UPFLOW UNITS
The trap may be moved to the right
side for right side drainage. Open the
knockout for the drain on the right
side of the cabinet. Remove the
bracket holding the trap from the left
side. Seal the left side drain hole with
a plug provided in the cloth bag with
the furnace. Position the mounting
bracket and trap so that the drain
elbow is centered in the hole on
the right. See Figure 33.
Drill two holes in the cabinet to mount
the bracket. Mount the trap and
bracket to the right side with the drain
elbow pointing through the knockout.

Connect the
/
-in. pipe and tee as

noted above. Route the drain hoses
behind the control box, cut to the
appropriate length, and connect to the
trap with hose clamps.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ALLOW ANY
SAGS OR KINKS IN THE HOSES.
This prevents proper condensate
flow.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect into
a common drain line with an air
conditioner evaporator coil drain
located above the furnace. A blocked
or restricted drain line can result in
overflow of the coil pan and negate
the furnace blocked drain shutoff
control.

DOWNFLOW UNITS
To convert to left side drainage, first
remove the drainage hoses from the
trap. Remove the trap from its
mounting bracket, rotate it 180°, and
mount in place with the drainage
elbow pointing to the left. Reattach
the drain hoses. Remove the plastic
drainage knockout from the left side.
See Figure 34.
IMPORTANT: When changing to the
left side, interchange the rubber
bushing on the right side with the hole
plug on the left side. The hole plug
must be in place to assure that the
control compartment is sealed.
As of September 2, 2006, to convert
downflow models to left-hand drain, a
kit (RXGY-H01) must be ordered from
the distributor. The kit includes a 24"

piece of
" black PVC pipe, a 2"
2
rubber grommet, a 1-5/8" plug and
instructions. Note the location of the
alternate drain hole as shown in
Figure 34.
