Thermo Pride CLHS1-050P36N Installation And Operation Manual page 6

All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.
This page contains various warnings and cautions found throughout this Furnace Manual. Please read and comply
with the statements below.
The following safety information should be read, understood, and followed by the installer.
1. Use only with type of gas approved for this furnace. Refer to furnace rating plate.
2. Connect this furnace to an approved vent system only. Combustion products must be discharged
outdoors. Connect this furnace to an approved vent system only, as specified in section III parts D though
H of these instructions.
: This furnace is not to be used for temporary heating of buildings or structures under construction.
: These high efficiency condensing furnaces are not certified for and shall not be vented into a
standard or any type of chimney.
: These furnaces may not be common vented with any other appliance.
: The vent and air intake elbows must be kept away from bushes, shrubs or any vegetation that may
restrict the flow of flue products. It must also be kept clear of any leaves, weeds or other combustible materials.
Keep the vent hood clear of snow. Avoid locating the terminals in areas where standing water or condensate
drippage may be a problem.
: Outside combustion air must not come from an area that is directly adjacent to a pool, hot tub or
spa. Measures should be taken to prevent the entry of corrosive chemicals or vapors to the combustion and
ventilation air supply. Such chemicals include but are not limited to chlorinated and/or fluorinated hydrocarbons
such as found in refrigerants, aerosol propellants, dry cleaning fluids, degreasers , bleaches, air fresheners or
solvents. Vapors from such products can form acid compounds when burned in a gas flame. Should acid
compounds form in your furnace; it may reduce the life of the furnace.
: Because of the potential of odorant fade, a gas leak may not be detected by smell. If this furnace
is installed below grade, contact your gas supplier for a gas detector.
: Turn off power to furnace before it is placed into service. The gas piping system must have been
leak tested by a qualified heating contractor.
: It may be necessary to purge the air out of the gas line for initial start-up of the furnace after
installation. This should be done by a qualified heating contractor. If excessive gas escapes when purging the gas
supply at the union, allow the area to ventilate for at least 15 minutes before attempting to start the furnace. LP
gas is especially dangerous because the specific gravity of LP gas allows it to accumulate at floor level at a
dangerous concentration. For remainder of operating instructions, reference Users Information Manual.
: Heat exchanger oil will burn off on initial firing creating an unpleasant odor. To prevent this
odor from occurring more than once, it is suggested that:
1. A window(s) be opened.
2. The thermostat set at highest setting.
3. The furnace remain running at conditions 1&2 for 30 minutes or until odor has dissipated
: These furnace models are a sealed combustion design, which does not require an air shutter
adjustment (air shutters are not used) for proper flame characteristics. Burner door must always be closed before
operating furnace.
