!
Important Installation and Start-up Procedures
Failure to follow this procedure may result in a nuisance smoke or odor
complaint.
The manifold pressure, gas rate by meter clocking, temperature rise and
operation must be checked after installation. Minor smoke and odor
may be present temporarily after start-up from the manufacturing
process. Some occupants are more sensitive to this minor smoke and
odor. It is recommended that doors and windows be open during the
first heat cycle.

use with natural gas. The furnace can be converted in the field for use
with propane gas when a factory-supplied conversion kit is used. Refer
to the furnace rating plate for conversion kit information.
This furnace is not approved for installation in mobile homes,
recreational vehicles, or outdoors.
This furnace is designed for minimum continuous return-air temperature
of 60°F (15°C) db or intermittent operation down to 55°F (13°C) db such
as when used with a night setback thermostat. Return-air temperature
must not exceed 80°F (27°C) db. Failure to follow these return-air
temperature limits may affect reliability of heat exchangers, motors, and
controls, see Fig. 3.
Fig. 3 – Freeze Protection and Return Air Temperature
The furnace should be sized to provide 100 percent of the design heating
load requirement plus any margin that occurs because of furnace model
size capacity increments. None of the furnace model sizes can be used if
the heating load is 20,000 BTU or lower. Use Air Conditioning
Contractors of America (Manual J and S); American Society of Heating,
Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers; or other approved
engineering method to calculate heating load estimates and select the
furnace. Excessive oversizing of the furnace may cause the furnace
and/or vent to fail prematurely, customer discomfort and/or vent
freezing.
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.

Failure to follow these guidelines is considered faulty installation and/or
misapplication of the furnace; and resulting failure, damage, or repairs
may impact warranty coverage.

FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death
and/or property damage.
Do not install the furnace on its back or hang furnace with control
compartment facing downward. Safety control operation will be
adversely affected. Never connect return-air ducts to the back of the
furnace, see Fig. 4.
