heating or cooling unit.

must be installed downstream from the air fi lter.

If furnace opening cannot be enlarged to required size, a
transition sheet metal section must be used. Transition must
be planned for each job. Reduction should not be more than
4 inches per linear foot, approximately 20 angular degrees
