LOCATION
I. GENERAL
CAUTION: Do not install furnace in a corrosive or
contaminated atmosphere. Make sure all combustion and
circulating air requirements are followed, in addition to
all local codes and ordinances.
Do not use this furnace during construction when adhe-
sives, sealers, and/or new carpets are being installed. If
the furnace is required during construction, use clean
outside air for combustion and ventilation. Compounds of
chlorine and fluorine when burned with combustion air
form acids which cause corrosion of the heat exchangers
and metal vent system. Some of these compounds are
found in paneling and dry wall adhesives, paints, thin-
ners, masonry cleaning materials, and many other sol-
vents commonly used in the construction process. Exces-
sive exposure to contaminated combustion air will result
in safety and performance related problems.
This furnace may be located in an attic, basement, crawlspace,
alcove, or suspended from the ceiling of a utility room or
basement.
WARNING: Do not install the furnace on its back or
side. Safety control operation will be adversely affected.
Never connect return-air ducts to the back of the furnace.
Failure to follow this warning could result in a fire,
personal injury, or death.

For attic installations, the passageway and servicing area adjacent
to furnace should be floored.
If furnace is to be installed in a crawlspace, consult local codes.
Use of a concrete pad 1 to 2 in. thick is recommended.
II. FURNACE LOCATION RELATIVE TO COOLING
EQUIPMENT
The cooling coil must be installed parallel with or on the
downstream side of the furnace to avoid condensation in the heat
exchanger. When installed parallel with a furnace, dampers or
other means used to control the flow of air must prevent chilled air
from entering the furnace. If the dampers are manually operated,
they must be equipped with a means to prevent operation of either
unit unless the damper is in the full-heat or full-cool position.
III. HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS
When furnace is installed in a residential garage, it must be
installed so that the burners and ignition source are located a
minimum of 18 in. above the floor. Furnace must be located or
protected to avoid physical damage by vehicles.
When furnace is installed in a public garage, airplane hangar, or
another building having a hazardous atmosphere, the unit must be
installed in accordance with the requirements of the National Fire
Protection Association, Inc.
WARNING: Do not place combustible material on furnace jacket. Failure to comply with this warning will
cause an explosion.
When a furnace is installed so that the supply ducts carry air to
areas outside the space containing the furnace, return air must also
be handled by duct(s) sealed to furnace casing and terminating
outside the space containing furnace to ensure there will not be a
negative pressure condition within the equipment room or space.
This furnace must be located so electrical components are protected from water.
Locate furnace close to the chimney/vent and as near the center of
air distribution system as possible. The furnace should not be
connected to an operating chimney that also serves a solid fuel
burning appliance.
Provide ample space for servicing and cleaning. Always comply
with the minimum fire protection clearances shown on the unit
rating plate and in Table 1. A clurance of at least 30 in. should be
provided at front of unit for servicing.
WARNING: This furnace is not watertight and is not
designed for outdoor installation. This furnace shall be
installed in such a manner as to protect the electrical
components from water. Outdoor installation would lead
to a hazardous electrical condition and premature component failure.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
I. GENERAL
Provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air must be
provided in accordance with Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and
Ventilation, of the NFGC, or applicable provisions of local
building codes.
—3—
Page 4
Canadian installations must be installed in accordance with the
NSCNGPIC and all authorities having jurisdiction.
WARNING: Do not block combustion air openings in
furnace. Any blockage will result in improper combustion
and may result in a fire hazard or unsafe condition.
CAUTION: Air for combustion must not be contaminated 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.
Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will
result in safety and performance related problems.
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.
All fuel-burning equipment must be supplied with air for combustion of the fuel. Sufficient air MUST be provided to ensure there
will not be a negative pressure in the equipment room or space. In
addition, a positive seal MUST be made between furnace cabinet
and return-air duct to avoid pulling air from burner area and draft
safeguard opening.
The furnace shall be installed in a location in which the facilities
for ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of gas, proper
venting, and maintenance of ambient temperature at safe limits
under normal conditions of use. The furnace shall be located so as
not to interfere with proper circulation of air.
In addition to air needed for combustion, process air must be
provided as required for cooling of equipment or material, controlling dew point, heating, drying, oxidation or dilution, safety
exhaust, and odor control. Air must be supplied for ventilation,
including all air required for comfort and proper working conditions for personnel.
