling, the furnace control CPU will energize the
air conditioning relay ACR. When the air conditioning
relay ACR is energized the R-to-Y1-and-Y2 circuits
switch the outdoor unit to high-cooling speed, and the
R-to-G-and-Y1-and-Y/Y2 circuits switch the furnace
blower motor BLWM to COOL speed.
The electronic air cleaner terminal EAC-1 is energized
with 115 vac whenever the blower motor BLWM is
operating.
When the thermostat is satisfied, the R-to-G-and-Y
circuit are opened. The outdoor unit stops, and the
furnace blower BLWM and electronic air cleaner terminal EAC-1 will remain energized for an additional 90
seconds. Jumper Y1 to DHUM to reduce the cooling
off-delay to 5 seconds. (See Fig. 22.)
NOTE: When transitioning from low-cooling to high-cooling the
outdoor unit compressor will shut down for 1 minute while the
furnace blower motor BLWM continues to run at low-cool speed
(same speed as LO-HEAT) until the outdoor unit compressor
comes back on at high speed.

the cooling off-delay to 5 seconds. (See Fig. 22.)
NOTE: The air conditioning relay disable jumper ACRDJ must
be disconnected to allow thermostat control of the outdoor unit

4. Thermidistat Mode
(See Fig. 24, 25, 26, and 27 for Thermidistat connections)
The dehumidification output, DHUM on the Thermidistat
should be connected to the furnace control thermostat
terminal DHUM. When there is a dehumidify demand, the
DHUM input is activated, which means 24 vac signal is
removed from the DHUM input terminal. In other words,
the DHUM input logic is reversed. The DHUM input is
turned ON when no dehumidify demand exists. Once 24
vac is detected by the furnace control on the DHUM input,
the furnace control operates in Thermidistat mode. If the
DHUM input is off for more than 48 hours, the furnace
control reverts back to non-Thermidistat mode.
The cooling operation described in item 3 above also
applies to operation with a Thermidistat. The exceptions are

5. Continuous Blower Mode
When the R-to-G circuit is closed by the thermostat, the
blower motor BLWM will operate on continuous-blower
speed (can be set to LO-HEAT, HI-HEAT, or COOL
speed). Factory default is LO-HEAT speed. Terminal
EAC-1 is energized as long as the blower motor BLWM is
energized.
During a call for heat, the blower BLWM will stop during
igniter warm-up (17 seconds), ignition, and blower-ON
delay (45 seconds in low-heat, and 25 seconds in high-heat),
allowing the furnace heat exchangers to heat up more
quickly, then restarts at the end of the blower-ON delay
period at LO HEAT or HI HEAT speed.
The blower motor BLWM will revert to continuous-blower
speed after the heating cycle is completed. In high-heat, the

a demand for dehumidification, the furnace blower
motor BLWM will drop the blower speed from COOL to
HI-HEAT for a maximum of 10 minutes before reverting

CPU will drop the blower speed back to HI-HEAT
speed. This alternating 10-minute cycle will continue as
long as there is a call for cooling.

