For direct vent applications either the combustion air duct provided with the MA Series base kit or the direct vent kit can be used. The direct vent kit must be ordered separately. Only for a special CB-200A cottage base installation can the CMF draw the combustion air from the conditioned space. The CB-200A cottage base kit must be ordered separately. Refer to the replacement parts listing provided with the furnace to order the direct vent kit or the cottage base kit. Follow the instructions provided with the kits for proper installation.
When unsure about combustion air supply availability, a direct vent system should be used. For small rooms, confined spaces, tight construction or similar situations in which the combustion air requirements of the furnace might not be met, a direct vent system must be used. The air openings in the door of the unit and the warm air registers from the ductwork or base must not be restricted.
Combustion air must not be drawn from a contaminated atmosphere. Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will result in safety and performance related problems. Some examples of chemical contaminants are chlorine, fluorine, and sulfur, which can be found in a wide variety of some common commercial and household products.
The installation of the furnace must allow for an adequate supply of combustion air. The combustion air opening of the furnace must be designed and located to prevent blockage by snow.
When drawing the combustion air from underneath the home, ensure that a vent or duct of at least 18 square inches of free area is provided from outside. Check to ensure that the combustion air opening is unobstructed. When using the combustion air duct, ensure that it extends through the floor. When using the direct vent kit, the combustion air opening must be located in the same pressure zone as the flue exit of the roof jack or chimney. Refer to the instructions provided with the direct vent kit for more information.
Venting Requirements — Residential Installations
!
WARNING:
This furnace is not to be connected to a chimney flue serving a separate appli­ance designed to burn solid fuel.
For residential applications (Refer to Table 1), the CMF furnace may be vented through the SRJ series roofjack or through an existing chimney. If the SRJ roofjack is to be used, then the instructions for selecting the proper roofjack for your installation are detailed later in these instructions. If venting through an existing chimney, then the venting system used must be in accordance with these instructions, all applicable local building codes, ANSI Z223.1/ NFPA 54 (National Fuel Gas Code), ANSI/ NFPA 31 (Installation of Oil-Burning Equipment), and NFPA 211 (Chimneys, Fireplaces, Vents, and Solid Fuel-Burning Appliances).
!
WARNING:
When venting through a chimney, check the chimney for soot, leaks, obstruc­tions, and proper installation.
The materials used to construct the venting system must be capable of withstanding exposure to temperatures of at least 700 degrees F. The existing chimney servicing this furnace must be vertical. Horizontal distances to an existing chimney must be as short as possible, and the connecting pipe must slope upward to the chimney at not less than a 45 degree angle. The total length of the sloping pipe must not exceed 6 feet. The venting system must have no obstructions or sharp bends where soot and other foreign matter can accumulate.
If an inspection determines that the chimney is obstructed, the chimney must be cleaned. Furthermore, the connecting flue pipe must be cleaned or replaced.
Venting Requirements — Manufactured Housing Installations
For all manufactured housing applications, the CMF furnace must be vented using the SRJ series roofjack. The instructions for selecting the proper roofjack for your installation are detailed later in these instructions.
For ONLY a CMF power oil furnace installation vented into an existing chimney, a barometric damper can be installed at the vent connection of the furnace to regulate the draft. The barometric damper must be properly installed per the manufacturers instructions. Refer to all applicable codes to determine whether or not a
3
barometric damper can be used for your CMF power oil furnace installation. The barometric damper used must be installed such that air from the conditioned space can only enter the flue passageway. Do not use a double acting barometric damper. All flue pipe joints should be fastened with sheet metal screws for rigidity.
The chimney height, required draft, and number of appliances served by the chimney must be in accordance with all applicable codes. To prevent down draft, the chimney should extend at least two feet above the peak of the roof.
( c ) In so far as is practical, close all building
doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliance(s) con­nected to the venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not con­nected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they shall operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
It is recommended that the furnace flue serve no other appliances. When the chimney serves only the furnace, the flue area must be sized according to all applicable codes. The minimum internal area of the flue must be equal to at least the area of the furnace flue exit.
When two or more appliances must vent through a common flue, the area of the common flue should be sized in accordance with all applicable codes.
When an existing furnace is removed or replaced in a venting system, then the venting system may not be properly sized to vent the attached appliances. The venting system must be checked to ensure proper venting. Improperly sized venting systems can result in the formation of condensate, leakage, spillage, et cetera. Refer to the ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, (National Fuel Gas Code), and ANSI/NFPA 31( Installation of Oil Burning Equipment) for correcting any improperly operating venting system.
The following steps shall be followed with each appliance connected to the venting system placed in operation, while any other appliances connected to the venting system are not in operation:
(a ) Seal any unused openings in the venting
system.
(b) Inspect the venting system for proper size
and horizontal pitch, as required in the ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, (National Fuel Gas Code) and ANSI/NFPA 31 (Installation of Oil Burning Equipment), and these instruc­tions. Determine that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion or other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
(d) Follow the lighting instructions. Place the
appliance being inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so appliance shall oper­ate continuously.
(e) Test for draft hood equipped appliance
spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
(f) After it has been determined that each
appliance connected to the venting sys­tem properly vents when tested as out­lined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance to their previ­ous conditions of use.

