Safety Rules
Your unit is built to provide many years of safe and dependable
service providing it is properly installed and maintained. However,
abuse and/or improper use can shorten the life of the unit and
create hazards for you, the owner.
A. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission encourages
installation of carbon monoxide alarms. There can be various
sources of carbon monoxide in a building or dwelling. The
sources could be gas--fired clothes dryers, gas cooking
stoves, water heaters, furnaces, gas--fired fireplaces, wood
fireplaces.
Carbon monoxide can cause serious bodily injury and/or
death. Carbon monoxide or “CO” is a colorless and odorless
gas produced when fuel is not burned completely or when the
flame does not receive sufficient oxygen.
Therefore, to helpalert people of potentially dangerous carbon
monoxide levels, you should have a commercially available
carbon monoxide alarm that is listed by a nationally recognized testing agency in accordance with UnderwritersLaboratories Inc. Standard for Single and Multiple Station Carbon
Monoxide Alarms, ANSI/UL 2034 or the CSA 6.19--01 Residential Carbon Alarming Devices installed and maintained in
the building ordwelling concurrently with the gas--firedfurnace
installation (see Note below). The alarm should be installed as
recommended by the alarm manufacturer’s installation instructions.
B. There can be numerous sources of fire or smoke in a building
or dwelling. Fire or smoke can cause serious bodily injury,
death, and/or property damage. Therefore, in order to alert
people of potentiallydangerous fire orsmoke, you should have
fire extinguisher andsmoke alarms listedby Underwriters Laboratories installed and maintained in the building or dwelling
(see Note below).
Note: The manufacturer of your furnace does not test any alarms
and makes no representations regarding any brand or type
of alarms.
C. To ensure safe and efficient operation of your unit, you should
do the following:
1. Thoroughly read this manual and labels on the unit. This
will help you understand how your unit operates and the hazards involved with gas and electricity.
2. Do not use this unit if any part has been under water. Im-
mediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the unit
and to replace anypart of the control system and any gas control which has been under water.
3. Never obstruct the vent grilles,or any ducts that provideair to the unit. Air must be provided for proper combustion
and ventilation of flue gases.

Frozen Water Pipe Hazard
!
WATER DAMAGE TO PROPERTY HAZARD
FaiIure to protect against the risk of freezing may
result in property damage.
Do not leave your home unattended for long periods
during freezing weather without turning off water
supply and draining water pipes or otherwise
protecting against the risk of frozen pipes and
resultant damage.
Your furnace is designed solely to provide a safe and comfortable
living environment. The furnace is NOT designed to ensure that
water pipes will not freeze. It is equipped with several safety devices that are designed to turn the furnace off and prevent it from
restarting in the event of various potentially unsafe conditions.
If your furnace remains off for an extended time, the pipes in your
home could freeze and burst, resulting in serious water damage.
If the structure will be unattended during cold weather you should
take these precautions.
1. Turn off the water supply to the structure and drain the water
lines if possible and add an antifreeze for potable water to
drain traps and toilet tanks. Open faucets in appropriate
areas.
CAUTION
-- o r --
2. Have someone check the structure frequently during cold
weather to make sure it is warm enough to prevent pipes
from freezing. Instruct them on a service agency to call to
provide service, if required.
-- o r --
3. Install a reliable remote sensing device that will notify somebody of freezing conditions within the home.
Winter Shutdown
If you go away during the winter months and do not leave the heat
on in your home,the plastic transition box and the condensatetrap
on the furnace must be protected from freeze damage.(SeeFigure 9 trough Figure 18)
1. Disconnect the5/8² OD rubber hose from the vent drain fitting that is located downstream of the combustion blower.
Insert a funnel into the hose and pour four(4) ounces of sanitary type (RV) antifreeze into the condensate trap. Reconnect the
fitting. Secure with the hose clamp.
2. Disconnect the3/4² OD rubber hose from the condensate
trap. Insert a funnel into the hose and and pour four(4)
ounces of sanitary type (RV) antifreeze into the plastic Transition box. Squeeze the hose together near the end and
quickly reconnect the
condensate trap. Secure with the hose c lamp.
When you return home, your furnace will be ready to start, as it is
not necessary to drain the antifreeze from the furnace.

