The model 362AAN Furnaces are available in sizes 105,000
through 155,000 Btuh input capacities.

The furnace is shipped as a packaged unit, complete with burner
and controls. It requires a line voltage (115 vac) connection to
control box, a thermostat hook-up as shown on wiring diagram, oil
line connection(s), adequate duct work, and connection to a
properly sized vent.

The air handling capacity of this furnace is designed for cooling
airflow. Refer to Table 5 for expected airflows at various external
duct static pressures.

LOCATION

WARNING: This furnace is not water tight and is not

designed for outdoor installation. This furnace shall be
installed in such a manner as to protect electrical com­ponents from water. Outdoor installation would lead to a
hazardous electrical condition and to premature furnace
failure.

WARNING: Do not use this furnace as a construction
heater. Use of this furnace as a construction heater
exposes furnace to abnormal conditions, contaminated
combustion air, and lack of air filters. Failure to follow
this warning can lead to premature furnace failure and/or
vent failure which could result in a fire hazard and/or
bodily harm.

This furnace is approved for reduced clearances to combustible
construction, therefore, it may be installed in a closet or similar
enclosure. It may be located in a basement or on the same level as
area to be heated. In any case, unit should always be installed level.

In a basement or when installed on the floor, it is recommended
that unit be installed on a concrete pad that is 1- to 2-in. thick.

On dirt floors, furnace may be installed on concrete blocks. Place
blocks under all 4 corners and under center of furnace. Center

.

block 22 in. from back of furnace forward.
The required minimum clearances for this furnace are specified in

Table 1.
The furnace should be located as close as possible to chimney or

vent in order to keep vent connections short and direct. The
furnace should also be located as near as possible to center of air
distribution system.

I. AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION

WARNING: Installation of this furnace in an area where

it will receive contaminated combustion air must be
avoided. Such contamination would include the follow­ing: ammonia, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, halogenated
hydrocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, cleaning solvents,
hydrochloric acid, water softening chemicals, and similar

1

chemicals. Failure to follow this warning will lead to
premature rusting of heat exchanger and possible prema­ture furnace failure and/or vent failure which could result
in fire hazard and/or bodily harm.

This furnace should be installed in a location in which facilities for
ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of oil, proper venting,
and maintenance of ambient temperature at safe limits under
normal conditions of use. The location should not interfere with
proper circulation of air within the confined space. (See NFPA-31,
Section 1.5.)

In addition to air needed for combustion, process air shall be
provided as required for: cooling of equipment or material,
controlling dew point, heating, drying, oxidation or dilution, safety
exhaust, and odor control.

In addition to air needed for combustion, air shall be supplied for
ventilation, including all air required for comfort and proper
working conditions for personnel.

The barometric draft regulator (included with furnace) shall be
installed in same room or enclosure as furnace in such a manner as
to prevent any difference in pressure between regulator and
combustion-air supply.

Air requirements for operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation
systems, clothes dryers, and fireplaces shall be considered in
determining the adequacy of a space to provide combustion-air
requirements.

→

In unconfined spaces in buildings of conventional frame, brick, or
stone construction, infiltration MAY be adequate to provide air for
combustion, ventilation, and dilution of flue gases. This determi­nation must be made on an individual installation basis and must
take into consideration the overall volume of unconfined space, the
number of windows and ventilation openings, the number of doors
to the outside, internal doors which can close off unconfined space,
and overall tightness of building construction. Consideration must
also be given to the amount of storage items (furniture, boxes, etc.)
within the unconfined space which take away from the air volume.

Many new buildings and homes (and older ones that have been
weatherized) MUST BE considered as being of tight construction,
therefore, infiltration will not be sufficient to supply necessary air
for combustion and ventilation.

A building can be considered as being of tight construction when:

1. Walls and ceilings exposed to outside atmosphere have a
continuous water vapor retarder with a rating of 1 perm or
less with openings gasketed or sealed, and/or

2. Weatherstripping has been added on operable windows and
doors, and/or

—2—

3. Caulking or sealants are applied to areas such as joints
around window and door frames; between sole plates and
floors; between wall-ceiling joints; between wall panels; at
penetrations for plumbing, electrical, and fuel lines; and at
other openings.

If combustion and ventilation air must be supplied to an uncon­fined space from outside, an opening with a FREE AREA of not
less than 1 sq in. per 1000 Btuh of total input of all appliances
within unconfined space (but not less than 100 sq in.) must be
provided. This opening must be located such that it can not be
blocked at any time.

