DANGER
Danger of explosion. There are circumstances in which odorant used with LP/
propane gas can lose its scent. In case of a leak, LP/
propane gas will settle close to the oor and may be difcult to smell. An LP/propane leak detector should be
installed in all LP applications.
Use only the type of gas approved for use with this fur­nace. Refer to unit nameplate.
EL296UHV units are CSA International certied to ANSI
Z21.47 and CSA 2.3 standards.
Building Codes
In the USA, installation of gas furnaces must conform with local building codes. In the absence of local codes, units must be installed according to the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1/NFPA 54). The National Fuel Gas Code is available from the following address:
American National Standards Institute, Inc. 11 West 42nd Street New York, NY 10036
In Canada, installation must conform with current National Standard of Canada CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes, local plumbing or waste water codes and other applicable local codes.

Installation Locations
This furnace is CSA International certied for installation
clearances to combustible material as listed on the unit nameplate and in the table in Figure 12. Accessibility and service clearances must take precedence over re protec­tion clearances.
NOTE - For installation on combustible oors, the furnace shall not be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other combustible material other than wood ooring.
For installation in a residential garage, the furnace must be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source are located no less than 18 inches (457 mm) above the
oor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid
physical damage by vehicles. When a furnace is installed in a public garage, hangar, or other building that has a hazardous atmosphere, the furnace must be installed ac­cording to recommended good practice requirements and current National Fuel Gas Code or CSA B149 standards.
NOTE - Furnace must be adjusted to obtain a temperature
rise within the range specied on the unit nameplate. Fail­ure to do so may cause erratic limit operation and prema­ture heat exchanger failure.
This EL296UHV furnace must be installed so that its elec­trical components are protected from water. Installed in Combination with a Cooling Coil When this furnace is used with cooling coils (Figure 3), it shall be installed in parallel with, or on the upstream side of, cooling coils to avoid condensation in the heating compartment. With a
parallel ow arrangement, a damper (or other means to control the ow of air) must adequately prevent chilled ai
from entering the furnace. If the damper is manually op­erated, it must be equipped to prevent operation of either the heating or the cooling unit, unless it is in the full HEAT or COOL setting.
When installed, this furnace must be electrically grounded according to local codes. In addition, in the United States, installation must conform with the current National Elec­tric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70. The National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA No. 70) is available from the following ad­dress:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Battery March Park
Quincy, MA 02269
In Canada, all electrical wiring and grounding for the unit must be installed according to the current regulations of the Canadian Electrical Code Part I (CSA Standard C22.1) and/or local codes.
Figure 3
NOTE - This furnace is designed for a minimum contin­uous return air temperature of 60°F (16°C) or an inter­mittent operation down to 55°F (13°C) dry bulb for cases where a night setback thermostat is used. Return air tem­perature must not exceed 85°F (29°C) dry bulb.
The EL296UHV furnace may be installed in alcoves, clos­ets, attics, basements, garages, crawl spaces and utility
rooms in the upow or horizontal position. This furnace design has not been CSA certied for installation in mobile
homes, recreational vehicles, or outdoors.
Use of Furnace as Construction Heater
NOTE - Gas furnaces manufactured on or after May 1st 2017 are not permitted to be used in Canada for heating of buildings or structures under construction.
The following statement only applies to the US. Lennox does not recommend the use of EL296UHV units as a construction heater during any phase of construction. Very low return air temperatures, harmful vapors, construction dust and operation of the unit with clogged or misplaced
lters may damage the unit.
However, EL296UHV units may be used for heating of
buildings or structures under construction in the US, if the
following conditions are met to ensure proper operation:
The vent system must be permanently installed per
these installation instructions.
A room thermostat must control the furnace. The
use of xed jumpers that will provide continuous heating is not allowed.
The return air duct must be provided and sealed to
the furnace.
Return air temperature range between 60°F (16°C)
and 80°F (27°C) must be maintained.
Air lters must be installed in the system and must
be maintained during construction.
