Suspended Installation of Horizontal Unit

This furnace may be installed in either an attic or a crawl

space. Either suspend the furnace from roof rafters or floor

joists, as shown in Figure 16, or install the furnace on a

platform, as shown in Figure 17. A horizontal suspension kit

(51W10) may be ordered from your distributor or use

equivalent.

NOTE: Heavy-gauge sheet metal straps may be used to

suspend the unit from roof rafters or ceiling joists. When

straps are used to suspend the unit in this way, support

must be provided for both the ends. The straps must not

interfere with the plenum or exhaust piping installation.

Cooling coils and supply and return air plenums must

be supported separately.

NOTE: When the furnace is installed on a platform or with

the horizontal suspension kit in a crawl space, it must be

elevated enough to avoid water damage, accommodate drain

trap and to allow the evaporator coil to drain.

Platform Installation of Horizontal Unit

1. Select location for unit keeping in mind service and other

necessary clearances. See Figure 15.

2. Construct a raised wooden frame and cover frame with

a plywood sheet. If unit is installed above finished space,

fabricate an auxiliary drain pan to be installed under unit.

Set unit in drain pan as shown in Figure 17. Leave 8

inches for service clearance below unit for condensate

trap.

3. Provide a service platform in front of unit. When installing

the unit in a crawl space, a proper support platform may

be created using cement blocks.

4. Route auxiliary drain line so that water draining from

this outlet will be easily noticed by the homeowner.

5. If necessary, run the condensate line into a condensate

pump to meet drain line slope requirements. The pump

must be rated for use with condensing furnaces. Protect

the condensate discharge line from the pump to the

outside to avoid freezing.

6. Continue with exhaust, condensate and intake piping

installation according to instructions.

* Front clearance in alcove installation must be 24 in. (610 mm).

Maintain a minimum of 24 in. (610 mm) for front service access.

** An 8” service clearance must be maintained below the unit to provide

for servicing of the condensate trap unless the trap is mounted

remotely.

‡ For installations on a combustible floor, do not install the furnace

directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible materials other than

wood flooring.
