Horizontal Installation—Left to Right Airflow
IMPORTANT:
The condensate drain should be routed directly to a locally
acceptable disposal area. The condensate drain line should
not be run directly to the outdoors especially in colder
climates where temperatures may cause the condensate to
freeze in the drain line.
Furnace must be mounted such that the side through which
the condensate will drain is elevated a minimum of 9" above a
surface such as a floor.
Install furnace at a slight pitch forward with shims or adjusting
screws.