Page 4
Air lters must be replaced upon construction com-
pletion.
The input rate and temperature rise must be set per
the furnace rating plate.
One hundred percent (100%) outdoor air must be
provided for combustion air requirements during construction. Temporary ducting may supply out­door air to the furnace. Do not connect duct directly to the furnace. Size the temporary duct following these instructions in section for Combustion, Dilu­tion and Ventilation Air in a conned space with air from outside.
The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct
system, air lters and evaporator coils must be thoroughly cleaned following nal construction clean-up.
All furnace operating conditions (including ignition,
input rate, temperature rise and venting) must
General
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do not supersede local codes in any way. Consult authorities having jurisdiction before installation. In addition to the requirements outlined previously, the fol-
lowing general recommendations must be considered when installing a EL296UHV furnace:
• Place the furnace as close to the center of the air distribution system as possible. The furnace should also be located close to the vent termination point.
• When the furnace is installed in non-direct vent ap­plications, do not install the furnace where drafts might blow directly into it. This could cause improp­er combustion and unsafe operation.
• When the furnace is installed in non-direct vent ap­plications, do not block the furnace combustion air opening with clothing, boxes, doors, etc. Air is need­ed for proper combustion and safe unit operation.
• When the furnace is installed in an attic or other insulated space, keep insulation away from the fur­nace.
• When the furnace is installed in an unconditioned space, consider provisions required to prevent freezing of condensate drain system.
• Please consult the manufacturer of your evaporator coil for their recommendations on distance required between the heat exchanger and their drain pan. Adequate space must be provided between the drain pan and the furnace heat exchanger.
CAUTION
EL296UHV unit should not be installed in areas normally subject to freezing temperatures.
WARNING
This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
WARNING
Insufcient combustion air can cause headaches,
nausea, dizziness or asphyxiation. It will also cause excess water in the heat exchanger resulting in rusting and premature heat exchanger failure. Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will result in safety and performance related problems. Avoid exposure to the following substances in the combustion air supply:
Permanent wave solutions Chlorinated waxes and cleaners Chlorine base swimming pool chemicals Water softening chemicals De-icing salts or chemicals Carbon tetrachloride Halogen type refrigerants Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene) Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc. Hydrochloric acid Cements and glues Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers Masonry acid washing materials
Combustion, Dilution & Ventilation Air
If the EL296UHV is installed as a Non-Direct Vent Fur­nace, follow the guidelines in this section.
NOTE - In Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken from indoors or ventilated attic or crawlspace and
ue gases are discharged out-doors.
In the past, there was no problem in bringing in sufcient outdoor air for combustion. Inltration provided all the air
that was needed. In today’s homes, tight construction practices make it necessary to bring in air from outside for combustion. Take into account that exhaust fans, appli-
ance vents, chimneys, and replaces force additional air
that could be used for combustion out of the house. Unless outside air is brought into the house for combus-
tion, negative pressure (outside pressure is greater than inside pressure) will build to the point that a downdraft can occur in the furnace vent pipe or chimney. As a result, combustion gases enter the living space creating a poten­tially dangerous situation.
In the absence of local codes concerning air for combus­tion and ventilation, use the guidelines and procedures in this section to install EL296UHV furnaces to ensure ef-
Page 5
cient and safe operation. You must consider combustion air needs and requirements for exhaust vents and gas piping. A portion of this information has been reprinted with permission from the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI. Z223.1/NFPA 54). This reprinted material is not the com-
plete and ofcial position of the ANSI on the referenced
subject, which is represented only by the standard in its entirety.
In Canada, refer to the CSA B149 installation codes.
CAUTION
Do not install the furnace in a corrosive or contaminated atmosphere. Meet all combustion and ventilation air requirements, as well as all local codes.
