Use of Furnace as Construction Heater
Lennox does not recommend the use of G61MP units as a
construction heater during any phase of construction. Very
low return air temperatures, harmful vapors and operation
of the unit with clogged or misplaced filters will damage the
unit.
G61MP units may be used for heating of buildings or structures under construction, if the following conditions are
met:
D The vent system must be permanently installed per
these installation instructions.
D A room thermostat must control the furnace. The use of
fixed jumpers that will provide continuous heating is not
allowed.
D The return air duct must be provided and sealed to the
furnace.
D Return air temperature range between 60°F (16°C) and
80°F (27°C) must be maintained.
D Air filters must be installed in the system and must be
maintained during construction.
D Air filters must be replaced upon construction comple-
tion.
D The input rate and temperature rise must be set per the
furnace rating plate.
Page 5
Page 6
D One hundred percent (100%) outdoor air must be pro-
vided 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
confined space with air from outside.
D The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct system,
air filters and evaporator coils must be thoroughly
cleaned following final construction clean−up.
D All furnace operating conditions (including ignition, in-
put rate, temperature rise and venting) must be verified
according to these installation instructions.
CAUTION
G61MP unit should not be installed in areas normally
subject to freezing temperatures.
Combustion, Dilution & Ventilation Air
If the G61MP 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 and flue gases are discharged out−
doors.
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 following general recommendations must be considered
when installing a G61MP 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 chimney or 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.
WARNING

Disturbing the insulation in this product during
installation, maintenance, or repair will expose you
to fiberglass wool. Breathing this may cause lung
cancer. (Fiberglass wool is known to the State of California to cause cancer.)
Fiberglass wool may also cause respiratory, skin,
and eye irritation.
To reduce exposure to this substance or for further
information, consult material safety data sheets
available from address shown below, or contact your
supervisor.

WARNING
Insufficient 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
In the past, there was no problem in bringing in sufficient
outdoor air for combustion. Infiltration 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, appliance vents, chimneys, and fireplaces force additional
air that could be used for combustion out of the house.
Unless outside air is brought into the house for combustion, 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 combus−
tion and ventilation, use the guidelines and procedures in
this section to install G61MP furnaces to ensure efficient
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−
Page 6
Page 7
Z223.1/NFPA 54). This reprinted material is not the complete and official position of the ANSI on the referenced
subject, which is represented only by the standard in its
entirety.
In Canada, refer to the standard 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-fired appliances require air for the combustion process. If sufficient combustion air is not available, the furnace or other appliance will operate inefficiently 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 fireplaces, 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. Insufficient 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 installed in
an unconfined or a confined space.
Unconfined Space
An unconfined 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 unconfined, it might be necessary to bring in outdoor air for
combustion if the structure does not provide enough air by
infiltration. 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.
Confined Space
A confined 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 com−
bined input rating of all appliances installed in that space. This
definition 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
confined space such as a closet or small equipment room.
Even a small leak around the base of the unit at the platform
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 confined space either from inside the building or from outside.
Air from Inside
If the confined space that houses the furnace adjoins a
space categorized as unconfined, 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−fired equipment in the confined
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 3.

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 fixed in the open position or interlocked with the
equipment so that they are opened automatically during
equipment operation.

Unit Heater Discharge Duct Guidelines
A field−fabricated and installed discharge air duct and grille
cabinet is suitable for use with the G61MP heater. Keep the
following items in mind when constructing the cabinet.
1 − Outer dimensions of cabinet should match those of the
unit heater, so the duct/grille cabinet installs flush with
the unit heater cabinet. See figure 20.
2 − Flange both ends of duct/grille cabinet so that screws
can be used to secure cabinet to discharge end of unit
heater.
3 − To ensure proper operation, the duct/grille cabinet
must be at least 18 inches long.
4 − Use #10−16 x 1/2 inch sheet metal screws to secure
duct/grille cabinet to unit, taking care not to damage internal components of unit heater when drilling holes or
installing screws. See figure 20.
5 − Use adjustable, double−deflection grille(s) to distribute
discharge air. Adjust static pressure to be in the 0.06
inch to 0.10 inch w.c. range.
*Gas connector may be
used for Canadian
installation if acceptable by local authority
having jurisdiction.