CAUTION: Whenever this furnace is installed in an area
along with 1 or more gas appliances, the total Btuh input
of all appliances must be included when determining the
free area requirements for combustion and ventilation
openings.
The requirements for combustion and ventilation air depend upon
whether the furnace is located in a confined or unconfined space.
II. UNCONFINED SPACE
An unconfined space must have at least 50 cu ft for each 1000
Btuh of input for all appliances such as furnaces, clothes dryer,
water heaters, etc. in that space. Rooms communicating with the
space in which the appliances are installed through openings not
furnished with doors are considered a part of the unconfined space.
If the unconfined space is of unusually tight construction, air for
combustion and ventilation MUST come from either the outdoors
or spaces freely communicating with the outdoors. Combustion
and ventilation openings must be sized the same as for a confined
space. A minimum opening with a total of at least 1 sq in. per 5000
Btuh of total input rating for all equipment must be provided.
Return air must not be taken from the room unless an equal or
greater amount of air is supplied to the room.
III. CONFINED SPACE
A confined space has less than 50 cu ft for each 1000 Btuh of the
total input ratings of all appliances installed in that space.
A confined space MUST have 2 permanent openings, 1 within 12
in. of the ceiling and the other within 12 in. of the floor.
NOTE: In determining the free area of an opening, the blocking
effect of the louvers, grilles, and screens must be considered. If the
free area of a louver or grille design is unknown, assume that wood
louvers have a 20 percent free area and metal louvers or grilles
have a 60 percent free area. Screens, when used, must not be
smaller than 1/4-in. mesh. Louvers and grilles must be constructed
so they cannot be closed.
The size of the openings depends upon whether the air comes from
inside or outside of the structure.
A. All Air from Inside the Structure:
1. Each opening MUST have at least 1 sq in. of free area per
1000 Btuh of the total input for all equipment within the
confined space, but not less than 100 sq in. per opening.
For Example:
349HAV FURNACE
INPUT BTUH
50,000100
75,000100
100,000100
125,000125
FREE AREA PER
OPENING (SQ IN.)
2. If the building is of unusually tight construction, in addition
to the 2 permanent openings that freely communicate with
an unconfined space, a permanent opening directly communicating with the outdoors should be provided. This opening
should have a minimum free area of 1 sq in. per 5000 Btuh
of total input rating for all equipment in the enclosure.
3. 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 the furnace, all air for
combustion must come from outdoors.
B. All Air from Outdoors:
1. If combustion air is taken from outdoors through vertical
ducts, the openings and ducts MUST have at least 1 sq in.
of free area per 4000 Btuh of the total input for all
equipment within the confined space.
For Example:
349HAV FURNACE
INPUT BTUH
50,00012.54
75,00018.85
100,00025.06
125,00031.37
FREE AREA PER
OPENING (SQ IN.)
ROUND PIPE
(IN. DIA)
2. If combustion air is taken from the outdoors through
horizontal ducts, the openings and ducts MUST have at
least 1 sq in. of free area per 2000 Btuh of the total input for
all equipment within the confined space.
—4—
Page 5
For Example:
349HAV FURNACE
INPUT BTUH
50,00025.06
75,00037.57
100,00050.08
125,00062.59
FREE AREA PER

ROUND PIPE
(IN. DIA)
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 rectangular ducts must not be less than 3
in.
IV. CONTAMINATED COMBUSTION AIR
Contaminated combustion air must be avoided in order not to
adversely affect the long term life of furnace, especially heat
exchanger and burners.
The recommended source of combustion air is to use the outdoor
air supply. Use of indoor air in most applications is acceptable as
long as there is no exposure to the types of installation or
substances listed below and all provisions for indoor combustion
air meet the requirements for combustion air supply indicated in
the NFGC Section 5.3; CAN1-B149 Installation Codes; and/or any
applicable local codes.