All gas-red appliances require air for the combustion process. If sufcient combustion air is not available, the furnace or other appliance will operate inefciently and
unsafely. Enough air must be provided to meet the needs of all fuel-burning appliances and appliances such as ex­haust fans which force air out of the house. When replac­es, exhaust fans, or clothes dryers are used at the same time as the furnace, much more air is required to ensure proper combustion and to prevent a downdraft. Insuf­cient air causes incomplete combustion which can result in carbon monoxide.
In addition to providing combustion air, fresh outdoor air dilutes contaminants in the indoor air. These contaminants may include bleaches, adhesives, detergents, solvents and other contaminants which can corrode furnace com­ponents.
The requirements for providing air for combustion and ventilation depend largely on whether the furnace is in-
stalled in an unconned or a conned space.
Unconned Space
An unconned space is an area such as a basement or
large equipment room with a volume greater than 50 cubic feet (1.42 m3) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of the com­bined input rating of all appliances installed in that space. This space also includes adjacent rooms which are not separated by a door. Though an area may appear to be
unconned, it might be necessary to bring in outdoor air
for combustion if the structure does not provide enough air
by inltration. If the furnace is located in a building of tight
construction with weather stripping and caulking around the windows and doors, follow the procedures in the Air from Outside section
Conned Space
A conned space is an area with a volume less than 50
cubic feet (1.42 m3) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of the combined input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. This denition includes furnace closets or small
equipment rooms.
When the furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space containing the furnace, the return air must be handled by ducts which are sealed to the furnace casing and which terminate outside the space containing the furnace.This is especially important when the furnace is mounted on
a platform in a conned space such as a closet or small
equipment room. Even a small leak around the base of the unit at the plat-
form or at the return air duct connection can cause a po­tentially dangerous negative pressure condition. Air for combustion and ventilation can be brought into the con-
ned space either from inside the building or from outside.
Air from Inside
If the conned space that houses the furnace adjoins a space categorized as unconned, air can be brought in by
providing two permanent openings between the two spac­es. Each opening must have a minimum free area of 1 square inch (645 mm2) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of
total input rating of all gas-red equipment in the conned
space. Each opening must be at least 100 square inches (64516 mm2). One opening shall be within 12 inches (305 mm) of the top of the enclosure and one opening within 12 inches (305 mm) of the bottom. See Figure 4.

If air from outside is brought in for combustion and ventila­tion, the conned space must have two permanent open­ings. One opening shall be within 12 inches (305 mm) of the top of the enclosure and one opening within 12 inches (305 mm) of the bottom. These openings must communi­cate directly or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that freely communicate with the outdoors or in­directly through vertical ducts. Each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch (645 mm2) per 4,000 Btu (1.17 kW) per hour of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. See Figure 5 and Figure 8. When com­municating with the outdoors through horizontal ducts, each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square inch (645 mm2) per 2,000 Btu (.56 kW) per total input rat­ing of all equipment in the enclosure. See Figure 9.
When ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross-sec­tional area as the free area of the openings to which they connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts shall be no less than 3 inches (75 mm). In calculating free area, the blocking effect of louvers, grilles, or screens must be considered. If the design and free area of protec­tive covering is not known for calculating the size opening required, it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20 to 25 percent free area and metal louvers and grilles will have 60 to 75 percent free area. Louvers and grilles
must be xed in the open position or interlocked with the
equipment so that they are opened automatically during equipment operation.

WARNING
Installation Clearances
Side Return Air
Improper installation of the furnace can result in
personal injury or death. Combustion and ue products
must never be allowed to enter the return air system or air in the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint tape to seal return air system to furnace. In platform installations with furnace return, the furnace should be sealed airtight to the return air plenum. A door must never be used as a portion of the return air duct system. The base must provide a stable support and an airtight seal to the furnace. Allow absolutely no sagging, cracks, gaps, etc.
For no reason should return and supply air duct systems ever be connected to or from other heating devices
such as a replace or stove, etc. Fire, explosion, carbon
monoxide poisoning, personal injury and/or property damage could result.