Duct System
Use industry-approved standards to size and install the
supply and return air duct system. This will result in a quiet
and low-static system that has uniform air distribution.
NOTE − Operation of this furnace in heating mode (indoor
blower operating at selected heating speed) with an external static pressure which exceeds 0.5 inches w.c. may result in erratic 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
(by reflected light) of the heat exchanger for leaks after the
furnace is installed. If present, this access panel must always be in place when the furnace is operating and it must
not allow leaks into the supply air duct system.
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 device (i.e., wood fireplace) 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 flue products can
be pulled back down the vent pipe and into the room. This
reverse flow of the flue gas may result in incomplete combustion and the formation of carbon monoxide gas. This
toxic gas 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. 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 fiberglass sealing
strips, caulking, or equivalent sealing method between the
plenum and the furnace cabinet to ensure a tight seal. If a
filter is installed, size the return air duct to fit the filter frame.
Pipe & Fittings Specifications
All pipe, fittings, primer and solvent cement must conform
with American National Standard Institute and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ANSI/ASTM) standards. The solvent shall be free flowing 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, stratification, or separation that cannot be removed by stirring. Refer to the table 4 for approved piping and fitting materials.
CAUTION
Solvent cements for plastic pipe are flammable 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 fire hazard and to minimize
breathing of solvent vapors. Avoid contact of cement
with skin and eyes.
Use PVC primer and solvent cement or ABS solvent cement
meeting ASTM specifications, refer to Table 4. As an alternate, use all purpose cement, to bond ABS, PVC, or CPVC
pipe when using fittings 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. 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 fitting and male end of pipe to depth of fitting socket.

Vent Piping Guidelines
The G61MP 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 and flue gases are discharged outdoors.
In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken from outdoors and flue gases are discharged outdoors.
Intake and exhaust pipe sizing in Direct Vent applications
and exhaust pipe sizing in Non-Direct Vent applications −−
Size pipe according to tables 6 and 7. Table 6 lists the minimum equivalent vent pipe lengths permitted. Table 7 liststhe maximum equivalent pipe lengths permitted.
Maximum vent length is defined as:
Total length (linear feet) of pipe,
Plus Equivalent length (feet) of fittings,
Plus Equivalent length (feet) of termination.
NOTE − Include ALL pipe and ALL fittings, both in
doors and outdoors.
Regardless of the diameter of pipe used, the standard roof
and wall terminations described in section Exhaust PipingTerminations 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.
*NOTE − The exhaust pipe should be offset a minimum of
12 inches to avoid the possibility of water droplets being re-
leased from the exhaust termination. The minimum exhaust vent length is 15 ft. Shorter exhaust vent lengths may
result in the discharge of water droplets from the exhaust
termination, in spite of the 12−inch vertical offset. See figure 21.
Each 90° elbow (including those provided with the furnace)
of any diameter is equivalent to 5 feet (1.52m) of vent pipe
of the same diameter. Two 45° elbows are equivalent to
one 90° elbow of the same diameter. One 45° elbow is
equal to 2.5 feet (.76m) of vent pipe of the same diameter.
In some applications which permit the use of several different sizes of vent pipe, a combination vent pipe may be
used. Contact the Application Department for assistance in
sizing vent pipe in these applications.
NOTE − The flue collar on all models is sized to accommodate 2" Schedule 40 flue pipe. When vent pipe which is
larger than 2" must be used in an upflow application, a 2"
elbow must be applied at the flue collar in order to properly transition to the larger diameter flue pipe. This elbow
must be added to the elbow count used to determine acceptable vent lengths. Assign an equivalent feet value to
this elbow according to the larger size pipe being used.
Contact Lennox’ Application Department for more information concerning sizing of vent systems which include
multiple pipe sizes.

