The ML193UHE can be installed as either a Non-Direct
Vent or a Direct Vent gas central furnace.
NOTE - In Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air
is taken from indoors and flue gases are discharged out-
doors. In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken
from outdoors and flue gases are discharged outdoors.
Intake and exhaust pipe sizing -- Size pipe according to
TABLE 12 (minimum pipe lengths) and TABLE 13 (maxi-
mum pipe lengths. Count all elbows inside and outside the
home. TABLE 14 lists maximum pipe lengths for furnaces
installed in a closet or basement using ventilated attic or
crawl space for intake air.
Regardless of the diameter of pipe used, the standard roof
and wall terminations described in section Exhaust Piping
Terminations should be used. Exhaust vent termination
pipe is sized to optimize the velocity of the exhaust gas as
it exits the termination. Refer to TABLE 16.
In some applications which permit the use of several dif-
ferent sizes of vent pipe, a combination vent pipe may be
used. Contact Lennox' Application Department for assis-
tance in sizing vent pipe in these applications.
NOTE - The exhaust collar on all models is sized to ac-
commodate 2" Schedule 40 vent pipe. In horizontal ap-
plications, any transition to exhaust pipe larger than 2"
must be made in vertical runs of the pipe. Therefore a 2"
elbow must be added before the pipe is transitioned to
any size larger than 2". This elbow must be added to the
elbow count used to determine acceptable vent lengths.
Contact the Application Department for more information
concerning sizing of vent systems which include multiple
pipe sizes.

NOTE -
ward unit. A minimum of 1/4" (6mm) drop for each 12" (305mm)
of horizontal run is mandatory for drainage.
NOTE - Exhaust pipe MUST be glued to furnace exhaust fitting,
unless the optional glueless vent adapter kit 17H92 is used..
NOTE - Exhaust piping should be checked carefully to make
sure there are no sags or low spots.

Do not use screens or perforated metal in exhaust
or intake terminations. Doing so will cause freeze-
ups and may block the terminations.
