UPFLOW/ HORIZONTAL SHOWN WITH DIRECT VENT
The furnace must be supported at both ends and the middle when installed horizontally. The furnace must also be elevated approximately 4-6 inches to allow clearance for the condensate drain to exit the cabinet in the horizontal position.
The horizontal furnace may also be suspended from the joists using all-thread rods with a substantial metal support frame that supports the entire length of the furnace. The rods need to be of sufficient length to allow for proper clearances from combustible materials. The frame needs to be at least 32" in length to allow for access to service panels.
If the furnace is suspended using steel strap, it must be supported at all four corners and in the middle at the front of the furnace.
AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
If these furnaces are installed in a nondirect vent capacity then the adequate flow of combustion and ventilating air must not be obstructed from reaching the furnace. Air open ings provided for combustion air must be kept free of obstructions which restrict the flow of air. Airflow restrictions affect the efficiency and safe operation of the furnace. Keep this in mind should you choose to remodel or change the area which contains your furnace. Furnaces must have a free flow of air for proper performance.
Provisions for combustion and ventilation air shall be made in accordance with latest edition of Section 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 — CAN/CGA B149.1 or applicable provisions of the local building codes. Special conditions created by mechanical exhausting of air and fireplaces must be con sidered to avoid unsatisfactory furnace operation.

CAUTION
!
With a parallel flow arrangement, the dampers or other means used to control flow of air shall be adequate to prevent chilled air from entering the Furnace, and if manually operated, must be equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless the damper is in full heat or cool position.
On any job, flexible connections of nonflammable material may be used for return air and discharge connections to prevent transmission of vibration. Though these units have been specifically designed for quiet, vibration free operation, air ducts can act as sounding boards and could, if poorly installed, amplify the slightest vibration to the annoyance level.
When the furnace is located in a utility room adjacent to the living area, the system should be carefully designed with returns to minimize noise transmission through the return air grille. Although these furnaces are designed with large blowers operating at moderate speeds, any blower moving a high volume of air will produce audible noise which could be objectionable when the unit is located very close to a living area. It is often advisable to route the return air ducts under the floor or through the attic. Such design permits the installation of air return remote from the living area (i.e. central hall).
When the furnace is installed so that the supply ducts carry air circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space containing the furnace, the return air shall also be handled by a duct(s) sealed to the furnace and terminating outside the space containing the furnace.
RETURN AIR DUCT SYSTEMS
Safety Hazard
Sharp Edge Hazard
Be careful of sharp edges on equipment or any cuts made on sheet metal while installing or servicing. Personal injury may result. Where there is no complete return duct system, the return connection must be run full size from the furnace to a location outside the utility room, basement, attic, or crawl space.
Do NOT install return air through the back of the furnace cabinet.
Do NOT install return air through the side of the furnace cabinet on horizontal applications.
NOTE: Minimum return air temperature is 55°F.
PREPARATION FOR UPFLOW BOTTOM AND SIDE RETURN AIR FILTER INSTALLATION
All return air duct systems should provide for installation of return air filters.
1. Determine the appropriate position to set the furnace in order to connect to existing supply and return ductwork.
2. The return air filter is shipped in either the bottom or side location. Remove the filter by first turning the two latches on the blower door and tilting the door forward to remove. Remove the filter by sliding it out.
3. For upflow side return installations, remove the insulation around the opening in the blower compartment.
4. The side panels of the upflow furnace include locating notches that are used as guides for cutting an opening for return air, refer to Figure 10 and the outline drawing on page 4 for duct connection dimensions for various furnaces.

8. The horizontal installation of the upflow furnace requires an external filter section. Do NOT use the bottom return filter within the furnace. Filter kits are available for horizontal applications.
9. Connect duct work to furnace. See Outline Drawing for supply and return duct size and location. Flexible duct con nectors are recommended to connect both supply and return air ducts to the furnace. If only the front of the furnace is accessible, it is recommended that both supply and return air plenums are removable.
RETURN AIR FILTERS
TYPICAL UPFLOW RETURN AIR FILTER INSTALLATIONS
Filters are factory supplied for these furnaces. These furnaces require high velocity type air filters. The filters may be installed within the furnace blower compartment for UPFLOW furnaces in either a BOTTOM or SIDE (left side or right side) return air inlet. Some filters may need to be trimmed for side or bottom filter use.