Use the following steps to correctly size vent pipe diameter.
Refer to Vent Pipe Size Determination Worksheet on
page 53.
1 − Determine the vent termination and its corresponding
equivalent feet value according to table 5.
2 − Determine the number of 90° elbows required for both
indoor and outdoor (e.g. snow riser) use. Calculate the
corresponding equivalent feet of vent pipe.
3 − Determine the number of 45° elbows required for both
indoor and outdoor use. Calculate the corresponding
equivalent feet of vent pipe.
4 − Determine the length of straight pipe required.
5 − Add the total equivalent feet calculated in steps 1
through 4 and compare that length to the maximum
values given in table 6 for the proposed vent pipe diameter. If the total equivalent length required exceeds
the maximum equivalent length listed in the appropriate table, evaluate the next larger size pipe.

Joint Cementing Procedure
All cementing of joints should be done according to the
specifications outlined in ASTM D 2855.
WARNING
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 fitting socket and result in a
leaking joint.
3 − Clean and dry surfaces to be joined.
4 − Test fit joint and mark depth of fitting 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 fitting and male end of pipe to depth of fitting
socket.
NOTE − Furnace flue collar and air inlet fitting are both
made of ABS material. Use transition solvent cement
when bonding ABS to either PVC or CPVC, refer to the
procedure specified in ASTM D3138..
6 − Promptly apply solvent cement to end of pipe and in-
side socket surface of fitting. 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.
NOTE − Time is critical at this stage. Do not allow primer to dry before applying cement.
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.
NOTE − Assembly should be completed within 20 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 fitting socket. A properly made joint will show a
bead around its entire perimeter. Any gaps may indicate a defective assembly due to insufficient solvent.
9 − Handle joints carefully until completely set.
Page 20
Page 21
Venting Practices
The thickness of construction through which vent pipes
may be installed is 24" (610mm) maximum and 3" (76mm)
minimum. If a G61MP furnace replaces a 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 flue 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.
1 − Use recommended piping materials for exhaust pip-
ing.
2 − Secure all joints so that they are gas-tight using ap-
proved cement.
Suspend piping using hangers at a minimum of every 5
feet (1.52m) for schedule
40 PVC and every 3 feet
(.91m) for ABS−DWV, PVC−
DWV, SPR−21 PVC, and
SDR−26 PVC piping. A suitable hanger can be fabricated by using metal or
plastic strapping or a large
wire tie.
3 − 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.
STRAPPING
(metal, plastic
or large wire
ties)
FIGURE 22
4 − Isolate piping at the point where it exits the outside wall
or roof in order to prevent transmission of vibration to
the structure.
5 − 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.
Exhaust Piping
NOTE − A 2" diameter PVC street ell is located on the
blower deck of 48C−110, 60C−110 and 60C−111 units. Inupflow or downflow applications the street ell must be
glued using transition solvent cement directly into the
unit flue collar. See figure 23. A 3" to 2" PVC reducing ell is
located on the blower deck of the 60D−135 units. In up-
flow or downflow applications, the reducing ell must
be glued using transition solvent cement directly into the
unit flue collar.
1 − Choose the appropriate side for venting in upflow or
downflow positions. Exhaust piping exits from the top
of the unit in horizontal air discharge applications.
Glue the field−provided exhaust vent pipe (or provided
street ell or reducing ell in upflow or downflow applications) to the flue collar. All PVC cement joints should
be made according to the specifications outlined in
ASTM D 2855. Refer to pipe and fittings specifications
and gluing procedures.

