CENTRAL DUCT CONNECTION
When connecting to a central duct system, avoid 90 degree el-
bows as this will reduce air fl ow delivery. A duct run in excess
of 40 feet is NOT RECOMMENDED. Th e air fl ow and heat
output will be greatly decreased.
Run 10" insulated hot air duct from the outdoor furnace
through a wall or window of the structure. Th en attach a fl ex-
ible hot air duct to the existing duct work. Connect the duct
with a 45 degree elbow or at an angle so the hot air from the
outdoor furnace is delivered downstream. Th is will insure
proper air fl ow into the system.
Avoid delivering hot air through an air conditioning coil as this
will cause an obstruction reducing heat output.
Th e following illustrations may be used as examples for your
installation.

INSTALLATION EXAMPLES

INSTALLATION #1
With this installation, a back draft damper (optional) is inserted
into the heat run before the plenum of the existing furnace to pre-
vent air from the existing furnace to blow back into the furnace
when it is not in use. When a back damper is employed, it should
be located as close to the existing furnace plenum as practical.

TYPES OF INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION #2
Th e baffl e on this system should be made the full width of the
furnace plenum in order to properly direct the air into the dis-
tribution ducts.
INSTALLATION #3
Extending the hot air duct from the furnace into the existing
plenum will help direct the fl ow of air from the furnace as well
as the fl ow in the existing furnace. Ducting entering the exist-
ing plenum at an angle (approximately 45 degrees) will facilitate
air fl ow from the furnace while diverting air from the existing
furnace.
