SafetyRules
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 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 help alert 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 Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Standard for Single and Multiple Station
Carbon Monoxide Alarms, ANSl/UL 2034 or the CSA 6.19-01 Residential Carbon Alarming Devices installed and
maintained in the building or dwelling concurrently with the gas-fired furnace 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 bodily injury, death, and/or property damage. Therefore, in order to alert people of potentially dangerous fire or smoke, you should have fire
extinguisher and smoke alarms listed by 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.
44001 105006
2,
Do not use this unit if any part has been under water.
Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the unit and to replace any part of the control system and any gas
control which has been under water.
3. Never obstruct the vent grilles, or any ducts that provide air to the unit. Air must be provided for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases.
FrozenWaterPipeHazard
WATER DAMAGE TO PROPERTY HAZARD Failure to follow this caution 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 water damage.
If the structure wilt be unattended during cold weather you should take these precautions.
2. Installation
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.
-or-
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.
-or-
3,
Install a reliable remote sensing device that will notify somebody of freezing conditions within the home.
WinterShutdown
If you go away during the winter months and do not leave the heat on in your home, the plastic transition box and the condensate trap on the furnace must be protected from freeze damage.(See Figure 10 through Figure 17)
1. Disconnect the 5/8"(15.9mm) 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 5/8" (15.9mm) OD rubber hose to the stub on the vent drain fitting. Secure with the hose clamp.
2. Disconnect the 3/4" (19.1mm) 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 3/4" (19.1mm) OD rubber hose to the stub on the condensate trap. Secure with the
hose clamp.
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 follow this warning could result in
personal injury or death. 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-
tion Air Check in Gas Vent Installation section. This
furnace MUST be vented to the outside.
Location and Clearances
1. Refer to Figure1 for typical installation and basic connecting parts required. Refer to Figure 4 for typical horizontal direct vent installation and basic connecting parts required. Supply and return air plenums and duct are also required.

Contaminated Combustion Air.
InstallationRequirements
5,
Maintain clearance for fire safety and servicing. A front clearance of 24"(609.6mm) required and 30" (762mm)
recommended for access to the burner, controls and filter. See clearance requirements in Figure 2.
6.
Use a raised base if the floor is damp or wet at times.
7.
Residential garage installations require:
Burners and ignition sources installed at least 18" above the
floor.
Furnace must be located or physically protected from possible damage by a vehicle.
8.
If the furnace is to be suspended from the floor joists in a basement or a crawl space or the rafters in an attic, it is necessary to use steel pipe straps or an angle iron frame to
attach the furnace. 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.
9,
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
wiring, 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 rotlout 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.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury and/or death.
Do NOT install this furnace in DOWNFLOW ap- plications.

2.
This furnace is NOT to be used for temporary heat of buildings or structures under construction.
3.
Install the vent pipes as short as practical. (See Gas Vent Installation section).
4.
Do NOT install furnace directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring.
Clean outside air is provided for combustion. This is to minimize 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
maintained between 55° F (13° C) and 80° F (27° C), with no evening 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.
After construction is complete, verify furnace operating
conditions including ignition, input rate, temperature rise and venting according to these instructions.

Proper leveling of the furnace must be provided to insure proper drainage of the condensate from the furnace. The furnace must be level to within 1/4" (6.4mm) from front to back and from side to side
for upflow installations or top to bottom for horizontal installations.
Ventand CombustionAir Connections
For venting information literature, call 931.270.4100 with the complete model and serial number of the furnace.
Special Venting Requirements for Installations in Canada Installation in Canada must conform to the requirements of CSA
B149 code. Vent systems must be composed of pipe, fittings, cements, and primers listed to ULC S636. The special vent
fittings and accessory concentric vent termination kits and
accessory external drain trap have been certified to ULC S636
for use with those IPEX PVC vent components which have
been certified to this standard. In Canada, the primer and cement must be of the same manufacturer as the vent system -
IPEX System 636, PVC/CPVC Primer, Purple Violet for Flue Gas Venting and IPEX System 636(1) ,M,PVC Cement for Flue
Gas Venting, rated Class IIA, 65 deg C. must be used with this venting system - do not mix primers and cements from one manufacturer with a vent system from a different manufacturer. Follow the manufacturer's instructions in the use of primer and cement and never use primer or cement beyond its expiration
date.
The safe operation, as defined by ULC S636, of the vent
system is based on following these installation instructions, the vent system manufacturer's installation instructions, and proper use of primer and cement. All fire stop and roof flashing used with this system must be UL listed material. Acceptability under Canadian standard CSA B149 is dependent upon full compliance with all installation instructions. Under this
standard, it is recommended that the vent system be checked once a year by qualified service personnel.
The authority having jurisdiction (gas inspection authority,