IMPORTANT
Exhaust piping and condensate trap must be
installed on the same side of the unit in upflow and
dowflow applications or use alternate drain kit
76M20.
2 − All horizontal runs of exhaust pipe must slope back to-
ward unit. A minimum of 1/4" (6mm) drop for each 12"
(305mm) of horizontal run is mandatory for drainage.
Horizontal runs of exhaust piping must be supported every 5 feet (1.52m) using hangers.
NOTE − Exhaust piping should be checked carefully to
make sure there are no sags or low spots.
3 − On the opposite side of the cabinet, glue the provided
2" ABS vent plug into the unused ABS flue collar with
ABS or all purpose solvent cement.
4 − Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with
installation following instructions given in piping termination section.
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.
CAUTION
The exhaust vent pipe operates under positive pressure and must be completely sealed to prevent leakage of combustion products into the living space.
Intake Piping
The G61MP furnace may be installed in either direct vent
or non−direct vent applications. In non−direct vent applica-
tions, 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.
The G61MP unit is designed for either left−side or right−side
air intake connections in either upflow or downflow applications. In horizontal applications, air intake must be brought
in through the top. Intake air piping is independent of exhaust piping.
Follow the next four steps when installing the unit in directvent applications, where combustion air is taken from outdoors and flue gases are discharged outdoors. The pro-
vided air intake screen must not be used in direct vent applications.
1 − Use transition solvent cement to connect PVC pipe to
the ABS slip connector located on the side of the burner box.
2 − Use a #7 sheet metal screw to secure the intake pipe to
the connector, if desired. A pilot indentation is provided in
the slip connector to assist in locating and starting the fastener.
3 − Glue the provided 2" ABS plug into the unused ABS air
intake connector on the opposite side of the cabinet with
ABS all pupose cement.
4 − Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with instal-
lation following instructions given in general guide lines for
piping terminations and in intake and exhaust piping terminations for direct vent sections. Refer to figure 25 for
pipe sizes.

General Guidelines for Vent Terminations
In Non-Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken
from indoors and the flue gases are discharged to the outdoors. The G61MP is then classified as a non-direct vent,
Category IV gas furnace.
In Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken from
outdoors and the flue gases are discharged to the outdoors. The G61MP is then classified 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 29
or 30. 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 a condensing unit because
the condensate can damage the painted coating.
NOTE − If winter design temperature is below 32°F (0°C),
exhaust piping should be insulated with 1/2" (13mm), Armaflex or equivalent when run through unheated space.
Do not leave any surface area of exhaust pipe open to outside air; exterior exhaust pipe should be insulated with 1/2"
(13mm) Armaflex or equivalent. In extreme cold climate
areas, 3/4" (19mm) Armaflex or equivalent may be necessary. Insulation on outside runs of exhaust pipe must be
painted or wrapped to protect insulation from deterioration.
Exhaust pipe insulation may not be necessary in some
specific applications.
NOTE − During extremely cold temperatures, below
approximately 20°F (6.7°C), units with long runs of vent
pipe through unconditioned space, even when insulated,
may form ice in the exhaust termination that prevents the
unit from operating properly. Longer run times of at least 5
minutes will alleviate most icing problems. Also, a heating
cable may be installed on exhaust piping and termination to
prevent freeze−ups. Heating cable installation kit is available from Lennox. See Condensate Piping section for part
numbers.
IMPORTANT
Do not use screens or perforated metal in exhaust
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
Direct Vent Installations
NOTE − In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken
from outdoors and flue gases are discharged to outdoors.
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. Figures 31 through 39 show typical terminations.
1 − Exhaust and intake exits must be in same pressure
zone. Do not exit one through the roof and one on the
side. Also, do not exit the intake on one side and the
exhaust on another side of the house or structure.
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.
3 − If necessary, install a field−provided reducer to adapt
larger vent pipe size to termination pipe size.
4 − On roof terminations, the intake piping should termi-
nate straight down using two 90° elbows (See figure
31).
5 − Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. In rooftop applications, 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.
6 − On field supplied terminations for side wall exits, ex-
haust piping should extend a minimum of 12 inches
(305mm) beyond the outside wall. Intake piping
should be as short as possible. See figure 32.
7 − On field supplied terminations, a minimum separation
distance between the end of the exhaust pipe and the
end of the intake pipe is 8 inches (203mm).
8 − If intake and exhaust piping must be run up a side wall
to position above snow accumulation or other obstructions, piping must be supported every 3 ft. (.9m) as
shown in figure 22. Refer to figure 35 for proper piping
method. In addition, WTK wall termination kit must be
extended for use in this application. See figure 38.
When exhaust and intake piping must be run up an
outside wall, the exhaust piping is reduced to 1−1/2"
(38mm) after the final elbow. 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.
9 − Based on the recommendation of the manufacturer, a
multiple furnace installation may use a group of up to
four termination kits WTK assembled together horizontally, as shown in figure 37.