A. Installations Requiring Outdoor Combustion Air
1. The following types of installations require OUTDOOR
AIR for combustion due to chemical exposures:
a. Commercial buildings
b. Buildings with indoor pools
c. Furnaces installed in laundry rooms
d. Furnaces installed in hobby or craft rooms
e. Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas
2. Exposure to the following substances in the combustion air
supply also require OUTDOOR AIR for combustion:
a. Permanent wave solutions
b. Chlorinated waxes or cleaners
c. Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals
d. Water softening chemicals
e. De-icing salts or chemicals
f. Carbon tetrachloride
g. Halogen-type refrigerants
h. Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene)
i. Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.
j. Hydrochloric acid
k. Cements and glues
l. Anti-static fabric softeners for clothes dryers
m. Masonry acid washing materials
The following recommendations should be followed when installing duct work:
1. Install locking type dampers in all branches of individual
ducts to balance out system. Dampers should be adjusted to
impose proper static at outlet of furnace.
2. Noncombustible flexible duct connectors are recommended
to connect both supply- and return-air ducts to furnace.
3. In cases where return-air grille is located close to fan inlet,
there should be at least one 90° air turn between fan and
inlet grille. Further reduction in sound can be accomplished
by installing acoustical air turning vanes and/or lining
inside of duct with acoustical material.
4. It is recommended that outlet duct be provided with a
removable access panel. The opening shall be accessible
when furnace is installed and shall be of such a size that
heat exchanger can be viewed for possible openings using
light assistance or so a probe can be inserted for sampling
air stream. The access panel shall be designed so as to
prevent leaks when locked in position. If an air conditioning
coil is installed, access panel to coil can be used for this
purpose.
CAUTION: Air openings, intake and outlet pipes,
return-air grilles, and warm air registers must not be
obstructed.
WARNING: When supply ducts carry air circulated by
furnace to areas outside spaces containing furnace, return
air shall also be handled by a duct sealed to furnace
casing and terminating outside space containing furnace.
Incorrect duct work termination and sealing will create a
hazardous condition which could lead to bodily harm.
5. When installing furnace with cooling equipment for yearround operation, the following recommendations must be
followed for series or parallel airflow:
a. In series airflow applications, coil is mounted after
furnace in an enclosure in supply-air stream. The furnace
blower is used for both heating and cooling airflow.
WARNING: The coil MUST be installed on air discharge side of furnace. Under no circumstances should
airflow be such that cooled, conditioned air can pass over
furnace heat exchanger. This will cause condensation in
heat exchanger and possible failure of heat exchanger
which could lead to a fire hazard and/or a hazardous
condition which may lead to bodily harm. Heat exchanger
failure due to improper installation may not be covered by
warranty.
INSTALLATION
I. DUCT WORK RECOMMENDATIONS
IMPORTANT: This furnace is equipped with a metal heat
exchanger shipping bracket which must be removed before installing furnace. The No. 10 screws which fasten bracket to furnace
will interfere with attachment of outlet duct if not removed.
Remove bracket by removing No. 10 screws located on bottom
panel duct supply flange, rotating bracket forward and lifting out.
The proper sizing of warm air ducts is necessary to ensure
satisfactory furnace operation. Duct work should be in accordance
with the latest editions of U.S. NFPA-90A (Air Conditioning
Systems) and NFPA-90B (Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems) or Canadian equivalent.
b. In parallel airflow installation, dampers must be pro-
vided to direct air over furnace heat exchanger when
heat is desired and over cooling coil when cooling is
desired.
IMPORTANT: The dampers should be adequate to prevent
cooled air from entering furnace. If manually operated, dampers
must be equipped with means to prevent operation of either
cooling unit or furnace unless damper is in full cool or full heat
position.

III. HORIZONTAL CRAWLSPACE INSTALLATION
The furnace can be installed horizontally for either left- or
right-side supply. In a crawlspace, the furnace can either be hung
from floor joists or installed on suitable blocks or a pad. The
furnace can be suspended using steel pipe straps around each end
of furnace. These straps should be attached to furnace with sheet
metal screws and to floor joists with lag bolts. A framed assembly
of angle iron suspended with all-thread rod of suitable diameter
may be used to support the length of furnace. Refer to Fig. 1 for
size and weight of furnace. Care must be taken to allow for blower
door access.
The horizontal crawlspace installation is very similar to the attic.
Refer to Horizontal Attic Installation section, items 2, 3, 4, and 5.
A 24- X 24-in. sheet metal shield must be installed above the
controls for crawlspace installations. Extend sheet metal shield
over furnace top far enough to cover gas pipe entry hole.