Combining spaces in different stories. The volumes of spaces on different stories shall be considered as communicating spaces where such spaces are connected by one or more openings in doors or floors having a total minimum free area
of 2 in.2/1,000 BTUH (44 cm2/kW) of total input rating of all appliances.
An attic or crawl space may be considered a space that freely communicates with the outdoors provided there are adequate
ventilation openings directly to outdoors. Openings MUST remain 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 (5.5cm2/kW) of total input rating for all gas appliances in the space.
In spaces that use the Indoor Combustion Air Method, infiltration 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
Outdoor Combustion 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 walt-ceiling joints, between wall panels, at penetrations for plumbing, electrical and gas lines, etc.
VentilationAir
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 wilt not condense excessively in the heat exchanger. Excessive condensation wilt shorten the life of the heat
exchanger and possibly void your warranty.

appliance connected to the venting system being placed into operation, could result in carbon
monoxide poisoning or death:
The following steps shall 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 Propane Installation Code and these instructions. Deter-
mine 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 summer
exhaust 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 hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burn-
er 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
accordance 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.

3. Loosely assemble all venting parts without adhesive (pipe joint cement) for correct fit before final assembly.
4. Furnace shall be installed so as to prevent the accumulation of condensate.
5. Use of ventical piping is preferred because there will be some moisture in the flue gases that may condense as it
leaves the vent pipe (See Instructions For Horizontal
Vents).
6. The vertical vent pipe MUST be 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 1/4" per foot (6.4mm
per 304.8 mm) of run is 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 tess 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 minimum vent length is 5' (1.5m) of PVC.
13. 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: In NO case can the piping be run in a chase where temperatures can exceed 140 ° F(60°C). or where radiated heat from adjacent surfaces would exceed 140 ° F(60°C).
14. The vent outlet MUST be installed to terminate in the same atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet.
15. The vent system can be installed in an existing unused chimney provided that:
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 ONLY the piping protrudes.
The termination clearances shown in Figure 7 & Figure 8 are maintained.
16. 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.
CombustionAirandVent PipingInsulation Guidelines
NOTE: Use closed ceil, neoprene insulation or equivalent. If Fiberglass or equivalent insulation is used it must have a vapor barrier. Use R values of 7 up to 10' (3.1m), R-11 if exposure
exceeds 10' (3.1m). If Fiberglass insulation is used, exterior to the structure, the pipe MUST be boxed in and sealed against moisture.
14
44001 105006
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
1. When the vent or combustion air pipe height above the roof exceeds 30" (76.2mm), 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.
SizingCombustionAir andVent Pipe
Consult Table3 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. Two 45 °
elbows can be substituted for one 90 ° elbow. The elbow or elbows used for vent termination outside the structure ARE counted, including elbows needed to bring termination above expected
snow levels. The elbow inside the furnace on the *9UHX IS NOT included in the count.

A vent shall not terminate above a sidewalk or paved driveway that is located between two single family dwellings and serves both dwellings.
Notes:
1.
The vent for this appliance shall not terminate a. Over public walkways; or
b. Near soffit vents or crawl space vents or other areas where condensate or vapor could create a nusaince or hazard or proper_ damage; or
c. Where condensate vapor could cause damage or could be detrimental to the operation of regulators, relief valves, or other equipment.
2.
When locating vent terminations, consideration must be given to prevailing winds, location, and other conditions which may cause recirculation of the combustion products of adjacent vents.
Recirculation can cause poor combustion, inlet condensate problems, and accelerated corrosion of the heat exchangers.
3.
Avoid venting under a deck or large overhang. Recirculation could occur and cause performance or system problems.
