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

Page 5

• 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.

Refer to Engineering Handbook for additional information.

EL296UHV applications which include side return air and a condensate trap installed on the same side of the cabinet (trap can be installed remotely within 5

ft.) require either a return air base or eld-fabricated

transition to accommodate an optional IAQ accessory taller than 14.5”. See Figure 13.

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).

Filter Size

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

Page 14

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.

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. The PolyPro by Duravent and InnoFlue by Centrotherm venting system must also follow the uninsulated

The EL296UHV furnace may be installed in either direct vent or non-direct vent applications. In non-direct vent

applications, when intake air will be drawn into the furnace from the surrounding space, the indoor air quality must be considered and guidelines listed in Combustion, Dilution and Ventilation Air section must be followed.

Follow the next two steps when installing the unit in Direct Vent applications, where combustion air is taken from

outdoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors. The provided air intake screen must not be used in direct vent applications (outdoors).

1 - Use transition solvent cement or a sheet metal screw

to secure the intake pipe to the inlet air connector.

2 - Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with

installation following instructions given in general guidelines for piping terminations and intake and exhaust piping terminations for direct vent sections. Refer to table 5 for pipe sizes.

Follow the next two steps when installing the unit in NonDirect Vent applications where combustion air is taken

from indoors or ventilated attic or crawlspace and ue

gases are discharged outdoors.

1 - Use eld-provided materials and the factory-

provided air intake screen to route the intake piping as shown in Figure 26 or Figure 27. Maintain a minimum clearance of 3” (76mm) around the air intake opening. The air intake opening (with the protective screen) should always be directed

forward or to either side in the upow position, and

either straight out or downward in the horizontal position.

The air intake piping must not terminate too close

to the ooring or a platform. Ensure that the intake air inlet will not be obstructed by loose insulation

or other items that may clog the debris screen.

2 - If intake air is drawn from a ventilated attic (Figure

28) or ventilated crawlspace (Figure 29) the exhaust vent length must not exceed those listed in table 6. If 3” diameter pipe is used, reduce to 2” diameter pipe at the termination point to accommodate the debris screen.

3 - Use a sheet metal screw to secure the intake pipe

to the connector, if desired.

General Guidelines for Vent Terminations

In Non-Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken

from indoors or ventilated attic or crawlspace and the ue

gases are discharged to the outdoors. The EL296UHV is then classied as a non-direct vent, Category IV gas furnace.

In Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken from

outdoors and the ue gases are discharged to the outdoors. The EL296UHV is then classied as a direct vent,

Category IV gas furnace. In both Non-Direct Vent and Direct Vent applications, the

vent termination is limited by local building codes. In the absence of local codes, refer to the current National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223-1/NFPA 54 in U.S.A., and current CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes in Canada for details.

Position termination according to location given in Figure 31 or Figure 32. In addition, position termination so it is free from any obstructions and 12” above the average snow accumulation.

At vent termination, care must be taken to maintain protective coatings over building materials (prolonged exposure to exhaust condensate can destroy protective coatings). It is recommended that the exhaust outlet not be located within 6 feet (1.8m) of an outdoor AC unit because the condensate can damage the painted coating.

NOTE - See table 7 for maximum allowed exhaust pipe length without insulation in unconditioned space during winter design temperatures below 32°F (0°C). If required exhaust pipe should be insulated with 1/2” (13mm) Armaex or equivalent. In extreme cold climate areas, 3/4” (19mm) Armaex or equivalent may be necessary. Insulation must be protected from deterioration. Armaex with UV protection is permissable. Basements or other enclosed areas that are not exposed to the outdoor ambient temperature and are above 32 degrees F (0°C) are to be considered conditioned spaces.

IMPORTANT

Do not use screens or perforated metal in exhaust or intake terminations. Doing so will cause freeze-ups and may block the terminations.

IMPORTANT

For Canadian Installations Only: In accordance to CSA International B149 installation

codes, the minimum allowed distance between the combustion air intake inlet and the exhaust outlet of other appliances shall not be less than 12 inches (305mm).

Details of Intake and Exhaust Piping Terminations for

Exiting Exhaust and Intake Vent

Direct Vent Installations

NOTE - In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken

from outdoors and ue gases are discharged to outdoors. NOTE - Flue gas may be slightly acidic and may adverse-

ly affect some building materials. If any vent termination is used and the ue gasses may impinge on the building material, a corrosion-resistant shield (minimum 24 inches square) should be used to protect the wall surface. If the optional tee is used, the protective shield is recommended. The shield should be constructed using wood, plastic, sheet metal or other suitable material. All seams, joints, cracks, etc. in the affected area should be sealed using an appropriate sealant. See Figure 41.

