UNIT LOCATION

The furnace area and the vicinity of any other gas appliances
must be kept clear and free of combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids. Also, do
not store or use flammable items such as paint, varnish or
lacquer in the area.
Do not store or use chlorine or fluorine products (bleaches,
cements, strippers, aerosols) near the unit. They can corrode
the heat exchanger.
Do not use the furnace closet as storage for brooms, mops,
brushes and oily rags or cloths. The area must be kept clear,
clean and free of lint. The furnace must be kept free and clear
of exposed or loose insulation materials in the area of
installation. Examine the furnace area when the furnace or
additional insulation is added since some insulation materials
may be combustible.
Check that the furnace is always connected to an approved
vent that is in good condition, to carry combustion products
outdoors.
Familiarize yourself with the controls that turn off the gas and
electrical power to the furnace. If the furnace is to be shut
down at the end of the heating season, turn off both the gas
and electrical power. For safety, always turn the gas and
electrical power off before performing service or maintenance
on the furnace.
Establish a regular maintenance schedule to ensure efficient
and safe operation of the furnace. The furnace should be
checked at the beginning of each heating and cooling season
by a qualified service technician.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or fire, minimum clearances to
combustible surfaces must be followed.
Make certain the required clearances for the furnace are
always maintained. These clearances are listed on the
furnace clearance label. If any question develops, contact the
installer of the furnace, or another qualified servicer.

UNIT INSTALLATION

Examine the furnace installation to determine the following:
All flue product carrying passages external to the furnace (for
example, chimney, vent connector) are clear and free of
obstructions.
The vent connector is in place, slopes upward and is
physically sound without holes or excessive corrosion.
The return air duct connection is physically sound, sealed to
the furnace casing and terminates outside of the space
containing the furnace.
The physical support of the furnace is sound without sagging,
cracks or gaps around the base so as to provide a seal
between the support and the base.
There are no obvious signs of deterioration of the furnace.
