Duct Work Installation - United States Stove Company HotBlast 1331E Owner's Operation And Instruction Manual

We strongly recommend that the hot air ductwork
be installed by a home heating specialist. If doing
the installation yourself, before you decide which
installation will best suit your needs, consult a qualified
heating technician and follow his recommendations
as to the safest and most efficient method of
installation.
This furnace can be installed in two ways, as a stand
alone or parallel unit, with an existing furnace.
SUPPLY AIR (HOT AIR) PLENUM
The warm-air supply duct shall be constructed
of metal in accordance with NFPA 90B, 2-1.1. The
plenums installed to the furnace shall be constructed
of metal in accordance with NFPA 90B, 2-1.3.
When installing this furnace the hot air plenum is to
have a minimum height of 24" (610mm) if the top
of the first vertical section is not flush with the top of
the first horizontal section of ductwork. If the top of
the plenum is flush with the top of the first horizontal
section of ductwork then the minium height is 15"
(381mm).
RETURN AIR (FRESH AIR)
The return (fresh) air intake on the furnace is on the
rear of the unit. The ductwork must be mechanically
attached to the unit or UFB908 blower box with sheet
metal screws to ensure a proper operation.

If installing this furnace as a stand alone unit, ensure
all local codes and all instructions in this manual are