Intake and exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally through an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In attic or closet installations, vertical termination through the roof is preferred. Figure 33 through Figure 40 show typical terminations.

1 - Intake and exhaust terminations are not required

to be in the same pressure zone. You may exit the intake on one side of the structure and the exhaust on another side (Figure 34). You may exit the exhaust out the roof and the intake out the side of the structure (Figure 35).

2 - Intake and exhaust pipes should be placed as close

together as possible at termination end (refer to illustrations). Maximum separation is 3” (76MM) on roof terminations and 6” (152MM) on side wall terminations.

NOTE - When venting in different pressure zones, the maximum separation requirement of intake and exhaust pipe DOES NOT apply.

3 - On roof terminations, the intake piping should

terminate straight down using two 90° elbows (See Figure 33).

4 - Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as

shown. A reducer may be required on the exhaust piping at the point where it exits the structure to improve the velocity of exhaust away from the intake piping. See table 8.

NOTE - Care must be taken to avoid recirculation of exhaust back into intake pipe.

5 - On eld-supplied terminations for side wall exit,

exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches (305MM) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508MM) for 3” (76MM) PVC beyond the outside wall. Intake piping should be as short as possible. See Figure 41.

6 - On eld-supplied terminations, a minimum distance

between the end of the exhaust pipe and the end of the intake pipe without a termination elbow is 8” and a minimum distance of 6” with a termination elbow. See Figure 41.

7 - If intake and exhaust piping must be run up a

side wall to position above snow accumulation or other obstructions, piping must be supported. At least one bracket must be used within 6” from the top of the elbow and then every 24” (610mm) as shown in Figure 41, to prevent any movement in

any direction. When exhaust and intake piping must be run up an outside wall, the exhaust piping must be terminated with pipe sized per table 8.The intake piping may be equipped with a 90° elbow turndown. Using turndown will add 5 feet (1.5m) to the equivalent length of the pipe.

The exhaust termination tee should be connected to the 2” or 3” PVC flue pipe as shown in the illustration. In horizontal tee applications there must be be a minimum of 3 ft away from covered patios or any living ares and

cannot be within 3 ft of a window. Do not use an accelerator in applications that include an exhaust termination tee. The accelerator is not required.

As required. Flue gas may be acidic and may adversely affect some building materials. If a side wall vent

termination is used and flue gases will impinge on the building materials, a corrosion−resistant shield (24 inches square) should be used to protect the wall surface. If optional tee is used, the protective shield is recommended. The shield should be constructed using wood, sheet metal or other suitable material. All seams, joints, cracks, etc. in affected area, should be sealed using an appropriate sealant.

Exhaust pipe 45° elbow can be rotated to the side away from the combustion air inlet to direct exhaust away from adjacent property. The exhaust must never be directed toward the combustion air inlet.

Details of Exhaust Piping Terminations for Non-Direct Vent Applications

Exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally through an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In attic or closet installations, vertical termination through the roof is preferred. Figure 42 and Figure 43 show typical terminations.

1 - Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as

shown. The termination pipe must be sized as listed

in table 8.The specied pipe size ensures proper

velocity required to move the exhaust gases away from the building.

2 - On eld supplied terminations for side wall exit,

exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches (305MM) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508MM) for 3” (76MM) PVC beyond the outside wall.

Condensate Piping

This unit is designed for either right- or left-side exit of

condensate piping in upow applications. In horizontal

applications, the condensate trap must extend below the unit. An 8” service clearance is required for the condensate trap. Refer to Figure 45 and Figure 47 for condensate trap locations. Figure 53 shows trap assembly using 1/2” PVC or 3/4” PVC.

NOTE - If necessary the condensate trap may be installed up to 5’ away from the furnace. Use PVC pipe to connect trap to furnace condensate outlet. Piping from furnace must slope down a minimum of 1/4” per ft. toward trap.

1 - Determine which side condensate piping will exit

the unit, location of trap, eld-provided ttings and

length of PVC pipe required to reach available drain.

2 - Use a large at head screw driver or a 1/2” drive

socket extension and remove plug (Figure 45) from the cold end header box at the appropriate location on the side of the unit. Install provided 3/4 NPT

street elbow tting into cold end header box. Use Teon tape or appropriate pipe dope.

NOTE - Cold end header box drain plugs are factory installed. Check the unused plug for tightness to prevent leakage.

3 - Install the cap over the clean out opening at the

base of the trap. Secure with clamp. See Figure 53.

4 - Install drain trap using appropriate PVC ttings,

glue all joints. Glue the provided drain trap as shown in Figure 53. Route the condensate line to an open drain. Condensate line must maintain a 1/4” downward slope from the furnace to the drain.