MA-200 Base Installation
The MA-200 base is designed for O.E.M. and replacement installation of the CMF series fur­nace (see Figures 2 and 3). The warm air duct system should be designed so the duct static pressure external to the furnace does not exceed the static pressure listed on the furnace data label.
Use the base pan to mark the 12-1/8" x 12-1/ 8" center opening for the feeder duct. When the 4" offset feeder duct is used, the floor opening will be offset 4 inches from the opening in the main duct. If using the combustion air duct, select and knock out the combustion air open­ing to be used. Then mark the 2-1/4" x 7-1/4" opening for the combustion air duct.
Cut the opening for the feeder duct 14-1/8" x 14­1/8" in flooring (cutting opening 1" larger all the way will allow the flanges on the underside of the base pan to fit in the opening).

If a “V” or “U”-box crossover system is to be used, see the instructions provided with the crossover system.
Combustion Air Duct/Pipe Installation
The CMF furnace must draw the combustion air from outside, except for special installations (See Table 1). This can be accomplished either by using the 2X7 rectangular combustion air duct provided in the MA series base kits or using the direct vent kit.
When the rectangular combustion air duct is to be used, install the combustion air duct through the selected knockout in the base. For direct vent applications, the rear knock-out in the furnace base cannot be used. After the combustion air duct has been positioned, install the combustion air adapter. This adapter will transition the 2X7 opening of the combustion air duct to the 2 diameter of the burner flexible tubing. This adapter is included in the MA series base kits. For retrofit applications in which the MA series base is already installed, the combustion air adapter can be ordered as a kit. Refer to the Replacement Parts List for more details on ordering this kit. Secure the adapter with either wood or metal fasteners (field provided), depending upon the particular installation. Ensure that the gasket for the adapter is positioned properly before installing the adapter. Attach the flexible hose from the burner to the combustion air adapter using the provided metal hose clamp.
When the direct vent kit is used, follow the instructions provided with the kit. Note: The direct vent kit should be installed before positioning the furnace on the base.
Damper Installation
An automatic shut-off damper is available (see replacement parts list). An automated shut off damper is required when the home is air con­ditioned by a self-contained unit. This damper is designed to fit in the feeder duct cavity, directly under the furnace. A damper is required to prevent chilled air from flowing over the furnace heat exchanger. For proper installa­tion, refer to the instructions provided with the damper.
Installation of Furnace onto the MA-200 Base
Lift the furnace over the base so that the flange at the back comes to rest on the inside rails of the base.
Raise the front of the furnace to clear the gasket on the bottom of the furnace and slide the back until the rear flange drops into the channel at the rear of the base. Be careful not to damage the combustion air adapter, if present, while posi­tioning the unit.
Be sure that the furnace is all the way back so as to engage the tabs on the rear flange on the base.
Open the access door. Fasten the front of the furnace and the base to the floor with #8 x 1/2" long sheet metal screws.
Using the provided hose clamp, secure the flexible combustion air tubing from the burner to the combustion air adapter.
Installation of Furnace onto the MA-100 Base
Tilt the furnace forward and carefully work the furnace back over the MA-100 Universal base.
Lift the furnace as necessary when positioning the unit over the base assembly to prevent any damage to the feeder duct assembly and com­bustion air adapter, if present.
Be sure the furnace is positioned all the way to the back of the base assembly.
Open the furnace door and fasten the furnace to the base using #8 x 1/2" long sheet metal screws.

Using the provided hose clamp, secure the flexible combustion air tubing from the burner to the combustion air adapter.
CB-200A Cottage Base Installation
The CMF can be installed on a CB-200A cottage base in certain applications, as described earlier in these instructions (See Table 1). Refer to the Replacement Parts List for information on ordering this base. For installation, refer to the instructions that are provided with the CB-200A base kit.
Closet Installation of the Furnace
Return air systems for a closet installation of the furnace may consist of a grille or grilles in a closet door or side wall that communicates with the living area of the home. (See Figure 6) Return air openings should not be located to draw air directly from a bathroom. Grilles placed in a side wall require a 6" clear­ance from the wall to the furnace so that the air may enter the front grille of the furnace. In addition, all return air systems, including the floor and ceiling systems, must meet the follow­ing conditions:
E. Materials located in the return duct system
shall have a flame spread classification of 200 or less.
F. Noncombustible pans having one inch
upturned flanges are located beneath openings in a floor return duct system.
G . Hollow spaces used as ducts or plenums
for environmental air may contain mineral­insulated metal sheathed cable, aluminum sheathed cable, electrical metallic tubing, rigid metal conduit, flexible metal conduit not to exceed four (4) feet, or metal-clad cables. Wiring materials, fixtures, are to be suitable for the expected ambient temperatures to which they will be sub­jected.
H. Gas piping cannot be located in the return
duct system.
I. The negative pressure in the closet must
not be less than minus 0.05 inches water column with the closet door closed and the fan operating at high speed. A reading below minus 0.05" indicates a dirty filter or a restricted return air system.
A. The return-air opening into the closet,
regardless of its location, is to be a mini­mum of 200 square inches.
B. If the return-air opening is located in the
floor of the closet (versus the vertical front or side wall), the opening is to be provided with means to prevent its inadvertent clo­sure by a flat object placed over the open­ing.
C. The cross-sectional area of the return
duct system (when located in the floor or ceiling of the manufactured home) leading into the closet is to be not less than 200 square inches.
D. The total free area of the openings in the
floor or the ceiling registers serving the return air duct system is to be not less than 300 square inches. At least one such register is to be located where the likeli­hood of its being covered by carpeting, boxes, and other objects is minimized.
