General Information
GENERAL INFORMATION
NOTE: A heat loss calculation should be performed to properly
determine the required furnace BTU size for the structure. Also, the duct must be properly designed and installed for proper air­flow. Existing ductwork must be inspected for proper size and to make sure that it is properly sealed. Proper airflow is necessary for both user comfort and equipment performance.
Before opening the furnace carton, verify that the data tags on the carton specify the furnace model number that was ordered from the distributor and are correct for the installation. If not, return the unit without opening the carton. If the model number is correct, open the carton and verify that the furnace rating label specifies the same furnace model number that is speci­fied on the carton label. If the model numbers do not match, re­turn the furnace to the distributor .
IMPORTANT: Proper application, installation and maintenance of
this furnace and system is a must if consumers are to receive the full benefits for which they have paid.
The (-)801S/(-)801P series furnaces are design certified by CSA for use with natural and propane gases as follows:
As a Category I furnace, it may be vented vertically with type B­1 vent pipe and also may be common vented as described in these instructions.
This furnace should be installed in accordance with the American National Standard Z223.1 - latest edition booklet entitled “National Fuel Gas Code” (NFPA 54), and the requirements or codes of the local utility or other authority having jurisdiction including local plumbing or waste water codes.

SAFETY
Safety Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT EFFICIENCY AND INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Central cooling and heating equipment is only as efficient as the duct system that carries the cooled or heated air. To maintain effi­ciency, comfort and good indoor air quality, it is important to have the proper balance between the air being supplied to each room and the air returning to the cooling and heating equipment.
Proper balance and sealing of the duct system improves the effi­ciency of the heating and air conditioning system and improves the indoor air quality of the home by reducing the amount of air­borne pollutants that enter homes from spaces where the duct­work and / or equipment is located. The manufacturer and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star Program recommend that central duct systems be checked by a qualified contractor for proper balance and sealing.

6. IMPORTANT:
Support this unit when installed. For attic or cra wl space installation, horizontal furnaces may be installed on com­bustible wood flooring or by using support brackets. See Figure
3.
7. IMPORTANT:
If installing in a utility room, be sure the door is
wide enough to:
a. allow the largest part of the furnace to pass; or
b. allow any other appliance (such as a water heater) to pass.
SITE SELECTION
1. Select a site in the building near the center of the pro­posed, or existing, duct system.
2. Give consideration to the vent system piping when se­lecting the furnace location. Be sure the venting system can get from the furnace to the termination with minimal length and elbows.
3. Locate the furnace near the existing gas piping. Or, if running a new gas line, locate the furnace to minimize the length and elbows in the gas piping. See Figure 3.
4. Locate the furnace to maintain proper clearance to combustibles as shown in following Figure 4.
CLEARANCE – ACCESSIBILITY

Proper air flow is required for the correct operation of this furnace. Restricted air flow can cause erratic operation and can damage the heat exchanger. The duct system must carry the correct amount of air for heating and cooling if summer air conditioning is used.
IMPORTANT: When using outside air, design and adjust the system to maintain a return air temperature ABOVE 55° F during the heating season.
NOTE: Return air grilles and warm air registers must not be obstructed or closed.
UPFLO W INSTALLATIONS
1. Position the unit to minimize long runs of duct or runs of duct with many turns and elbows.
2. For side return: Cut an opening in the side. The open­ing should be cut the full width and height of the knockouts on the unit. See Figure 6.
3. If summer air conditioning is desired, position the in­door coil on the supply-air side of the unit. Ensure that no air can bypass the coil.
4. Connect the furnace to the supply air plenum. See Fig­ure 7.
5. Connect the return air ducting to the return-air opening at the bottom and/or side of the unit. Make the connec­tions air-tight to prevent the migration of toxic fumes and odors including carbon monoxide from migrating into the living space.
6. If a filter is installed near the furnace, be sure to have adequate space for installation and removal of the unit filter.
7. NOTE: Where the maximum airflow is 1800 CFM or more, BOTH sides or the bottom must be used for the return air. Do not take return air from the back of the unit.
NOTE: DO NOT take return air from furnace rooms, garages or cold areas. Avoid return air from utility rooms, kitchens, laundry rooms and bathrooms.