5 - Figure 48 and Figure 49 show the furnace and

evaporator coil using a separate drain. If necessary the condensate line from the furnace and evaporator coil can drain together. See Figure 50, Figure 51 and Figure 52. Upow furnace (Figure 51) - In upow

furnace applications the eld provided vent must

be a minimum 1” to a maximum 2” length above the condensate drain outlet connection. Any length

above 2” may result in a ooded heat exchanger

if the combined primary drain line were to become restricted. Horizontal furnace (Figure 52) - In

horizontal furnace applications the eld provided

vent must be a minimum 4” to a maximum 5” length above the condensate drain outlet connection.

Any length above 5” may result in a ooded heat

exchanger if the combined primary drain line were to become restricted.

Gas Piping

Gas supply piping should not allow more than 0.5”W.C. drop in pressure between gas meter and unit. Supply gas pipe must not be smaller than unit gas connection.

6 - In some localities, codes may require installation of

a manual main shut-off valve and union (furnished by installer) external to the unit. Union must be of the ground joint type.

CAUTION

If a exible gas connector is required or allowed by the

authority that has jurisdiction, black iron pipe shall be installed at the gas valve and extend outside the furnace

cabinet. The exible connector can then be added

between the black iron pipe and the gas supply line.

WARNING

Do not over torque (800 in-lbs) or under torque (350 inlbs) when attaching the gas piping to the gas valve.

1 - Gas piping may be routed into the unit through either

the left- or right-hand side. Supply piping enters into the gas valve from the side of the valve as shown

in gure 55. Connect the gas supply piping into the

gas valve. The maximum torque is 800 in lbs and minimum torque is 350 in lbs when when attaching the gas piping to the gas valve.

2 - When connecting gas supply, factors such as length

of run, number of ttings and furnace rating must

be considered to avoid excessive pressure drop. Table 9 lists recommended pipe sizes for typical applications.

NOTE - Use two wrenches when connecting gas piping to avoid transferring torque to the manifold.

3 - Gas piping must not run in or through air ducts,

clothes chutes, chimneys or gas vents, dumb waiters or elevator shafts. Center gas line through piping hole. Gas line should not touch side of unit. See Figure 55 and Figure 56.

4 - Piping should be sloped 1/4 inch per 15 feet (6mm

per 5.6m) upward toward the gas meter from the furnace. The piping must be supported at proper intervals, every 8 to 10 feet (2.44 to 3.05m), using suitable hangers or straps. Install a drip leg in vertical pipe runs to serve as a trap for sediment or condensate.

5 - A 1/8” N.P.T. plugged tap or pressure post is located

on the gas valve to facilitate test gauge connection. See Figure 62.

IMPORTANT

Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping must

be resistant to the actions of liquied petroleum gases.

Leak Check

After gas piping is completed, carefully check all piping

connections (factory- and eld-installed) for gas leaks.

Use a leak detecting solution or other preferred means.

Never use an open ame to test for gas leaks. Check all

connections using a commercially available soap solution

made specically for leak detection.

The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply system at pressures greater than or equal to 1/2 psig (3.48 kPa, 14 inches w.c.).

IMPORTANT

When testing pressure of gas lines, gas valve must be disconnected and isolated. See Figure 54. Gas valves can be damaged if subjected to pressures greater than 1/2 psig (3.48 kPa).

WARNING

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD

Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death, or property damage. Never use

an open ame to test for gas leaks. Check all connections

using a commercially available soap solution made

specically for leak detection. Some soaps used for leak

detection are corrosive to certain metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after leak test has been completed.

Holes are on both sides of the furnace cabinet to facilitate wiring.

Install a separate (properly sized) disconnect switch near the furnace so that power can be turned off for servicing. Before connecting the thermostat or the power wiring, check to make sure the wires will be long enough for servicing at a later date. Remove the blower access panel to check the length of the wire.

Complete the wiring connections to the equipment. Use the provided unit wiring diagram and the eld wiring diagrams shown in table 11 and Figure 60. Use 18-gauge wire or larger that is suitable for Class II rating for thermostat connections.

Electrically ground the unit according to local codes or, in the absence of local codes, according to the current National Electric Code (ANSI/NFPA No. 70). A green ground

wire is provided in the eld make-up box. NOTE - The

EL296UHV furnace contains electronic components that are polarity sensitive. Make sure that the furnace is wired correctly and is properly grounded.

One line voltage “ACC” 1/4” spade terminal is provided on the furnace integrated control. Any electronic air cleaner or other accessory rated up to one amp can be connected to this terminal with the neutral leg of the circuit being connected to the one of the provided neutral terminals. See Figure 61 for control conguration. This terminal is energized when the indoor blower is operating.

