To connect an electronic air cleaner using the line voltage
EAC terminal:
• Turn OFF power to the furnace before installing any
accessories.
• Follow the air cleaner manufacturers' instructions
for locating, mounting, grounding, and controlling
accessories. Utilize 1/4" quick connect terminals to
make accessory wiring connections to the furnace
integrated control module.
• Connect the hot terminal utilized for accessory
operation to the EAC terminal and the neutral side
of power to NEUTRAL bus on the integrated furnace
control or the neutral connection in the furnace
junction box.
• All field wiring must conform to applicable codes.
• If it is necessary for the installer to supply additional
line voltage wiring to the inside of the furnace, the
wiring must conform to all local codes, and have a
minimum temperature rating of 105°C.
• All line voltage wire splices must be made inside the
furnace junction box.
STARTUP PROCEDURE & ADJUSTMENT
Furnace must have a 115 VAC power supply properly
connected and grounded. Proper polarity must be
maintained for correct operation. In addition to the following
start-up and adjustment items, refer to further information
in Operational Checks section.
Furnace Cabinet
Check that all furnace cabinet sealing components are in
place (plugs, grommets, gaskets). NOTE: If the furnace
bottom panel has not been removed for a return duct
connection, all perforations must be sealed with duct
sealant compound or other suitable method to prevent
air leakage. For optimal performance verify that all door
gaskets are properly in place and replace as needed to
prevent air leakage.
Drain Trap Priming
The drain trap MUST be primed prior to furnace startup.
To prime, fill both sides of the drain trap with water.
This ensures proper furnace drainage upon startup and
prohibits the possibility of flue gases escaping through the
drain system.
Furnace Operation
Purge gas lines of air prior to startup. Be sure not purge
lines into an enclosed burner compartment. Follow NFPA
54, National Fuel Gas Code for proper purging methods.
In Canada, follow approved purging methods in CAN/CSA
B149.1-15.
Check for leaks using an approved chloride-free soap and
water solution, an electronic combustible gas detector,
or other approved method. Verify that all required kits
(propane gas, high altitude, etc.) have been appropriately
installed.
Furnace Startup
1. Close the manual gas shutoff valve external to the
furnace.
2. Turn off the electrical power to the furnace.
3. Set the room thermostat to the lowest possible
setting.
4. Remove the burner compartment door.
NOTE: This furnace is equipped with an ignition
device which automatically lights the burner. Do
not try to light the burner by hand.
5. Move the furnace gas valve manual control to the
OFF position.
6. Wait five minutes then smell for gas. Be sure check
near the floor as some types of gas are heavier than
air.
7. If you smell gas after five minutes, immediately follow
the safety instructions in the Safety Considerations
on page 3 of this manual. If you do not smell gas after
five minutes, move the furnace gas valve manual
control to the ON position.
8. Replace the burner compartment door.
9. Open the manual gas shutoff valve external to the
furnace.
10. Turn on the electrical power to the furnace.
11. Adjust the thermostat to a setting above room
temperature.
12. After the burners are lit, set the thermostat to desired
temperature.
Furnace Shutdown
Set the thermostat to the lowest setting. The integrated
control will close the gas valve and extinguish flame.
Following a 15 second delay, the induced draft blower will
be de-energized. After the blower off delay time expires,
the blower de-energizes.
13. Remove the burner compartment door and move the
furnace gas valve manual control to the OFF position.
14. Close the manual gas shutoff valve external to the
furnace.
15. Replace the burner compartment door.
