INTRODUCTION

This

4-way

multipoise

Category

IV

condensing

furnace

is

CSA

design-certified

as

a

direct-vent

(2-pipe)

or

non-direct

vent

(1-pipe)

furnace.

See

Fig.

2.

The

furnace

is

factory-shipped

for

use

with

natural

gas.

The

furnace

can

be

converted

in

the

field

for

use

with

propane

gas

when

a

factory-supplied

conversion

Kit

is

used.

Refer

to

the

furnace

rating

plate

for

conversion

kit

information.

These

furnaces

are

not

approved

for

installation

in

recreational

vehicles

or

outdoors.

Single-stage

furnaces

(40,000

through

120,000)

are

approved

for

installation

in

manutactured

housing/mobile

homes

with

manufacturer-approved

accessory.

The

conversion

kit

is

required

for

use

with

both

natural

and

propane

gas.

The

furnace

must

also

be

installed

on

a

factory-supplied

accessory

combustible

floor

base

or

evaporator

coil

casing.

This

furnace

is

designed

for

minimum

continuous

returm-air

temperature

of

60°F

(15°C)

db

or

intermittent

operation

down

to

55°F

(13°C)

db

such

as

when

used

with

a

night

setback

thermostat.

Return-air

temperature

must

not

exceed

80°F

(27°C)

db.

Failure

to

follow

these

return-air

temperature

limits

may

affect

reliability

of

heat

exchangers,

motors,

and

controls. See

Fig.

3.

The

furnace

should

be

sized

to

provide

100

percent

of

the

design

heating

load

requirement

plus

any

margin

that

occurs

because

of

furnace

model

size

capacity

increments.

Heating

load

estimates

can

be

made

using

approved

methods

available

from

Air

Conditioning

Contractors

of

America

(Manual

J);

American

Society

of

Heating,

Refrigerating,

and

Air-Conditioning

Engineers;

or

other

approved

engineering

methods.

Excessive

oversizing

of

the

furnace could

cause

the

furnace

and/or

vent

to

fail

prematurely.

For

accessory

installation

details,

refer

to

the

applicable

instruction

literature.

NOTE:

Remove

ail

shipping

materials,

loose

parts

bag,

and

literature

before

operating

the

furnace.

See

Table

1.

CODES

AND

STANDARDS

Follow

all

national

and

local

codes

and

standards

in

addition

to

these

instructions.

The

installation

must

comply

with

regulations

of

the

serving

gas

supplier,

local

building,

heating,

plumbing,

and

other

codes.

In

absence

of

local

codes,

the

installation

must

CAUTION

FURNACE

RELIABILITY

HAZARD

Failure

to

follow

this

caution

may

result

in

unit

component

damage.

Electrostatic

discharge

can

affect

electronic

components.

Take

precautions

during

furnace

installation

and

servicing

to

protect

the

furnace

electronic

control.

Precautions

will

prevent

electrostatic

discharges

from

personnel

and

hand

tools

which

are

held

during

the

procedure.

These

precautions

will

help

to

avoid

exposing

the

control

to

electrostatic

discharge

by

putting

the

furnace,

the

control,

and

the

person

at

the

same

electrostatic

potential.

1.

Disconnect

all

power

to

the

furnace.

Multiple

disconnects

may

be

required.

DO

NOT

TOUCH

THE

CONTROL

OR

ANY

WIRE

CONNECTED

TO

THE

CONTROL

PRIOR

TO

DISCHARGING

YOUR

BODY’S

ELECTROSTATIC

CHARGE

TO

GROUND.

.

Firmly

touch

the

clean,

unpainted,

metal

surface

of

the

fur-

nace

chassis

which

is

close

to

the

control.

Tools

held

in

a

person’s

hand

during

grounding

will

be

satisfactorily

dis-

charged.

bo

3.

After

touching

the

chassis,

you

may

proceed

to

service

the

control

or

connecting

wires

as

long

as

you

do

nothing

to

recharge

your

body

with

static

electricity

(for

example;

DO

NOT

move

or

shuffle

your

feet,

do

not

touch

ungrounded

objects,

etc.).

4. If

you touch

ungrounded

objects

(and

recharge

your

body

with

static

electricity),

firmly

touch

a

clean,

unpainted

metal

surface

of

the

furnace

again

before

touching

control

or

wires.

5.

Use

this

procedure

for

installed

and

uninstalled

(ungroun-

ded)

furnaces.

6.

Before

removing

a

new

control

from

its

container,

discharge

your

body’s

electrostatic

charge

to

ground

to

protect

the

control

from

damage.