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to properly vent this furnace or other
appliances could result in death or personal injury.
This furnace can NOT be common vented or
connected to any type B, BW or L vent or vent
connector, nor to any portion of a factory--built or
masonry chimney. If this furnace is replacing a
previously common-vented furnace, it may be
necessary to resize the existing vent and chimney
to prevent oversizing problems for the other
remaining appliance(s). See Venting and Combus-tionAirCheckin the 5.Combusion&VentilationAir
section. This furnace MUST be vented to the
outside.
Installation Positions
This furnace can be installed in an upflow, horizontal (either left or
right) or downflow airflow position. DO NOT install this furnace on
its back. For the upflow position, the return air ductwork can be attached to either the left or right side panel and/or the bottom. For
horizontal and downflow positions, the return air ductwork must be
attached to the bottom. The return air ductwork must never be attached to the back of the furnace.
WARNING
Location and Clearances
1. Refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2 for typical installation and
basic connecting parts required. Refer to Figure 3 for typical horizontal direct vent installation and basic connecting
parts required. Supply and return air plenums and duct are
also required.
2. If furnace is a replacement, it is usually best to install the furnace where the old one was. Choose the location or evaluate the existinglocation based uponthe minimum clearance
and furnace dimensions (Figure 4 ).
!
FROZEN AND BURST WATER PIPE HAZARD
FaiIure to protect against the risk of freezing may
result in property damage.
Special precautions MUST be made if installing
furnace in an area which may drop below freezing.
This can cause improper operation or damage to
equipment. If furnace environment hasthe potential
of freezing, the drain trap and drainline must be
protected. The use of electric heat tape or RV

Installation Requirements
1. Install furnace level.
2. This furnace is NOT to be used for temporary heat of build-
ings or structures under construction.
3. Install furnace as centralized as practical with respect to the
heat distribution system.
4. Install the vent pipes as short as practical, and in accor-
dance to these instructions. (See Vent and CombustionAir Piping section).
5. Maintain clearance for fire safety and servicing. A front
clearance of 24² is required for access to the burner, controls and filter. See clearance requirements in Figure 4.
6. Use a raised base for upflow furnace if the floor is damp or
wetattimes.
7. For downflow installations, non combustible subbase must
be used under the furnace unless installation is on a non
combustible floor surface. This requirement applies even
when a coil box or cabinet is used.
8. For horizontal installations, line contact is permissible only
between lines formed by intersection of back and two sides
of furnace jacket, and building joists, studs or framing.
9. Residential garage installations require:
·Burners and ignition sources installed at least 18² above
the floor.
·Located or physically protected from possible damage by
a vehicle.
10. Local codes may require a drain pan under the entire furnace and condensate trap when the furnace is installed in
attic application.
This furnace may be used for construction heat provided that all
the following conditions are met:
·The furnace is permanently installed with all electrical wir-
ing, piping, venting and ducting installed according to these
installation instructions. A return air duct is provided,sealed
to the furnace casing, and terminated outside the space
containing the furnace. This prevents a negative pressure
condition as created by the circulating air blower, causing a
flame rollout and/or drawing combustion products into the
structure.
·The furnace is controlled by a thermostat. It may not be “hot
wired” to provide heat continuously to the structure without
thermostatic control.
·Clean outside air is provided for combustion. This is to mini-
mize the corrosive effects of adhesives, sealers and other
construction materials. It also prevents the entrainment of
drywall dust into combustion air, which can cause fouling
and plugging of furnace components.
·The temperature of the return air to the furnace is main-
tained between 55° F(13° C) and 80° F(27° C) , with no eve-
ning setback or shutdown. The use of the furnace while the
structure is under construction is deemed to be intermittent
operation per our installation instructions.
·The air temperature rise is within the rated rise range on the
furnace rating plate, and the firing rate has been set to the
rating plate value.
·The filters used to clean the circulating air during the
construction process must be either changed or thoroughly
cleaned prior to occupancy.
·The furnace, ductwork and filters are cleaned as necessary
to remove drywall dust and construction debris from all
HVAC system components after construction is completed.
·Afterconstruction is complete, verify furnace operating con-
ditions including ignition, input rate, temperature rise and
venting according to these instructions.

