COLLECTOR BOX DRAIN TUBE
(BLUE AND WHITE STRIPED)
d. Use inducer housing drain extension tube (violet label and
factory-supplied in loose parts bag) to connect LOWER
inducer housing drain connection to condensate trap.
e. Determine appropriate length, cut, and connect tube to
condensate trap.
f. Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
3. Relief Port Tube
Refer to Pressure Switch Tubing section for connection
procedure.
CONDENSATE TRAP FIELD DRAIN ATTACHMENT
Refer to Condensate Drain section for recommendations and
procedures.
PRESSURE SWITCH TUBING
One collector box pressure tube (pink label) is factory connected to
the pressure switch for use when furnace is installed in UPFLOW
or HORIZONTAL LEFT applications. This tube MUST be dis-
connected and used for the condensate trap relief port tube. The
other collector box pressure tube (green label) which was factory
connected to the condensate trap relief port connection MUST be
connected to the pressure switch in DOWNFLOW or HORIZON-
TAL RIGHT applications.
NOTE: See Fig. 11 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
check for proper connections.
Relocate tubes as described below.
1. Disconnect collector box pressure tube (pink label) attached to
pressure switch.
2. Extend collector box pressure tube (green label) which was
previously connected to condensate trap relief port connection
by splicing to small diameter tube (factory-supplied in loose
parts bag).
3. Connect collector box pressure tube (green label) to pressure
switch connection labeled COLLECTOR BOX.

4. Use remaining small diameter tube (factory-supplied in loose
parts bag) to extend collector box pressure tube (pink label)
which was previously connected to pressure switch.
5. Route this extended tube (pink label) to condensate trap relief
port connection.
6. Determine appropriate length, cut, and connect tube.
7. Clamp tube to relief port connection.
CONDENSATE TRAP FREEZE PROTECTION
Refer to Condensate Drain Protection section for recommenda-
tions and procedures.
CONSTRUCT A WORKING PLATFORM
Construct working platform where all required furnace clearances
are met. (See Fig. 3 and 10.)
The condensate trap MUST be installed below furnace. See
Fig. 4 for dimensions. The drain connection to condensate
trap must also be properly sloped to an open drain.
NOTE: Combustion-air and vent pipes are restricted to a mini-
mum length of 5 ft. (See Table 6.)
NOTE: A 12-in. minimum offset pipe section is recommended
with short (5 to 8 ft) vent systems. This recommendation is to
reduce excessive condensate droplets from exiting the vent pipe.
(See Fig. 10 or 29.)
Step 1—General
When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air to areas
outside the space containing the furnace, return air must also be
handled by ducts sealed to furnace casing. The ducts terminate
outside the space containing the furnace to ensure there will not be
a negative pressure condition within equipment room or space.
