4. Insert furnace from backside of wall. Line up hole in wall and furnace.
5. Apply sealant to back of vent ring and vent cap base.
6. Install vent assembly with HOT at top for horizontal and on right
side for vertical installation (
intake tube. Secure to wall with four (4) screws.
7. Vent must have a minimum 1-1/4" over lap on exhaust tube and a
minimum 1/2˝ overlap on combustion airtube.
8. Horizontal units - secure to floor with two (2) screws through legs
on back of casing. Vertical units use vertical mounting brackets and
self-tapping screws to hold furnace to floor (tabs on control box can
be used also to secure furnace).

• Each 4-inch duct opening provides 12 in

of non closeable duct discharge area for each
closeable register used.
• Use of 2˝ ducts does not count toward achieving min. discharge req.
Ducting in dead air space with no return air, such as holding tank
areas, does not count toward achieving min. discharge requirements.
• Adjust ducting installation to obtain air rise of 100˚F - 130˚F.
Flexible Ducting System
When designing Flexible Duct Systems:
• avoid sharp bends or crushed ducts
• stretch all ducts and run them directly to outlets, keeping quanti-
ty and angles of bends to a minimum
1. Remove knockout plates from desired outlets.
2. Attach duct adapter to each opening, by inserting flange over casing,
locking tab into casing slot and turning adapter 90˚.
3. Attach and secure

4. Run ducts to desired location within RV, secure to registers.
5. Additional ducting may be needed to maintain static pressure.
Hard Ducting Floor System
When designing Hard Duct Systems:
• undersize ducting will cause high temperature limiting
• oversize ducting will cause inadequate air flow from registers
• when hard ducting is 1-1/2˝ in depth, an additional flex duct may
be needed to maintain installation static requirements
install floor registers within 2 feet of return air openings.

compound on flare fittings.
2. A 3/8˝ flared fitting connection is provided for supply connection to
furnace. The gas supply line of the furnace must be of adequate size
to provide 11˝ W.C. gas pressure. This pressure must be maintained
under maximum flow conditions with all gas appliances in operation.
3. Use two wrenches to hold fitting and flare nut when tightening gas
line to fitting. (

This connection is for low-voltage battery or direct current only. Do
not connect to 120- or 240- volts AC.
This unit is designed for negative ground 12 volt DC ONLY. Polarity

VOLT DC MODELS
Route 12 volt DC and thermostat leads to left side of control box. Use
a minimum of 18 GA wire to minimize voltage drop. The furnace must
be installed so electrical components are protected from water. To
make electrical connections: see
1. Route wiring to left side of furnace.
2. Connect red wire to positive side of power supply.
3. Connect yellow wire to grounded side of power supply.
4. Connect blue wire marked positive thermostat to + side wire of
thermostat using 22-18 GA stranded wire.
5. Connect the other blue wire to the other thermostat lead using
minimum 22-18 GA stranded wire.
See instruction with thermostat for complete wiring directions.
For best furnace performance when power supply is from a converter
D
equipped with a charging port, wire the converter to furnace parallel
3/4˝
with battery. This provides consistent voltage to furnace, increasing
component life, filtering power surges and AC spikes

VOLT AC MODELS
Route 120 volt AC and thermostat leads to wires located on the left
side of control box using a minimum of 18 GA wire. The furnace must