IV. FILTER ARRANGEMENT
CAUTION: Never operate the unit without a filter or
with the filter removed. Failure to follow this caution can
result in a fire, personal injury, or death.
A factory-supplied filter and wire filter retainer are shipped with
furnace. After return-air duct has been connected to furnace, install
filter in blower compartment, just ahead of return-air plenum, and
secure it with wire filter retainer. The cross-mesh binding side of

V. GAS PIPING
Gas piping must be installed in accordance with national and local
codes. Refer to the current edition of the NFGC.
Canadian installations must be installed in accordance with the
NSCNGPIC and all authorities having jurisdiction.
Gas piping shall be of such size and so installed as to provide a
supply of gas sufficient to meet maximum demands without undue
loss of pressure between gas meter and furnace. It is recommended
that the gas supply line be a separate line running directly from
meter to furnace, unless existing gas line is of ample capacity.
Refer to Table 3 for recommended gas pipe sizing. Risers must be
used to connect to furnace and to meter.
Support all piping with appropriate straps, hangers, etc. Use a
minimum of 1 hanger every 72 in.
Joint compounds (pipe dope) should be applied sparingly and only
to male threads of joints. This pipe dope must be resistant to the
action of propane gas.
*Cu ft of gas per hr for gas pressures of 0.5 psig (14-in. wc) or less, and a
pressure drop of 0.5-in. wc (based on a 0.60 specific gravity gas). Ref: Table

NOTE: In order to make proper adjustments, minimum and
maximum gas supply pressure limits shown on rating plate must
not be exceeded.
Install a sediment trap in riser leading to furnace. The trap can be
installed by connecting a tee to riser leading to furnace, so that the
straight-through section of tee is vertical.
Then connect a capped nipple into lower end of tee. The capped
nipple should extend below the level of gas controls. Place a
ground joint union between gas control manifold and manual gas
shutoff valve. (See Fig. 4.)
Piping should be pressure tested in accordance with local and
national plumbing and gas codes before furnace has been attached.
If test pressure exceeds 0.5 psig (14-in. wc), the gas supply pipe
must be disconnected from furnace and capped before pressure
test. If test pressure is equal to or less than 0.5 psig (14-in. wc),
close manual shutoff valve located on gas valve before pressure
test. It is recommended that the ground joint union be loosened
before pressure testing.
CAUTION: Use a backup wrench when connecting the
gas pipe to the furnace to avoid damaging gas controls.
After all connections have been made, purge the lines and check
for leakage.
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.

VENTING
I. GENERAL VENTING REQUIREMENTS
→
Venting for furnace should be to the outside and in accordance
with local codes or requirements of local utility. In the absence of
local codes, venting should conform to the NFGC Part 7 or
CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Codes Section 7, the vent manufacturer’s Installation Instructions, and the A.G.A./GAMA Venting
Tables supplied with furnace.
These furnaces are equipped with induced-combustion blowers
and are classified as Category I forced air furnaces in accordance
with ANSI/A.G.A. Z21.47 and C.G.A. 2.3 Central Furnace Standards. Category I furnaces use non-positive, non-condensing vent
systems, and may be connected to lined masonry chimneys which
have been sized and installed per the enclosed procedures. Category I furnaces can not be vented into a vent system with any
Category II, III, or IV appliance. It must be vented vertically or
nearly vertically, unless installed with a listed mechanical venter in
accordance with horizontal venting instructions in the Horizontal
Venting section below. A Category I furnace must not be connected to any portion of a mechanical draft system operating under
positive pressure.
Venting of these furnaces into a lined masonry chimney could
form flue gas condensate due to cold surfaces and oversizing. If
condensate is present in the masonry chimney, a drain must be
provided to prevent condensate flow into the vent connector and
furnace. (Refer to the NFGC, Section 7.9 for additional information on condensate drains.) Field experience on inducedcombustion furnaces has shown that venting through a properly
sized Type B-1 vent significantly reduces vent condensation.
Condensate is acidic and could corrode vent materials. Therefore,
the manufacturer suggests (but does not require) that these
furnaces be connected to vent systems constructed of Type B-1
vent material.
This furnace may be common vented only with other Category I
appliances. Common venting is allowed as permitted by national
and/or local codes. Refer to the NFGC Venting Tables supplied
with furnace for proper sizing and setup.
