CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Special Warning for Installation of Furnace or Air Handling Units in
Enclosed Areas such as Garages, Utility Rooms or Parking Areas
Carbon monoxide producing devices (such as an automobile, space
heater, gas water heater, etc.) should not be operated in enclosed areas
such as unventilated garages, utility rooms or parking areas because of
the danger of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning resulting from the exhaust
emissions. If a furnace or air handler is ins tal led in an enclosed area such
as a garage, utility room or parking area and a carbon monoxide producing
device is operated therein, there must be adequate, direct outside
ventilation.
This ventilation is necessary to avo id the da ng er o f C O poisoning which
can occur if a carbon monoxide producing device continues to operate in
the enclosed area. Carbon monoxide emissions can be (re)circulated
throughout the structure if the furnace or air handler is operating in any
mode.
CO can cause serious illness including permanent brain damage or death.

FURNACE AREA.
OST HOMES REQUIRE OUTSIDE AIR BE SUPPLIED INTO THE
M
Improved construction and additional insulation in buildings have
reduced heat loss by reducing air infiltration and escape around
doors and windows. These changes have helped in reducing
heating/cooling costs but have created a problem supplying
combustion and ventilation air for gas fired and other fuel burning
appliances. Appliances that pull air out of the house (clothes dryers,
exhaust fans, fireplaces, etc.) increase the problem by starving
appliances for air.
House depressurization can cause back drafting or improper
combustion of gas-fired appliances, thereby exposing building
occupants to gas combustion products that could include carbon
monoxide.
If this furnace is to be installed in the same space with other gas
appliances, such as a water heater, ensure there is an adequate
supply of combustion and ventilation air for the other appliances.
Refer to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code NFP A 54/
ANSI Z223.1 (Section 5.3), or CAN/CSA B149 Installation Codes
(Sections 7.2, 7.3, or 7.4), or applicable provisions of the local
building codes for determining the combustion air requirements for
the appliances.
This furnace must use indoor air for combustion. It cannot be
installed as a direct vent (i.e., sealed combustion) furnace.
Most homes will require outside air be supplied to the furnace area
by means of ventilation grilles or ducts connecting directly to the
outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors such as attics or crawl
spaces.
The following information on air for combustion and ventilation is
reproduced from the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1 Section 5.3.
5.3.1 General:
(a) The provisions of 5.3 apply to gas utilization equipment
installed in buildings and which require air for combustion,
ventilation and dilution of flue gases from within the building.
They do not apply to (1) direct vent equipment which is
constructed and installed so that all air for combustion is
obtained from the outside atmosphere and all flue gases are
discharged to the outside atmosphere, or (2) enclosed
furnaces which incorporate an integral total enclosure and
use only outside air for combustion and dilution of flue gases.
(b) Equipment shall be installed in a location in which the facilities
for ventilation permit satisfactory combustion of gas, proper
venting and the maintenance of ambient temperature at safe
limits under normal conditions of use. Equipment shall be
located so as not to interfere with proper circulation of air.
When normal infiltration does not provide the necessary air,
outside air shall be introduced.
(e) While all forms of building construction cannot be covered
in detail, air for combustion, ventilation and dilution of flue
gases for gas utilization equipment vented by natural draft
normally may be obtained by application of one of the
methods covered in 5.3.3 and 5.3.4.
(f) Air requirements for the 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.
5.3.2 Equipment Located in Unconfined Spaces:
In unconfined spaces (see definition below) in buildings,
infiltration may be adequate to provide air for combustion
ventilation and dilution of flue gases. However, in buildings
of tight construction (for example, weather stripping, heavily
insulated, caulked, vapor barrier, etc.), additional air may
need to be provided using the methods described in 5.3.3b or 5.3.4.
Space, Unconfined.
For purposes of this Code, a space whose volume is not
less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour of the
aggregate input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. Rooms communicating directly with the space in
which the appliances are installed through openings not
furnished with doors, are considered a part of the unconfined
space.
5.3.3 Equipment Located in Confined Spaces:
(a) All Air from Inside the Building: The confined space shall be
provided with two permanent openings communicating
directly with an additional room(s) of sufficient volume so
that the combined volume of all spaces meets the criteria
for an unconfined space. The total input of all gas utilization
equipment installed in the combined space shall be
considered in making this determination. Each opening shall
have a minimum free area of 1 square inch per 1,000 BTU
per hour of the total input rating of all gas utilization
equipment in the confined space, but not less than 100
square inches. One opening shall be within 12 inches of the
top and one within 12 inches of the bottom of the enclosure.
NOTE: Each opening must have
a free area of not less than one
square inch per 1000 BTU of
the total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure, but not
less than 100 square inches.

