This gas furnace may be used for construction heat 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 no less
than 55 degrees F, 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 firing rate has been set to the
nameplate value.
-The filters used to clean the circulating air during the
construction process must be either changed ot thoroughly
cleaned prior to occupancy.
-The furnace, ductwork and filters are cleaned as necessary to
remove drywall dust and construction debris from all HVAC
system components after construction is completed.

Do not install the furnace on its back or hang furnace with
control compartment facing downward. Safety control opera-
tion will be adversely affected. Never connect return-air ducts
to the back of the furnace. Failure to follow this warning
could result in fire, personal injury, or death. (See Fig. 5.)
Step 2—Location Relative to Cooling Equipment
The cooling coil must be installed parallel with, or on the
downstream side of the unit to avoid condensation in the heat
exchangers. When installed parallel with the furnace, dampers or
other flow control must prevent chilled air from entering the
furnace. If the dampers are manually operated, they must be
equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless the
damper is in the full-heat or full-cool position.
Provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air must be
provided in accordance with Section 8.3 of the NFGC, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, or applicable provisions of the local
building codes.
Canadian installations must be installed in accordance with NSC-
NGPIC Part 7 and all authorities having jurisdiction.