The vent must be terminated with a listed vent cap or roof
assembly. This venting must be installed in accordance with the
vent manufacturer’s Installation Instructions and be in accordance
with all local and/or national codes.
The following requirements are provided for a safe venting
system:
1. Be sure chimney flue is clear of any dirt or debris.
2. Be sure chimney is not servicing an open fireplace.
3. Never reduce pipe size below outlet size of furnace without
checking the NFGC Venting Tables supplied with furnace.
4. All pipe should be supported using proper clamps and/or
straps. These supports should be at least every 4 ft.
5. All horizontal runs of pipe should slope upward at least 1/4
in. per ft from furnace to vent terminal.
—11—
Page 12
6. All runs of pipe should be as short as possible with as few
turns as possible.
7. Seams should be tightly joined and checked for leaks.
8. The flue pipe must not extend into chimney but be flush
with inside wall.
9. The chimney or vent pipe must extend at least 3 ft above the
highest point where it passes through a roof of a building
and at least 2 ft higher than any portion of a building within
a horizontal distance of 10 ft. It shall also extend at least 5
ft. above highest connected equipment flue collar.
NOTE: The NFGC venting tables MUST be used; DO NOT use
BDP’s Single-Stage Vent Tables for Category I Fan-AssistedFurnaces, as they are based on different input ratings.
II. PRE-INSTALLATION VENT SYSTEM INSPECTION
Before furnace is installed, it is highly recommended that any
existing vent system be completely inspected.
For a chimney or Type B vent, this should include the following:
1. Inspection for any deterioration in chimney or Type B vent.
If deterioration is discovered, the chimney must be repaired
or Type B vent must be replaced.
2. Inspection to ascertain that vent system is clear and free of
obstructions. Any blockage must be cleared before installing furnace.
3. Cleaning chimney or Type B vent if previously used for
venting a solid fuel burning appliance or fireplace.
4. Confirming that all unused chimney or Type B vent
connections are properly sealed.
5. Verification that chimney is properly lined and sized per
applicable codes.
III. REMOVAL OF EXISTING FURNACES FROM
COMMON VENT SYSTEMS
If furnace being replaced was connected to a common vent system
with other appliances, the following steps shall be followed with
each appliance connected to the venting system placed in operation, while any other appliances connected to the venting system
are not in operation:
1. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal
pitch as required in the NFGC or the CAN/CGA B149
Installation Codes and these instructions. Determine that
there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion, and
other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. In so far as is practical, close all building doors and
windows and all doors between the space in which the
appliance(s) connected to the venting system are located
and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and
any appliance not connected to the venting system. Turn on
any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom
exhausts, so they shall operate at maximum speed. Do not
operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
4. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being
inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so appliance shall
operate continuously.
5. Test for draft hood equipped appliance spillage at the draft
hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance connected
to the venting system properly vents when tested as outlined
above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers, and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous
conditions of use.
7. If improper venting is observed during any of above tests,
the venting system must be corrected.
Vent system or vent connectors may need to be resized. For any
other appliances when resizing vent systems or vent connectors,
system or connector must be sized to approach minimum size as
determined using appropriate table found in the NFGC or NSCNGPIC.
IV. METAL VENT INSTALLATIONS
The furnace is approved for use with Type B vent that terminates
through the roof. Refer to the NFGC Venting Tables supplied with
furnace for proper sizing and setup of this furnace with Type B
vent for a dedicated vent system or a common vented system.
V. MASONRY CHIMNEY INSTALLATIONS
This furnace can be common vented into an existing tile lined
masonry chimney provided:
1. The chimney is currently serving at least 1 drafthood
equipped appliance.
2. The vent connectors and chimney are sized in accordance
with the NFGC Venting Tables supplied with furnace.
This furnace must not be vented ALONE into an existing masonry
chimney (either tile lined or unlined) unless the chimney is also
lined with either a Type B vent system or a listed single-wall metal
lining system (as specified in the NFGC Venting Tables). Both of
these systems must be sized in accordance with the NFGC Venting
Tables supplied with furnace.
Before venting this furnace into a chimney, check chimney for
deterioration and repair if necessary.