GENERAL VENTING INFORMATION
WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each appliance connected to the venting system being placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance connected to the venting system being placed into operation, while all other appliances connected to the venting system are not in operation:
1. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch, as required in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code and these instructions. Determine that there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. As far as 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 deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
4. Close fireplace dampers.
5. 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 are operating at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan.
6. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being inspected into operation. Adjust the thermostat so appliance is operating continuously.
7. Test for spillage from draft hood equipped appliances at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
8. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the venting system must be corrected in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z221.1/NFPA 54 and/or CSA B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
9. After it has been determined that each appliance connected to the venting system properly vents where

STRAIGHT SIDE MUST BE ON BOTTOM FOR PROPER CONDENSATE DRAINAGE.
WHEN THE FACTORY SUPPLIED "OFF-SET" (2X3 REDUCING COUPLING) IS USED FOR 3" VENT PIPE INSTALLATION, MAKE SURE THE MARKING "TOP" IS LOCATED ON THE TOP SIDE OF THE PIPE.
THIS FURNACE MUST BE VENTED TO THE OUTDOORS. THESE FURNACES ARE INDUCED DRAFT VENTED AND MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO ANY VENT SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE. PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE FURNACES USE POSITIVE-
PRESSURE VENT SYSTEMS.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD FURNACE MUST BE VENTED PROPERLY. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN CARBON MONOXIDE, FIRE OR SMOKE THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, DEATH OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
IMPORTANT:
The building owner/maintenance provider must keep the area around the vent clear from snow.
Proper venting is essential to obtain maximum efficiency
from a condensing furnace. Proper installation of the vent system is necessary to assure drainage of the condensate and prevent deterioration of the vent system.
American Gas Association has certified the design of condensing Furnaces for a minimum of 0" clearance from combustible materials with a single wall plastic vent pipe. See Table 8.
The recommended system is assembled from 2", 2-1/2", or 3" plastic pipe and fittings (See Table 9, page 18) for material specifications. Where the system is routed to the outdoors through an existing masonry chimney containing flue products from another gas appliance, or where required by local codes, then 3" venting of Type 29-4C stainless steel must be used in place of PVC material.
These furnaces have been classified as CATEGORY IV Furnaces in accordance with ANSI Z21.47 “latest edition” standards. Category IV Furnaces operate with positive vent pressure and with a vent gas temperature less than 140°F. above the dewpoint. These conditions require special venting systems, which must be gas and water tight.
NOTE: When an existing furnace is removed from a venting system serving other gas appliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached appliances.
The following steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not in operation.

HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION
(UPFLOW/ HORIZONTAL OR DOWNFLOW/ HORIZONTAL)
NOTE: See Figures 23 & 24. In horizontal venting when the factory supplied “off-set” (2X3 reducing coupling) is used for 3” vent pipe installation, make sure the marking “Top” is located on the top side of the pipe. The straight side must be on bottom for proper condensate drainage. This coupling is factory supplied with the following models: *UHMC100, *UHMD120, & all downflow models.
Carbon monoxide, fire or smoke can cause serious bodily injury, death, and/ or property damage.
A variety of potential sources of carbon monoxide can be found in a building or dwelling such as gas-fired clothes dryers, gas cooking stoves, water heaters, Furnaces and fireplaces. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommends that users of gas­burning appliances install carbon monoxide detectors as well as fire and smoke detectors per the manufacturer’s installation instructions to help alert dwelling occupants of the presence of fire, smoke or unsafe levels of carbon monoxide. These devices should meet Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. Standards for Single and Multiple Station Carbon Monoxide Alarms, UL 2034 or CSA International Standard, Residential Carbon Monoxide
Alarming Devices, CSA 6.19
For NONDIRECT VENT APPLICATION: The furnace shall be vented to the exterior of the house, but combustion air may enter from the surrounding area as long as combustion air requirements are met. (See AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION).
FURNACE VENT/INLET PIPE INSTALLATION
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD Failure to follow the installation instructions for the venting system being placed into operation could
result in carbon monoxide poisoning or death.
There are many different variations of the vent/ inlet air pipe combination. The vent/ inlet air combination used for installation of these furnaces depends on the needs of the location. However, these guidelines must be followed:
1. The Furnace must vent outside the structure.
2. Furnace combustion air requirements must be met for nondirect, single pipe applications (See ex. 2 ).
3. For direct vent application of these furnaces, the vent pipe and air inlet pipe do not have to exit in the same air space or even on the same surface of the structure.
However, the longest individual pipe will decide the value for the longest allowable equivalent vent/ inlet air length as shown in the vent length table.
NOTE: BAYVENT200B accessories can be used for inlet and outlet terminals when the pipes do not exit the structure together. For Canadian applications ONLY, IPEX 196006 may be used for horizontal and vertical terminations. IPEX 081216, IPEX 081218, and IPEX 081219 may be only used for horizontal vent terminations.
The following are EXAMPLES ONLY:
EX. 1 —
Example 1 shows that the vent may go vertical while the inlet air may be on any side of the structure. The Vent Pipe would decide the maximum equivalent length for the pipe depending on the furnace and pipe size.
NOTE: The manufacturer of your furnace does not test any detectors and makes no representations regarding any brand or type of detector.
IMPORTANT: These furnaces may be installed as Direct
Vent (sealed combustion) or as Nondirect Vent (single pipe). The furnaces are shipped DIRECT VENT with sealed combustion. For DIRECT VENT APPLICATION: The furnaces must be vented to the exterior of the house and combustion air MUST come through the inlet air pipe FROM OUTSIDE AIR. The pipes DO NOT have to exit the exterior of the house together or on the same side of the house.

