The purpose of this manual is to give the contractor guidelines for installing the Lifebreath Clean Air Furnace. All
national and local codes relating to this type of equipment
must be followed.
Locating The Unit
The Clean Air Furnace is designed to be installed vertically, in a conditioned space,where the surrounding
temperature does not fall below 50°F (10°C). Attic installations are not recommended. Typically the unit is installed
in a mechanical area of the basement, or other
partitioned mechanical room, elsewhere in the home.
A location close to an outside wall is recommended, as
the ventilation supply and exhaust portion will need to be
ducted to the outside air.
Sufficient clearance around the unit is required for service
of the filter, heat recovery core and components.
Duct Connections
To accommodate various installations, the Clean Air
Furnace has knockouts for the return air plenum and ventilation ducts, on both sides of the cabinet. Special care
and attention should be given to determining which knockouts are to be removed. (See Fig. 2 & Fig. 3).
Slide Heat Recovery Core out to remove ventilation
knockouts. Never install ductwork directly to the cabinet
that is smaller than the opening provided.

NOTE: Return plenum opening can be on either side of cabinet and is not dependent on which side the ventilation ports are on.