1 − Determine which side condensate piping will exit the
unit. Remove plugs from the condensate collar at the
appropriate location on the side of the unit.
NOTE − The condensate trap is factory−shipped with
two rubber O−rings and two rubber clean−out caps
installed. Check to make sure that these items are in
place before installing the trap assembly.
2 − Install condensate trap onto the condensate collar.
Use provided HI/LO screws to secure two upper
flanges of the trap to the collar. Use provided sheet
metal screw to secure bottom trap flange to side of
unit. DO NOT apply glue to secure condensate trapto cabinet. All other joints must be glued. See figure
45.
NOTE − In upflow and downflow applications, condensate trap must be installed on the same side as
exhaust piping.
NOTE − Do not discharge exhaust gases directly into any chimney or vent stack. If vertical discharge through an existing unused chimney or stack is required, insert piping
inside chimney until the pipe open end is above top of chimney and terminate as illustrated. In any exterior portion of chimney, the exhaust vent must be insulated.

Condensate Piping
This unit is designed for either right- or left-side exit of condensate piping in either upflow or downflow applications;
however, it must be installed on the same side of the unit as
the exhaust piping. In horizontal applications, the conden-
CAUTION
DO NOT use a power driver to tighten screws which
secure condensate trap to cabinet. Screws should
be hand−tightened using a screw driver to avoid the
possibility of damage to the trap assembly.
3 − The condensate trap provided with the unit is
manufactured using ABS material. Use ABS to PVC
transition solvent cement to glue a field−provided PVC
coupling or PVC pipe to the trap. Install a tee and vent
pipe near the trap.
Page 31
Page 32
NOTE − The condensate trap drain stubs (both sides)
have an outer diameter which will accept a standard
3/4" PVC coupling. The inner diameter of each stub
will accept standard 1/2" diameter PVC pipe.
NOTE − Vinyl tubing may be used for condensate
drain. Tubing must be 1−1/4" OD X 1" ID and should be
attached to the drain stubs on the trap using a hose
clamp.
4 − Glue the field−provided drain line to the tee. Route the
drain line to an open drain. As an alternate, clear vinyl
tubing may be used to drain condensate away from
the trap. Secure the vinyl tubing to the drain stubs on
the trap using a hose clamp. Do not overtighten the
hose clamp.
Condensate line must be sloped downward away from
condensate trap to drain. If drain level is above condensate trap, condensate pump must be used. Condensate drain line should be routed within the conditioned space to avoid freezing of condensate and
blockage of drain line. If this is not possible, a heat
cable kit may be used on the condensate trap and line.
Heating cable kit is available from Lennox in various
lengths; 6 ft. (1.8m) − kit no. 26K68; 24 ft. (7.3m) − kit
no. 26K69; and 50 ft. (15.2m) − kit no. 26K70.

WARNING
Do not exceed 600 in−lbs (50 ft−lbs) torque 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
figure 48.
2 − When connecting gas supply, factors such as length of
run, number of fittings 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 48.
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 figures 55 and 56.
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.
ISOLATE
GAS VALVE
CAP
FIGURE 46
Leak Check
After gas piping is completed, carefully check all piping
connections (factory− and field−installed) for gas leaks. Use
a leak detecting solution or other preferred means.
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 lessthan 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 46. Gas
valves can be damaged if subjected to pressures
greater than 1/2 psig (3.48 kPa).
WARNING
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death, or property damage.
Never use an open flame to test for gas leaks. Check
all connections using a commercially available soap
solution made specifically for leak detection.Some
soaps used for leak detection are corrosive to certain
metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after leak
test has been completed.
NOTE − Capacity given in cubic feet of gas per hour (kilo liters of gas per hour) and based on 0.60 specific gravity gas.