the vent system does not have to be “gas tight.” NOTE: Gas
furnaces with induced draft blowers draw products of combustion
through a heat exchanger allowing, in some instances, common
venting with natural draft appliances (i.e. water heaters).
All installations must be vented in accordance with National Fuel
Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition. In Canada, the
furnaces must be vented in accordance with the National Standard

VII. EXTERIOR MASONRY CHIMNEYS -
CATEGORY I FURNACES ONLY
An exterior masonry chimney is defined as a “Masonry chimney
exposed to the outdoors on one or more sides below the roof
line.” The ability to use a clay lined masonry chimney depends
on a parameter not associated with interior chimneys. This variable
is the geographic location of the installation. Researchers have
discovered that the winter design temperatures have a direct
impact on the suitability of this type of venting. In most situations,
the existing masonry chimneys will require a properly sized metallic
liner.
This inspection is based upon a draft topical report, “Masonry
Chimney Inspection and Relining”, issued by the Gas Research
Institute. While not yet finalized, we believe this report represents
the best information on this subject which is currently available.

CHECK 1 - PROPERCHIMNEYTERMINATION.
A masonry chimney used as a vent for gas fired equipment must
extend at least three feet above the highest point where it passes
through the roof. It must extend at least two feet higher than any
portion of a building within a horizontal distance of 10 feet. In
addition, the chimney must terminate at least 3 feet above any
forced air inlet located within 10 feet. The chimney must extend at
least five feet above the highest connected equipment draft hood
outlet or flue collar.
If the chimney does not meet these termination requirements, but
all other requirements in the checklist can be met, it may be
possible for a mason to extend the chimney. If this will not be
practical, see Fix 1.