Figure 57

Refer to Figure 60 for unit schematic and eld wiring. See Figure 58 and Figure 59 for icomfort Wi-Fi® thermostat wiring in communicating applications. Table 11 shows DIP switch and on-board link settings for non-communicating thermostat applications. Typical wiring schematic is shown in Figure 60.

An unpowered, normally open (dry) set of contacts with

a 1/4” spade terminal “HUM” are provided for humidier

connections and may be connected to 24V or 120V. Any

humidier rated up to one amp can be connected to these terminals. In 120V humidier applications the neutral leg of

the circuit can be connected to one of the provided neutral terminals. This terminal is energized in the heating mode.

Install the room thermostat according to the instructions

provided with the thermostat. See table 11 for eld wiring

connections in varying applications. If the furnace is being matched with a heat pump, refer to the instruction packaged with the dual fuel thermostat.

Thermostat Selection

CAUTION

Field wiring for both communicating and noncommunicating applications is illustrated in diagrams, which begin on the next page.

Non-Communicating

In non-communicating applications the EL296UHV is designed to operate in a SINGLE-STAGE mode or TWOSTAGE mode using a conventional thermostat.

For optimal performance in non-communicating applications, Lennox recommends use of a ComfortSense® 7000 high quality electronic digital thermostat or any other with adjustable settings for 1st stage / 2nd stage on / off differentials and adjustable stage timers.

Communicating

In communicating applications the icomfort Wi-Fi® thermostat must be used. Refer to the instructions provided with the thermostat for installation, set-up and operation. In communicating system all unused thermostat wire in the wire bundle needs to be terminated inside and out. The extra wires can terminate on the ‘C” terminal of the icomfort communication terminal strip. (RSBus). Using an additional wire come off ”C” terminal and wire nut all the extra wires together. Termination on the outdoor control must match the indoor control.

Indoor Blower Speeds

Non-Communicating

When the thermostat is set to “FAN ON,” the indoor blower

will run continuously at a eld selectable percentage of

the second-stage cooling speed when there is no cooling or heating demand. The factory default setting is 38% of cool speed. When the EL296UHV is running in the heating mode,the indoor blower will run on the heating speed designated by the positions of DIP switches 11, 12 and 13. When there is a cooling demand, the indoor blower will run on the cooling speed designated by the positions of DIP switches 5 and 6. First stage cooling will run at 70% cool speed.

Communicating

NOTE - When the EL296UHV is used with icomfort WiF® thermostat, proper indoor blower speed selections are made by the communicating thermostat.

When the thermostat is set to “FAN ON,” the indoor blower

will run at setting determined during system conguration.

When there is a heating demand the fan will run on heat-

ing speeds for ring rate. When there is a cooling demand, the fan will run on the rst stage and second stage cooling

speed set using the icomfort WiFi® thermostat in the installer setup mode. The factory default is based upon 400 CFM a ton.

Generator Use - Voltage Requirements

The following requirements must be kept in mind when specifying a generator for use with this equipment:

• The furnace requires 120 volts (Range: 102 volts to 132 volts)

• The furnace operates at 60 Hz + 5% (Range: 57 Hz to 63 Hz)

• The furnace integrated control requires both correct polarity and proper ground. Both polarity and proper grounding should be checked before attempting to operate the furnace on either permanent or temporary power

• Generator should have a wave form distortion of less than 5% THD (total harmonic distortion)

Integrated Control DIP Switch Settings -

Conventional Thermostat (non-communicating)

EL296UHV units are equipped with a two-stage, variable speed integrated control. This control manages ignition timing, heating mode fan off delays and indoor blower speeds based on selections made using the control dip switches and jumpers. The control includes an internal watchguard feature which automatically resets the ignition control when it has been locked out. After one hour of continuous thermostat demand for heat, the watchguard will break and remake thermostat demand to the furnace and automatically reset the control to relight the furnace.

Note: All icomfort settings are set at the icomfort Wi-Fi® thermostat. See icomfort installation instruction. In icomfort communication system all DIP switch and clippable link settings are ignored. For conventional thermostats proceed with DIP switch and clippable link settings as outlined in the following.

Heating Operation DIP Switch Settings Switch 1 -- Thermostat Selection -- This unit may be

used with either a single-stage or two-stage thermostat. The thermostat selection is made using a DIP switch which must be properly positioned for the particular application. The DIP switch is factory-positioned for use with a twostage thermostat. If a single-stage thermostat is to be used, the DIP switch must be repositioned.

a. Select “OFF” for two-stage heating operation controlled by a

two-stage heating thermostat (factory setting);

b. Select “ON” for two-stage heating operation controlled by

a single-stage heating thermostat. This setting provides a timed delay before second-stage heat is initiated.