Return Air Guidelines
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace installed in an upow application. If the
furnace is installed on a platform with bottom return, make an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the platform to ensure that the furnace operates properly and safely. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom panel to facilitate installation.
Markings are provided on both sides of the furnace cab­inet for installations that require side return air. Cut the furnace cabinet at the maximum dimensions shown on page 2.

NOTE - When the furnace is installed on a platform or with the horizontal suspension kit in a crawlspace, it must be elevated enough to avoid water damage, accommodate drain trap and to allow the evaporator coil to drain.
Platform Installation of Horizontal Unit
1 - Select location for unit keeping in mind service and
other necessary clearances. See Figure 17.
2 - Construct a raised wooden frame and cover frame
with a plywood sheet. If unit is installed above
nished space, install an an auxiliary drain pan
under unit. Set unit in drain pan as shown in Figure
19. Leave 8 inches for service clearance below unit for condensate trap.
3 - Provide a service platform in front of unit. When
installing the unit in a crawl space, a proper support platform may be created using cement blocks.
4 - Route auxiliary drain line so that water draining from
this outlet will be easily noticed by the homeowner.
5 - If necessary, run the condensate line into a
condensate pump to meet drain line slope requirements. The pump must be rated for use with condensing furnaces. Protect the condensate discharge line from the pump to the outside to avoid freezing.
6 - Continue with exhaust, condensate and intake
piping installation according to instructions.

Return Air -- Horizontal Applications
Return air may be brought in only through the end of a furnace installed in the horizontal position. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom panel to facilitate in­stallation. See Figure 15.
Filters
This unit is not equipped with a lter or rack. A eld-pro­vided high velocity rated lter is required for the unit to operate properly. Table 1 lists recommended lter sizes. A lter must be in place whenever the unit is operating.
IMPORTANT
If a highefciency lter is being installed as part of this system to ensure better indoor air quality, the lter must be properly sized. Highefciency lters have a higher static pressure drop than standardefciency glass/foam lters. If the pressure drop is too great, system capacity
and performance may be reduced. The pressure drop may also cause the limit to trip more
frequently during the winter and the indoor coil to freeze in the summer, resulting in an increase in the number of service calls.
Before using any lter with this system, check the specications provided by the lter manufacturer against
the data given in the appropriate Lennox Product
Specications bulletin. Additional information is provided
in Service and Application Note ACC002 (August 2000).

Duct System
Use industry-approved standards to size and install the supply and return air duct system. Refer to ACCA Manual D. This will result in a quiet and low-static system that has uniform air distribution.
NOTE - This furnace is not certied for operation in heat­ing mode (indoor blower operating at selected heating speed) with an external static pressure which exceeds 0.8 inches w.c. Operation at these conditions may result in improper limit operation.
Supply Air Plenum
If the furnace is installed without a cooling coil, a remov­able access panel should be installed in the supply air duct. The access panel should be large enough to per­mit inspection of the heat exchanger. The furnace access panel must always be in place when the furnace is operat­ing and it must not allow leaks.
Return Air Plenum
NOTE - Return air must not be drawn from a room where this furnace, or any other gas-fueled appliance (i.e., water heater), or carbon monoxide-producing de-
vice (i.e., wood replace) is installed.
When return air is drawn from a room, a negative pressure is created in the room. If a gas appliance is operating in
a room with negative pressure, the ue products can be
pulled back down the vent pipe and into the room. This reverse ow of the ue gas may result in incomplete com­bustion and the formation of carbon monoxide gas. This raw gas or toxic fumes might then be distributed through­out the house by the furnace duct system.
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either side of the furnace (return air brought into either side of
furnace allowed only in upow applications). If a furnace
with bottom return air is installed on a platform, make an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the platform to ensure that the unit operates properly and safely. Use berglass sealing strips, caulking, or equiva­lent sealing method between the plenum and the furnace
cabinet to ensure a tight seal. If a lter is installed, size the return air duct to t the lter frame.