THISCHIMNEYCHANNEL
INTO
Solid fuel appliances include fireplaces, wood stoves, coal furnaces,
and incinerators.
Liquid fuel appliances include oil furnaces, oil-fired boilers and oilfired water heaters.
Appliances which burn propane (sometimes referred to as LP
(liquefied petroleum)) gas are considered gas-fired appliances.
CHECK 3 - CHIMNEY CROWN CONDITION.
Damage from condensate usually shows up first in the crown. If
any of the following trouble signs are present, the condition of the
crown is not satisfactory:
a) Crown leaning
b) Bricks missing
c) Mortar missing
d) Tile liner cracked
e) No tile liner
f) Salt staining at mortar joints. (White stains, and mortar
becomes sandy and/or erodes.)
For problems a, b, or c, see Fix 3. If problems d, e, or f are present,
see Fix 4. IMPORTANT: It may be necessary to follow both Fix 3
and Fix 4.
CHECK 4 - DEBRISIN CLEANOUT
A cleanout (dropleg) must be present such that the upper edge of
the cleanout cover is at least 12 inches below the lower edge of
the lowest chimney inlet opening.
A chimney without a cleanout could become partially blocked by
debris. If no cleanout is present, the chimney must be refined (Fix
4). Remove the cleanout cover, and examine the cleanout for
debris. If significant amounts of any of the following are found:
• Fuel oil residue
• Bricks
• Mortar or sand
• Pieces of the tile liner
• Rusted pieces of the metallic liner - reline the chimney (Fix
4).
CHECK 5 - LINERCONDITION.
If a metal liner is present, it must be checked. It cannot be assumed
that all existing metal liners are correctly installed and in good
condition.
Remove the lowest existing vent connector, and examine the inside
of the elbow or tee at the base of the liner. A small amount of soot
may be considered acceptable, provided the installer vacuums it
away. If rusted pieces of the liner have collected here, the metal
liner must be removed and replaced (Fix 4).
Next, gently tap the inside of the liner with a Phillips screwdriver. If
the screwdriver perforates the liner, or if the t apping does not sound
like metal hitting metal, the liner must be removed and replaced
(Fix 4).
Remember that all appliances must be vented inside the liner.
Venting one appliance inside the liner and another appliance out side
the liner is not acceptable.
Next, use a flashlight and small mirror to sight up the liner. B vent
must be supported so as to not come into direct contact with the
chimney walls or tile liner. If it is not, it can probably be rehung so
as to be acceptable. A thimble or fire stop may be helpful here.
Flexible liners should be hung straight or nearly straight. If it is
spiraled in the chimney and in good condition, it should be rehung.
To do this, break the top seal; pull up and cut off the excess liner
length, and refit the top seal. Use caution when doing this, as the
cut edges of flexible liners may be sharp.
The surfaces of the liner must be physically sound. If gaps or holes
are present, the metal liner must be removed and replaced (Fix 4).
Finally, confirm that the metal liner is the correct size for the
appliances to be installed. Use the GAMA tables and rules.
IO-247A 12/04
12
If a metal liner is not present, a clay tile liner must be present, or
the chimney must be lined (Fix 4).
Use a flashlight and small mirror at the cleanout or vent connector
to inspect the clay tile liner. If any of the following problems are
present:
• Tile sections misaligned
• Tile sections missing
• Gaps between tile sections
• Signs of condensate drainage at the cleanout or vent
connectors
• Mortar protruding from between tile sections
• Use of sewer pipe or drainage pipe rather than an approved
fire clay tile reline the chimney (Fix 4).
Next, measure the size of the liner. It may be possible to do this
from the cleanout. The liner must be at least as large as the
minimum size established by the tables in National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition and in the National S tandard
of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA B149.2 - latest
editions and amendments. If the liner is too small or too large,
then the chimney must be relined (Fix 4).
CHECK 6 - DILUTION AIR.
If gas-fired appliances are to be vented into a clay tile liner, a
source of dilution air is required.
Dilution air cannot be obtained through:
• Induced draft appliances
• Natural draft appliances with vent dampers
Sufficient dilution air can ordinarily be obtained through the draft
hood of a natural draft appliance only if the appliance’s vent
connector does not include a vent damper. If dilution air will not
be available, the chimney must be relined (Fix 4).
CHECK 7 - COMPLETETHE INSTALLATION.
If Checks 1 through 6 have been satisfactory, and the liner is an
acceptable size as determined by the tables in National Fuel Gas
Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition and in the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA B149.2 latest editions and amendments, then the clay tile liner can
probably be used as a vent for the gas appliances. However, the
installer must keep in mind the following factors which may render
the tile liner unsuitable for use as a vent:
• Extremely cold weather
• Long vent connectors
• Masonry chimneys with no air gap between the liner and
the bricks. (In practice, this can be difficult to detect.)
• Exterior chimneys (The tables in National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition and in the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA
B149.2 - latest editions and amendments assume interior
chimneys.)
If, in the judgment of the local gas utility, installer, and/or local
codes; one or more of the above factors is likely to present a
problem, the chimney must be relined (Fix 4).
FIX 1 - LINERTERMINATION
Any cap or roof assembly used with a liner must be approved by
the liner manufacturer for such use. The liner and cap/roof
assembly must then terminate above the roof in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
In some cases, a shorter extension above the roof may be possible
with a liner than would be required with a masonry chimney.
For further information on relining, see Fix 4.
FIX 2 -CHANGEVENTINGARRANGEMENTS
If the masonry chimney has more than one channel, it may be
possible to vent the gas appliances into one channel and vent the
solid or liquid fuel appliance(s) into another channel(s). Do not
vent an 80+ Furnace inside of a metal liner with other appliances
vented outside the liner.
Alternatively , the homeowner may agree to discontinue use of the
fireplace (solid fuel appliance). If so, the tile liner must be cleaned
to remove creosote buildup. The fireplace opening must then be
permanently sealed.
If oil-fired appliance(s) are being replaced by gas-fired
appliance(s), the tile liner must first be cleaned to remove the fuel
oil residue.
If none of the above options is practical, the furnace may need to
be vented vertically with a B Vent.
Under some conditions, Furnace *9 could be installed rather than
an *8. The * 9 can be vented horizontally or vertically through
PVC pipe.
FIX 3 - REBUILDTHECROWN
If the chimney crown is damaged, a qualified mason must repair it
in accordance with nationally recognized building codes or
standards. One such standard which may be referenced is the
Standard for Chimneys, Fireplaces, V ent s, and Solid Fuel Burning
Appliances, ANSI/NFP A 211.
FIX 4 - RELINING
Relining options include B vent and flexible liners.
If the chimney has diagonal offsets, B vent probably cannot be
used.
If B vent is to be used, it must be supported adequately . Supports
(such as fire stops or thimbles) must be used to prevent the B
vent from coming into direct contact with the tile liner or chimney
walls. Direct contact would result in higher heat loss, with an
increased possibility of poor venting system performance.
It is not acceptable to vent one appliance inside the B vent and
other appliances outside. The excess space between the B vent
and the chimney walls must be covered at the top of the chimney
by a weatherproof, corrosion resistant flashing.
The B vent should then be topped with a listed vent cap. The
listed vent cap will, when installed per the manufacturer’s
instructions, prevent problems due to rain, birds, or wind effects.
A B-vent installed as described in this section is considered to be
an enclosed vent system, and the sizing tables in National Fuel
Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition and in the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA B149.2 latest editions and amendments may be used.
If a flexible liner is to be used, it must be made of the proper
materials:
• For most residential applications, an aluminum liner should
be acceptable.
• If the combustion air supplied to the furnace will be
contaminated with compounds containing chlorine or
fluorine, a liner of AL294C stainless steel should be used.
Common sources of chlorine and fluorine compounds
IO-247A 12/04
13
include indoor swimming pools and chlorine bleaches, paint
strippers, adhesives, paints, varnishes, sealers, waxes
(which are not yet dried) and solvents used during
construction and remodeling. Various commercial and
industrial processes may also be sources of chlorine/
fluorine compounds.
• Heavier gauge 300 and 400 series stainless steel liners
were developed for use with oil or solid fuel appliances.
They are not suitable for use with gas-fired appliances.
Flexible liners specifically intended and tested for gas
applications are listed in the UL “Gas and Oil Equipment
Directory”. (UL Standard 1777).
For sizing of flexible liners, see Note 22 and the tables in the
National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition
and in the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and
CAN/CSA B149.2 - latest editions and amendments.
To install the liner, read and follow the liner manufacturer’s
instructions and your local codes. Excess liner length should be
pulled out of the chimney and cut off. Use caution when doing
this, as the cut edges of flexible liners may be sharp. Do not spiral
excess liner inside of the chimney. Support the liner as
recommended by the liner manufacturer.
Some manufacturers of flexible liners offer an insulation sleeve
designed to be added to the liner before it is installed in the
chimney . (Poured insulation, either vermiculite or other materials,
is no longer recommended.) Insulation will need to be added to
the flexible liner if:
• It is required by the liner manufacturer’s instructions.
• The previous liner was properly sized and installed, and
suffered from condensation damage.
• It is required by your local building codes.
Even if none of those three conditions exist which require additional
liner insulation, the installer may wish to consider it if:
• The local climate is very cold.
• The chimney is very tall.
• The vent connectors used are very long or have a large
number of elbows.
• Local experience indicates that flexible liners installed
without insulation are likely to have condensation problems.
Insulation must be selected and installed in accordance with the
liner manufacturer’s instructions.
Finally, cap the chimney and terminate the liner in accordance
with the liner manufacturer’s instructions.