Example 2 shows the vent pipe exhausting through the roof and the inlet air coming from the interior of the house (See Note). The inlet air coming from the interior of the house must meet combustion requirements for area, etc., as shown in the section AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION in this Installer’s Guide.
EX. 3 —
Example 3 shows the vent exiting one side of the house while the inlet air is on the opposite side of the structure. Here the Vent Pipe length must be within the allowable length for the size of Furnace and size of the Vent Pipe. This example demonstrates that the pipes do not have to exit on the same side of the structure.
EX. 4 —
The inlet air does not have to come from outside the structure. Example 4 shows the inlet air (See Note), may come from the attic if the requirements for combustion air are met as shown in the section AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION.
NOTE: If only the flue gas pipe is to the outside of the structure, a straight section of pipe (long enough to exit the Furnace cabinet) must be attached to the inlet air side with an elbow (which is 5 to 10 equivalent feet) installed on the end to prevent dust and debris from falling directly into the Furnace.
VENT FITTING MATERIAL – PLASTIC
Gas and liquid tight single wall vent fittings, designed for resistance to corrosive flue condensate, MUST be used throughout.
Listed in Table 9 are materials that meet these requirements. The materials listed are various grades of PVC and ABS plastic.
PIPE JOINTS: All joints must be fastened and sealed to prevent escape of combustion products into the building. These materials are acceptable for U.S. applications only. All Canadian installations must conform to ULC S636.
NOTE: It is recommended that the first joints from the furnace be connected and sealed with high temperature RTV. This will enable the pipes to be removed later without cutting. Be sure to properly support these joints.
BONDING OF PVC
Commercially available solvent cement for PVC must be used to join PVC pipe fittings. Follow instructions on container carefully for U.S. applications only. Canadian applications require primer and cement that are from a single system manufacturer.
For U.S. applications only:
Pipe and Fittings – ASTM D1785, D2466, D2661, & D2665. PVC Primer and Solvent Cement – ASTM D2564. Procedure for Cementing Joints Ref – ASTM D2855
1. Cut pipe square, remove ragged edges and burrs. Chamfer end of pipe, then clean fitting socket and pipe joint area of all dirt, grease, moisture or chips.
2. After checking pipe and socket for proper fit, wipe socket and pipe with cleaner-primer. Apply a liberal coat of primer to inside surface of socket and outside of pipe.
DO NOT ALLOW PRIMER TO DRY BEFORE APPLYING CEMENT.
3. Apply a thin coat of cement evenly in the socket. Quickly apply a heavy coat of cement to the pipe end and insert pipe into fitting with a slight twisting movement until it bottoms out.
4. Hold the pipe in the fitting for 30 seconds to prevent tapered socket from pushing the pipe out of the fitting.