furnace control CPU will hold the blower motor BLWM at
HI HEAT speed during the selected blower-OFF delay
period before reverting to continuous-blower speed.
When the thermostat ″calls for low-cooling″, the blower
motor BLWM will switch to operate at low-cool speed
(same speed as LO-HEAT). When the thermostat is satisfied, the blower motor BLWM will operate an additional 90
seconds on low-cool speed before reverting back to
continuous-blower speed.
When the thermostat ″calls for high-cooling″, the blower
motor BLWM will operate at COOL speed. When the
thermostat is satisfied, the blower motor BLWM will
operate an additional 90 seconds on COOL speed before
reverting back to continuous-blower speed.
When the R-to-G circuit is opened, the blower motor
BLWM will continue operating for an additional 5 seconds,
if no other function requires blower motor BLWM operation.
Continuous-Blower Speed Selection from ThermostatTo select different continuous-blower speeds from the room
thermostat, momentarily turn the FAN switch or pushbutton on the room thermostat to OFF (AUTO) for 1-3
seconds after the blower motor BLWM is operating. The
furnace control CPU will shift the continuous-blower speed
from the factory setting of LO-HEAT to HI-HEAT speed.
Momentarily turning the FAN switch to OFF (AUTO) again
at the thermostat will shift the continuous-blower speed
from HI-HEAT to COOL. Repeating the procedure will
shift the continuous-blower speed from COOL to LOHEAT speed. The selection can be changed as many times
as desired and is stored in the memory to be automatically
used following a power interruption.
6. Heat Pump
(See Fig. 26, 27, 28, and 29 for thermostat connections)
When installed with a heat pump, the furnace control
automatically changes the timing sequence to avoid long
blower off times during demand defrost cycles. When the
R-to-W/W1-and-Y1 or R-to-W/W1-and-Y1-and-G circuits
are energized the furnace control CPU will switch to or turn
on the blower motor BLWM at low-cool speed (same speed
as LO-HEAT), and begin a low-heat cycle. The blower
motor BLWM will remain on until the end of the prepurge
period, then shut off for 24 seconds, then come back on at
LO-HEAT speed. When the W/W1 input signal disappears,
the furnace control begins a normal inducer post-purge
period and the blower remains running at LO-HEAT speed.
If the R-to-W/W1-and-Y1-and-G signals disappear at the
same time, the blower motor BLWM will remain on for the
selected blower-OFF delay period. If the R-to-W/W1and-Y1 signals disappear, leaving the G signal, the blower
motor BLWM will remain on for the selected blower-OFF
delay period then switch to continuous-blower speed.
When the R-to-W/W1-and-Y/Y2, R-to-W/W1-and-Y/Y2and-G, R-to-W/W1-and-Y1-and-Y/Y2, or R-to-W/W1-andY1-and-Y/Y2-and-G circuits are energized the furnace
control CPU will switch to or turn on the blower motor
BLWM at COOL speed, and begin a high-heat cycle. The
blower motor BLWM will remain on until the end of the
prepurge period, then shut off for 24 seconds then come
back on at HI-HEAT speed. When the W/W1 input signal
disappears, the furnace control begins a normal inducer
post-purge period and the blower switches to COOL speed
after a 3-second delay. If the R-to-W/W1-and-Y/Y2-and-G
or R-to-W/W1-and-Y1-and-Y/Y2-and-G signals disappear
at the same time, the blower motor BLWM will remain on
for the selected blower-OFF delay period. If the R-toW/W1-and-Y/Y2 or R-to-W/W1-and-Y1-and-Y/Y2 signals
disappear, leaving the G signal, the blower motor BLWM
will remain on for the selected blower-OFF delay period,
then switch to continuous-blower speed.
1. Heat pump MUST have a high pressure switch for dual fuel
applications.
2. Refer to outdoor equipment Installation Instructions for
additional information and setup procedure.
3. Select the “ZONE” position on the two-speed heat pump
control.
4. Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor must be attached in all
dual fuel applications.
5. Dip switch No. 1 on Thermidistat should be set in OFF
position for air conditioner installations. This is factory
default.
6. Dip switch No. 1 on Thermidistat should be set inON
position for heat pump installations.
7. Dip switch No. 2 on Thermidistat should be set in OFF
position for single-speed compressor operation. This is
factory default.
8. Dip switch No. 2 on Thermidistat should be set in ON
position for two-speed compressor operation.
9. Configuration Option No. 10 “Dual Fuel Selection” must be

