(152mm)
For best results, the heater should be placed with certain rules in mind. In general, a unit should
be located from 8 to 12 ft (2.6 to 3.6M) above the floor. Units should always be arranged to blow
toward or along exposed wall surfaces, if possible. Where two or more units are installed in the
same room, a general scheme of air circulation should be maintained.
Suspended heaters are most effective when located as close to the working zone as possible, and
this fact should be kept in mind when determining the mounting heights to be used. However,
avoid directing the discharged air directly on the room occupants.
Partitions, columns, counters, or other obstructions should be taken into consideration when
locating the unit heater so that a minimum quantity of airflow will be deflected by such obstacles.
When units are located in the center of the space to be heated, the air should be discharged
toward the exposed walls. In large areas, units should be located to discharge air along exposed
walls with extra units provided to discharge air in toward the center of the area.
At those points where infiltration of cold air is excessive, such as at entrance doors and shipping
doors, it is desirable to locate the unit so that it will discharge directly toward the source of cold
air from a distance of 15 to 20 feet (4.5 to 6 M).

Model SCE has four-point suspension. See hanger centerline dimensions in FIGURE 1 ,
Paragraph 3.
At each suspension point, the unit is factory-equipped with a free-turning, female, 1" NPT
pipe hanger. Suspend by connecting the pipe hanger to a 1" threaded pipe. See suspension
method on the left in FIGURE 2 . As an alternative method, the factory-installed pipe hanger
may be removed and the heater suspended as illustrated on the right in FIGURE 2.
Model SCE requires six support locations. See FIGURE 3 .
Supports available from the manufacturer (P/N 74487) or eld-fabricated legs as illustrated in
FIGURE 4 may be used at the four corner support locations. Do not use this type of support
at the center support locations (between the furnace and the blower section). At the center
locations, a eld-fabricated, angle-iron brace support must extend horizontally, jointly supporting a portion of both the furnace and the blower cabinet. All supports must be noncombustible.
Field-supplied supports between
the blower cabinet and the furnace
must extend horizontally supporting both sections.
Model SCE furnaces are for installation upstream or downstream from a cooling coil.
When installed downstream from a refrigeration system, condensation will form; and therefore, adequate provision must be made to dispose of condensate.
Periodic cleaning of the condensate collection and disposal system is required.
Install drain connection, Option CS1, on the furnace casing as illustrated in FIGURE 5.

90° street elbow is used.
Requirements and Suggestions for Connecting and Installing Ducts
•
Type of Ductwork - The type of duct installation to be used depends in part on the type of construction of the roof (whether
wood joist, steelbar joist, steel truss, pre-cast concrete) and the ceiling (whether hung,
etc.).
• Ductwork Material - Rectangular duct should be constructed of not lighter than No. 26 U.S. gauge galvanized iron or No. 24 B
& S gauge aluminum.
• Ductwork Structure - All duct sections 24 inches (610mm) or wider, and over 48 inches (1219mm) in length, should be cross
broken on top and bottom and should have standing seams or angle-iron braces. Joints should be S and drive strip, or locked.
• Through Masonry Walls - No warm air duct should come in contact with masonry walls. Insulate around all air duct through
masonry walls with not less than 1/2" (1" is recommended) of insulation.
• Through Unheated Space - Insulate all exposed warm air ducts passing through an unheated space with at least 1/2" (1" is
recommended) of insulation.
• Duct Supports - Suspend all ducts securely from adjacent buildings members. Do not support ducts from unit duct connections.
• Duct Sizing - Proper sizing of the supply air ductwork is necessary to ensure a satisfactory heating installation. The recognized
authority for such information is the Air Conditioning Contractors Association, 2800 Shirlington Road, Suite 300, Arlington, VA
22206 (www.acca.org). A manual covering duct sizing in detail may be purchased directly from them.
CAUTION: An external duct system static pressure not within the limits shown on the rating
plate, or improper motor pulley or belt adjustment, may overload the motor. See Hazard Levels,
page 2.
• Removable Panels - The ducts should have removable access panels on both upstream and downstream sides of the furnace.
These openings must be accessible when the furnace is in service and should be a minimum of 6" x 10" (152mm x 254mm) in size
so smoke or light may be observed inside the casing to indicate the presence of leaks in the heat exchanger. The
covers for the openings must be attached in such a manner as to prevent leakage. See FIGURE 7A
• Horizontal Discharge Duct Length - A minimum horizontal duct run of 24" (610mm) is recommended before turns or branches
are made in the duct system to reduce losses at the furnace outlet.
• Supply Air Duct/Furnace Horizontal Connection - The seal between the furnace and the duct must be mechanical. Duct
connection should be made with "U" type
of the heater giving an airtight Provide "U" type channels for the side to ensure tight joints. Use sheetmetal screws
to fasten ducts and "U" channels to the furnace
Form RZ-NA I-SCE, Page 6
on the top and bottom of the connecting duct. Slide the duct over the
See FIGURE 7B
CAUTION: Joint where supply air duct attaches to the furnace must
be sealed securely to prevent air leakage into drafthood or burner
rack area. Leakage can cause poor combustion, pilot problems, shorten
heat exchanger life, and cause poor performance. See Hazard levels,
page 2.
• Return Air Duct/Furnace Connection - All return air ducts should be attached and
sealed to return air anges to provide airtight connection.
• Return Air Duct/Grill Size - Make certain that return air ducting or grills have a free
area equal to the return duct size connection.

9. Venting and
Combustion Air
WARNING: Do not use an
existing venting system.
This heater requires
installation of the
combustion air/vent system
ordered with the unit (either
Option CC2 or Option
CC6).
All separated combustion, power vented units MUST BE equipped with both combustion air
and exhaust piping to the outdoors. The unique concentric adapter box designed for use
with this heater allows for both combustion air and exhaust piping with only one horizontal
or vertical penetration hole in the building.
These instructions apply to installation and use of the concentric adapter and vent/combustion air kit (Option CC2 or CC6) designed for use with all Reznor separated-combustion
products. The systems illustrated in this manual are the only venting/combustion air systems approved for these separated combustion units. Do not use this concentric adapter box
with any other products.
Installation should be done by a qualied agency in accordance with these instructions. The
qualied service agency installing this separated-combustion system is responsible for the
installation.
Hazards of Chlorine - The presence of chlorine vapors in the combustion air of gas-red
heating equipment presents a potential corrosion hazard. Chlorine found usually in the form
of freon or degreaser vapors, when exposed to ame, will precipitate from the compound, and
go into solution with any condensation that is present in the heat exchanger or associated
parts. The result is hydrochloric acid which readily attacks all metals including 300 grade
stainless steel. Care should be taken to separate these vapors from the combustion process.
This may be done by wise location of unit vent terminal and combustion air inlet with regard
to exhausters or prevailing wind directions. Remember, chlorine is heavier than air. This fact
should be kept in mind when determining installation location of these heaters and building
exhaust systems.
WARNING: SC Series separated combustion units are not designed or
approved for use in atmospheres containing ammable vapors or
atmospheres highly laden with chlorinated vapors. See Hazard Levels,
page 2.
