WARNING
Improper installation of the furnace can result in personal
injury or death. Combustion and flue products must
never be allowed to enter the return air system or air in
the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint tape
to seal return air system to furnace.
In platform installations with furnace return, the furnace
should be sealed airtight to the return air plenum. A door
must never be used as a portion of the return air duct
system. The base must provide a stable support and an
airtight seal to the furnace. Allow absolutely no sagging,
cracks, gaps, etc. For no reason should return and
supply air duct systems ever be connected to or from
other heating devices such as a fireplace or stove, etc.
Fire, explosion, carbon monoxide poisoning, personal
injury and/or property damage could result.

*Front clearance in alcove installation must be 24 in. (610 mm).
Maintain a minimum of 24 in. (610 mm) for front service access.
†Allow proper clearances to accommodate condensate trap.
‡For installations on a combustible floor, do not install the furnace
directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible materials other
than wood flooring.

Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace installed in an upflow application. If the
furnace is installed on a platform with bottom return, make
an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the
platform to ensure that the furnace operates properly and
safely. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom
panel to facilitate installation.
Markings are provided on both sides of the furnace cabinet
for installations that require side return air. Cut the furnace
cabinet at the maximum dimensions shown on page 2.
Refer to Engineering Handbook for additional information.
EL195UHNE applications which include side return
air and a condensate trap installed on the same side
of the cabinet (trap can be installed remotely within 5
ft.) require either a return air base or field-fabricated
transition to accommodate an optional IAQ accessory
taller than 14.5". See FIGURE 13.