When furnace is installed in a closet or enclosure, 2 ventilation
openings, with OPEN AREA as dimensioned in example below
are required for combustion air. The openings should be located
about 6 in. from top and bottom of enclosure at front of furnace.

For a confined space, where air is taken from an interior space, 2
permanent openings of equal area are required. One opening must
be within 12 in. of ceiling and the other within 12 in. of floor. Each
opening must have a free area of at least 1 sq in. per 1000 Btuh of
total input rating but not less than 100 sq in.

If outside air is supplied to a confined space, then the 2 openings
must be equal and located as above. The free area of each must be:

1. One sq in. per 4000 Btuh of total input rating when air is
directly communicated from outdoors.

2. One sq in. per 4000 Btuh of total input rating when air is
brought in through vertical ducts.

3. One sq in. per 2000 Btuh of total input rating when air is
transferred through horizontal ducts.

When ducts are used to supply air, they must be of the same cross
sectional area as free area of openings to which they connect.

The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts must not be less
than 3 in.

In calculating free area, consideration shall be given to blocking
effect of louvers, grilles, or screens protecting openings. Screens
used shall not be smaller than 1/4-in. mesh and shall be readily
accessible for cleaning. If free area through a design of louver or
grille is known, it shall be used in calculating size design and free
area specified. If design and free area are not known, it may be
assumed that wood louvers have 20 percent free area and metal
louvers and grilles have 60 percent free area. Louvers shall be
fixed in open position or interlocked with furnace so they open
automatically at furnace start-up and remain open during furnace
operation.

WARNING: Do not block combustion-air openings in
the furnace. Any blockage will result in improper com­bustion which may result in a fire hazard and/or cause
bodily harm.

5. Lockouts on start-up.

II. DUCT WORK RECOMMENDATIONS

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 NFPA-90A (Installation of Air Condi­tioning and Ventilating Systems) and NFPA-90B (Warm Air
Heating and Air Conditioning Systems) or Canadian equivalent.

The supply duct work should be attached to flanged opening
provided at discharge end of furnace. See Fig. 5 for dimensions of
this opening.

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. A flexible duct connector of noncombustible material
should be installed at unit on both supply- and return-air
systems. In applications where extremely quiet operation is
necessary, the first 10 ft (if possible) of supply and return
ducts should be internally lined with acoustical material.

3. In cases where return-air grille is located close to fan inlet,
there should be at least one 90° air turn between fan inlet
and grille. Further reduction in sound level can be accom­plished by installing acoustical air turning vanes or lining
duct as described in item 2 above.

4. When a single air grille is used, duct between grille and
furnace must be the same size as return opening in furnace.

CAUTION: 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 MUST 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.

When installing furnace with cooling equipment for year-round
operation, the following recommendations must be followed for
series or parallel airflow:

1. 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.

The lack of a proper amount of combustion air can lead to serious

→

furnace operational problems. Some of these problems are:

1. Excessive oil burner after drip and oil fumes.

2. Sooting.

3. Melted oil burner couplings and/or ignitor/relay control.

4. A condition where air band or air shutter settings must be
more open than normal to achieve proper combustion.

2. In parallel airflow applications, dampers must be provided
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 a means to prevent operation of either
cooling unit or furnace unless damper is in full cool or heat
position.

I. PRE-INSTALLATION VENT SYSTEM INSPECTION

Before furnace is installed, it is highly recommended that any
existing vent system be completely inspected.

For any chimney or vent, this should include the following:

1. Inspection for any deterioration in chimney or vent. If
deterioration is discovered, chimney must be repaired or
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 vent if previously used for venting a
solid fuel burning appliance or fireplace.

4. Confirming that all unused chimney or vent connections are
properly sealed.

5. Verification that chimney is properly lined and sized per the
applicable codes. (Refer to list of codes in Safety Consid­erations section.)

II. MASONRY CHIMNEY

This furnace can be vented into an existing masonry chimney. This
furnace must not be vented into a chimney servicing a solid fuel
burning appliance. Before venting furnace into a chimney, the
chimney MUST be checked for deterioration and repaired if
necessary. The chimney must be properly lined and sized per local
or national codes.

If furnace is vented into a common chimney, the chimney must be
of sufficient area to accommodate the total flue products of all
appliances vented into chimney.

The following requirements are provided for a safe venting
system:

1. Be sure that chimney flue is clear of any dirt or debris.

2. Be sure that chimney is not servicing an open fireplace.

→

3. Never reduce pipe size below minimum certified furnace
pipe size as shown in Table 2.

TABLE 2—MINIMUM CERTIFIED FURNACE PIPE SIZE

(IN.)