Switch 2 -- Second Stage Delay (Used with Single-

Stage Thermostat Only) -- This switch is used to determine the second stage on delay when a single-stage thermostat is being used. The switch is factory-set in the OFF

position, which provides a 7-minute delay before secondstage heat is initiated. If the switch is toggled to the ON position, it will provide a 12-minute delay before secondstage heat is initiated. This switch is only activated when the thermostat selector jumper is positioned for SINGLEstage thermostat use.

Switches 3 and 4 -- Blower-Off Delay -- The blower-on delay of 30 seconds is not adjustable. The blower-off delay (time that the blower operates after the heating de-

mand has been satised) can be adjusted by moving

switches 3 and 4 on the integrated control. The unit is shipped from the factory with a blower-off delay of 90 seconds. The blower off delay affects comfort and is adjustable to satisfy individual applications. Adjust the blower off delay to achieve a supply air temperature between 90° and 110°F at the exact moment that the blower is de-energized. Longer off delay settings provide lower supply air temperatures; shorter settings provide higher supply air temperatures.Table 12 provides the blower off timings that will result from different switch settings.

Unit Start Up

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING

WARNING

Do not use this furnace if any part has been underwater.

A ood-damaged furnace is extremely dangerous. Attempts to use the furnace can result in re or explosion. Immediately call a qualied service technician to inspect

the furnace and to replace all gas controls, control system parts, and electrical parts that have been wet or to replace the furnace, if deemed necessary.

WARNING

Danger of explosion. Can cause injury or product or property damage. If overheating occurs or if gas supply fails to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the appliance before shutting off electrical supply.

CAUTION

Before attempting to perform any service or maintenance, turn the electrical power to unit OFF at disconnect switch.

BEFORE LIGHTING the unit, smell all around the furnace

area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the oor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the oor.

The gas valve on the EL296UHV is equipped with a gas control switch (lever). Use only your hand to moveswitch. Never use tools. If the the switch will not move by hand, do not try to repair it. Force or attempted repair may result

in a re or explosion.

Placing the furnace into operation:

EL296UHV units are equipped with an automatic hot surface ignition system. Do not attempt to manually light burners on this furnace. Each time the thermostat calls for heat, the burners will automatically light. The ignitor does not get hot when there is no call for heat on these units.

Priming Condensate Trap

The condensate trap should be primed with water prior to start-up to ensure proper condensate drainage. Either

pour 10 . oz. (300 ml) of water into the trap, or follow

these steps to prime the trap:

1 - Follow the lighting instructions to place the unit into

operation. 2 - Set the thermostat to initiate a heating demand. 3 - Allow the burners to re for approximately 3 minutes. 4 - Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating

demand.

5 - Wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. Set the

thermostat to initiate a heating demand and again

allow the burners to re for approximately 3 minutes.

6 - Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating

demand and wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. At this point, the trap should be primed with

sufcient water to ensure proper condensate drain

operation.

WARNING

If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a re or

explosion may result causing property damage, personal injury or death.

Gas Valve Operation (Figure 62)

1 - STOP! Read the safety information at the beginning

of this section. 2 - Set the thermostat to the lowest setting. 3 - Turn off all electrical power to the unit. 4 - This furnace is equipped with an ignition device

which automatically lights the burners. Do not try to

light the burners by hand. 5 - Remove the access panel. 6 - Move gas valve switch to OFF. See gure 62. 7 - Wait ve minutes to clear out any gas. If you then

smell gas, STOP! Immediately call your gas supplier

from a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas supplier’s

instructions. If you do not smell gas go to next step. 8 - Move gas valve switch to ON. See Figure 62.

9 - Replace the access panel. 10 - Turn on all electrical power to to the unit. 11 - Set the thermostat to desired setting.

NOTE - When unit is initially started, steps 1 through 11 may need to be repeated to purge air from gas line.

12 - If the appliance will not operate, follow the

instructions “Turning Off Gas to Unit” and call your

service technician or gas supplier.

Turning Off Gas to Unit

1 - Set the thermostat to the lowest setting. 2 - Turn off all electrical power to the unit if service is to

be performed. 3 - Remove the access panel.

4 - Move gas valve switch to OFF. 5 - Replace the access panel.

Failure To Operate

If the unit fails to operate, check the following:

1 - Is the thermostat calling for heat? 2 - Are access panels securely in place? 3 - Is the main disconnect switch closed? 4 - Is there a blown fuse or tripped breaker? 5 - Is the lter dirty or plugged? Dirty or plugged lters

will cause the limit control to shut the unit off. 6 - Is gas turned on at the meter? 7 - Is the manual main shut-off valve open? 8 - Is the internal manual shut-off valve open? 9 - Is the unit ignition system in lockout? If the unit

locks out again, inspect the unit for blockages.

