IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION INSTALLER: Please read all instructions before servicing this equipment. Pay attention to all safety warnings and any other special notes highlighted in the manual. Safety markings are used frequently throughout this manual to designate a degree or level of seriousness and should not be ignored. WARNING - indicates a potentially hazardous situation that if not avoided, could result in personal injury or death.
REQUIREMENTS & CODES WARNING: The safety information listed below must be followed during the installation, service, and operation of this furnace. Failure to follow safety recommendations could result in possible damage to the equipment, serious personal injury or death. • This furnace must be installed in accordance with these instructions, all applicable local building codes and the current revision of the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA54/ANSI Z223.
The information listed below is for reference purposes only and does not necessarily have jurisdiction over local or state codes. Always consult with local authorities before installing any gas appliance.
WARNING: Do not place combustible material on or against the furnace cabinet or within 6 inches of the vent pipe. Do not place combustible materials, including gasoline or any other flammable vapors and liquids, in the vicinity of the furnace. Clearances to Combustible Materials This furnace is Design Certified in the U.S. and Canada by CSA International for the minimum clearances to combustible materials. NOTE: The furnace is listed for installation on combustible or non-combustible flooring.
COMBUSTION AIR & VENTING REQUIREMENTS 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 with each individual appliance connected to the venting system being placed in operation, while all other appliances connected to the venting system are not in operation: 1.
has the additional advantage that it isolates the system from the effects of negative pressure in the house. CAUTION: Exhaust fans, clothes dryers, fireplaces and other appliances that force air from the house to the outdoors can create a negative pressure inside the house, resulting in improper furnace operation or unsafe conditions such as flame roll out. It is imperative that sufficient air exchange with the outdoors is provided to prevent depressurization.
Vent or Chimney Ventilation Louvers (each end of attic) Vent or Chimney --- Outlet Air Water Heater Furnace Inlet Air Air Duct Water Heater Furnace Air Ducts must be at least 1 sq. in. per 2,000 Btuh of total input rating. Air Duct --- --- --- Alternate Air Inlet NOTE: Air openings shall each have a free area of not less than one square inch per 4,000 Btuh of the total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. Ventilation Louvers For Unheated Crawl Space Figure 3.
Alternate Method of Providing Air from Outside: If acceptable under local Codes, it is permitted to provide outside air using one opening (See NFGC). Generally, confined spaces must have 2 openings in the space for combustion air. One opening must be within 12 inches of the ceiling, and the other must be within 12 inches of the floor. However, an alternative method recently adopted by the NFGC uses one opening within 12 inches of the top of the space.

Vent Freezing Protection CAUTION: When the vent pipe is exposed to temperatures below freezing (i.e., when it passes through unheated spaces, chimneys, etc.) the pipe must be insulated with 1/2 inch thick sponge rubber insulation, Armaflex-type insulation or equivalent. Insulating pipe is important to avoid condensate icing. • Table 2 (page 12) lists the maximum length of flue pipe that can travel through an unconditioned space or an exterior space.
• When a cooling system is installed which uses the furnace blower to provide airflow over the indoor coil, the coil must be installed downstream (on the outlet side) of the furnace or in parallel with the furnace. • If a cooling system is installed in parallel with the furnace, a damper must be installed to prevent chilled air from entering the furnace and condensing on the heat exchanger.

1 2 3 4 5 6 78 Rubber Grommets AIR FLOW The 2 1/4” rubber grommet is used to seal the opening between the furnace cabinet and the 2” PVC vent pipe. The rubber grommet should be installed in the 3” hole prior to running the vent pipe out of cabinet. No sealants are required. See Figure 13. The 7/8” rubber grommet is used to seal the opening between the furnace cabinet and the gas pipe. The rubber grommet should be installed in the 1 5/8” hole prior to running the gas pipe into the cabinet.
The 1/2” x 3/4” hose barb can be used to route the condensate drain to the outside of the cabinet. It must be installed from inside the cabinet with the threaded end inserted thru the 1 1/16” hole. See Figure 23 (page 26) for hole location The condensate drain should be connected to the barbed end. Attach 1” PVC drain line to the threaded end. Typical Orientation 1. Install the PVC Tee vertically on the 2” vent pipe that is extending out the side of the cabinet.
• Some local regulations require the installation of a manual main shut-off valve and ground joint union external to the furnace. The shut-off valve should be readily accessible for service and/or emergency use. Consult the local utility or gas supplier for additional requirements regarding placement of the manual main gas shut-off. See Figure 15 (page 18). • Per ANSI 21.
High Altitude Application (Natural Gas Only) The installation of this furnace at altitudes above 2,000 feet must meet the requirements of the National Fuel Gas Code or local jurisdiction. In Canada, the requirements for high altitude are different and governed by CGA B149.1. Please consult your local code authority. WARNING: The reduction of input rating necessary for high altitude installation may only be accomplished with factory supplied orifices. Do not attempt to drill out orifices in the field.
ELECTRICAL WIRING WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result in serious injury, death or property damage. Improper servicing could result in dangerous operation, serious injury, death or property damage. • Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power to furnace. • When servicing controls, label all wires prior to disconnecting. Reconnect wires correctly. • Verify proper operation after servicing.
Grounding ROOM THERMOSTAT (SINGLE STAGE) To minimize personal injury, the furnace cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken electrical ground. The controls used in this furnace require an earth ground to operate properly. Acceptable methods include electrical wire or conduit approved for ground service.
then stage up to HIGH fire, until the heating load is met. See Figure 17 and the Low Voltage Connection section on page 21. The autostaging option on the furnace control board is selected using the autostage jumper located near the thermostat terminal block. See Figure 25 (page 30).

NOTE: Turning the adjusting screw clockwise increases the pressure and counterclockwise reduces the pressure. d. Reinstall plastic cap after adjustment is complete. Verifying & Adjusting Temperature Rise Confirm the temperature rise through the furnace is within the limits specified on the furnace rating plate. Any temperature rise outside the specified limits could result in premature failure of the heat exchanger. 1.
Fan Mode • When the thermostat energizes the G terminal for continuous fan (without calling for heat or cooling), the indoor fan is energized on the selected FAN speed. • If a call for cooling occurs during continuous fan, the blower will switch over to the selected COOL speed. • If the W terminal receives a call for heat during continuous fan, the blower will de energize. • A call for fan is ignored while in lockout.
9. Carefully remove the burner assembly from the furnace. DO NOT DAMAGE THE IGNITER WHILE REMOVING THE BURNER ASSEMBLY. 10.Inspect the burners for accumulated dust or debris. If necessary carefully clean them with a soft wire brush and a vacuum cleaner. DO NOT DAMAGE THE IGNITER WHILE CLEANING THE BURNER. 11.Replace all the parts in reverse order from which they were removed. 12.Follow the lighting instructions found on the furnace door to return the furnace to operation.
