GENERAL
This multipoise furnace is shipped in packaged configuration. Some
assembly and modifications are required when used in any of the four
applications shown in Fig. 4.
This furnace must:
• be installed so the electrical components are protected from water.
• not be installed directly on any combustible mateial other than wood
flooring for upflow applications. Downflow installations require use
of a factory-approved floor base or coil assembly when installed on
combustible materials or wood flooring (refer to SAFETY
CONSIDERATIONS).

WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death,
and unit component damage.
Corrosive or contaminated air may cause failure of parts containing flue
gas, which could leak into the living space. Air for combustion must not
be contaminated by halogen compounds, which include fluoride,
chloride, bromide, and iodide. These elements can corrode heat
exchangers and shorten furnace life. Air contaminants are found in
aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air
fresheners, and other household products. Do not install furnace in a
corrosive or contaminated atmosphere. Make sure all combustion and
circulating air requirements are met, in addition to all local codes and
ordinances.
The following types of furnace installations may require OUTDOOR
AIR for combustion due to chemical exposures:
• Commercial buildings
• Buildings with indoor pools
• Laundry rooms
• Hobby or craft rooms, and
• Chemical storage areas
If air is exposed to the following substances, it should not be used for
combustion air, and outdoor air may be required for combustion:
• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals
Manufacturer reserves the right to change, at any time, specifications and designs without notice and without obligations.
• Water softening chemicals
• De-icing salts or chemicals
• Carbon tetrachloride
• Halogen type refrigerants