The anticipator setting will be .4 amps.
SINGLE-STAGE THERMOSTAT APPLICATION
A single-stage thermost at with only one heating stage can be used
to control this furnace. The application of a single-stage thermostat
does not offer “true” thermostat-driven two-stage 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 5 or 10 minutes
through the DIP switch adjacent to the Heat Off delay DIP switches
on the integrated control module. T o use a single-stage thermost at,
turn off power to the furnace, move the thermostat selection jumper
on the integrated control module from the “two-stage” position to
the “single-stage” position, turn power back on. Refer to the

24 VOLT DEHUMIDISTAT WIRING
The optional usage of a dehumidistat allows the furnace’s circulator
blower to operate at a slightly lower speed during a combined
thermostat call for cooling and dehumidistat call for
dehumidification. This lower blower speed enhances
dehumidification of the conditioned air as it passes through the
AC coil. For proper function, a dehumidistat applied to this furnace
must operate on 24 VAC and utilize a switch which opens on
humidity rise.
To install/connect a dehumidistat:
1. Turn OFF power to furnace.
2. Secure the dehumidistat neutral wire (typically the white
lead) to the screw terminal marked “DEHUM” on the furnace
integrated control module.

IX. GAS SUPPL Y AND PIPING
GENERAL
The furnace rating plate includes the approved furnace gas input
rating and gas types. The furnace must be equipped to operate
on the type of gas applied. This includes any conversion kits
required for alternate fuels and/or high altitude.
CAUTION
O PREVENT UNRELIABLE OPERATION OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE, THE INLE T
T
GAS SUPPLY PRESSURE MUST BE AS SPECIFIED ON THE UNIT RATING PLATE
WITH ALL OTHER HOUSEHOLD GAS FIRED APPLIANCES O PERATING.
Inlet gas supply pressures must be maintained within the ranges
specified in the following table. The supply pressure must be
constant and available with all other household gas fired
appliances operating. The minimum gas supply pressure must
be maintained to prevent unreliable ignition. The maximum must
not be exceeded to prevent unit overfiring.
NOTE: Adjusting the minimum supply pressure below the limits
in the above table could lead to unreliable ignition. Gas input to
the burners must not exceed the rated input shown on the rating
plate. Overfiring of the furnace can result in premature heat
exchanger failure. Gas pressures in excess of 13 inches water
column can also cause permanent damage to the gas valve.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The furnace will naturally derate itself with
altitude. Do not attempt to increase the firing rate by changing
orifices or increasing the manifold pressure. This can cause poor
combustion and equipment failure.
At all altitudes, the manifold pressure must be within 0.3 inches
w.c. of that listed in the Product Data Book applicable to your
model* for the fuel used. At all altitudes and with either fuel, the
air temperature rise must be within the range listed on the furnace
nameplate. Should this appliance be converted to LP, refer to the
instructions included in the factory authorized LP conversion kit
LPT-03B .
HIGH ALTITUDE DERATE
When this furnace is installed at high altitude, the appropriate
High Altitude orifice kit must be applied. The furnace is supplied
with orifices sized for natural gas at altitudes up to 2,000 feet
using a heating value of approximately 1,000 Btu/hr, and should
not normally require change. If for use at altitudes in excess of
2,000 feet, refer to the instructions included in the factory
authorized high altitude kit (HA-02).
It is important to check and adjust the input rate of the furnace to
prevent an overfiring situation. Overfiring can cause premature
heat exchanger failure. The input is controlled by the supply
pressure, orifice size, manifold pressure and heating (calorific)
value of the gas.
The supply pressure must be measured with this and all other
gas burning appliances in operation. The supply pressure must
be adjusted to the pressure range stated on the series and rating
plate. Applications for altitudes in excess of 2,000 feet usually
require an orifice change. The orifices must be selected using the
table below. The furnace derate is 4% for each 1,000 feet above
sea level. This table is based upon a heating value of approximately
1,000 Btu/ft
The input to the furnace must be checked AFTER reorificing.
For altitudes above 7,000 feet, refer to appropriate section of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. To calculate the input of
the furnace for installations in altitudes over 2,000 - 7,000 feet,
use the following formula:
Corrected Input = Series & Rating Plate Input - (Altitude X .04) X
(Series & Rating Plate Input / 1000)
Example:
Corrected input for a 90,000 Btu/hr. appliance installed at an
altitude of 6,000 ft. utilizing natural gas with a heating value of

