G40UH(X) Gas Furnace

The G40UH(X) gas furnace is shipped ready for installa-
tion in the upflow and horizontal position (left or right)

ly) is required for use in propane/LP gas applications. The
furnace is shipped with the bottom panel in place. The bot-
tom panel must be removed if the unit is to be installed in a
horizontal application. The panel may also be removed in

Safety Information

WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, person-
al injury or loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a qualified installer, service agency
or the gas supplier.
CAUTION
As with any mechanical equipment, personal injury
can result from contact with sharp sheet metal
edges. Be careful when you handle this equipment.
G40UH(X) units are CSA International certified to ANSI
Z21.47 and CSA 2.3 standards.
In the USA, installation of gas furnaces must conform with lo-
cal building codes. In the absence of local codes, units must
be installed according to the current National Fuel Gas Code
(ANSI-Z223.1). The National Fuel Gas Code is available
from the following address:
American National Standards Institute, Inc.
11 West 42nd Street
New York, NY 10036
In Canada, installation must conform with current CSA
B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes, local
plumbing or waste water codes and other applicable local
codes.
Adequate clearance must be made around the air open-
ings into the vestibule area. In order to ensure proper unit
operation, combustion and ventilation air supply must be
provided according to the current National Fuel Gas Code
or CSA B149 standards.
Vent installations must be consistent with the venting
tables (in this instruction) and applicable provisions of local
building codes.
This furnace is CSA International certified for installation
clearances to combustible material as listed on the unit
nameplate and in the tables in figures 6 and 11. Accessibility
and service clearances must take precedence over fire
protection clearances.
NOTE − For installation on combustible floors, the furnace
shall not be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material other than wood flooring.
For installation in a residential garage, the furnace must
be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source
are located no less than 18 inches (457 mm) above the
floor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid
physical damage by vehicles. When a furnace is installed
in a public garage, hangar, or other building that has a haz-
ardous atmosphere, the furnace must be installed accord-
ing to recommended good practice requirements and cur-
rent National Fuel Gas Code or CSA B149 standards.
NOTE − Furnace must be adjusted to obtain a temperature
rise within the range specified on the unit nameplate. Failure
to do so may cause erratic limit operation and premature heat
exchanger failure.
This G40UH(X) furnace must be installed so that its electri-
cal components are protected from water.
When this furnace is used with cooling units, it shall be
installed in parallel with, or on the upstream side of, cooling
units to avoid condensation in the heating compartment.
With a parallel flow arrangement, a damper (or other means
to control the flow of air) must adequately prevent chilled air
from entering the furnace. If the damper is manually oper-
ated, it must be equipped to prevent operation of either the
heating or the cooling unit, unless it is in the full HEAT or
COOL setting.
When installed, this furnace must be electrically grounded
according to local codes. In addition, in the United States,
installation must conform with the current National Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70. The National Electric Code
(ANSI/NFPA No. 70) is available from the following ad-
dress:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Battery March Park
Quincy, MA 02269
In Canada, all electrical wiring and grounding for the unit
must be installed according to the current regulations of the
Canadian Electrical Code Part I (CSA Standard C22.1)
and/or local codes.
