SIDE RETURN
Locate the “L” shaped corner locators. These indicate the size of the cut-
out to be made in the furnace side panel. Refer to Figure 13, "Side
Return Cutout Markings".
Install the side filter rack following the instructions provided with that
accessory. If a filter(s) is provided at another location in the return air
system, the ductwork may be directly attached to the furnace side
panel.
HORIZONTAL APPLICATION
Horizontal Filters
Any branch duct (rectangular or round duct) attached to the plenum
must attach to the vertical plenum before the filter. The use of straps
and / or supports is required to support the weight of the external filter
box.
Downflow Filters
Downflow furnaces typically are installed with the filters located above
the furnace, extending into the return air plenum or duct. Any branch
duct (rectangular or round duct) attached to the plenum must attach to
the vertical plenum above the filter height.
Filter(s) may be located in the duct system external to the furnace using
an external duct filter box attached to the furnace plenum or at the end
of the duct in a return filter grille(s). The use of straps and/or supports is
required to support the weight of the external filter box.
SECTION IV: GAS PIPING
GAS SAFETY
GAS PIPING INSTALLATION
Properly sized wrought iron, approved flexible or steel pipe must be
used when making gas connections to the unit. If local codes allow the
use of a flexible gas appliance connection, always use a new listed con-
nector. Do not use a connector that has previously serviced another gas
appliance.
Some utility companies or local codes require pipe sizes larger than the
minimum sizes listed in these instructions and in the codes. The furnace
rating plate and the instructions in this section specify the type of gas
approved for this furnace - only use those approved gases. The instal-
lation of a drip leg and ground union is required. Refer to Figure 15,
"Upflow/Downflow Gas Piping".
FIGURE 13: Side Return Cutout Markings
Some accessories such as electronic air cleaners and pleated
media may require a larger side opening. Follow the instructions
supplied with that accessory for side opening requirements. Do not
cut the opening larger than the dimensions shown in Figure 12,
"Dimensions".
All filters and mounting provision must be field supplied. All installa-
tions must have a filter installed.
An overpressure protection device, such as a pressure regulator,
must be installed in the gas piping system upstream of the furnace
and must act to limit the downstream pressure to the gas valve so it
does not exceed 0.5 PSI (14" w.c. (3.48 kPa). Pressures exceeding
0.5 PSI (14” w.c. (3.48 kPa) at the gas valve will cause damage to
the gas valve, resulting in a fire or explosion or cause damage to
the furnace or some of its components that will result in property
damage and loss of life.

Plan your gas supply before determining the correct gas pipe entry.
Use 90-degree service elbow(s), or short nipples and conventional
90-degree elbow(s) to enter through the cabinet access holes.

FIGURE 16: Horizontal Gas Piping
An accessible manual shutoff valve must be installed upstream of
the furnace gas controls and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of the furnace.