Corrected Input = 68,400
Using the orifices sized as shown in the table for 6,000 feet (#45),
a meter time of 52.6 seconds is measured. The actual firing rate
of the furnace is
Input = 1,000 (heating value of the gas) X 3600 (constant) / 52.6

In Canada, the series and rating plate input for the furnace apply
to installations up to 2,000 feet (610m) above sea level. Kit HA-02
for natural and LP gases is required to convert furnaces from
elevations of 2,000 to 4,500 feet (610m to 1,370m). Canadian
certification applies to the installations of up to 4,500 feet above
sea level. Installations above 4,500 feet are subject to acceptance
by the local authorities having jurisdiction.
Do not derate the furnace by adjusting the manifold pressure to a
lower pressure than specified on the furnace rating plate. The
combination of the lower air density and a lower manifold pressure
will prohibit the burner orifice from drawing the proper amount of
air into the burner. This may cause incomplete combustion,
flashback, and possible yellow tipping.
In some areas the gas supplier may artificially derate the gas in an
effort to compensate for the effects of altitude. If the gas is artificially
derated, the appropriate orifice size must be determined based
upon the BTU/ft
3
content of the derated gas and the altitude. Refer
to the National Fuel Gas Code, NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, and
information provided by the gas supplier to determine the proper
orifice size.
A different pressure switch may be required at high altitude
regardless of the BTU/ft3 content of the fuel used. Contact your
distributor for a tabular listing of appropriate altitude ranges and
corresponding manufacturer’s pressure switch kits.

Maintaining proper gas pressure depends on three main factors:
1. Vaporization rate, depending on temperature of the liquid,
and “wetted surface” area of the container or containers.
2. Proper pressure regulation. (Two-stage regulation is
recommended for both cost and efficiency).
3. Pressure drop in lines between regulators, and between
second stage regulator and the appliance. Pipe size will
depend on length of pipe run and total load of all
appliances.
Complete information regarding tank sizing for vaporization,
recommended regulator settings, and pipe sizing is available from
most regulator manufacturers and propane gas suppliers.
Since propane gas will quickly dissolve white lead and most

air or draft when a central return is used, a connecting duct must
be installed between the unit and the utility room wall. A room,
closet, or alcove must not be used as a return air chamber.
When the furnace is used in connection with a cooling unit, the
furnace should be installed in parallel with or on the upstream side
of the cooling unit to avoid condensation in the heating element.
With a parallel flow arrangement, the dampers or other means used
to control the flow of air must be adequate to prevent chilled air
from entering the furnace and, if manually operated, must be
equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless the
damper is in the full heat or cool position.
When the furnace is installed without a cooling coil, it is
recommended that a removable access panel be provided in the
outlet air duct. This opening shall be accessible when the furnace
is installed and shall be of such a size that the heat exchanger can
be viewed for visual light inspection or such that a sampling probe
can be inserted into the airstream. The access panel must be made
to prevent air leaks when the furnace is in operation.
When the furnace is heating, the temperature of the return air
entering the furnace must be between 55°F and 100°F.
When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air circulated

