FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death or property damage.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.
Use a commercially available soap solution made
specifically for the detection of leaks to check all
connections. A fire or explosion may result causing
property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
AVERTISSEMENT
RISQUE D'INCENDIE OU D'EXPLOSION
Si les consignes de sécurité ne sont pas suivies à la lettre,
cela peut entraîner la mort, de graves blessures ou des
dommages matériels.
Ne jamais vérifier la présence de fuites de gaz au moyen
d'une flamme nue. Vérifier tous les raccords en utilisant
une solution savonneuse commerciale conçue spécialement
pour la détection de fuites. Un incendie ou une explosion
risque de se produire, ce qui peut entraîner la mort, des
blessures ou des dommages matériels.
WARNING

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Adhere to the following warnings and cautions when
installing, adjusting, altering, servicing, or operating the
furnace. To ensure proper installation and operation,
thoroughly read this manual for specifics pertaining to the
installation and application of this product.
This furnace is manufactured for use with natural gas. It
may be field converted to operate on L.P. gas by using the
appropriate L.P. conversion kit listed in the PROPANE
GAS/HIGH ALTITUDE INSTALLATIONS section of this
manual.
Install this furnace only in a location and position
as specified in LOCATION REQUIREMENTS &
CONSIDERATIONS section and INSTALLATION
POSITIONS section of this manual.
Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to the
furnace as specified in COMBUSTION & VENTILATION
AIR REQUIREMENTS section of this manual.
Combustion products must be discharged to the outdoors.
Connect this furnace to an approved vent system only, as
specified in VENT/FLUE PIPE & COMBUSTION AIR PIPE
section of this manual.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a
commercially available soap solution made specifically for
the detection of leaks to check all connections, as specified
in GAS SUPPLY AND PIPING section of this manual.
Always install a furnace to operate within the furnace's
intended temperature-rise range with a duct system which
has external static pressure within the allowable range, as
specified on the furnace rating plate and OPERATIONAL
CHECKS section of these instructions.
When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry
air circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space
containing the furnace, the return air shall also be handled
by duct(s) sealed to the furnace casing and terminating
outside the space containing the furnace.
FROZEN AND BURST WATER PIPE HAZARD
Failure to protect against the risk of freezing may result
in property damage. Since precautions MUST be made
if installing furnace in an area which may drop below
freezing. This can cause improper operation or damage to
equipment. If the furnace environment has the potential of
freezing, the drain trap and drain line must be protected.
The use of accessory drain trap heaters, electric heat
tape and/or RV antifreeze is recommended for these
installations.