Integrated Control Board
G61MP units are equipped with a two−stage integrated
control. This control manages ignition timing and fan off
delays 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.
DIP Switch Settings −− Figure 53
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 two−
stage thermostat. If a single−stage thermostat is to be used,
the DIP switch must be repositioned.
a − Select OFF" for two−stage heating operation con-
trolled by a two−stage heating thermostat (factory setting);
b − Select ON" for two−stage heating operation con-
trolled 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 deter-
mine 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 10−minute delay before second−
stage heat is initiated. If the switch is toggled to the ON
position, it will provide a 15−minute delay before second−
stage heat is initiated. This switch is only activated when
the thermostat selector jumper is positioned for SINGLE−
stage thermostat use.
Switches 3 and 4 −− Heating Blower−Off Delay −− The
heating blower−on delay of 45 seconds is not adjustable.
The heating blower−off delay (time that the blower operates
after the heating demand has been satisfied) can be adjusted by moving switches 3 and 4 on the integrated control
board. The unit is shipped from the factory with a heating
blower−off delay of 90 seconds. The heating 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 11 provides the blower off timings that will result from different
switch settings.

On−Board Jumper W951 −− Figure 53
On−board jumper W951, which connects terminals R and O
on the integrated control board, must be cut when the furnace is installed in applications which include a heat pump
unit and a thermostat which features dual fuel use. If the
jumper is left intact, terminal O" will remain energized eliminating the HEAT MODE in the heat pump.
On−Board Jumper W915 −− Figure 53
On−board jumper W915, which connects terminals Y1 and
Y2 on the integrated control board, must be cut if two−stage
cooling will be used. If the jumper is not cut the outdoor unit
will operate in first−stage cooling only.

FOR YOUR SAFETY READ BEFORE OPERATING
WARNING
Do not use this furnace if any part has been underwater. A flood−damaged furnace is extremely dangerous. Attempts to use the furnace can result in
fire or explosion. Immediately call a qualified 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. Should
the gas supply fail to shut off or if
overheating occurs, shut off the gas
valve to the furnace before shutting off
the electrical supply.
Page 42
Page 43
CAUTION
Before attempting to perform any service or maintenance, turn the electrical power to unit OFF at disconnect switch.
Priming Condensate Trap
The condensate trap should be primed with water prior to
start−up to ensure proper condensate drainage. Either
pour 10 fl. 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 op-
eration.
2 − Set the thermostat to initiate a heating demand.
3 − Allow the burners to fire for approximately 3 minutes.
4 − Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating de-
mand.
5 − Wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. Set the
thermostat to initiate a heating demand and again allow the burners to fire for approximately 3 minutes.
6 − Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating de-
mand and again wait for the combustion air inducer to
stop. At this point, the trap should be primed with sufficient water to ensure proper condensate drain operation.
BEFORE LIGHTING the unit, smell all around the furnace area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the
floor.
The gas valve on the G61MP will be be equipped with a
gas control switch (lever). Use only your hand to move
the switch. 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 fire or explosion.
Placing the furnace into operation:
G61MP units are equipped with an automatic 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 units with this ignition
system.
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 upper access panel.
6 − White Rodgers 36E Gas Valve − Move gas valve
switch to OFF. See figure 55 for the White Rodgers
36E valve.
Honeywell VR8205 Gas Valve − Move switch on gas
valve clockwise to OFF. Do not force. See figure
56.
7 − Wait five 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 instruc-
tions. If you do not smell gas go to next step.

Gas Pressure Adjustment
Gas Flow (Approximate)
1 − Operate unit at least 15 minutes before checking gas
flow. Determine the time in seconds for one revolutions of gas through the meter. A portable LP gas meter (17Y44) is available for LP applications.
2 − Compare the number of seconds and the gas meter
size in table 12 to determine the gas flow rate. Multiply
the gas flow rate by the heating value to determine the
unit input rate. If manifold pressure is correct and the
unit input rate is incorrect, check gas orifices for proper
size and restriction.
3 − Remove temporary gas meter if installed.
NOTE − To obtain accurate reading, shut off all other gas
appliances connected to meter.
Supply Pressure Measurement
A threaded plug on the inlet side of the gas valve provides
access to the supply pressure tap. Remove the threaded
plug, install a field−provided barbed fitting and connect a
manometer to measure supply pressure. Replace the
threaded plug after measurements have been taken.
Manifold Pressure Measurement
To correctly measure manifold pressure, the differential
pressure between the positive gas manifold and the negative burner box must be considered. Use pressure test
adapter kit (available as Lennox part 10L34) to assist in
measurement.
1 − Remove the threaded plug from the outlet side of the
gas valve and install a field−provided barbed fitting.
Connect test gauge +" connection to barbed fitting to
measure manifold pressure.
2 − Tee into the gas valve regulator vent hose and connect
3 − Start unit on low heat (68% rate) and allow 5 minutes
for unit to reach steady state.
4 − While waiting for the unit to stabilize, notice the flame.
Flame should be stable and should not lift from burner.
Natural gas should burn blue.
5 − After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in table
13.
6 − Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 on high heat.
NOTE − Shut unit off and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained. Take care to remove
barbed fitting and replace threaded plug.

