Installation Instructions
for *R9S96*U Ultra Low
NOx Gas Furnace
(Type FSP CATEGORY IV Direct
or Non Direct Vent Air Furnace)
(Type FSP CATÉGORIE IV Direct
ou four á air soufflé non direct)
These furnaces comply with requirements embodied
in the American National Standard/National Standard
of Canada ANSI Z21.47·CSA-2.3 Gas Fired Central
Furnaces.
s a professional installer you have an obligation to know
A
the product better than the customer. This includes all
safety precautions and related items.
Prior to actual installation, thoroughly familiarize yourself
with this Instruction Manual. Pay special attention to all
safety warnings. Often during installation or repair it is

or R32 may require an additional mitigation control board.
Refer to the installation manual of the indoor evaporator
coil to determine installation requirements for that suppli-
er's refrigerant detection system.