NOTE: 5² bottom clearance required for condensate trap.
This furnace can be installed horizontally in an attic, basement,
crawl s pace, alcove, or suspended from a ceiling in a basement or
utility room (See Figure 3). Do notinstall furnace on its back or in
the reverse airflow positions as safety control operation will be adversely affected.
If the furnace is to be suspended from the floor joists in a crawl
space or the rafters in an attic, it is necessary to use steel pipe
straps or an angle iron frame to rigidly attachthe furnace to prevent
movement. These straps should be attached to the furnace with
sheet metal screws and to the rafters or joists with bolts. The preferred method is to use an angle iron frame bolted to the rafters or
joists. (Takecaution to allowdoor panels to be removedfor maintenance)
If the furnace is to be installed in a crawl s pace, consult local
codes. A suitable concrete pad or blocks are recommended for
crawl space installation on the ground.
NOTE: 6² bottom clearance required for condensate trap.
Twenty four (24) inches between the front of the furnace and adja cent construction orother appliances MUSTbe maintainedfor ser vice clearance. (Thirty (30) inches is required to remove furnace).
Keep all insulating materials clear from louvered door. Insulating
materials may be combustible.
The horizontal furnaces may be installed directly on combustible
wood flooring or supports as long as all required furnace clearances are met. See Figure 3 .
This furnace MUST NOTbe installed directly on carpeting or tile or
other combustible material other than wood flooring or supports.

·Adjoining rooms can be considered part of a space, if there
are no closable doors between rooms.
·An attic or crawl space may be considered a space that freely
communicateswith the outdoors provided there are adequate
ventilation openings directly to outdoors. Openings MUSTremain open and NOT have any means of being closed off. Ventilation openings to outdoors MUST be at least 1 square inch
of free area per 4,000 BTUH of total input rating for all gas appliances in the space.
·Combining s paces on the same floor level. Each opening
shall have a free area of at least 1² 2/1,000 BTUH (2,000
mm2/kW) of the total input rating of all gas appliances in the
space, but not less than 100 in2 (0.06 m2). Once opening
shall commence within 12² (300 mm) of the ceiling and the
second opening shall commence within 12² (300 mm) of the
floor. The minimumdimension of air openings shall be atleast
3² (80 mm).
·Combining spaces on different floor levels. The volumes of

Btuh (4,400 mm2/kW) of total input rating of all gas appliances.
·In spaces that use the Indoor Combustion Air Method, in-
filtration should be adequate to provide air for combustion,
ventilation and dilution of flue gases. However, in buildings
with unusually tight construction, additional air MUST be provided using the methods described in section titled OutdoorCombustion Air Method:
·Unusually tight construction is defined as Construction with
1. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outdoors have a continuous, sealed vapor barrier. Openings are gasketed or
sealed and
2. Doors and openable windows are weather stripped and
3. Other openings are caulked or sealed. These include
joints around window and door frames, between sole
plates and floors, between wall--ceiling joints, between
wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical and
gas lines, etc.
Ventilation Air
Some provincial codes and local municipalities require ventilation
or make--up air be brought into the conditioned space as replacement air. Whichever method is used, the mixed return air temperature across the heat exchanger MUST not fall below 60° so that
flue gases will not condense excessively in the heat exchanger.
Excessive condensation will shorten the life of the heat exchanger
and possibly void your warranty.
Venting and Combustion Air Check
The following information is s upplied to allow the installer to make
adjustments to the setup of existing appliances, IF REQUIRED,
based on good trade practices, local codes, and good judgement
of the installer. Manufacturer does NOT take responsibility for
modifications made to existing equipment.
NOTE: If this installation replaces an existing furnace from a
commonly vented system, the original venting system may no longer be sized to properly vent the attached appliances. An improperly sized venting system may cause the formation of condensate
in the vent and the leakage or spillage of vent gases. To make sure
there is adequate combustion air for all appliances, MAKE THE
FOLLOWING CHECK.
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each
applianceconnected totheventing systembeingplaced
into operation, could result in carbon monoxide
poisoning or death:
Thefollowingstepsshall be followed for each appliance
connected to the venting system being placed into
operation, while all 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 National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and PropaneInstallationCodeand these instructions. Determine
that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion
and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. As far as 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.
4. Close fireplace dampers.
5. 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 are operating at maximum speed. Do not operate a summerexhaust
fan.
6. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being
inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat so appliance is operating continuously.
7. Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances at
the draft hoodrelief opening after5 minutesof main burner
operation. Use the flame of a match or candle. (Figure 6)
8. If improper venting is observed, during any of the above
tests, the venting system must be corrected in accor-
dance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Code.
9. 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--fired burning appliance to their previous conditions of use.