Pipe & Fittings Specications
All pipe, ttings, primer and solvent cement must conform
with American National Standard Institute and the Ameri­can Society for Testing and Materials (ANSI/ASTM) stan-
dards. The solvent shall be free owing and contain no
lumps, undissolved particles or any foreign matter that adversely affects the joint strength or chemical resistance of the cement. The cement shall show no gelation, strati-
cation, or separation that cannot be removed by stirring. Refer to the table 2 below for approved piping and tting
materials.
Page 13
CAUTION
Solvent cements for plastic pipe are ammable liquids
and should be kept away from all sources of ignition. Do not use excessive amounts of solvent cement when making joints. Good ventilation should be maintained to
reduce re hazard and to minimize breathing of solvent
vapors. Avoid contact of cement with skin and eyes.

IMPORTANT
EL296UHV exhaust and intake connections are made of PVC. Use PVC primer and solvent cement when using PVC vent pipe. When using ABS vent pipe, use transitional solvent cement to make connections to the
PVC ttings in the unit.
Use PVC primer and solvent cement or ABS solvent ce-
ment meeting ASTM specications, refer to Table 2. As an
alternate, use all purpose cement, to bond ABS, PVC, or
CPVC pipe when using ttings and pipe made of the same
materials. Use transition solvent cement when bonding ABS to either PVC or CPVC.
Low temperature solvent cement is recommended during cooler weather. Metal or plastic strapping may be used for vent pipe hangers. Uniformly apply a liberal coat of PVC primer for PVC or use a clean dry cloth for ABS to clean
inside socket surface of tting and male end of pipe to depth of tting socket.
Canadian Applications Only - Pipe, ttings, primer and solvent cement used to vent (exhaust) this appliance must be certied to ULC S636 and supplied by a single manu­facturer as part of an approved vent (exhaust) system. In addition, the rst three feet of vent pipe from the furnace ue collar must be accessible for inspection.

Joint Cementing Procedure
All cementing of joints should be done according to the
specications outlined in ASTM D 2855.
DANGER
DANGER OF EXPLOSION!
Fumes from PVC glue may ignite during system check. Allow fumes to dissipate for at least 5 minutes before placing unit into operation..
1 - Measure and cut vent pipe to desired length. 2 - Debur and chamfer end of pipe, removing any
ridges or rough edges. If end is not chamfered,
edge of pipe may remove cement from tting socket
and result in a leaking joint.
NOTE - Check the inside of vent pipe thoroughly for any obstruction that may alter furnace operation.
3 - Clean and dry surfaces to be joined.
4 - Test t joint and mark depth of tting on outside of
pipe.
5 - Uniformly apply a liberal coat of PVC primer for
PVC or use a clean dry cloth for ABS to clean inside
socket surface of tting and male end of pipe to depth of tting socket.
NOTE - Time is critical at this stage. Do not allow primer to dry before applying cement.
6 - Promptly apply solvent cement to end of pipe and
inside socket surface of tting. Cement should be
applied lightly but uniformly to inside of socket. Take care to keep excess cement out of socket. Apply second coat to end of pipe.
7 - Immediately after applying last coat of cement to
pipe, and while both inside socket surface and end of pipe are wet with cement, forcefully insert end of pipe into socket until it bottoms out. Turn PVC pipe 1/4 turn during assembly (but not after pipe is fully inserted) to distribute cement evenly. DO NOT turn ABS or cellular core pipe.

seconds after last application of cement. Hammer blows should not be used when inserting pipe.
8 - After assembly, wipe excess cement from pipe at
end of tting socket. A properly made joint will show
a bead around its entire perimeter. Any gaps may
indicate an improper assembly due to insufcient
solvent.
9 - Handle joints carefully until completely set.
Venting Practices
SCHEDULE 40
PVC - 5'
all other pipe* - 3'
Conduct the following test while each appliance is oper­ating and the other appliances (which are not operating) remain connected to the common venting system. If the venting system has been installed improperly, you must correct the system as indicated in the general venting re­quirements section.
