(Left-Hand Trap Installation)
a. Remove factory-installed plug from LOWER collector box
drain tube (blue and white striped label).
b. Install removed clamp and plug into UPPER collector box
drain tube (blue label) which was connected to condensate
trap.
c. Connect LOWER collector box drain connection to con-
densate trap.
(1.) Condensate Trap Located on Left Side of Casing
(a.) Connect LOWER collector box drain tube (blue
and white striped label) to condensate trap. Tube
does not need to be cut.
(b.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
(2.) Condensate Trap Located on Right Side of Casing
(a.) Install drain tube coupling (factory-supplied in
loose parts bag) into collector box drain tube
(blue and white striped label) which was previ-
ously plugged.
(b.) Connect larger diameter drain tube (factory-
supplied in loose parts bag) to drain tube cou-
pling, extending collector box drain tube for
connection to condensate trap.
(c.) Route extended collector box drain tube directly
from collector box drain to condensate trap as
shown in Fig. 9.
(d.) Determine appropriate length and cut.
(e.) Connect to condensate trap.
(f.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
2. Inducer Housing Drain Tube
a. Remove factory-installed cap and clamp from LOWER
inducer housing drain connection.

b. Remove and discard UPPER (molded) inducer housing
drain tube which was previously connected to condensate
trap.
c. Install cap and clamp on UPPER inducer housing drain
connection where molded drain tube was removed.
d. Use inducer housing drain tube (violet label and factory-
supplied in loose parts bag) to connect LOWER inducer
housing drain connection to the condensate trap.
e. Connect inducer housing drain connection to condensate
trap.
(1.) Condensate Trap Located on Left Side of Casing
(a.) Determine appropriate length and cut.
(b.) Connect tube to condensate trap.
(c.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
(2.) Condensate Trap Located on Right Side of Casing
(a.) Route inducer housing drain tube (violet label)
directly from inducer housing to condensate trap
as shown in Fig. 9.
(b.) Determine appropriate length and cut.
(c.) Connect tube to condensate trap.
(d.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
3. Relief Port Tube
Refer to Pressure Switch Tubing section for connection
procedure.
CONDENSATE TRAP FIELD DRAIN ATTACHMENT
Refer to Condensate Drain section for recommendations and
procedures.
PRESSURE SWITCH TUBING
One collector box pressure tube (pink label) is factory connected to
the pressure switch for use when furnace is installed in UPFLOW
