HEAT EXCHANGER VENTER RESTRICTOR PLATE KIT
INSTALLATION FOR DUCT FURNACES
• These venter restrictor replacement kits are for series 6 SC, HSC, and SCA model units WITH stainless steel heat
exchangers that DO NOT have gas control option AG39, AG40, AG41 or AG42.
• Check the furnace rating plate and wiring diagram to determine if the replacement venter restrictor is required. If
the model number on the rating plate is not prefixed with an E or an S (e.g., SC400 instead of ESC400 or SSC400),
the unit has an aluminized heat exchanger. If the serial number on the rating plate has the suffix MP1, MP2, MP3
or MP4, the unit is equipped with gas control option AG39, AG40, AG41 or AG42.
• The venter restrictor plate adjusts the size of the outlet in the flue duct assembly and must be
changed when replacing an aluminized heat exchanger with a a stainless steel heat exchanger
on certain sizes of series 6 model SC, HSC, and SCA units.
• These replacement kits ARE NOT used on unit sizes 100, 150, 200, and 250.
• Refer to the installation manual provided with the heater for important safety information.

• The replacement heat exchanger should be installed by a qualified service agency in compliance
with all codes and requirements of authorities having jurisdiction.
• Improper installation could result in death, serious injury, and/or property damage. The qualified
agency performing this work assumes responsibility for this installation.
• Installation of a replacement heat exchanger requires new heat exchanger gaskets.