This furnace must not be vented into a chimney serving a separate
appliance designed to burn solid fuel.
Type B vent connector must be used on all installations. It must be
sized per the NFGC Venting Tables supplied with furnace.
VI. MULTISTORY INSTALLATIONS

Page 13
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Using the schematic diagram in Fig. 11, follow the sequence of
operation through the different modes. This furnace has a unique
control system. Read and follow the wiring diagram very carefully.
I. HEATING MODE
When wall thermostat calls for heat, the R-W circuit closes.
1. Inducer start-up sequence—Power from transformer energizes fan control board. The fan control energizes the
induced-draft blower motor. Pressure switch P normally
open contacts close to energize ignition module.
2. Ignition module self-check—Upon being energized, the
ignition module performs a 2-sec self-check. The ignition
module checks for the presence of flame. If flame is present
when it should not be, the module energizes the blower. The
gas pilot valve remains closed, and ignitor is not energized.
If no flame is detected, the module initiates the ignition
sequence.
3. Ignition sequence—The ignition module energizes the hot
surface pilot ignitor. The module then checks for a missing
or broken ignitor. If ignitor is faulty, there is no further
system response. If ignitor is functional, the pilot gas valve
is energized and gas is allowed to flow to pilot where it is
ignited. A flame sensing period then begins.
4. Flame sensing—Pilot flame is sensed through the ignition
module’s flame sensing rod. If pilot flame is not sensed, the
ignitor remains energized, and pilot gas valve remains open.
If this is due to a gas interruption, the system continues its
attempt to light pilot until gas is restored and unit lights or
system is turned off. When pilot flame is sensed, the main
gas valve opens and the pilot flame lights the burners. The
blower on delay period then begins.
5. Blower on delay—The fan control starts blower after 30
sec. The blower on delay is not adjustable.
6. Blower off delay—When thermostat is satisfied, the circuit
between R and W is broken, de-energizing gas valve and
stopping gas flow to burners. The blower motor remains
energized 60, 90, 120, or 150 sec depending on blower off
delay selection (factory shipped set for 60-sec delay).
7. Post purge—Inducer motor remains energized for 5 sec
after burners are extinguished.
II. COOLING MODE
When wall thermostat calls for cooling, the R-G and R-Y circuits
close. The R-Y circuit starts outdoor condensing unit, and the
combined R-Y and R-G circuits start furnace blower motor on
cooling speed.
When thermostat is satisfied, the R-G and R-Y circuits are broken.
The furnace blower de-energizes immediately.
START-UP, ADJUSTMENT, AND SAFETY CHECK
I. GENERAL
1. The furnace must have a 115-v power supply properly
connected and grounded.
NOTE: Proper polarity must be maintained for correct operation.
2. Thermostat wire connections at R, W, Y, and C must be
made at the 24-v terminal block on control board.
3. 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) for
natural gas.
II. REMOVE SHIPPING BRACKET
The furnace is equipped with a metal blower wheel shipping
bracket which MUST be removed before putting furnace into
operation. To remove this bracket:
1. Remove blower access panel.
2. Remove 2 mounting screws.
3. Slide bracket off blower wheel hub.
4. Replace blower panel.
III. PURGE GAS LINES
If not previously done, purge the lines after all connections have
been made 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 could result in a fire,
explosion, personal injury, or death.
CAUTION: Many soaps used for leak testing are corrosive to certain metals. Piping must be rinsed thoroughly
with clean water after leak check has been completed.
IV. OPERATIONAL CHECKOUT
This furnace is equipped with an automatic hot surface pilot
ignition control and does not require lighting of a pilot for furnace
operation.
WARNING: Do not attempt to manually light pilot.
Failure to follow this warning can lead to electrical shock
which could result in bodily harm.
The automatic gas valve controls the flow of gas to both the pilot
→
and main burners. The manual switch built into automatic valve
body has 2 positions: OFF and ON.
→
To shut off gas manually, turn switch from ON to OFF position.
When in OFF position, main burners and pilot are extinguished.
After duct work connections have been made, gas piping and
electrical wiring completed, and furnace had been properly vented,
unit should be started and adjusted for proper operation. Check off
the following items as they are completed.
1. Make sure all electrical power is off.
2. Check all wiring using proper wiring diagram on inside of
control box cover.
