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 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, ANSI/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 serious 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.
2. Do not use this unit if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service agency 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.
Frozen Water Pipe Hazard
WATER DAMAGE TO PROPERTY HAZARD
FaiIure to follow this warning could 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.

441 01 2613 05
Specifications are subject to change without notice
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.
!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.
2. Installation
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in
personal injury or death. If this furnace is replacing a previously common-
vented furnace, it may be necessary to resize the existing vent system to prevent oversizing problems for the other remaining appliances(s). See Venting and Combustion Air Check in the Gas Vent Installation section of this instruction.
!
WARNING
Location and Clearances
If furnace is a replacement, it is usually best to install the furnace where the old one was. Choose the location or evaluate the existing location based upon the minimum clearance and furnace dimensions (Figure 1 or Figure 2).
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Do NOT operate furnace in a corrosive atmosphere containing chlorine, fluorine or any other damaging chemicals which could harm the furnace and vent system, and permit spillage of combustion products into an occupied space.
Refer to Combustion & Ventilation Air section, Contaminated Combustion Air for combustion air evaluation and remedy.
!
WARNING
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 respect to the heat distribution system.
4. Install the vent pipes as short as practical. (See Gas Vent Installation section).
5. Do NOT install furnace directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible material other than wood flooring.
6. Maintain clearance for fire safety and servicing. A front clearance of 24 (609.6mm) required and 30 (762mm) is
recommended for access to the burner, controls and filter. See clearance requirements in Figure 1 or Figure 2.
7. Use a raised base if the floor is damp or wet at times.
8. Residential garage installations require:
Burners and ignition sources installed at least 18
(457.2mm) above the floor.
Furnace must be located or physically protected from
possible damage by a vehicle.
9. 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 bottom side 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.
10. This furnace may be used for construction heat provided that:
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 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
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.
Verify proper furnace operating conditions including
ignition, gas input rate, air temperature rise, and venting according to these installation instructions.

Downflow Venting: The combustion venter MUST be rotated to vent out the side for all downflow installations, (see Figure 5). Bottom venting is not permitted. See “Side venting” for instructions to rotate the vent to the side. In addition to rotating the vent to the side a Vent Pipe Shield (NAHA002VC) is required to shield the hot vent pipe.
!
BURN HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury and/or property damage.
Vent pipe is HOT and could cause personal injury. Hot vent pipe is in reach of small children when installed in downflow position.
Install vent pipe shield NAHA002VC.
WARNING
Pressure Switch Relocation
If the furnace is installed in the upflow position, the pressure switch will remain in the same position as installed by the factory unless the inducer is rotated. If the furnace is installed in an orientation that places the pressure switch below the pressure tap on the inducer housing, then the switch MUST be relocated. In order to relocate the switch, locate 2 mounting holes or drill above the inducer pressure tap. When drilling the 2 holes make sure to keep
the switch and tubing far enough away from the burners or hot surfaces as to not melt the hose, switch, or wires. To prevent possible kinking of the pressure switch hose, trim the hose to remove excess length.
Note: When drilling new holes make sure metal shavings do not fall on or in components, as this can shorten the life of the furnace.

3. Side Venting
This furnace is shipped from the factory with the venter assembly in an upflow configurations (top vent). The venter assembly can easily be rotated to a side vent configuration for use in upflow, horizontal!flow, or downflow application.
When using a side vent configuration (side outlet instead of top outlet), it may be necessary to relocate the pressure switch to the alternate position on the opposite side of the top panel. Two screw holes are provided at the alternate position. Route the pressure switch tubing so the tubing is not kinked and not touching the hot collector box, venter housing, or motor. It may be necessary to shorten the length of the tubing to properly route the tubing and eliminate kinks.
Rotating the Venter Assembly
1. If gas and electrical power have already been connected to unit shut off gas and remove power from unit. Unscrew screws on burner compartment door and remove burner compartment door. (see Figure 6).
2. Disconnect power leads to the venter motor and hose to pressure switch. Remove three (3) or four (4) screws which secure the venter to the collector box, (see Figure 7).
3. Cut webbing with a pair of snips holding the vent plate to the cabinet on either the left or right side of unit depending on right or left venting as desired. Discard vent plate, (see Figure 6).
4. Replace venter gasket (part # 1013540, if needed) to venter assembly with adhesive in the same location as the old one.
5. Clip the wire tie for the venter wires, if needed.
6. Rotate venter assembly 90° right or left from original location depending on venting configurations.

NFPA & AGA
Indoor air is permitted for combustion and ventilation, if the Standard or Known!Air!Infiltration Rate Method is used.
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
Most homes will require additional air from outdoors for combustion and ventilation. A space with at least 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTUH (1.4 cubic meters per .293 kW/h) input rating or homes with tight construction may need outdoor air to supplement air infiltration for proper combustion and ventilation of flue gases.
WARNING
The Standard Method may be used, if the space has no less volume than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTUH (4.8 cubic meters per kW) of the maximum input ratings for all gas appliances installed in the space. The standard method permits indoor air to be used for combustion and ventilation air.
The Known Air Infiltration Rate Method shall be used if the infiltration rate is known to be less than 0.40 air changes per hour (ACH) and equal to or greater than 0.10 ACH. Infiltration rates greater than 0.60 ACH shall not be used. The minimum required volume of the space varies with the number of ACH and shall be determined per Table 2 or Equations 1 and 2. Determine the minimum required volume for each appliance in the space, and add the volumes together to get the total minimum required volume for the space.