If

the

control

is

to

be

installed

in

a

furnace,

follow

items

1

through

4

before

bringing

the

con-

trol

or

yourself

in

contact with

the

furnace.

Put

all

used

and

new

controls

into

containers

before

touching

ungrounded

objects.

7.

An

ESD

service

kit

(available

from

commercial

sources)

may

also

be

used

to

prevent

ESD

damage.

CAUTION

PERSONAL

INJURY

AND/OR

PROPERTY

DAMAGE

HAZARD

Improper

use

or

installation

of

this

furnace

may

result

in

premature

furnace

component

failure.

This

gas

furnace

may

be

used

for

heating

buildings

under

construction

provided

that:

-The

furnace

is

permanently

installed

with

all

electrical

wiring,

piping,

venting

and

ducting

installed

according

to

these

installation

instructions.

A

return

air

duct

is

provided,

sealed

to

the

furnace

casing,

and

terminated

outside

the

space

containing

the

furnace.

This

prevents

a

negative

pressure

condition

as

created

by

the

circulating

air

blower,

causing

a

flame

rollout

and/or

drawing

combustion

products

into

the

structure.

-The

furnace

is

controlled

by

a

thermostat.

It

may

not

be

“hot

wired”

to

provide

heat

continuously

to

the

structure

without

thermostatic

control.

-Clean

outside

air

is

provided

for

combustion.

This

is

to

minimize

the

corrosive

effects

of

adhesives,

sealers

and

other

construction

materials.

It

also

prevents

the

entrainment

of

drywall

dust

into

combustion

air,

which

can

cause

fouling

and

plugging

of

furnace

components.

-The

temperature

of

the

return

air

to

the

furnace

is

maintained

between

55°F

(13°C)

and

80°F

(27°C),

with

no

evening

setback

or

shutdown.

The

use

of

the

furnace

while

the

structure

is

under

construction

is

deemed

to

be

intermittent

operation

per

our

installation

instructions.

-The

air

temperature

rise

is

within

the

rated

rise

range

on

the

furnace

rating

plate,

and

the

gas

input

rate

has

been

set

to

the

nameplate

value.

-The

filters

used

to

clean

the

circulating

air

during

the

construction

process

must

be

either

changed

or

thoroughly

cleaned

prior

to

occupancy.

-The

furnace,

ductwork

and

filters are

cleaned

as

AIR

FOR

COMBUSTION

AND

VENTILATION

Introduction

Direct

Vent

(2-pipe)

Applications

When

the

furnace

is

installed

as

a

direct

vent

(2-pipe)

furnace,

no

special

provisions

for

air

for

combustion

are

required.

However,

other

gas

appliances

installed

in

the

space

with

the

furnace

may

require

outside

air

for

combustion.

Follow

the

guidelines

below

to

insure

that

other

gas

appliances

have

sufficient

air

for

combustion.

Non-Direct

Vent

(1-pipe)

Applications

When

the

furnace

is

installed

as

a

non-direct

vent

(1-pipe)

furnace,

it

will

be

necessary

to

insure

there

is

adequate

air

for

combustion.

Other

gas

appliances

installed

with

the

furnace

may

also

require

air

for

combustion

and

ventilation

in

addition

to

the

amount

of

combustion

air

and

ventilation

air

required

for

the

furnace.

Follow

the

guidelines

below

to

insure

that

the

furnace

and

other

gas

appliances

have

sufficient

air

for

combustion.

Ventilated

Combustion

Air

Applications

When

the

furnace

is

installed

using

the

ventilated

combustion

air

option,

the

attic

or

crawlspace

must

freely

communicate

with

the

outdoor

to

provide

sufficient

air

for

combustion.

The

combustion

air

pipe

cannot

be

terminated

in

attics

or

crawlspaces

that

use

ventilation

fans

designed

to

operate

during

the

heating

season.

If

ventilation

fans

are

present

in

these

areas,

the

combustion

air

pipe

must

terminate

outdoors

as

a

Direct

Vent/

2-Pipe

system.

All

air

for

combustion

is

piped

directly

to

the

furnace

from

a

space

that

is

well

ventilated

with

outdoor

air

(such

as

an

attic,

crawl space

or

equipment

closet)

and

the

space

is

well

isolated

from

the

living

space

or

garage.

In

addition,

other

gas

appliances

installed

in

the

space

with

the

furnace

may

require

outside

air

for

combustion.

Follow

the

guidelines

below

to

insure

that

the

roof

or

crawlspace

wails

have

sufficient

free

area

to

provide

sufficient

air

for

and

ventilation

for

the

furnaces.

The

guidelines

be

used

to

insure

that