3. Turn on electrical power to unit.
4. Turn gas valve manual switch to ON position.
→
5. Set thermostat above room temperature.
6. The hot surface ignitor should heat up to an orange glow
and ignite pilot. If flame sensor detects a proper flame, main
burners will ignite. If main burners do not ignite, see Adjust
Pilot Flame section below.
7. When main burners ignite, proceed to Set Gas Input Rate
section.
—13—
Page 14
V. ADJUSTMENTS
A. Adjust Pilot Flame
Pilot assembly should be located as shown in Fig. 13. Adjust pilot
flame to envelop the flame sensor for a distance of 3/8 to 1/2 in.

B. Set Gas Input Rate
WARNING: Never set furnace input rate above that
shown on rating plate. Failure to follow this warning
could lead to premature heat exchanger failure and a
hazardous furnace operating condition and result in
serious bodily injury or loss of life.
There are 2 methods of adjusting gas input rate. The preferred
method is by using Table 5 and item 1. The second method is by
clocking the gas meter and using item 2. Item 2 must be used for
altitudes above 2000 ft.
1. Determine natural gas orifice size and manifold pressure for
correct input using Table 5.
a. Obtain average yearly heat value for local gas supply.
b. Obtain average yearly specific gravity for local gas
supply.
c. Verify the furnace model. Table 5 can only be used for
model 349HAV Furnaces.
g. Proceed to item 3 to adjust manifold pressure.
2. Determine natural gas input rate by clocking gas meter.
NOTE: Be sure all pressure tubing, vent pipes, and burner
enclosure plates are in place when checking input.
a. Obtain average yearly heat value for local gas supply.
NOTE: Be sure heating value of gas used for calculations is
correct for your altitude. Consult local gas utility for altitude
adjustments of gas heating value.
b. Turn off all other gas appliances and pilots.
c. Start furnace and let it run for 3 minutes.
d. Measure time (in sec) for gas meter test dial to complete
1 revolution.
e. Refer to Table 6 for cu ft of gas per hr.
f. Multiply gas rate (cu ft/hr) by heating value (Btu/cu ft).
Obtain heating value from local gas utility.
EXAMPLE:
Btu heating input = Btu/cu ft X cu ft/hr
Heating value of gas = 1070 Btu/cu ft
Time for 1 revolution of 2-cu-ft dial = 72 sec
Gas rate = 100 cu ft/hr (from Table 6)
Btu heating input = 100 X 1070 = 107,000 Btuh.
g. Measured gas input must not exceed gas input on unit
rating plate.
(1.) High-altitudeinstallations(UnitedStates
only)—Gas input on rating plate is for altitudes up
to 2000 ft. Ratings for altitudes over 2000 ft must be
4 percent less for each 1000 ft above sea level. To
obtain the altitude adjusted rating, adjust the manifold pressure (see item 3), and replace the main
burner orifices as needed (see item 4). Refer to
NFGC Appendix F, Table F-4 for proper orifice
sizing at high altitudes.
nadian ratings are approved for altitudes up to 2000
ft for natural and propane gases. High-altitude
ratings are from 2000 ft to 4500 ft above sea level.
See Table 7 for nominal burner orifice size. Highaltitude input ratings include a 10 percent derate as
required by Canadian standards.
h. Proceed to item 3 to adjust manifold pressure.

3. Adjust gas input.
NOTE: The gas valve has been nominally set at 3.5-in. wc for
natural gas.
a. Remove cap that conceals adjustment screw for gas
valve regulator. (See Fig. 15.)
b. Turn adjusting screw either counterclockwise (out) to
decrease input rate or clockwise (in) to increase rate.
When adjusting input rate, DO NOT set manifold
pressure less than 3.2-or more than 3.8-in. wc for natural
gas. Make any major adjustments by changing main
burner orifices.
WARNING: DO NOT redrill orifices. Improper drilling
(burrs, out-of-round holes, etc.) can cause excessive
burner noise and misdirection of burner flames. This can
result in flame impingement of the burners and heat
exchangers causing failures.
NOTE: If orifice hole appears damaged or it is suspected to have
been redrilled, check the orifice hole with the correct size
numbered drill bit. Never redrill an orifice. A burr-free and
squarely aligned orifice hole is essential for proper flame characteristics.
c. Measure adjusted gas input rate using method outlined in
item 2.

