INTRODUCTION

Fig. 2 – Clearances to Combustibles
This 4-way multipoise Category I fan-assisted furnace is CSA (formerly
A.G.A. and C.G.A.) design-certified. A Category I fan-assisted furnace is
an appliance equipped with an integral mechanical means to either draw
or force products of combustion through the combustion chamber and/or
heat exchanger. The furnace is factory-shipped for use with natural gas.
This furnace is not approved for installation in mobile homes,
recreational vehicles, or outdoors.
This furnace is designed for minimum continuous return-air temperature
of 60°F (15°C) db or intermittent operation down to 55°F (13°C)db such
as when used with a night setback thermostat. Return-air temperature
must not exceed 80°F (27°C) db. Failure to follow these return-air
temperature limits may affect reliability of heat exchangers, motors, and
controls, see Fig. 5.
For accessory installation details, refer to the applicable instruction
literature.
NOTE: Remove all shipping brackets and materials before operating the
furnace.
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.
FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death
and/or property damage.
When the furnace is installed in a residential garage, the burners and
ignition sources must be located at least 18 in. (457 mm) above the
floor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid damage by
vehicles. When the furnace is installed in a public garage, airplane
hangar, or other building having a hazardous atmosphere, the furnace
must be installed in accordance with the NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1, see