WARNING
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each 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:
* See Piping and Fittings Specifications table
- Isolate piping at the point where it exits the outside wall o
Wall Thickness Guidelines
24” maximum 3/4” minimum
Wall
Figure 20
1 - In areas where piping penetrates joists or interior
walls, hole must be large enough to allow clearance on all sides of pipe through center of hole using a hanger.
2 - When furnace is installed in a residence where unit
is shut down for an extended period of time, such as a vacation home, make provisions for draining condensate collection trap and lines.
Removal of the Furnace from Common Vent
In the event that an existing furnace is removed from a venting system commonly run with separate gas applianc­es, the venting system is likely to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached appliances.
1 - Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
2 - Inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch. Determine that there is no blockage,
restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deciencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3 - Close all building doors and windows and all
doors between the space in which the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system
edistuoedisni
are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliances not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not
operate a summer exhaust fan. Close replace
dampers.
4 - Follow the lighting instructions. Turn on the appliance
that is being inspected. Adjust the thermostat so that the appliance operates continuously.
5 - After the main burner has operated for 5 minutes,
test for leaks of ue gases at the draft hood relief opening. Use the ame of a match or candle.
6 - After determining that each appliance connected
to the common venting system is venting properly, (step 3 return all doors, widows, exhaust fans,
replace dampers, and any other gas-burning
appliances to their previous mode of operation.
7 - If a venting problem is found during any of the
preceding tests, the common venting system must
be modied to correct the problem.
Resize the common venting system to the minimum vent pipe size determined by using the appropriate ta­bles in Appendix G. (These are in the current standards

Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with instal­lation following instructions given in piping termination section.
The EL296UHV can be installed as either a Non-Direct Vent or a Direct Vent gas central furnace.
NOTE - In Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken from indoors or ventilated attic or crawlspace and
ue gases are discharged outdoors. In Direct Vent instal­lations, combustion air is taken from outdoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors.
Intake and exhaust pipe sizing -- Size pipe according to
tables 4 and 5. Count all elbows inside and outside the home. Table 4 lists the minimum vent pipe lengths per­mitted. Table 5 lists the maximum pipe lengths permitted.
Regardless of the diameter of pipe used, the standard roof and wall terminations described in section Exhaust Piping Terminations should be used. Exhaust vent termination pipe is sized to optimize the velocity of the exhaust gas as it exits the termination. Refer to table 8. In some appli­cations which permit the use of several different sizes of vent pipe, a combination vent pipe may be used. Contact Lennox’ Application Department for assistance in sizing vent pipe in these applications.
NOTE - The exhaust collar on all models is sized to ac­commodate 2” Schedule 40 vent pipe. In horizontal ap­plications, any transition to exhaust pipe larger than 2” must be made in vertical runs of the pipe. Therefore a 2” elbow must be added before the pipe is transitioned to any size larger than 2”. This elbow must be added to the elbow count used to determine acceptable vent lengths. Contact the Application Department for more information concerning sizing of vent systems which include multiple pipe sizes.
CAUTION
Do not discharge exhaust into an existing stack or stack that also serves another gas appliance. If vertical discharge through an existing unused stack is required, insert PVC pipe inside the stack until the end is even with the top or outlet end of the metal stack.
The exhaust vent pipe operates under positive pressure and must be completely sealed to prevent leakage of combustion products into the living space.
Vent Piping Guidlines
NOTE - Lennox has approved the use of DuraVent® and Centrotherm manufactured vent pipe and terminations as an option to PVC. When using the PolyPro® by Du­raVent or InnoFlue® by Centrotherm venting system the vent pipe requirements stated in the unit installation in­struction – minimum & maximum vent lengths, termination clearances, etc. – apply and must be followed. Follow the instructions provided with PoyPro by DuraVent and Inno­Flue by Centrotherm venting system for assembly or if re­quirements are more restrictive.