Testing for Proper Venting and Sufficient Combustion Air for Non−Direct Vent Applications
sufficient combustion/make-up air must be provided.
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 G61MP gas furnace has been started, the following test should be conducted to ensure proper venting and
sufficient combustion air has been provided to the G61MP,
as well as to other gas-fired appliances which are separately vented.
If a G61MP 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 flue 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 sufficient 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 deficiencies
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 lo-
cated and other spaces of the building.
4 − Close fireplace dampers.
5 − Turn on clothes dryers and any appliances not con-
nected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust
fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so
they will operate at maximum speed. Do not 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 flame of match or candle to test for spillage of
flue gases at the draft hood relief opening after 5 min-
utes of main burner operation.
8 − If improper venting is observed during any of the
above tests, the venting system must be corrected or
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, fireplace dampers
and any other gas-burning appliance to their previous
condition of use.
Other Unit Adjustments
Primary and Secondary Limits
The primary limit is located on the heating compartment
vestibule panel. The secondary limits are located in the
blower compartment, attached to the back side of the blower. These limits are factory set and require no adjustment.
Flame Rollout Switches (Two)
These manually reset switches are located on the burner
box. If tripped, check for adequate combustion air before
resetting.
Pressure Switches (Two or Four)
The pressure switches are located in the heating compartment on the combustion air inducer. These switches check
for proper combustion air inducer operation before allowing ignition trial. The switches are factory−set and require
no adjustment.
Back−Up Secondary Limit (090, 110 & 135 Models)
The back−up secondary limit is located on the combustion
air inducer. This switch protects the plastic components
from overheating due to indoor blower motor failure. If
tripped, check for proper blower operation before resetting.
Temperature Rise
After the furnace has been started and supply and return air
temperatures have been allowed to stabilize, check the
temperature rise. If necessary, adjust the blower speed to
maintain the temperature rise within the range shown on
the unit nameplate. Increase the blower speed to decrease
the temperature. Decrease the blower speed to increase
the temperature rise. Failure to do adjust the temperature
rise may cause erratic limit operation.
Thermostat Heat Anticipation
Set the heat anticipator setting (if adjustable) according to
the amp draw listed on the wiring diagram that is attached
to the unit.
Electrical
1 − Check all wiring for loose connections.
Page 46
Page 47
2 − Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (furnace
operating).
3 − Check amp-draw on the blower motor.
Motor Nameplate__________Actual__________
NOTE − Do not secure the electrical conduit directly to the
air ducts or structure.
Blower Speeds
NOTE − CFM readings are taken external to unit with a dry
evaporator coil and without accessories.
1 − Turn off electrical power to furnace.
2 − Remove blower access panel.
3 − Disconnect existing speed tap at control board speed
terminal.
NOTE − Termination of any unused motor leads must be
insulated.
4 − Refer to blower speed selection chart on unit wiring dia-
gram for desired heating or cooling speed. See blower
performance data beginning on Page 48.
5 − Connect selected speed tap at control board speed
terminal.
6 − Resecure blower access panel.
7 − Turn on electrical power to furnace.
Electronic Ignition
The integrated control 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. This type of lockout is usually due to low gas line pres-
sure. 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.
Exhaust and Air Intake Pipe
1 − Check exhaust and air intake connections for tightness
and to make sure there is no blockage.
2 − Are pressure switches closed? Obstructed exhaust
pipe will cause unit to shut off at pressure switches.
Check termination for blockages.
3 − Reset manual flame rollout switches on burner box
cover.
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?
5 − Is the filter dirty or plugged? Dirty or plugged filters 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 lock out? If the unit locks out
again, inspect the unit for blockages.