FILTERS - READ THIS SECTION BEFORE INSTALLING THE
RETURN AIR DUCTWORK
Filters must be used with this furnace. Discuss filter maintenance
with the building owner. Filters do not ship with this furnace, but
must be provided by the installer. Filters must comply with UL900
or CAN/ULCS1 11 standards. If the furnace is installed without filters,
the warranty will be voided.
NOTE: An undersized opening will cause reduced airflow.
For air delivery of less than 1800 CFM, use a one side or bottom
return. For air delivery of 1800 CFM or higher, use either twosided returns or a one-sided return with a bottom return. Refer to
Minimum Filter Area tables at the end of this manual to determine
filter area requirements.
UPRIGHT INSTALLATIONS
Depending on the installation and/or customer preference,
differing filter arrangements can be applied. Filters can be
installed in the central return register or a side panel external filter
rack kit (upflows), or the ductwork above a counterflow furnace. As
an alternative, a media air filter or electronic air cleaner can be
used as the requested filter. The following figures show possible
filter locations.
CIRCULATION AIR FILTERS
One of the most common causes of a problem in a forced air heating
system is a blocked or dirty filter. Circulating air filters must be
inspected monthly for dirt accumulation and replaced if necessary .
Failure to maintain clean filters can cause premature heat
exchanger failure.
A new home may require more frequent replacement until all
construction dust and dirt is removed. Circulating air filters are to
be installed in the return air duct external to the furnace cabinet.

GAS INPUT RATE MEASUREMENT (NATURAL GAS ONLY)
The gas input rate to the furnace must never be greater than that
specified on the unit rating plate. To measure natural gas input
using the gas meter, use the following procedure.
1. Turn OFF the gas supply to all other gas-burning appliances
except the furnace.
2. While the furnace is operating, time and record one complete
revolution of the smallest gas meter dial.

3. Calculate the number of seconds per cubic foot (sec/ ft
gas being delivered to the furnace. If the dial is a one cubic
foot dial, divide the number of seconds recorded in step 2
by one. If the dial is a two cubic foot dial, divide the number
of seconds recorded in step 2 by two.
4. Calculate the furnace input in BTUs per hour (BTU/ hr). Input
equals the sum of the installation’s gas heating value and a
conversion factor (hours to seconds) divided by the number
of seconds per cubic foot. The measured input must not be
greater than the input indicated on the unit rating plate.
EXAMPLE:
Installation’s gas heating (HTG) value: 1,000 BTU/ft
(Obtained from gas supplier)
Installation’s seconds per cubic foot: 34 sec/ ft
3
Conversion Factor (hours to seconds): 3600 sec/hr
Input = (Htg. value x 3600) ÷ seconds per cubic foot
Input = (1,000 BTU/ft3 x 3600 sec/hr) ÷ 34 sec/ ft
Input = 106,000 BTU/hr
This measured input must not be greater than the input
indicated on the unit rating plate.

TEMPERATURE RISE
Air temperature rise is the temperature difference between supply
and return air. The proper amount of temperature rise is usually
obtained when the unit is operated at the rated input with the “as
shipped” blower speed. If the correct amount of temperature rise
is not obtained, it may be necessary to change the blower speed.
An incorrect temperature rise can cause condensing in or
overheating of the heat exchanger. Determine and adjust the
temperature rise as follows. The temperature rise must be within
the range specified on the rating plate or Product Data Book
applicable to your model*.

blinks once for each 100 CFM of airflow.
1. Determine the tonnage of the cooling system installed with
the furnace. If the cooling capacity is in BTU/hr divide it by
12,000 to convert capacity to TONs.
Example: Cooling Capacity of 30,000 BTU/hr.
30,000/12,000 = 2.5 Tons
2. Determine the proper air flow for the cooling system. Most
cooling systems are designed to work with air flows between
350 and 450 CFM per ton. Most manufacturers recommend
an air flow of about 400 CFM per ton.
Example: 2.5 tons X 400 CFM per ton = 1000 CFM
The cooling system manufacturer’s instructions must be checked
for required air flow. Any electronic air cleaners or other devices
may require specific air flows, consult installation instructions of
those devices for requirements.
3. Knowing the furnace model, locate the high stage cooling
air flow charts in the Product Data Book applicable to your
model* . Look up the cooling air flow determined in step 2
and find the required cooling speed and adjustment setting.
Example:A 70 kBtu furnace is to be installed with a 2.5
ton air conditioning system. The air flow
needed is 1000 CFM. Using the cooling speed
chart for the 70 kBtu furnace, find the airflow
closest to 1000 CFM. A cooling airflow of 990
CFM can be attained by setting the cooling
speed to “C” and the adjustment to “-” (minus).

