2. The return air filter is shipped in either the bottom or
side location. Remove the filter by first turning the two
latches on the blower door and tilting the door forward
to remove. Remove the filter by sliding it out.
3. For upflow side return installations, remove the
insulation around the opening in the blower compart-
ment.
4. The side panels of the upflow furnace include locating
notches that are used as guides for cutting an open-
ing for return air, refer to Figure 12 and the outline
drawing on page 4 for duct connection dimensions for
various furnaces.
WARNING
L !
Do not install the filter in the return duct directly above the
furnace in horizontal applications. Install the filter remotely.
Installing the filter directly above the furnace in horizontal
applications may cause property damage, serious injury or
death.
WARNING
L !
TO PREVENT INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO CONTACT
WITH MOVING PARTS, TURN THE POWER TO THE
FURNACE OFF BEFORE SERVICING FILTERS.
5. The bottom panel of the upflow furnace must be re-
moved for bottom return air. After removing the filter,
lay the furnace on its back. Remove the two 5/16" hex
screws securing the front of the bottom channel to
the cabinet. Rotate the channel downward (or remove
by lowering the front edge of the channel and pulling
forward). Slide the bottom return air panel out of the
cabinet. Rotate the front channel to its original posi-
tion and reinstall the two 5/16" screws.

ATTACHED TO FURNACE TOP SIDE
(HORIZONTAL LEFT OR RIGHT AP-
PLICATIONS) AS SHOWN.
Close coupled (less than 36")
return (filter directly beneath bottom
side return) not recommended due to
noise considerations. If used, securely
attach 1/2" mesh metal hardware cloth

6. If a 3/4" flange is to be used for attaching the air inlet
duct, add to cut where indicated by dotted lines in
Figure 12. Cut corners diagonally and bend outward to
form flange.
7. If flanges are not required, and a filter frame is in-
stalled, cut between locating notches (See Figure 13).
8. Upflow Furnaces: Filter clips are factory supplied
for bottom or side return. Use the clips on either side
or on the bottom if the filter is to be used within the
furnace cabinet.
When the upflow furnace is installed in the horizontal
right or left application and a return duct is attached
to the top side as shown in Figure 11, remove the filter
from the furnace and install in a remote location.
Do not install the filter in the return duct directly
above the furnace in horizontal applications.
When the upflow furnace is installed in the horizontal
right or left application and a close coupled (less than
36") return duct is attached to the bottom side of the
furnace as shown in Figure 11, securely attach a 1/2"
mesh metal hardware cloth protective screen to the
inside bottom of the filter grill to prevent personal
injury from contacting moving parts when reach-
ing into the return opening to replace the filter.
Close coupled (less than 36") return (filter directly
beneath bottom side return) is not recommended due to
noise considerations.
Downflow Furnaces: Brackets are factory supplied
to mount filters in the return air duct work.
9. Connect the duct work to the furnace. See Outline
Drawing for supply and return duct size and location.

Flexible duct connectors are recommended to connect
both supply and return air ducts to the furnace.
If only the front of the furnace is accessible, it is recom-
mended that both supply and return air plenums are
removable.
10. When replacing a furnace, old duct work should be
cleaned out. Thin cloths should be placed over the
registers and the furnace fan should be run for 10 min-
utes. Don't forget to remove the cloths before you start
the furnace.
11. The horizontal installation of the upflow furnace
requires an external filter section. Do NOT use the
bottom return filter within the furnace. Filter kits
are available for horizontal applications.