10. NO connection should be made to the furnace HUM
terminal when using a Thermidistat.
11. Optional connection. If wire is connected, dip switch No. 1
on furnace control should be set in ON position to allow
Thermidistat/Thermostat to control furnace staging.
12. Optional connection. If wire is connected, ACRDJ jumper
on furnace control shouild be removed to allow
Thermidistat/Thermostat to control outdoor unit staging.
13. Furnace must control its own high-stage heating operation
via furnace control algorithm. This is factory default.
14. The RVS Sensing terminal “L” should not be connected.
This is internally used to sense defrost operation.
15. DO NOT SELECT the “FURNACE INTERFACE” or
“BALANCE POINT” option on the two-speed heat pump
control board. This is controlled internally by the
Thermidistat/Dual Fuel Thermostat.
16. Dip switch D on Dual Fuel Thermostat should be set in
OFF position for single-speed compressor operation. This
is factory default.
17. Dip switch D on Dual Fuel Thermostat should be set in ON
position for two-speed compressor operation.
III. START-UP PROCEDURES
1. Purge Gas Lines:After all connections have been made,
purge the lines and check for leaks.
WARNING: Never purge a line into a combustion
chamber. Never use matches, candles, flame, or other
sources of ignition for the purpose of checking leakage.
Use a soap-and-water solution to check for leakage.
Failure to follow this warning can cause fire, explosion,
personal injury, or death.
2. Component Self-Test:The furnace control allows all components, except the gas valve, to be run for short period of
time. This feature helps diagnose a system problem in case
of a component failure. To begin component test procedure,
short (jumper) the C
OM-24v terminal on control and the
TEST/TWIN 3/16-inch quick-connect terminal on control
(behind the C
OM-24v terminal) for approximately 2 sec.

3. Operate Furnace: Follow procedures on operating instructions label attached to furnace.
4. Furnace Restart: With the furnace operating, set the
thermostat below room temperature and observe that the
furnace goes off. Set the thermostat above room temperature and observe that the furnace restarts.
IV. ADJUSTMENTS
1. Set gas input rate
Furnace gas input rate on rating plate is for installations at
altitudes up to 2000 ft. Furnace input rate must be within ±2
percent of furnace rating plate input.
In the U.S.A., the input rating for altitudes above 2,000 ft.
must be reduced by 4
for each 1,000 ft. above sea level.
In Canada, input rating must be reduced by 10
for altitudes of 2,000 ft. to 4,500 ft. above sea level.
4. Determine natural gas orifice size and manifold pressure for
correct input.
a. Obtain average yearly gas heat value (at installed alti-
tude) from local gas supplier.
b. Obtain average yearly gas specific gravity from local gas
supplier.
c. Verify furnace model. Table 9 may only be used for
model 312AAV furnaces.
d. Find installation altitude in Table 9.
NOTE: For Canada altitudes of 2000 to 4500 ft, use U.S.A.
altitudes of 2001 to 3000 ft in Table 9.
e. Find closest natural gas heat value and specific gravity in
Table 9.
f. Follow heat value and specific gravity lines to point of
intersection to find orifice size and low-and high-heat
manifold pressure settings for proper operation.
g. Check and verify burner orifice size in furnace. NEVER
ASSUME ORIFICE SIZE. ALWAYS CHECK AND
VERIFY.
EXAMPLE: (0–2000 ft altitude)
Heating value = 975 Btu/cu ft
Specific gravity = 0.62
Therefore: Orifice No. 43*
Manifold pressure: 3.6-in. wc for high-heat
1.6-in. wc for low-heat
* Furnace is shipped with No. 43 orifices. In this example
all main burner orifices are the correct size and do not need
to be changed to obtain proper input rate.
5. Adjust manifold pressure to obtain input rate.
a. Remove regulator seal caps that conceal adjustment
screws for low-and high-heat gas valve pressure regulators. (See Fig.32)
b. Move setup switch LHT on control to ON position. (See
Fig. 22). This keeps furnace locked in low-heat operation.
c. Jumper R and W/W1 thermostat connections on control
to start furnace.
d. Turn low-heat adjusting screw (5/64 hex Allen wrench)
counterclockwise (out) to decrease input rate or clockwise (in) to increase input rate.
NOTE: DO NOT set low-heat manifold pressure less than 1.3–in
wc or more than 1.7–in. wc for natural gas. If manifold pressure is
outside this range, change main burner orifices.
CAUTION: DO NOT bottom out gas valve regulator
adjusting screw. This can result in unregulated manifold
pressure and result in excess overfire and heat exchanger
failures.
NOTE: If orifice hole appears damaged or it is suspected to have
been redrilled, check orifice hole with a numbered drill bit of
correct size. Never redrill an orifice. A burr-free and squarely
aligned orifice hole is essential for proper flame characteristics.