AUXILIARY LIMIT CONTROL
A uto reset limits are located on or near the blower. To access this
auxiliary limit, disconnect the electrical power and remove the blower
door. If the limit control opens, the air circulation blower will run
continuously. The diagnostic light will flash one time. The auxiliary
limit control is designed to prevent furnace operation in case of
main blower failure on horizontal and counterflow installations. It
may also open if the power supply is interrupted while the furnace
is firing. The auxiliary limit control is suitable for both horizontal
right and horizontal left installations. Regardless of airflow direction,
it does not need to be relocated.
PRIMARY LIMIT
The primary limit control guards against overheating resulting from
insufficient conditioned air passing over the heat exchanger . If the
primary limit control does not function during this test, the cause
must be determined and corrected. Function of this control should
be verified by gradually blocking the furnace return air after the
furnace has been operating (burners firing) for approximately ten
minutes. Check the control as follows:
1. Allow the furnace to operate with burners firing continuously
for approximately ten minutes.
2. Gradually block the return air to furnace. Remove airflow
blockage when limit control is activated and turns off burners.
Airflow blockage causes unit overheating and will produce
the following reactions:
• The gas valve to close and extinguish flame,
• The induced draft blower to be de-energized after a fifteen
second postpurge, and
• The circulator blower to remain energized continuously until
limit control resets.
3. Remove the return air blockage to clear overheating
condition. After an acceptable temperature is reached
during the cool down period, the limit control will reset and
allow the furnace to resume normal operation.

XIII. SAFETY CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
IMPORTANT NOTE: This unit must not be used as a construction
heater during the finishing phases of construction of a new structure.
This type of use may result in premature failure due to extremely
low return air temperatures and exposure to corrosive or very dirty
atmospheres.
These checks establish that the primoary limit control is functioning
and will respond to a restriction in the return air, or a circulator
blower failure. If the primary limit control does not function during
this test, the cause must be determined and corrected.
GENERAL
A number of safety circuit s are employed to ensure safe and proper
furnace operation. These circuits serve to control any potential
safety hazards and serve as inputs in the monitoring and diagnosis
of abnormal function. These circuits are continuously monitored
during furnace operation by the integrated control module.
INTEGRATED CONTROL MODULE
The integrated control module is an electronic device which controls
all furnace operations. Responding to the thermostat, the module
initiates and controls normal furnace operation, and monitors and
addresses all safety circuits. If a potential safety concern is
detected, the module will take the necessary precautions and
provide diagnostic information through an LED.
PRIMARY LIMIT
The primary limit control is located on the partition panel and
monitors heat exchanger compartment temperatures. It is an
automatic reset, temperature sensor. The limit guards against the
overheating as a resulting of insufficient air passing over the heat
exchanger.
AUXILIARY LIMIT
The auxiliary limit control is located either on or near the circulator
blower and monitors heat exchanger compartment temperatures.
The control is a temperature sensor. It guards against overheating
resulting from insufficient air passing over the heat exchanger.
ROLLOUT LIMITS
The rollout limit controls are mounted on the burner/manifold
assembly and monitor the burner flame. They are manual-reset,
temperature sensors. This limit guards against burner flames not
being properly drawn into the heat exchanger.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
The pressure switches are normally-open, negative air pressureactivated switches. They monitor the airflow (combustion air and
flue products) through the heat exchanger via pressure taps located
on the induced draft blower. These switches guard against
insufficient airflow (combustion air and flue products) through the
heat exchanger.
FLAME SENSOR
The flame sensor is a probe mounted to the burner/manifold
assembly which uses the principle of flame rectification to
determine the presence or absence of flame.

XV . TROUBLESHOOTING
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
NOTE: Discharge body’s static electricity before touching unit. An
electrostatic discharge can adversely affect electrical components.
Use the following precautions during furnace installation and
servicing to protect the integrated control module from damage.
By putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the same
electrostatic potential, these steps will help avoid exposing the
integrated control module to electrostatic discharge. This procedure
is applicable to both installed and uninstalled (ungrounded)
furnaces.
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the
integrated control module or any wire connected to the
control prior to discharging your body’s electrostatic charge
to ground.
2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnace
away from the control. Any tools held in a person’s hand
during grounding will be discharged.
3. Service integrated control module or connecting wiring
following the discharge process in step 2. Use caution not
to recharge your body with static electricity; (i.e., do not move
or shuffle your feet, do not touch ungrounded objects, etc.).
If you come in contact with an ungrounded object, repeat
step 2 before touching control or wires.
4. Discharge your body to ground before removing a new
control from its container. Follow steps 1 through 3 if
installing the control on a furnace. Return any old or new
controls to their containers before touching any ungrounded
object.

