HEATING A COOLING
Downflow Gas-Fired Natural-Draft Furnaces
Installation, Start-Up and Service
Instructions
NOTE: Read the entire instructions before starting the
installation.
NOTE: The Energy Guide tag can be removed from the fur
nace when the installation is complete.
INTRODUCTION
Before installing the furnace, refer to “Procedures for
Natural-Draft Gas-Fired Furnaces” (packaged with the
equipment) for information concerning combustion, venting,
piping, and other standard installation practices. Further
reference is made to the current edition of the National Fuel
Gas Code NFPA No. 54, T1A-54-1984-1/ANSI Z223.1-1984,
Z223.1a-1987.
Each furnace is shipped from the factory completely assem
bled with multispeed direct-drive blower and wired ready for
downflow indoor heating installation only. AU sizes feature
a printed-circuit board control center with easy-to-read, lowvoltage terminal strip to ensure proper connections.
A CAUTION
Do not install furnace in a damp, corrosive, or contami
nated atmosphere. Make sure all combustion and circu
lating air requirements listed in “Procedures for
Natural-Draft Gas-Fired Furnaces” are adhered to, 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 installèd. If
the furnace is required during construction, use clean
outside air for combustion and ventilation. Compoxmds
of chlorine and fluorine when burned with combustion
air form acids which will cause corrosion of the heat
exchangers and metal vent system. Some of these com
pounds are paneling and dry wall adhesives, paints,
thinners, masonry cleaning materials, and many other
solvents commonly used in the construction process.
The design of the downflow gas-flred furnace is A.G.A. cer
tified for installation on noncombustible flooring. The fur
nace may be installed on combustible flooring when
installed with the accessory floor base. This furnace is for
installation in alcoves, basements, closets, or utility rooms.
This furnace line is not A.G.A. design certified for installa
tion in a mobile home, recreation vehicle, or outdoors.

A WARNING
The cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken
ground according to National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70-1987, or local codes to minimize personal
injury if an electrical fault should occur. This may con
sist of electrical wire or conduit approved for electrical
ground when installed in accordance with existing elec
trical codes. Do not use gas piping as an electrical
ground. A failure to adhere to this warning can result in
an electrical shock, fire, or death.
If line-voltage wiring to the unit is encased in a nonmetallic
sheath, connect the incoming ground wire to the grounding
wire inside the furnace J-box. If metallic conduit is used, it
will serve as the ground.
B. Low-Voltage Wiring
Make field low-voltage connections at the low-voltage termi
nal strip. See Fig. 9.
NOTE: Use AWG No. 18 “color-coded” copper thermostat
wire for lengths up to 100 ft. Above 100 ft, use AWG No. 16
wire.

Base Installed on a Combustible Floor
VI. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A. Line-Voltage Wiring
NOTE: Refer to “Procedures for Natural-Draft Gas Fur
naces” (packaged with the equipment) for additional
information.
A CAUTION
Do not connect aluminum wire between disconnect
switch and furnace.
See Fig. 9 for wiring diagram showing the proper field high-
and low-voltage wiring.
Use a separate fused branch electrical circuit containing a
properly sized fuse or HACR-type circuit breaker for this
furnace. A disconnecting means must be located within
sight from, and readily accessible to, the furnace. In some
areas, the unit door switch may qualify as the disconnecting
means.