pressure is outside this range, change main burner orifices.
h. When correct input is obtained, replace caps that conceal
gas valve regulator adjustment screws. Main burner
flame should be clear blue, almost transparent. (See Fig.
34.)
i. Remove jumper R-to-W2.
6. Verify natural gas input rate by clocking gas meter.
a. Calculate high-altitude adjustment (if required).
UNITED STATES
At altitudes above 2000 ft, this furnace has been approved for a 4 percent derate for each 1000 ft above sea
level. See example and Table 10 for derate multiplier

factor.
CANADA
At installation altitudes from 2000 to 4500 ft, this
furnace must be derated 10 percent by an authorized Gas
Conversion Station or Dealer. To determine correct input
rate for altitude, see example above and use 0.90 as
derate multiplier factor.
b. Check that gas valve adjustment caps are in place for
proper input to be clocked.
c. Obtain yearly heat value average for local gas supply.
NOTE: Be sure heating value of gas used for calculation is
correct for your altitude. Consult local gas utility for altitude
adjustment of gas heating value.
* Derate multiplier factor is based on midpoint altitude for altitude range.

k. Multiply gas rtate cu ft/hr by heating value (Btu/cu ft).
l. Move setup switch LHT to OFF position and jumper R
and W2 thermostat connections. (See Fig. 22.) This keeps
furnace locked in high-heat operation. Repeat items h
through k for high-heat operation.
EXAMPLE: (High–heat operation at 0-2000 ft altitude)
Furnace input from rating plate is 88,000 Btuh.
Btu heating input = Btu/cu ft X cu ft/hr
Heating value of gas = 1050 Btu/cu ft
Time for 1 revolution of 2-cu ft dial = 87 sec
Gas rate = 83 cu ft/hr (from Table 11)
Btu heating input = 83 X 1050 = 87,150 Btuh. In this
example, the orifice size and manifold pressure adjustment
is within ±2 percent of the furnace input rate.
NOTE: Measured gas inputs (high-heat and low-heat) must be
within ± 2 percent of that stated on furnace rating plate when
installed at sea level or derated per that stated above when installed
at higher altitudes.
m. Remove jumper across R, W/W1, and W2 thermostat
connections to terminate call for heat.
7. Set temperature rise.
—26—
Place LHT in ON position. Jumper R to W/W1 and W2 to
check high-gas-heat temperature rise. To check low-gasheat temperature rise, remove jumper to W2. Determine air
temperature rise for both high and low fire. Do not exceed
temperature rise ranges specified on unit rating plate for
high-and low-fire.
The furnace must operate within the temperature rise ranges
specified on the furnace rating plate. Determine the air
temperature as follows:
a. Place thermometers in return and supply ducts as close to
furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not see
heat exchangers so that radiant heat does not affect
readings. This practice is particularly important with
straight-run ducts.
b. When thermometer readings stabilize, subtract return-air
temperature from supply-air temperature to determine
air temperature rise.
NOTE: If the temperature rise is outside this range, first check:
(1.) Gas input for low-and high-fire opeation.
(2.) Derate for altitude if applicable.
(3.) Return and supply ducts for excessive restrictions
causing static pressures greater than 0.50–in. wc.
c. Adjust air temperature rise by adjusting blower speed.
Increase blower speed to reduce temperature rise. Decrease blower speed to increase temperature rise. Fro
high fire, speed selection can be med-high, med
(5–speed blowers only), or med-low (factory setting).
For low fire, speed selection can be low (factory setting),
med-low, or med (5–speed blowers only).
WARNING: Disconnect 115-v electrical power before
changing speed tap. Failure to follow this warning could
result in personal injury.
d. To change motor speed selection for high heat, remove
blower motor lead from control HI-HEAT terminal. (See
Fig. 22 and 23.) Select desired blower motor speed lead
from 1 of the other terminals and relocate it to the
HI-HEAT terminal. (See Table 11 for lead color identification). Reconnect original lead to SPARE terminal.
Follow this procedure for proper selection of COOL and
LO-HEAT speed selection.