!
WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD.
Failure to properly vent this furnace could result in
death or personal injury.
Use methods described here to provide combustion
and ventilation air.
Dual Certified (*9MPT & *9MPV Models)
Direct or Non-Direct Vent
This furnace is certified as a CategoryIVfurnace. This furnace can
be installed as a direct vent furnace using outside air for combustion or the furnace can use air from inside the s tructure for combustion. The INLET air pipe is optional. If combustion air comes from
inside the structure, adequate make up air MUST be provided to
compensate for oxygen burned. See Confined Space Installa-tion in the Combustion and Ventilation Air chapter. If c ombus tion air is drawn from outside the structure, it MUST be taken from
the same atmospheric pressure zone as the vent pipe.
Contaminated Combustion Air
Installations in certain areas or types of structures will increase the
exposure to chemicals or halogens that may harm the furnace.
The following areas or types of structures may contain or have exposure to the substances listed below. The installation must be
evaluated carefully as it may be necessary to provide outside air
for combustion.
· Commercial buildings.
· Buildings with indoor pools.
· Furnaces installed in laundry rooms.
· Furnaces installed i n hobby or craft rooms.
· Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas.
· Permanent wave solutions for hair.
· Chlorinated waxes and cleaners.

5. Use of vertical piping is preferred because there will be
some moisture in the flue gases that may condense as it
leaves the vent pipe.
6. The vertical vent pipe MUSTbe supported so that no weight
is allowed to rest on the combustion blower.
7. Exhaust vent piping or air inlet piping diameter MUST NOT
be reduced.
8. All exhaust vent piping from the furnace to termination
MUST slope upwards. A minimum of
required to properly return condensate to the furnace drain
system.
9. Use DWV type long radius elbows whenever possible, as
they provide for the minimum slope on horizontal runs and
they provide less resistance in the vent system. If DWV elbows cannot be used, use two, 45° elbows when possible.
On horizontal runs the elbows can be slightly misaligned to
provide the correct slope.
10. All horizontal pipe runs MUST be supported at least every
five feet with galvanized strap or other rust resistant material. NO sags or dips are permitted.
11. All vertical pipe runs MUST be supported every six feet
where accessible.
12. The maximum pipe length is 40¢ total in the inlet or outlet
side of the system. Up to five,90° elbows can be used on the
inlet or the outlet. With the Concentric Vent TerminationKits
(NAHA001CV or NAHA002CV), the maximum pipe length
is 35¢ with490° elbows. If more elbows are required, reduce
the length of both the inlet and exhaust pipes 5¢ for each
additional elbow used. (See Table 3 or Table 4).
13. The minimum pipe run length is 2¢.
14. The piping can be run in the same chase or adjacent to supply or vent pipe for water supply or waste plumbing. It can
also be run in the same chase with a vent from another 90+
furnace.
NOTE:InNO case can the piping be run in a chase where
temperatures can exceed 140° F. or where radiated heat
from adjacent surfaces would exceed 140° F.
15. The vent outlet MUST be installed to terminate in the same
atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet.
16. The vent system can be installed in an existing unused
chimney provided that:
1
/4² per foot of run is
·Both the exhaust vent and air intake run the length of the
chimney.
·No other gas fired appliance or fireplace (solid fuel) is
vented into the chimney.
·The top of the chimney MUST be sealed flush or crowned
up to seal against rain or melting snow so ONLYthe piping
protrudes.
·The termination clearances shown in Figure 7 are main-
tained.
17. Furnace applications with vertical vents requiring vent diameter increaser fittings must have increaser fittings
installed in vertical portion of the vent. Condensate will be
trapped in the vent if the vent diameter is increased prior to
having an elbow turned upward. This could cause nuisance
tripping of the pressure switch.
Combustion Air and VentPiping Insulation
Guidelines
NOTE: Use closed cell, neoprene insulation or equivalent. If Fiberglass or equivalent insulation is used it must have a vapor barrier.
UseRvaluesof7upto10¢, R--11if exposure exceeds 10¢. If Fiber-
glass insulation is used, exterior to the structure, the pipe MUST
be boxed in and sealed against moisture.
1. When the vent or combustion air pipe height above the roof
exceeds 30², or if an exterior vertical riser is used on a horizontal vent to get above snow levels, the exterior portion
MUST be insulated.
2. When combustion air inlet piping is installed above a suspended ceiling, the pipe MUST be insulated with moisture
resistant insulation such as Armaflex or other equivalent
type of insulation.
3. Insulate combustion air inlet piping when run in warm, humid spaces.
Sizing Combustion Air and Vent Pipe
Consult Table 3 or Table 4 to select the proper diameter exhaust
and combustion air piping. Exhaust and combustion air piping is
sized for each furnace Btuh size based on total lineal vent length
(on inlet or outlet side), and number of 90° elbows required.
1. Double Pipe Installation--If installing as a direct--vent ap-
pliance, consult Table 4 to select the proper diameter exhaust and combustion air piping. Exhaust and combustion
air piping is sized for each furnace Btuh size based on total
lineal vent length (on inlet oroutlet side), and number of 90°
elbows required.
2. Single Pipe Installation--If installing as a non--direct vent
appliance, (single outlet pipe and no inlet pipe) refer to
Table 3. The table shows the maximum number of elbows
allowed with any given pipe diameter and length of run.
3. Use of Elbows--Two 45° elbows can be substituted for one
90° elbow. The elbow or elbows used for vent termination
outside the structure AREcounted, including elbows needed to bring termination above expected snow levels.

