This kit is to be used with 2" or 3" direct vent systems. The vent kit
must terminate outside the structure and may be installed with the
intake and exhaust pipes located side-by-side or with one pipe above
the other. This kit is NOT intended for use with single pipe (indirect
vent) installations.
Refer to the directions furnished with the Side Wall Vent Kit
(p/n 0170K00000S) for installation specifications.

ENERAL
A condensing gas furnace achieves its high level of efficiency by
extracting almost all of the heat from the products of combustion
and cooling them to the point where condensation takes place. The
condensate which is generated must be piped to an appropriate
drain location.
In upright installations, the furnace's drain hoses may exit either the
right or left side of the furnace. NOTE: If the alternate vent/flue
outlet is utilized in an upright installation, the drain trap and drain
connections must be located on the same side as the alternate
vent/flue outlet.
In horizontal installations, the drain hoses will exit through the bot-
tom (down side) of the unit with the drain trap suspended beneath
the furnace. The field-supplied drain system must be in accordance
with all local codes and the instructions in the following sections.
Follow the bullets listed below when installing the drain system. Refer
to the following sections for specific details concerning furnace drain
trap installation and drain hose hook ups.
The drain trap supplied with the furnace must be used.
The drain line between furnace and drain location must
be constructed of 3/4" PVC or CPVC.
The drain line between furnace and drain location must
maintain a 1/4 inch per foot downward slope toward the
drain.
Do not trap the drain line in any other location than at
the drain trap supplied with the furnace.
Do not route the drain line outside where it may freeze.
If the drain line is routed through an area which may see
temperatures near or below freezing, precautions must
be taken to prevent condensate from freezing within the
drain line.
If an air conditioning coil is installed with the furnace, a
common drain may be used. An open tee must be
installed in the drain line, near the cooling coil, to relieve
positive air pressure from the coil's plenum. This is
necessary to prohibit any interference with the function
of the furnace's drain trap.

NSTALLATIONS
In an upright installation drain hoses are connected to drain ports
on the rubber elbow and the recuperator coil front cover. The drain
lines are then routed through the right or left side panel and into the
drain trap secured to the outside of the cabinet.
NOTE: Refer to Section X, Condensate Drain Lines and Drain Trap
- Alternate Vent/Flue Hose Connections for upright installations us-
ing an alternate vent/flue outlet.

the rubber elbow.
4. Insert Tube 1 into rubber elbow drain port and secure with
silver hose clamp. Angle tube outward toward front of furnace.
5. Right side drains
Cut 17 3/4 inches from the long end (end opposite the bend)
of Hose B. Save the part with the bend and discard the
17 3/4 inch piece that was cut. Secure the remaining hose
to Tube 1 with a green hose clamp. Route the other end of
Hose B to front right side panel grommet hole.
Left side drains
Cut "X" inches from the long end of Hose B and discard.
Refer to table for appropriate length to cut. Secure remaining
hose to Tube 1 with a green hose clamp. Route other end of
Hose B to front left side panel grommet hole.