CAUTION: Recheck temperature rise. It must be within
limits specified on the rating plate. Recommended operation is at the midpoint of rise range or above.
8. Set thermostat heat anticipator.
a. When using a nonelectric thermostat, the thermostat
heat-anticipation must be set to match the amp draw of
the electrical components in the R-W/W1 circuit. Accu-
rate amp draw readings can be obtained at the wires
normally connected to thermostat subbase terminals, R
and W/W1.
Fig. 16 illustrates an easy method of obtaining actual
amp draw. The amp reading should be taken after blower
motot has started and furnace is operating in low-heat.
To operate furnace in low-heat, first move LHT to ON
position, then connect ammeter wires as shown in Fig.
37. The thermostat anticipator should NOT be in th
circuit while measuring current. If thermostat has no
subbase, the thermostat must be disconnected from R
and W/W1 wires during current measurement. Return
LHT to OFF after completing the reading. See thermostat manufacturer’s instructions for adjusting heatanticipator.
b. When using an elctronic thermostat, set cycle rate for 3
cycles per hr.
V. CHECK SAFETY CONTROLS
The flame sensor, gas valve, and pressure switch were all checked
in the Start-up procedure section as part of normal operation.
1. Check Main Limit Switches
This control shuts off combustion control system and energizes
air-circulating blower motor, if furnace overheats.
Recommended method of checking this limit control is to gradually block off return air after furnace has been operating for a
period of at least 5 minutes. As soon as limit control has shut off
burners, return-air opening should be unblocked to permit normal
air circulation. By using this method to check limit control, it can
be established that limit is functioning properly and will operate if
there is a restricted return-air supply or motor failure. If limit
control does not function during this test, cause must be determined and corrected.

3. Check Pressure Switch
This control proves operation of the draft inducer blower.
a. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
b. Remove outer door and disconnect inducer motor lead
wires from wire harness.
c. Turn on 115-v power to furnace.
d. Set thermostat to ″call for heat″ and wait 1 minute. When
pressure switch is functioning properly, hot surface
igniter should NOT glow and control diagnostic light
flashes a status code 32. If hot surface igniter glows
when inducer motor is disconnected, shut down furnace
immediately. Determine reason pressure switch did not
function properly and correct condition.
e. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
f. Reconnect inducer motor wires, replace outer door, and
turn on 115-v power.

2. Check draft safeguard switch.
The purpose of this control is to permit the safe shutdown of the
furnace during certain blocked vent conditions.
a. Disconnect power to furnace and remove vent connector
from furnace vent elbow. Be sure to allow time for vent
pipe to cool down before removing.
b. Restore power to furnace and set room thermostat above
room temperature.
c. After normal start-up, allow furnace to operate for 2
minutes, then block vent elbow in furnace 100 percent.
Furnace should cycle off within 2 minutes.
VI. CHECKLIST
1. Put away tools and instruments. Clean up debris.
2. Check that switches for LHT and OFF-DLY are selected as
desired.
3. Verify that blower and burner access doors are properly
installed.
4. Cycle test furnace with room thermostat.
5. Check operation of accessories per manufacturer’s instructions.
