* Filters may be field modified by cutting filter material and support rods (3) in
filters. Alternate sizes can be ordered from your distributor or dealer.
† Factory-provided with furnace.
Use care when cutting support rods in filters to protect against
flying pieces and sharp rod ends. Wear safety glasses, gloves,
and appropiate protective clothing. Failure to follow this
caution could result in personal injury.
For airflow requirements above 1800 CFM, see Air Delivery
table in Product Data literature for specific use of single side
inlets. The use of both side inlets, a combination of 1 side and
the bottom, or the bottom only will ensure adequate return air
openings for airflow requirements above 1800 CFM.
NOTE: Side return-air openings can ONLY be used in UPFLOW
configurations. Install filter(s) as shown in Fig. 18.
For bottom return-air applications, filter may need to be cut to fit
some furnace widths. Install filter as shown in Fig. 19.
NOTE: Remove and discard bottom closure panel when bottom
inlet is used.

These furnaces are shipped with bottom closure panel installed in
bottom return-air opening. This panel MUST be in place when side
return air is used.

1. Tilt or raise furnace and remove 2 screws holding front filler
panel. (See Fig. 20.)
2. Rotate front filler panel downward to release holding tabs.
3. Remove bottom closure panel.
4. Reinstall front filler panel and screws.