Heating Sequence Of Operation

1 - When thermostat calls for heat, combustion air

inducer starts.

2 - Combustion air pressure switch proves blower

operation. Switch is factory set and requires no

adjustment. 3 - After a 15-second prepurge, the hot surface ignitor

energizes. 4 - After a 20-second ignitor warm-up period, the gas

valve solenoid opens. A 4-second trial for ignition

period begins.” 5 - Gas is ignited, ame sensor proves the ame, and

the combustion process continues. 6 - If ame is not detected after rst ignition trial,

the ignition control will repeat steps 3 and 4 four

more times before locking out the gas valve

(“WATCHGUARD” ame failure mode). The ignition

control will then automatically repeat steps 1 through

6 after 60 minutes. To interrupt the 60-minute

“WATCHGUARD” period, move thermostat from

“Heat” to “OFF” then back to “Heat”. Heating

sequence then restarts at step 1.

Furnace should operate at least 5 minutes before checking gas ow. Determine time in seconds for two revolutions of gas through the meter. (Two revolutions assures a more accurate time.) Divide by two and compare to time in table 20. If manifold pressure matches table 22 and rate is incorrect, check gas orices for proper size and restriction. Remove temporary gas meter if installed.

NOTE - To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas appliances connected to meter.

Supply Pressure Measurement

An inlet post located on the gas valve provides access to the supply pressure. See Figure 62. Back out the 3/32 hex screw one turn, connect a piece of 5/16 tubing and connect to a manometer to measure supply pressure. See table 22 for supply line pressure.

On multiple unit installations, each unit should be checked separately, with and without units operating. Supply pressure must fall within range listed in table 22.

Manifold Pressure Measurement

NOTE - Pressure test adapter kit (10L34) is available from Lennox to facilitate manifold pressure measurement.

A manifold pressure post located on the gas valve provides access to the manifold pressure. See Figure 62. Back out the 3/32 hex screw one turn, connect a piece of 5/16 tubing and connect to a manometer to measure manifold pressure.

To correctly measure manifold pressure, the differential pressure between the positive gas manifold and the negative burner box must be considered.

1 - Connect the test gauge positive side “+“ to manifold

pressure tap on gas valve as noted above.

2 - Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and

connect to test gauge negative “-”.

3 - Ignite unit on low re and let run for 5 minutes to

allow for steady state conditions.

4 - After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record

manifold pressure and compare to value given in table 22.

5 - If necessary, make adjustments. Figure 62 shows

location of high re and low re adjustment screws.

6 - Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 on high re. See values in

table 22.

7 - Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as

an accurate reading has been obtained. Turn the supply and manifold 3/32” hex screws one revolution back into the gas valve.

8 - Start unit and perform leak check. Seal leaks if

found.

Testing for Proper Venting and Sufcient Combustion Air for Non-Direct Vent Applications

8 - If improper venting is observed during any of the

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.

After the EL296UHV gas furnace has been started, the following test should be conducted to ensure proper vent-

ing and sufcient combustion air has been provided to the EL296UHV as well as to other gas-red appliances which

are separately vented. If a EL296UHV furnace replaces a Category I furnace

which was commonly vented with another gas appliance, the size of the existing vent pipe for that gas appliance must be checked. Without the heat of the original furnace

ue products, the existing vent pipe is probably oversized

for the single water heater or other appliance. The vent should be checked for proper draw with the remaining appliance.

The test should be conducted while all appliances (both in operation and those not in operation) are connected to the venting system being tested. If the venting system has been installed improperly, or if provisions have not been

made for sufcient amounts of combustion air, corrections

must be made as outlined in the previous section.

1 - Seal any unused openings in the venting system. 2 - Visually inspect the venting system for proper

size and horizontal pitch. Determine there is no

blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other

deciencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

3 - To the extent that it is practical, close all building

doors and windows and all doors between the

space in which the appliances connected to the

venting system are located and other spaces of the

building. 4 - Close replace dampers. 5 - Turn on clothes dryers and any appliances not

connected 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 operate a summer exhaust fan. 6 - Follow the lighting instruction to place the appliance

being inspected into operation. Adjust thermostat

so appliance will operate continuously. 7 - Use the ame of match or candle to test for spillage

of ue gases at the draft hood relief opening after 5

minutes of main burner operation.

above tests, the venting system must be corrected

or sufcient combustion/make-up air must be

provided. The venting system should be re-sized to approach the minimum size as determined by using the appropriate tables in appendix G in the current standards of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI-Z223.1/NPFA 54 in the U.S.A., and the appropriate Natural Gas and Propane appliances venting sizing tables in the current standard of the CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes in Canada.

