NOTE: Installation MUST conform with local building codes and local plumbing and waste water codes, or inthe
absence of local codes, with codes of the country having
jurisdiction. See Appendix.
DualCertified Furnace
This furnace is dual certified. This means that the INLET
pipe is optional. See Figure "1for identification of INLET and OUTLET pipe. Combustion air can be drawn from out-
side the structure or inside the structure. If drawing com- bustion air from inside the structure, adequate make up air
MUST be provided to compensate for oxygen burned. See
Confined Space Installation in the Combustion and
Ventilation Air chapter.
LocationandClearances
1. Referto Figure 1 fortypicaldirectventornon_:lirect
vent installation and basicconnecting parts required.
Supply and return air plenums and duct are also re- quired.
2.
If furnace is a replacement, it is usually best to install
the furnace where the old one was. Choose the loca- tion or evaluate the existing location based upon the
minimum clearance and furnace dimensions (Figure 2).
Installation Requirements
1. Install furnace level.
2. This furnace is NOT to be used for temporary heat of buildings or structures under construction.
3. Install furnace as centralized as practical with re- spect to the heat distribution system.
4. Install the vent pipes as short as practical. (See Vent and Combustion Air Piping section).
5. Maintain clearance for fire safety and servicing. A front clearance of 30" (762mm) is recommended for access to the burner, controls and filter.
CAUTION
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 has the potential of
freezing, the drain trap and blower must be protected
with antifreeze. Disconnect the rubber coupling on top of furnace and pour 8 onces of sanitary type (RV) antifreeze into the vent pipe to protect the blower and drain trap from freeze damage.
Do NOT operate furnace in a contaminated
atmosphere containing chlorine, fluorine or any other damaging chemicals. Refer to Combustion &
Ventilation Air section, Contaminated Combustion
Air,
6. Use a raised base if the floor is damp or wet at times.

opening on plywood. Cut opening in the plywood.
5,
Unless existing floor is concrete, place a piece of
sheet metal on existing floor under position of open-
ing in false floor. Sheet metal should be 2 inches
wider in both directions than opening and centered
under opening.
6,
Apply silicone or butyl rubber caulking around top of frame work and install false floor. Seal around edge of false floor and any joints.
7,
Apply a bead of caulking around opening in false floor and set furnace over opening so the bottom is
sealed.
8.
Cut return air openings and box them in so they are sealed from the wall and open ONLY into the area
below the false floor and the return air opening in bot-
tom of furnace.

VentingandCombustionAir Check
NOTE: This section ofthe manual applies to this furnace IF venting as a non-direct vent (single pipe) appliance.
The following information is supp[iedto allow the installer to make adjustments to the setup ofexisting appliances, IF
NEEDED. These instructions are presented to be used for
reference ONLY IF NEEDED, based on good trade prac- tices, local codes, and good judgment of the installer.
Manufacturer does NOT take responsibility for modifica- tions made to existing equipment.
NOTE: If this installation removes an existing furnace from a venting system serving one or more other appliances,
and to make sure there is adequate combustion air for all appliances, MAKE THE FOLLOWING CHECK.
1,
Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2.
Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch to ensure there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical, close all doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appli- ance(s) remaining connected to the venting system are located and other spaces of the building.
4. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not con- nected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not oper- ate asummer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.

NOTE: Non-direct vent appliances occupying same en- closed space as furnace MUST have enough air for proper combustion and ventilation. All duct or openings for supply- ing combustion and ventilation air must comply with the gas and electrical codes of the country having jurisdiction. See Appendix.
When the installation is complete, check that all appliances have adequate combustion air and are venting properly. See Venting And Combustion Air Check in this manual.
Air Openingsand Connecting Ducts
1. Total input rating for all non direct vent gas appli- ances, includingfurnace, MUST be considered when determining free area of openings.
2. Connect ducts or openings directly to outside.
3. When screens are used to cover openings, they MUST be no less than 1/4inch(6mm) mesh.
4. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts MUST NOT be less than 3 inches(75mm).
5. When sizing grille or louver, use the free area of opening. If free area is NOT stamped or marked on grillor louver, assume a 20% free area for wood and
60% for metal.
ConfinedSpaceInstallation
NOTE: A confined space is defined as an area with less
than 50 cubic feet(1.4m 3)per 1,000 BTUH input rating for
all gas appliances installed in the area.
5. Follow the lighting instructions for each appliance be- ing inspected. Adjust thermostat so appliance(s) will operate continuously.
6. Allow 5 minutes of main burner operation, then check for spillage at the draft hood relief opening of each
appliance. Use the flame of a match or candle
(Figure 4).
7,
After it has been determined that each appliance vents properly, return doors, windows, appliances
etc. to their normal condition.
8.
If improper venting is observed, the cause MUST be
corrected using the appropriate tables in code books of country having jurisdiction. See Appendix for list-
ing of applicable codes.
Requirements
1. Provide confined space with sufficient air for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases using hori- zontal or vertical ducts or openings.
2. Figure 6, Figure 7, and Figure 8 illustrate how to provide combustionand ventilation air. A minimum of two permanent openings, one inletand one outlet,
are required.

Unconfined SpaceInstallation
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard.
Most homes will require additional air,
An unconfined space or homes with tight con- struction may not have adequate air infiltration
for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases,
Failure to supply additional air by means of venti- lation grilles or ducts could result in personal in- jury and/or death•
An unconfined space is defined as an area having a mini-
mum volume of 50 cubic feet(1.4m 3)per 1,000 Btuh total input rating for all gas appliances in area. Refer to Figu re 9
for minimum area required.
NOTE: Refer to definitions in section titled Unusually Tight Construction and the Appendix. If any one of the conditions
apply, the space MUST be considered confined space re- gardless of size.
1. Adjoining rooms can be considered part of an uncon- fined area if there are openings without doors be- tween rooms.
2,
An attic or crawlspace may be considered an uncon- fined space provided there are adequate ventilation openings directly to outdoors. Openings MUST re- main open and NOT have any means of being closed off. Ventilation openings to outdoors MUST be at
least 1 square inch(25mm 2) of free area per 4,000
BTUH of total input rating for all gas appliances in
area.
4. Air inlet MUST be screened with not less than 1/4 inch(6mm) mesh screen.
UnusuallyTightConstruction
In unconfined spaces, infiltration may be adequate to pro-
vide air for combustion, ventilation and dilution of flue gases. However, in buildings with unusually tight construc-
tion, additional air MUST be provided using the methods described in section titled Confined Space Installation:
If any one of the following conditions are present, the
space MUST be treated as confined space.
1. Walls and ceilings exposed to the outside have a continuous, sealed vapour barrier. Openings are
gasketed or sealed.
2. Doors and openable windows are weather stripped.
3,
Other openings are caulked or sealed. These include joints around window and door frames, between sole
plates and floors, between wall-ceiling joints, be- tween 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°F (15° c) or flue gases will con- dense in the heat exchanger. This will shorten the life of the heat exchanger and possibly void your warranty.
