Return Air -- Horizontal Applications
Return air may be brought in only through the end of a furnace
installed in the horizontal position. The furnace is equipped
with a removable bottom panel to facilitate installation. See
Figure 13.
Filters
This unit is not equipped with a filter or rack. A field provided
filter is required for the unit to operate properly. Table 1 list
recommended filter sizes.
A filter must be in place whenever the is operating.
Duct System
Use industry approved standards to size and install the
supply and return air duct system. This will result in a quiet
and low-static system that has uniform air distribution.
NOTE: This furnace is not certified for operation in heating
mode (indoor blower operating at selected heating speed)
with an external static pressure which exceeds 0.5 inches
w.c. Operation at these conditions may result in improper
limit operation.
Supply Air Plenum
If the furnace is installed without a cooling coil, a removable
access panel should be installed in the supply air duct. The
access panel should be large enough to permit inspection
(by reflected light) of the heat exchanger for leaks after the
furnace is installed. The furnace access panel must always
be in place when the furnace is operating and it must not
allow leaks into the supply air duct system.
Return Air Plenum
NOTE: Return air must not be drawn from a room where
this furnace, or any other gas fueled appliance (i.e., water
heater), or carbon monoxide producing device (i.e.,
wood fireplace) is installed.
When return air is drawn from a room, a negative pressure
is created in the room. If a gas appliance is operating in a
room with negative pressure, the flue products can be pulled
back down the vent pipe and into the room. This reverse
flow of the flue gas may result in incomplete combustion
and the formation of carbon monoxide gas. This raw gas or
toxic fumes might then be distributed throughout the house
by the furnace duct system.
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace. If a furnace with bottom return air is
installed on a platform, make an airtight seal between the
bottom of the furnace and the platform to ensure that the
unit operates properly and safely. Use fiberglass sealing
strips, caulking, or equivalent sealing method between the
plenum and the furnace cabinet to ensure a tight seal. If a
filter is installed, size the return air duct to fit the filter frame.
Pipe & Fittings Specifications
All pipe, fittings, primer and solvent cement must conform
with American National Standard Institute and the American
Society for Testing and Materials (ANSI/ASTM) standards.
The solvent shall be free flowing and contain no lumps,
undissolved particles or any foreign matter that adversely
affects the joint strength or chemical resistance of the
cement. The cement shall show no gelation, stratification,
or separation that cannot be removed by stirring. Refer to
Table 2 for approved piping and fitting materials.
