IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, ALTERATION, SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE CAN CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONSULT A QUALIFIED INSTALLER, SERVICE AGENCY OR THE GAS SUPPLIER.

8.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.

DUCT LEAKS CAN CREATE AN UNBALANCED SYSTEM AND DRAW POLLUTANTS SUCH AS DIRT, DUST, FUMES AND ODORS INTO THE HOME CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE. FUMES AND ODORS FROM TOXIC, VOLATILE OR FLAMMABLE CHEMICALS, AS WELL AS AUTOMOBILE EXHAUST AND CARBON MONOXIDE (CO), CAN BE DRAWN INTO THE LIVING SPACE THROUGH LEAKING DUCTS AND UNBALANCED DUCT SYSTEMS CAUSING PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

IF AIR-MOVING EQUIPMENT OR DUCTWORK IS LOCATED IN SPACES CONTAINING FUEL BURNING APPLIANCES SUCH AS WATER HEATERS OR BOILERS, ALL JOINTS, SEAMS, AND OPENINGS IN THE EQUIPMENT AND DUCT MUST ALSO BE SEALED TO PREVENT DEPRESSURIZATION OF THE SPACE AND POSSIBLE MIGRATION OF COMBUSTION BYPRODUCTS INCLUDING CARBON MONOXIDE INTO THE LIVING SPACE.

NOTICE

IMPROPER INSTALLATION, OR INSTALLATION NOT MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CSA INTERNATIONAL (CSA) CERTIFICATION OR THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CAN RESULT IN UNSATISFACTORY OPERATION AND/OR DANGEROUS CONDITIONS AND ARE NOT COVERED BY THE UNIT WARRANTY.

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 occupied space by reducing the amount of airborne pollutants that enter occuplied spaces 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.

NOTE: The time delays vary depending on how the wires are connected.

CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) IS A COLORLESS, ODORLESS, POISONOUS GAS THAT CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. CARBON MONOXIDE CAN BE PRODUCED BY ANY FUEL-BURNING DEVICE.

CARBON MONOXIDE FROM ANY FUEL BURNING DEVICES CAN BE INADVERTENTLY DRAWN INTO AND DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE LIVING SPACE BY THE NORMAL OPERATION OF THE CENTRAL HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM.

APPLIANCES AND FUEL BURNING DEVICES MUST BE INSTALLED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED IN ACCOR-

DANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER’S

INSTRUCTIONS.

EVEN WITH DOORS AND WINDOWS OR VENTS OPEN, CARBON MONOXIDE CAN BUILD UP AND SEEP INTO THE LIVING SPACE THROUGH CRACKS AND OPENINGS IN THE STRUCTURE. TOXIC FUMES, INCLUDING CARBON MONOXIDE, CAN ALSO BE DRAWN INTO THE LIVING SPACE THROUGH OPENINGS AND SEAMS IN THE CENTRAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING EQUIPMENT AND / OR DUCTWORK.

FOR THESE REASONS, THE U.S. CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION (CPSC) RECOMMENDS THAT EVERY HOME HAVE AT LEAST ONE CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM INSTALLED IN THE HALLWAY NEAR THE BEDROOMS IN EACH SEPARATE SLEEPING AREA OF THE HOME. CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS SHOULD BE CERTIFIED TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MOST RECENT UL, IAS OR CSA STANDARD, AND SHOULD BE INSTALLED, OPERATED AND MAINTAINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE

ALARM MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