UNIT SIZE MINIMUM PIPE DIAMETER

060155 6

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 have at least 1/4-in. per
ft of upward slope.

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 must extend 3 ft above highest point where it
passes through the 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 be extended at least 5 ft above highest
connected equipment flue collar.

DOOR IS SECURED IN PLACE.

Installation of furnace is now complete and operational checkout
may be performed.

I. START-UP

1. Check wiring against wiring diagram shown in Fig. 7.

2. Open valve on oil supply line.

3. Reset primary control.

4. Set thermostat above room temperature.

5. Set main electrical switch to ON position. Burner should
start.

DO NOT TAMPER WITH UNIT OR CONTROLS—CALL
YOUR SERVICE TECHNICIAN.

II. RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION PRACTICES AND
COMBUSTION CHECK

In order to obtain optimum performance from oil burner, the
following setup procedures must be followed:

1. A test kit (Bacharach No. 5022 kit or equivalent) to measure
smoke, stack draft, over-fire draft, CO
tures MUST be used in order to obtain proper air band
setting. Although all of the above measurements are re­quired for optimum setup and efficiency data, the most
important readings that must be taken are smoke number,
over-fire draft, and stack draft.

2. The proper smoke number has been established by engi­neering tests to be between 0 and 1. This degree of smoke
emission is commonly referred to as a "Trace" of smoke. It
is recommended to use a Bacharach true spot smoke test set
or equivalent.

3. In order to ensure proper draft through furnace, a baromet­ric draft regulator (supplied with furnace) must be installed
as close to outlet of furnace as possible.

→

In order for this device to function properly, barometric
damper must be mounted with hinge pins horizontal and
face of damper vertical. (See instructions included with
damper.) The draft regulator should be adjusted after
furnace has been firing for at least 10 minutes, and stack
draft should be measured and set between -0.025 and -0.035
in. wc. The draft should be checked with a Bacharach MZF
draft gage or equivalent.

4. The over-fire draft, which is taken through hole provided in
observation door, is a measurement necessary to determine
if there is a blockage between oil burner and flue outlet.

There should be a pressure drop of between 0.005 and 0.015
in. wc through furnace. This would set the range of the
over-fire draft between -0.01 and -0.03 in. wc. A reading
above -0.01 in. wc (for example +0.1 in. wc) would indicate
that furnace is in an extremely high-pressure condition in
primary section. This condition may be caused by excessive
combustion air due to air band being too wide open or a lack
of flue draft (chimney effect) or some other blockage, such
as soot, in secondary section of heat exchanger.

5. The CO
obtain data required to determine thermal efficiency of
furnace.

6. An oil filter should be installed as close to burner as
possible with ALL oil burners and is essential on lower
firing rate burners. We recommend the use of a low
pressure drop oil filter such as the General Filter, Inc. model
#1A-25A or equivalent. It is critical that oil capacity be
equivalent or greater than fuel pump gear capacity. For a
2-pipe system, this is 25 gph.

7. The oil pressure regulator is factory set to give nozzle oil
pressures of 100 psig. The firing rate noted on nameplate
may be obtained with "standard" nozzles by adjusting pump
pressure as noted in Table 4 or on label on furnace.

On a new installation, air entrapped in oil line leading from
tank to nozzle must be thoroughly purged in order to
prevent excessive after drip. The oil pump is provided with
a special fitting which allows purging of any air between
tank and oil pump. The proper procedure for performing
this operation is as follows:

a. Place a piece of clear plastic 1/4-in. diameter tubing over

b. Start oil burner, then open purge fitting and allow burner

and stack temperature instruments enable you to

III. FAN ADJUSTMENT CHECK

This furnace is equipped with a 3-speed direct-drive motor to
deliver a temperature rise (between return and supply plenums)
within range specified on rating plate at external duct static
pressure noted on rating plate.

CAUTION: When operating furnace in heating mode,
static pressure and temperature rise (supply-air tempera­ture minus return-air temperature) must be within those
limits specified on rating label. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to severe furnace damage.

VIII. CONSTANT BLOWER SWITCH

This furnace is equipped with a constant low-speed blower option.
Whenever room thermostat is not calling for heating or cooling,
blower runs on low speed in order to provide air circulation. If
constant blower option is not desired, the rocker switch on side of
control box may be used to turn off constant speed.

I. GENERAL

→

In order to keep this furnace in good operating condition and to
maintain its warranty, the furnace MUST be serviced on an annual
basis. This servicing includes a nozzle change, a burner inspection,
a visual check of tube passages through flue outlet and cleanout
ports, and a visual inspection of combustion chamber when burner
is removed.