Heating Sequence of Operation
NOTE − The thermostat selection DIP switch on the control
board is factory−set in the TWO−STAGE" position.
Applications Using a Two−Stage Thermostat
A − Heating Sequence −− Control Board Thermostat
Selection DIP switch in Two−Stage" Position (Factory
Setting)
1 − On a call for heat, thermostat first−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 and the humidifier terminal is energized.
2 − Once the control receives a signal that the low−fire
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 ig-
nitor 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 fire (first stage) and ignition occurs. At the same time, the control module sends a signal to begin an indoor blower 45−second ON−delay.
When the delay ends, the indoor blower motor is energized on the low fire heating speed. The furnace will
continue this operation as long as the thermostat has
a first−stage heating demand.
5 − If second−stage heat is required, the thermostat sec-
ond−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 con-
trol energizes the combustion air inducer at high
speed. The control also checks the high−fire (second
stage) pressure switch to make sure it is closed. Once
the the control receives a signal that the high−fire pressure switch is close, the high−fire (second stage) gas
valve is energized and the indoor blower motor is energized for operation at the high−fire heating speed.
7 − When the demand for high−fire (second stage) heat is
satisfied, the combustion air inducer is switched to the
low−fire heating speed and the high−fire (second
stage) gas valve is de−energized. The low−fire (first
stage) gas valve continues operation. The indoor
blower motor is switched to the low−fire heating speed.
8 − When the thermostat demand for low−fire (first stage)
heat is satisfied, the gas valve is de−energized and the
field−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 com-
plete, the inducer and humidifier terminal are de−energized. The indoor blower is de−energized at the end of
the off delay.

NOTE − In these applications, two−stage heat will be initiated by the integrated control if heating demand has not
been satisfied after the field adjustable period (10 or 15
minutes).
1 − On a call for heat, thermostat first−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 and the humidifier terminal is energized.
2 − Once the control receives a signal that the low−fire
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 ig-
nitor 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 fire (first stage) and ignition occurs. At the same time, the control module sends a signal to begin an indoor blower 45−second ON−delay.
When the delay ends, the indoor blower motor is energized on the low−fire heating speed. The integrated
control also initiates a second−stage on delay (factory−
set at 10 minutes; adjustable to 15 minutes).
5 − If the heating demand continues beyond the second−
stage on delay, the integrated control energizes the
combustion air inducer at high speed. The control also
checks the high−fire (second stage) pressure switch to
make sure it is closed. Once the control receives a signal the high−fire pressure switch is closed, the high−fire
(second stage) gas valve is energized and the indoor
blower motor is energized for operation at the high−fire
heating speed.
6 − When the thermostat heating demand is satisfied, the-
combustion air inducer begins a 5−second post−purge.
The field−selected indoor blower off delay begins.
7 − When the combustion air post−purge period is com-
plete, the inducer and humidifier terminal are de−energized. The indoor blower is de−energized at the end of

Planned Service
A service technician should check the following items during an annual inspection. Power to the unit must be shut off
for safety.
Fresh air grilles and louvers (on the unit and in the room
where the furnace is installed) − Must be open and unobstructed to provide combustion air.
Return air duct − Must be properly attached and provide
an air seal to the unit.
Operating performance − Unit must be observed during
operation to monitor proper performance of the unit and the
vent system.
Combustion gases − Flue products must be analyzed and
compared to the unit specifications.
Burners − Must be inspected for rust, dirt, or signs of water.
Vent pipe − Must be inspected for signs of water, damaged,
cracked or sagging pipe, or disconnected joints.
Unit appearance − Must be inspected for rust, dirt, signs
of water, burnt or damaged wires, or components.
Blower access door − Must be properly in place and provide a seal between the return air and the room where the
furnace is installed.
Problems detected during the inspection may make it necessary to temporarily shut down the furnace until the items
can be repaired or replaced.
Instruct the homeowners to pay attention to their
furnace. Situations can arise between annual furnace in-
spections that may result in unsafe operation. For instance,
items innocently stored next to the furnace may obstruct
the combustion air supply. This could cause incomplete
combustion and the production of carbon monoxide gas.
