Filters
This unit is not equipped with a filter or rack. A field provided
high velocity filter is required for the unit to operate properly.
A filter must be in place any time the unit is operating.
Duct System
Use industry approved standards (such as those published
by Air Conditioning Contractors of America or American
Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning
Engineers) to size and install the supply and return air duct
system. This will result in a quiet and low static system that
has uniform air distribution.
NOTE: Do not operate the furnace in the heating mode
with an external static pressure that exceeds 0.5 inches
w.c. Higher external static pressures may cause erratic
limit operation.
Supply Air Plenum
If the furnace is installed without a cooling coil, a removable
access panel must be installed in the supply air duct. The
access panel should be large enough to permit inspection
(either by smoke or reflected light) of the heat exchanger
for leaks after the furnace is installed. The furnace access
panel must always be in place when the furnace is operating
and it must not allow leaks into the supply air duct system.
Return Air Plenum
NOTE: Return air must not be drawn from a room where
this furnace, or any other gas fueled appliance (i.e., water
heater), or carbon monoxide producing device (i.e., wood
fireplace) is installed.
When return air is drawn from a room, a negative pressure
is created in the room. If a gas appliance is operating in
a room with negative pressure, the flue products can be
pulled back down the vent pipe and into the room. This
reverse flow of the flue gas may result in incomplete
combustion and the formation of carbon monoxide gas.
This toxic gas might then be distributed throughout the
house by the furnace duct system.

Venting
A 4 inch diameter flue transition is factory installed on the
combustion air inducer outlet of all models.
These series units are classified as fan assisted Category
I furnaces when vertically vented according to the latest
edition of National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI
Z223.1) in the USA. A fan assisted Category I furnace is
an appliance equipped with an integral mechanical means
to either draw or force combustion products through the
combustion chamber and/or heat exchanger. This unit is
not approved for use with horizontal venting.
NOTE: Use these instructions as a guide. They do not
supersede local codes. This furnace must be vented
according to all local codes these installation instructions,
and the provided venting tables in these instructions.
The venting tables in this manual were extracted from the
National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1) and are
provided as a guide for proper vent installation. Proper
application, termination, construction and location of vents
must conform to local codes having jurisdiction. In the
absence of local codes, the NFGC serves as the defining
document.
Refer to the tables and the venting information contained
in these instructions to properly size and install the venting
system.
Once the venting system is installed, attach the
"Disconnected Vent" warning sticker to a visible area
of the plenum near the vent pipe. See Figure 16. The
warning sticker is provided in the bag assembly. Order
kit 66W04 for additional stickers.
Asphyxiation hazard. The exhaust vent for this furnace
must be securely connected to the furnace flue transition
at all times.