9 - After determining that each appliance remaining

connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as indicated in step 3, return

doors, windows, exhaust fans, replace dampers

and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous condition of use.

Repair Parts

The following repair parts are available through Lennox dealers. When ordering parts, include the complete furnace model number listed on the CSA nameplate -- Example: EL296UHV045P24B-01.

The primary limit is located on the heating compartment vestibule panel. This limit is factory set and requires no adjustment.

Flame Rollout Switches (Two)

These manually reset switches are located on the front of the burner box.

Pressure Switch

The pressure switch is located in the heating compartment on the cold end header box. This switch checks for proper combustion air inducer operation before allowing ignition trial. The switch is factory-set and must not be adjusted.

Temperature Rise

Place the unit into operation with a second-stage heating demand. After supply and return air temperatures have stabilized, check the temperature rise. If necessary, adjust the heating blower speed to maintain the temperature rise within the range shown on the unit nameplate. Increase the blower speed to decrease the temperature rise. Decrease the blower speed to increase the temperature rise. Failure to properly adjust the temperature rise may cause erratic limit operation.

Electrical

1 - Check all wiring for loose connections. 2 - Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (furnace

operating). Correct voltage is 120VAC + 10% 3 - Check amp-draw on the blower motor with blower

access panel in place.

Unit Nameplate__________Actual__________

Exhaust and Air Intake Pipe

1 - Check exhaust and air intake connections for

tightness and to make sure there is no blockage.

2 - Is pressure switch closed? Obstructed exhaust pipe

will cause unit to shut off at pressure switch. Check

termination for blockages. 3 - Obstructed pipe or termination may cause rollout

switches to open. Reset manual ame rollout

switches on burner box assembly if necessary.

The two-stage, variable speed integrated control used in EL296UHV units has an added feature of an internal

Watchguard control. The feature serves as an automatic reset device for ignition control lockout caused by ignition failure. After one hour of continuous thermostat demand for heat, the Watchguard will break and remake thermostat demand to the furnace and automatically reset the control to begin the ignition sequence.

NOTE - The ignition control thermostat selection DIP switch is factory-set in the “TWO-STAGE” position.

Applications Using a Two-Stage Thermostat

See Figure 63 for ignition control sequence

A - Heating Sequence -- Integrated Control Thermostat

Selection DIP Switch 1 OFF in “Two-Stage” Position

(Factory Setting)

1 - On a call for heat, thermostat rst-stage contacts

close sending a signal to the integrated control. The integrated control runs a self-diagnostic program and checks high temperature limit switches for normally closed contacts and pressure switches for normally open contacts. The combustion air inducer is energized at low speed.

2 - Once the control receives a signal that the low

pressure switch has closed, the combustion air inducer begins a 15-second pre-purge in low speed.

NOTE - If the low re pressure switch does not close the combustion air inducer will switch to high re. After a 15 second pre-purge the high re pressure switch will close and the unit will begin operation on high re. After 10 to 20 seconds of high re operation the unit will switch to low re..

3 - After the pre-purge is complete, a 20-second initial

ignitor warm-up period begins. The combustion air inducer continues to operate at low speed.

4 - After the 20-second warm-up period has ended,

the gas valve is energized on low re (rst stage)

and ignition occurs. At the same time, the control module sends a signal to begin an indoor blower 30-second ON-delay. When the delay ends, the

indoor blower motor is energized on the low re

heating speed, the HUM contacts close energizing

the humidier and 120V ACC terminal is energized.

The furnace will continue this operation as long as

the thermostat has a rst-stage heating demand.

5 - If second-stage heat is required, the thermostat

second- stage heat contacts close and send a signal to the integrated control. The integrated control initiates a 30-second second-stage recognition

delay.

6 - At the end of the recognition delay, the integrated

control energizes the combustion air inducer at

high speed. The control also checks the high re

(second stage) pressure switch to make sure it is

closed. The high re (second stage) gas valve is

energized and the indoor blower motor is energized

for operation at the high re heating speed.

7 - When the demand for high re (second stage) heat

is satised, the combustion air inducer is switched to the low-re heating speed and the high-re

(second stage) gas valve is de-energized. The

low-re (rst stage) gas valve continues operation. The indoor blower motor is switched to the low-re

heating speed.

8 - When the thermostat demand for low-re (rst

stage) heat is satised, the gas valve is deenergized and the eld-selected indoor blower off

delay begins. The combustion air inducer begins a 5-second post-purge period.

