A
General Operation
Models covered by this manual come with a new 4-wire communicating PCB. When paired with a compatible communicating indoor unit and a CTK01AA communicating thermostat, these models can support 4-wire communication protocol and provide more troubleshooting information. These
models are also backward compatible with the legacy thermostat wiring.
The GCVC9, GCVC95, GMVC95, AMVC95, ACVC9 and
ACVC95 furnaces are equipped with an electronic ignition
device to light the burners and an induced draft blower to
exhaust combustion products.
An interlock switch prevents furnace operation if the blower
door is not in place. Keep the blower access doors in place
except for inspection and maintenance.
These furnaces are also equipped with a self-diagnosing electronic control module. In the event a furnace component is
not operating properly, the control module's dual 7-segment
LED's will display an alpha-numeric code, depending upon
the problem encountered. These LED's may be viewed
through the observation window in the blower access door.
Refer to the Troubleshooting Chart for further explanation of
the LED codes and Abnormal Operation - Integrated Igni-tion Control section in the Service Instructions for an explanation of the possible problem.
The rated heating capacity of the furnace should be greater
than or equal to the total heat loss of the area to be heated.
The total heat loss should be calculated by an approved
method or in accordance with “ASHRAE Guide” or “Manual
J-Load Calculations” published by the Air Conditioning Contractors of America.

Location Considerations
•The furnace should be as centralized as is practical
with respect to the air distribution system.
•Do not install the furnace directly on carpeting, tile, or
combustible material other than wood flooring.
•When suspending the furnace from rafters or joists,
use 3/8" threaded rod and 2” x 2” x 1/8” angle as
shown in the Installation and Service Instructions. The
length of the rod will depend on the application and
clearance necessary.
•When installed in a residential garage, the furnace
must be positioned so the burners and ignition source
are located not less than 18 inches (457 mm) above
the floor and protected from physical damage by vehicles.
Notes:
1. Installer must supply one or two PVC pipes: one for combustion air (optional) and one for the flue outlet (required).
Vent pipe must be either 2” or 3” in diameter, depending
upon furnace input, number of elbows, length of run and
installation (1 or 2 pipes). The optional Combustion Air
Pipe is dependent on installation/code requirements and
must be 2” or 3” diameter PVC.
2. Line voltage wiring can enter through the right or left side
of the furnace. Low voltage wiring can enter through the
right or left side of furnace.
3. Conversion kits for propane gas and high altitude natural
and propane gas operation are available. See High Altitude Derate chart for details.
4. Installer must supply the following gas line fittings, depending on which entrance is used:
Left -- Two 90° Elbows, one close nipple, straight pipe
Right -- Straight pipe to reach gas valve.

High Altitude Derate
When this furnace is installed at high altitude, the appropriate High Altitude orifice kit must be installed. This is re-

PRODUCT DESIGN
quired due to the natural reduction in the density of both the
gas fuel and combustion air as altitude increases. The kit
will provide the proper design certified input rate within the
specified altitude range.
High altitude kits are purchased according to the installation altitude and usage of either natural or propane gas. Refer
to the chart above for a tabular listing of appropriate altitude
ranges and corresponding manufacturer’s high altitude Natural Gas and Propane Gas kits. For a tabular listing of appropriate altitude ranges and corresponding manufacturer's High
Altitude Pressure Switch kits, refer to either the Pressure
Switch Trip Points & Usage Chart in this manual or the Accessory Charts in Service Instructions.
Single Stage Thermostat
A single-stage thermostat with only one heating stage may
be used to control this furnace. The application of a singlestage thermostat does not offer “true” thermostat-driven twostage operation, but provides a timed transition from low to
high fire. The furnace will run on low stage for a fixed period
of time before stepping up to high stage to satisfy the
thermostat’s call for heat. The delay period prior to stepping
up can be set at either a fixed 5 minute time delay or a load
based variable time between 1 and 12 minutes (AUTO mode).
If the AUTOmode is selected, the control averages the cycle
times of the previous three cycles and uses the average to
determine the time to transition from low stage to high stage.
To use a single-stage thermostat, turn off power to the furnace, move the thermostat selection DIP switch to the OFF
position. Set the desired transition time by setting the transition delay DIP switch to the desired ON/OFF position. Turn
power back on. Refer to the following figure.