RESETTING FROM LOCKOUT
Furnace lockout results when a furnace is unable to achieve ignition
after three attempts, or when it has lost flame five times during a
single call for heat. It is characterized by a non-functioning furnace
and a one flash diagnostic LED code from the red LED. If the
furnace is in “lockout”, it will (or can be) reset in any of the following
ways.
1. Automatic reset. The integrated control module will
automatically reset itself and attempt to resume normal
operations following a one hour lockout period.
2. Manual power interruption. Interrupt 115 volt power to the
furnace for 0 - 20 seconds.
3. Manual thermostat cycle. Lower the thermostat so that
there is no longer a call for heat for 0 -20 seconds then
reset to previous setting.
NOTE: If the condition which originally caused the lockout still
exists, the control will return to lockout. Refer to the Diagnostic
Chart for aid in determining the cause.
XVI. MAINTENANCE
A return air filter is not supplied with this furnace; however, there
must be a means of filtering all of the return air. The installer will
supply filter(s) at the time of installation.
FILTER MAINTENANCE
Improper filter maintenance is the most common cause of
inadequate heating or cooling performance. Filters should be
cleaned (permanent) or replaced (disposable) every two months
or as required. When replacing a filter, it must be replaced with a
filter of the same type and size.
Become familiar with filter location and procedures for removal,
cleaning and replacing them. If help is needed, contact the installer
of the furnace or a qualified servicer.
FILTER REMOVAL
Depending on the installation, differing filter arrangements can be
applied. Filters can be installed in either the central return register
or a side panel external filter rack (upflow only). A media air filter or
electronic air cleaner can be used as an alternate filter. Follow the
filter sizes given in the Recommended Minimum Filter size table to
ensure proper unit performance.
To remove filters from an external filter rack in an upright upflow
installation, follow the directions provided with external filter rack
kit. To remove internal filters see Internal Filter Removal section.
Internal filters are an accessory item and are not included with
your furnace. For further details, see your distributor.

UPRIGHT FILTER REMOVAL
To remove filters from an external filter rack in an upright upflow
installation, follow the directions provided with external filter rack
kit.
Clean, wash and dry a permanent filter. When using a metal filter,
both sides should be sprayed with a dust adhesive as recommended
on adhesive container. Spray adhesives for use with permanent
metal filters can be found at some hardware stores. BE SURE
AIRFLOW DIRECTION ARROW POINTS TOWARDS THE
BLOWER.
Inspect filter. If your dirty filter is the disposable type, replace dirty
with the same type and size filter. If your dirty filter is a permanent
metal filter, clean as follows:
• Wash, rinse, and dry the permanent filters. Both sides should
then be sprayed with a filter adhesive as is recommended
on the adhesive container. Many hardware stores stock
spray adhesives for use with permanent filters.
• If badly torn or uncleanable, these filters must be replaced
by equal size permanent, high velocity filters. Throwaway
filters must not be used as replacement for permanent filters.
Under normal use, permanent filters should last for several
years.
INDUCED DRAFTAND CIRCULATOR BLOWER MOTORS
The bearings in the induced draft blower and circulator blower
motors are permanently lubricated by the manufacturer. No further
lubrication is required. Check motor windings for accumulation of
dust which may cause overheating. Clean as necessary.
FLAME SENSOR (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)
Under some conditions, the fuel or air supply can create a nearly
invisible coating on the flame sensor. This coating acts as an
insulator causing a drop in the flame sense signal. If the flame
sense signal drops too low the furnace will not sense flame and
will lock out. The flame sensor should be carefully cleaned by a
qualified servicer using emery cloth or steel wool. Following
cleaning, the flame sense signal should be as indicated in the
Specifications Sheet.
IGNITER (QUALIFIED SERVICER ONLY)
If the igniter and the surrounding air are at about 70°F and the
igniter wires are not connected to any other electrical components,
the resistance of the igniter should not exceed 200 ohms. If it does,
the igniter should be replaced.
BURNERS
WARNING
O PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, DO NOT REMOVE ANY INTERNAL
T
COMPARTMENT COVERS OR ATTEMPT ANY ADJUSTMENT.
COMPONENTS ARE CONTAINED IN BOTH COMPARTMENTS.
QUALIFIED SERVICE AGENT AT ONCE IF AN ABNORMAL FLAME APPEARANCE
SHOULD DEVELOP.
Periodically during the heating season make a visual check of the
burner flames. Turn the furnace on at the thermostat. Wait a few
minutes, since any dislodged dust will alter the normal flame
appearance. Flames should be stable, quiet, soft and blue with
slightly orange tips. They should not be yellow . They should extend
directly outward from the burner ports without curling downward,
floating or lifting off the ports.
CLEANING (QUALIFIED SERVICER O NLY)
1. Shut off electric power and gas supply to the furnace.
2. Remove screws securing manifold to burner bracket.
Slightly pull manifold out and away from burner bracket.
Burners will drop. Re-secure manifold to burner bracket.
3. Tilt burners to slotted side of burner bracket. Rotate burners
clockwise to remove.
4. Use bottle brush to clean burner insert and inside of burner.
5. Replace burner (opposite of removal). Ensure burners are
fully seated on burner bracket tabs and are properly aligned.
6. Turn on electric power and gas supply to the furnace.
7. Check furnace for proper operation. Refer to “OperationalChecks” section to verify burner flame characteristics.