4. Change burner orifice (if necessary).
The furnace is supplied with standard orifices for the gas
shown on rating plate. If orifices need to be changed to
achieve proper input rate, proceed as follows:
a. Remove manifold pipe cover and burner removal
cover/air inlet plate.
b. Remove manifold retention plate.
c. Pull manifold/burner assembly out past support pins and
remove assembly.
—16—
Page 17
NOTE: It is only necessary to remove 1 manifold retention plate
to gain access to burners.
d. Remove burners from assembly and change orifices as
required.
e. Reinstall assembly by reversing the procedure in items a
through d making sure that assembly is securely
mounted under manifold retention plate on opposite side
of unit.
CAUTION: Care must be taken when removing pilot
burner in order not to damage pilot gas line or hot surface
ignitor.
f. After securing manifold assembly, replace all other
components and/or wiring making sure that all connections and screws are tightened properly.
C. Set Temperature Rise
The furnace must not be operated outside the range of temperature
rise specified on unit rating plate. Determine air temperature rise as
follows:
a. Place thermometers in return and supply ducts as near
furnace as possible. Be sure thermometers do not "see"
heat exchanger 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.
c. Adjust temperature rise by adjusting blower speed.
Increase blower speed to reduce temperature rise. Decrease blower speed to increase temperature rise.
WARNING: Disconnect the electrical power before
changing the speed tap. Failure to follow this warning
could result in personal injury.
d. To change motor speed taps, remove the motor tap lead
and relocate it on the desired terminal on the plug in
terminal block/speed selector located at the blower
motor. (See Table 8.)

CAUTION: Recheck the temperature rise. It must be
within limits specified on the unit rating plate. Recommended operation is at midpoint of rise or above.
D. Set Blower Off Delay
The blower off delay may be adjusted for a 60- (factory setting),
90-, 120-, or 150-sec delay. Set the DIP switches on the control
board to obtain desired time delay. (See Fig. 17.)
E. Set Thermostat Heat Anticipator
The thermostat heat anticipator must be set to match the amp draw
of components in the R to W circuit. Accurate amp draw
measurements can be obtained at thermostat subbase terminals R
and W.

VI. CHECK SAFETY CONTROLS
A. Check Primary Limit Control
The heat sensing switch performs as the furnace high temperature
limit switch. If furnace overheats for any reason, the limit switch
opens, breaking circuit to main gas valve. If limit is activated
check for a restriction in duct system (dirty filters, blocked duct
work, closed registers, etc.). The blower motor is energized and as
unit cools, limit switch closes. This relights main burners, but
unless overheating condition is corrected, furnace will cycle on
limit. Corrective action must be taken.
The recommended method of checking 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 circulating air supply or motor failure. If limit
control does not function during this test, the cause must be
determined and corrected.
B. Check Pressure Switch (Blocked-Vent Shutoff
Switch)
This control proves operation of the draft inducer. Check switch
operation as follows:
1. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
2. Remove control box cover and disconnect inducer motor
lead wires from control board.

3. Turn on 115-v power to furnace.
4. Set thermostat to call for heat. When pressure switch is
functioning properly, ignitor should not glow. If ignitor
glows when inducer motor is disconnected, shut down
furnace immediately. Determine the reason pressure switch
did not function properly and correct the condition.
5. Turn off 115-v power to furnace.
6. Reconnect inducer motor lead, reinstall control box cover,
and turn on 115-v power supply.
C. Flame Rollout Switch
This furnace is equipped with a manual reset flame rollout shutoff
switch which is attached to burner/manifold assembly. In the event
that a blockage prevents venting of flue gases from heat exchanger,
the switch detects conditions that would produce a flame rollout
and shuts off power to automatic gas valve before there is furnace
damage or a flame rollout outside of furnace cabinet. The loss of
power to gas valve shuts off gas burners, however, blower is still
controlled by fan and limit switch and operates until heat exchanger temperatures have cooled.
CHECKLIST
1. Put away tools and instruments. Clean up debris. Verify that
blower and control access panels are properly installed.
2. Cycle test furnace with room thermostat.
3. Check operation of accessories per manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Review User’s Guide with owner.
5. Leave literature packet near furnace.