9 - When the combustion air post-purge period is

complete, the inducer and the HUM contacts are de-energized. The indoor blower is de-energized at the end of the off delay as well as the 120V ACC terminals.

Selection DIP Switch 1 ON in “Single-Stage” Position

NOTE - In these applications, two-stage heat will be initiated by the integrated control if heating demand has not been satised after the eld adjustable period (7 or 12 minutes).

1 - On a call for heat, thermostat rst-stage contacts

2 - Once the control receives a signal that the low

pressure switch has closed, the combustion air

inducer begins a 15-second pre-purge in low speed.

3 - After the pre-purge is complete, a 20-second initial

ignitor warm-up period begins. The combustion air

inducer continues to operate at low speed.

4 - After the 20-second warm-up period has ended,

the gas valve is energized on low re (rst stage)

and ignition occurs. At the same time, the control module sends a signal to begin an indoor blower 30-second ON-delay. When the delay ends, the

indoor blower motor is energized on the low re

heating speed and the HUM contacts are energized. The integrated control also initiates a second-stage on delay (factory-set at 7 minutes; adjustable to 12 minutes).

5 - If the heating demand continues beyond the

secondstage on delay, the integrated control energizes the combustion air inducer at high speed.

The control also checks the high re (second stage)

pressure switch to make sure it is closed. The high

re (second stage) gas valve is energized and the

indoor blower motor is energized for operation at

the high re heating speed.

6 - When the thermostat heating demand is satised,

the combustion air inducer begins a 5-second low

speed post-purge. The eld-selected indoor blower

off delay begins. The indoor blower operates at the

low-re heating speed.

7 - When the combustion air post-purge period is

complete, the inducer and the HUM contacts are de-energized. The indoor blower is de-energized at the end of the off delay as well as the 120V ACC terminals.

Annual Furnace Maintenance

At the beginning of each heating season, and to comply with the Lennox Limited Warranty, your system should be checked as follows:

1 - Check wiring for loose connections, voltage at

indoor unit and amperage of indoor motor.

2 - Check the condition of the belt and shaft bearings

if applicable. 3 - Inspect all gas pipe and connections for leaks. 4 - Check the cleanliness of lters and change if

necessary (monthly). 5 - Check the condition and cleanliness of burners and

heat exchanger and clean if necessary. 6 - Check the cleanliness of blower assembly and

clean the housing, blower wheel and blower motor

if necessary. 7 - Inspect the condensate drain and trap for leaks and

cracks. The drain and trap must also be cleaned

and the trap must be primed with water. Inspect the

rubber hoses connected to the pressure switches for

cracks or loose connections, replace as necessary.

Remove the rubber hoses from the cold end header

box and inspect for any blockage, clean as needed.

If strainers are installed in the hoses remember to

remove and clean before reinstalling the hoses. 8 - Evaluate the heat exchanger integrity by inspecting

the heat exchanger per the AHRI heat exchanger

inspection procedure. This procedure can be

viewed at www.ahrinet.org.

9 - Ensure sufcient combustion air is available to the

furnace. Fresh air grilles and louvers (on the unit and in the room where the furnace is installed) must be properly sized, open and unobstructed to provide combustion air.

10 - Inspect the furnace intake and exhaust pipes to

make sure they are in place, structurally sound, without holes, blockage or leakage and the exhaust pipe is sloped toward the furnace. Inspect terminations to ensure they are free of obstructions and are structurally sound. Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to ensure the duct is sealed to the furnace. Check for air leaks on supply and return ducts and seal where necessary.

11 - Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to

ensure the duct is sealed to the furnace. Check for air leaks on supply and return ducts and seal where necessary.

12 - Check the condition of the furnace cabinet insulation

and repair if necessary.

13 - Perform a complete combustion analysis during the

furnace inspection to ensure proper combustion and operation. Consult Service Literature for proper combustion values.

14 - Verify operation of CO detectors and replace

batteries as required.

Perform a general system test. Turn on the furnace to check operating functions such as the start-up and shutoff operation.

1 - Check the operation of the ignition system, inspect

and clean ame sensor. Check microamps before

and after. Check controls and safety devices (gas

valve, ame sensor, temperature limits). Consult

Service Manual for proper operating range. Thermal

Limits should be checked by restricting airow and

not disconnecting the indoor blower. For additional details, please see Service and Application Note H049.

2 - Verify that system total static pressure and airow

settings are within specic operating parameters.

3 - Clock gas meter to ensure that the unit is operating

at the specied ring rate for each stage of

operation. Check the supply pressure and the

manifold pressure on both low re and high re. If

manifold pressure adjustment is necessary, consult

the Service Literature for unit specic information

on adjusting gas pressure. Not all gas valves are adjustable. Verify correct temperature rise.