Combustion Air
COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR
1. IMPORTANT:
Air for combustion and ventilation must not come from a corrosive atmosphere. Any failure due to corro­sive elements in the atmosphere is excluded from warranty coverage.
2. Combustion air must be free of acid forming chemicals; such as sulphur, fluorine and chlorine. These elements are found in aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, air fresheners, paint and varnish removers, refrigerants and many other commercial and household products. Vapors from these products when burned in a gas flame form acid compounds. The acid compounds increase the dew point temperature of the flue products and are highly corrosive after they condense.
3. The following types of installation may require OUTDOOR AIR for combustion, due to chemical exposures:
• Commercial buildings
• Buildings with indoor pools
• Furnaces installed in laundry rooms
• Furnaces in hobby or craft rooms
• Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas.
4. If combustion air is exposed to the following substances (but not limited to the following), it should not be used and the fur­nace may require outdoor air for combustion.
• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine-based 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 curing and acid washing materials
Combustion air requirements are determined by whether the fur­nace is in an open (unconfined) area or in a confined space such as a closet or small room.
When the furnace is installed in the same space with other gas ap­pliances, such as a water heater, be sure there is an adequate supply of combustion and ventilation air for the furnace and the other appliances. Do not delete or reduce the combustion air sup­ply required by the other gas appliances in this space. See Z223.1, National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54). An unconfined space must have at least 50 cubic feet (volume) for each 1,000 BTUH of the total input of all appliances in the space. If the open space contain­ing the appliances is in a building with tight construction (contem­porary construction), outside air may still be required for the appliances to burn and vent properly. Outside air openings should be sized the same as for a confined space.
IMPORTANT: ONLY THE CURRENT VENT INSTRUCTIONS
APPLY. All gas furnaces cannot be common-vented.
OVERTEMPERATURE SAFETY SWITCHES
Furnaces are equipped with safety switches in the burner com­partment to protect against over-temperature conditions caused by inadequate combustion air supply. The switches are located in the burner compartment. If a switch is tripped it must be manu­ally reset after clearing the fault condition which caused it to open.
IMPORTANT:
This is not a direct vent furnace. Review venting
instructions before installing.
!
WARNING
THIS FURNACE AND ANY OTHER FUEL-BURNING APPLI­ANCE MUST BE PROVIDED WITH ENOUGH FRESH AIR FOR PROPER COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION OF THE FLUE GASES. MOST HOMES WILL REQUIRE THAT OUT­SIDE AIR BE SUPPLIED INTO THE FURNACE AREA. FAIL­URE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE DEATH FROM CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING.
!
WARNING
ADEQUATE FACILITIES FOR PROVIDING AIR FOR COM­BUSTION AND VENTILATION MUST BE PROVIDED IN AC­CORDANCE WITH SECTION 5.3, AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION, OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI, Z223.1 LATEST EDITION OR APPLICABLE PROVI­SIONS FOR THE LOCAL BUILDING CODES, AND NOT OBSTRUCTED SO AS TO PREVENT THE FLOW OF AIR TO THE FURNACE.
COMBUSTION AIR REQUIREMENTS

WARNING
ALL FURNACE INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE AND LOCAL CODES TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR FOR THE FURNACE. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CRE­ATE HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS RESULTING IN PROP­ERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR DEATH FROM SMOKE, FIRE OR CARBON MONOXIDE.
!
WARNING
DO NOT BYPASS, JUMPER, OR REMOVE ANY SAFETY SWITCH FROM THE FURNACE CONTROL CIRCUIT. IF A SAFETY SWITCH CAUSES THE FURNACE TO SHUT DOWN OR OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY, IT IS AN INDICA­TION OF A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD THAT MUST BE ADDRESSED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN, SERVICE AGENCY OR THE GAS SUPPLIER. DO NOT RESET SAFETY CONTROLS WITHOUT CORRECTIVE ACTION AND/OR VERIFICATION OF PROPER SAFE OPERATION BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER, SERVICE AGENCY OR THE GAS SUPPLIER.
REPLACE ANY SAFETY CONTROL COMPONENT WITH IDENTICAL OEM REPLACEMENT PARTS ONLY.

COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR (cont.)
For improved indoor air quality, added safety and product per­formance we recommend direct vent type installations. If non-di­rect type vent system is used, the requirements for combustion air must be provided as identified in the National Fuel Gas Code.
Combustion air requirements are determined by whether the fur­nace is in an open (unconfined) area or in a confined space such as a closet or small room.
FURNACE LOCATED IN AN UNCON­FINED SPACE
USING INDOOR AIR FOR COMBUSTION:
An unconfined space must have at least 50 cubic feet for each 1,000 BTUH of total input for all appliances in the space. Table 1 below specifies minimum space requirements and a few exam­ples of the room sizes required for different inputs. The sizes are based on 8-foot ceilings.
If the open space containing the furnace is in a building with tight construction, outside air may still be required for the furnace to operate and vent properly. Outside air openings should be sized the same as for a confined space.
FURNACE LOCATED IN A CONFINED SPACE
A confined space is defined as any space for a given furnace input rating which is smaller than that which is specified in Table 1 as minimum for an “unconfined” space. If the space is less than that specified in this table, the space is defined as
“confined”.
If the space is small enough to be designated as “confined”, it must have openings into the space which are located in accor­dance with the requirements set forth in the following subsections A and B. Size connected to the heated area or to the outside, and by the input of ALL appliances in the space.
If the confined space is within a building with tight construction, combustion air must be taken from outdoors or from an area freely communicating with the outdoors.
A. USING INDOOR AIR FOR COMBUSTION:
IMPORTANT: Air should not be taken from a heated space
with a fireplace, exhaust fan or other device that may pro­duce negative pressure.
If combustion air is taken from the heated area, the openings must each have at least 100 square inches of free area. Each opening must have at least one square inch of free area for each 1,000 BTUH of total input in the space. Table 2 shows some typical examples of openings required for com­bustion air openings required for a confined space.
B. USING OUTDOOR AIR FOR COMBUSTION:
IMPORTANT: Do not take air from an attic space that is
equipped with power ventilation. The confined space must communicate with the outdoors in
accordance with Methods 1 or 2 below. The minimum dimen­sion of air openings shall not be less than 3 inches. Where ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross-sectional area as the free area of the openings to which they connect.
METHOD 1:
Two permanent openings, one located within 12 inches of the top and one located within 12 inches of the bottom of the en­closure, shall be provided. The openings shall communicate directly, or by ducts, with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that freely communicate with the outdoors.
