SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock,

or other conditions which may cause death, personal injury, or property damage. Consult a qualified installer, service agency, or

your distributor or branch for information or assistance. The qualified installer or agency must use factory-authorized kits or accessories when modifying this product. Refer to the individual

instructions packaged with the kits or accessories when installing. Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses, protective clothing,

and work gloves. Use quenching cloth for brazing operations. Have fire extinguisher available. Read these instructions thoroughly and follow all warnings or cautions included in

literature and attached to the unit. Consult local building codes, the current editions of the National Fuel Gas Code (NFCG) NFPA

54/ANSI Z223.1, National Electrical Code (NEC) NFPA 70. In Canada refer to the current editions of the National standards

of Canada CAN/CSA-B149.1 and .2 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes, and Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1.

Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol /_ . When you see this symbol on the unit and in instructions or

manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand these signal words; DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION. These

words are used with the safety-alert symbol. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal

injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards which could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe

practices which may result in minor personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight suggestions

which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, or operation.

General Information

This kit is for conversion of furnaces equipped with Honeywell VR8205S Series single stage gas valves certified for use with Natural Gas (and so

marked) to units functionally the same as the certified furnace for use with Propane Gas, Before the furnace can be operated with Propane Gas, the low pressure switch must be installed. A gas valve conversion

kit must be installed and main burner orifices must be replaced with ori- fices in this kit or with properly sized orifices for high altitude (or- dered separately),

FIRE, EXPLOSION, ELECTRIC SHOCK, AND CAR- BON MONOXIDE HAZARD.

This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service technician in accordance with the Manufac-

turer's instructions and all applicable codes and re-

quirements of the authority having jurisdiction. If

the information in these instructions is not followed

exactly, a fire, an explosion or production of carbon monoxide could result causing property damage,

personal injury or loss of life. The qualified service agency is responsible for the proper installation of

this kit. The installation is not proper and complete

until the operation of the converted appliance is checked as specified in the manufacturer's instruc-

tions supplied with the kit.

The orifices provided in this kit are stamped to indicate the size (twist drill number) and are sized for commercially pure propane gas ONLY. DO NOT use them with butane or a mixture of butane and

propane gas. The parts list specifies the size orifices supplied in the kit. Compare the size marking on the orifices with the sizes as listed in the parts list. Make sure you have the correct main burner orifices.

Extreme care is used to assure that this kit contains the proper orifices. Oversized orifices could result in hazardous

conditions, especially if the venting is inadequate. For that reason, we recommend that the installer check the size of the orifice

with a new twist drill of the correct size. This procedure assures that the orifices provided are the correct size.

Installation

Tighten the orifices so they are seated and gas fight about 11/8"

(28.6mm) from the face ofthe orifice to the back ofthe manifold pipe (Figure 2). Make sure orifice is installed straight so that it forms a right angle (90°) to the manifold.

ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD.

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death, equipment damage, and/or

property damage.

Turn OFF gas supply at manual gas valve before turning OFF electric power supply and starting

conversion.

Turn OFF electric power supply at disconnect switch or service panel before starting

conversion. Tag and lockout shutoff(s) with appro- priate device warning labels. There may be more

than one disconnect.

Disassembly

Refer to Figure 1 and the following steps.

1. After disconnecting power and gas supply to the furnace, remove the access door, exposing gas valve and burner compartment.

2. Disconnect gas line from gas valve so manifold assembly can be removed.

3. Disconnect wiring at gas valve. Be sure to note the proper location of any and all electrical wiring disconnected.

4. Remove the four (4) screws holding the manifold and gas valve to the manifold supports. Do not discard any screws.

5. Carefully remove the manifold assembly.

High Altitude Installation

Gas input rate on the furnace rating plate is for installation at up to 2000' (609.6m). The #55 burner orifices supplied in this kit are sized

for Propane Gas at full rate ONLY, for use between 0-2000' (0 -

609.6m) elevation. Do not use them above 2000' (609.6m) except when noted by Table 1. Orifices for conversion at high altitude must

be ordered from Service Parts.

In the USA, derating of these furnaces at 2% (Natural Gas) and 4% (Propane Gas) has been tested and design-certified

by CSA.

1- In Canada, the input rating must be derated 5% (Natural Gas)

and 10% (Propane Gas) for altitudes of 2,000 to 4,500 (609.6 to1371.6m) above sea level. Use the 2001 to 3000 (609.9 to

914.4m) column in Table 1.

Main Burner Orifices

Remove the Natural gas (typically black) burner orifices from the manifold assembly and replace them with the appropriate Propane (silver) orifices furnished in the conversion kit unless converting a high altitude unit, then see Table 1 for appropriate orifices. (Figure 2)
