casing and filter for increased filter area. Placing fitter
(field-supplied) directly against furnace bottom or side
will decrease airflow and adversely affect furnace
operation. Allow 1 inch clearance from furnace filter
(field-suf^tied) to furnace.

2. Horizontal Position.

Horizontal position should use an appropriately sized and
installed return air filter grille or duct work air fitter.