CondensateDrain Trap
This furnace removes both sensible and latent heat from the products of combustion. Removal of the latent heat results in condensation of the water vapor. The condensate is removed from the
furnace through the drains in the plastic transition and the vent fitting. The drains connect to the factory installed internally mounted
condensate drain trap on the left or right side of the furnace.
The startup of a new furnace will involve a cycle or two of the furnace to properly prime the condensate trap with water. Until the
trap is fully primed, some condensate will be pulled into the combustion blower. The furnace may cycleon the pressure switch connected to the plastic transition box due to condensate buildup.
After the trap is primed, the condensate will start draining from the
furnace. The combustion blower will clear out any remaining condensate in the blower housing through the vent fitting downstream
of the blower. Note that the condensate trap can also be primed by
pouring water into the
hose from either the gutter or the white PVC Tee Trap.Using a fun nel pour eight (8) ounces of water into
flow through the drain hose and into the condensate drain trap.
This will prime both the vent and the transition sides of the trap.Reconnect the
gutter or the PVC Tee Trap.
The condensate drain trap supplied with the furnace MUST be
used. The drain connection on the condensate drain trap is sized

and installation of the overflow.
DO NOT trap the drain line in any other location than at the condensate drain trap supplied with the furnace.
If possible, DO NOT route the drain line where it may freeze. The
drain line must terminate at an inside drain to prevent freezing of
the condensate and possible property damage.

condensate.
2. A plugged condensate drain line or a failed condensate
pump will allow condensate to spill. If thefurnace is installed
where a condensate spill could cause damage, it is recommended that an auxiliary safety switch be installed to prevent operation of the equipment in the event of pump failure
or plugged drain line. If used, an auxiliary safety switch
should be installed in the R c ircuit (low voltage) ONLY.
3. If the auxiliary switch in the condensate pump is used, the
furnace may shut down due to a blocked condensate line or
failed pump. To prevent frozen water pipes see the “Frozen
Water Pipe Hazard” section on Page 4 of this manual.

Failure to do so may result in burst water pipes,
serious property damage.
If a condensate pump is installed, a plugged
condensate drain or a failed pump may cause the
furnace to shut down. Do not leave the home
unattended during freezing weather without turning
off water supply and draining water pipes or
otherwiseprotectingagainsttheriskof frozenpipes.
Condensate Drain Trap Freeze Protection
Special precautions MUST be made if installing furnace in an area
which may drop below freezing. This can cause improper operation or damage to the equipment. If the the furnace environment
has the potential of freezing, the drain trap and drain line must be
protected. Use 3 to 6 watt per foot at 115volt, 40° F self--regulating
shielded and waterproof heat tape. Wrap the drain trap and drain
line with the heat tape and secure with the ties. Follow the heat
tape manufacturer’s recommendations. Prime the trap before furnace operation.