Depending on above inspection, service could also include a
cleaning and vacuuming of heat exchanger tubes and possibly the
heat exchanger drum section.

Removal of any heat exchanger components which are sealed by
gaskets requires replacement of gasket.

WARNING: Failure to replace any heat exchanger gas­kets with new gaskets when any heat exchanger plates or
covers are removed could lead to heat exchanger leakage,
sooting, and/or a hazardous condition capable of causing
bodily harm.

This furnace should never be operated without an air filter.
Disposable filters should be replaced at least once a year. If
equipped to provide cooling, filters should be replaced a minimum
of twice a year. Permanent filters should be cleaned at least twice
a year.

ALWAYS KEEP MAIN OIL VALVE TURNED OFF IF
BURNER IS SHUT DOWN FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF
TIME.

II. OIL BURNER

Contact your service technician for service.
Lubricate burner motor with SAE 10 oil. Once each year, pour 2

teaspoons of oil slowly into each oil cup.
To maintain proper performance, oil burner nozzle must be

replaced once a year.

—6—

The procedure for nozzle installation and/or replacement is out­lined in oil burner instruction manual which came with furnace.
For ease of maintenance, the oiling procedure for burner motor, as
outlined in burner manual, should be performed at this time.

After replacement of nozzle, burner should be adjusted in accor­dance with Combustion Check section of this instruction.

III. HEAT EXCHANGER AND FLUE PIPE

Ordinarily, it is not necessary to clean heat exchanger or flue pipe
every year, but it is necessary to have your service technician
check unit before each heating season to determine whether
cleaning or replacement of parts is required.

A. Cleaning Secondary Heat Exchanger Tubes and
Flue Pipe Only

If cleaning of only the secondary heat exchanger tubes and flue
pipe is necessary, the following steps should be performed:

1. Turn off all oil and electrical supplies upstream of furnace.

CAUTION: If furnace has been in operation, some
surfaces may be hot. Allow time for unit to cool down.

2. Disconnect flue pipe.

3. For access to cleanout ports, remove blower door and filter.
The 2 cleanout ports are located in blower compartment.
They protrude through the partition and are located on the
left and right of flue pipe. (See Fig. 2.)

4. Unscrew wing clamp nuts and remove cleanout port covers.
This allows access to tubes. (See Fig. 2.)

V. KEEPING FILTERS CLEAN

WARNING: Never operate unit without a filter or with

filter access door removed. Failure to adhere to this
warning could lead to a hazardous condition which could
lead to equipment damage and bodily harm.

As a homeowner, keeping filters clean is your most important
responsibility. A dirty filter reduces efficiency of your system,
causes erratic performance of controls, and could result in damage
to motor or heating element.

1. Inspect filters at regular intervals depending upon dirt
conditions. For new homes, check filters every week for 4
consecutive weeks. In all cases, inspect filters at least every
3 to 4 weeks when system is in constant operation. Replace
or clean filter at least at beginning of each season (heating
and cooling) and thereafter as needed.

2. If a permanent filter is used, it can be cleaned with cold
water and soap.

Be sure that filter is thoroughly dry before installing back into
furnace.

I. HERE’S HOW YOUR HEATING SYSTEM WORKS

The furnace operates automatically. It is controlled by a thermostat
which you set at the temperature most comfortable to you. When
the inside temperature drops below this setting, your thermostat
will turn on heating system.

When thermostat calls for heat, power from transformer energizes
fan control board. The fan control energizes ignition control. The
ignition control lights burner automatically.

The electronic fan control automatically turns on blower after 30
sec. Fan on control is not adjustable. The air which is moved over
heat exchanger by the blower is warmed and passes through ducts
to room registers.

When thermostat is satisfied, the circuit is de-energized and
primary control shuts off burner. The blower continues to run until
selectable fan off time period has expired.

The heat sensing switch performs as furnace high-temperature
limit switch. If furnace overheats for any reason, the limit switch
opens, breaking circuit to burner. The blower motor is energized,
and as unit cools, the limit switch closes. This relights burner, but
unless overheating condition is corrected, furnace will cycle on
limit.

→

This unit is equipped with an interrupted ignition electronic
control. If main burner does not ignite within 30 sec from call for
heat, the control locks out. The red button on top of control must
be depressed for 3 sec in order to reset control. The control
CANNOT be reset from room thermostat.

II. PREPARING YOUR FURNACE FOR OPERATION
