CONNECTION
Return air can enter the furnace through the sides or bottom, depending
on the type of application. Return air must not be connected into the
rear panel of the unit.
SIDE RETURN APPLICATION
Side return applications pull return air through an opening cut in the
side of the furnace casing. This furnace is supplied with a bottom block-
off panel that must be left in place if a side return is used. If the furnace
is installed on a flat, solid surface, this bottom panel provides an ade-
quate seal to prevent air leakage through the unused bottom opening.
However, if the furnace is installed on a surface that is uneven, or if it is
installed on blocks or otherwise raised off the floor, it is necessary to
seal the edges of the bottom panel to the casing using tape or
other appropriate gasket material to prevent air leakage.
BOTTOM RETURN AND ATTIC INSTALLATIONS
Bottom return applications normally pull return air through a base plat-
form or return air plenum. Make sure the return platform structure or
return air plenum is suitable to support the weight of the furnace.
The internal bottom panel must be removed for this application.
Attic installations must meet all minimum clearances to combustibles
and have floor support with required service accessibility.
HORIZONTAL APPLICATION
Figure 3: Horizontal Application
IMPORTANT: This furnace can be installed in a horizontal position
on either side as shown above. It must not be installed on its back.

Figure 4: Typical Attic Installation
This appliance is certified for line contact when the furnace is installed
in the horizontal left or right position. The line contact is only permissible
between lines that are formed by the intersection of the top and two
sides of the furnace and the building joists, studs, or framing. This line
can be in contact with combustible material. See Figure 4.
When a furnace is installed in an attic or other insulated space, keep
all insulating materials at least 12 in. (30.5 cm) away from furnace
and burner combustion air openings.
IMPORTANT: During installation, doors must remain on the furnace
when moving or lifting.
