FIRE, INJURY OR DEATH HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

injury, death, and/or property damage.
When the furnace is installed in a residential garage, the

burners and ignition sources must be located at least 18

inches (457 mm) above the floor. The furnace must be

located or protected to avoid damage by vehicles. When the

furnace is installed in a public garage, airplane hangar, or

other building having a hazardous atmosphere, the furnace

must be installed in accordance with the NFGC. (See Fig.

5.)

FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

injury, death and/or property damage.
Do not install the furnace on its back or hang furnace with

control compartment facing downward. Safety control

operation will be adversely affected. Never connect

return--air ducts to the back of the furnace. (See Fig. 6.)

PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Improper use or installation of this furnace may cause

premature component failure. This gas furnace may be used

for construction heat provided that:
--The furnace is permanently installed with all electrical

wiring, piping, venting and ducting installed according to

these installation instructions. A return air duct is provided,

sealed to the furnace casing, and terminated outside the

space containing the furnace. This prevents a negative

pressure condition as created by the circulating air blower,

causing a flame roll--out and/or drawing combustion

products into the structure.

--The furnace is controlled by a thermostat. It may not be

”hot wired” to provide heat continuously to the structure

without thermostatic control.

--Clean outside air is provided for combustion. This is to

minimize the corrosive effects of adhesives, sealers and

other construction materials. It also prevents the

entrainment of drywall dust into combustion air, which can

cause fouling and plugging of furnace components.

--The temperature of the return air to the furnace is

maintained between 55_F (13_C) and 80_F (27_C), with

no evening setback or shutdown. The use of the furnace

while the structure is under construction is deemed to be

intermittent operation per our installation instructions.

--The air temperature rise is within the rated rise range on

the furnace rating plate, and the gas input rate has been set

to the nameplate value.

--The filters used to clean the circulating air during the

construction process must be either changed or thoroughly

cleaned prior to occupancy.

--The furnace, ductwork and filters are cleaned as necessary

to remove drywall dust and construction debris from all

HVAC system components after construction is completed.

--Verify proper furnace operating conditions including

ignition, gas input rate, air temperature rise, and venting

according to these installation instructions.

CAUTION

!

LOCATION RELATIVE TO COOLING EQUIPMENT
The cooling coil must be installed parallel with, or on the

downstream side of the unit to avoid condensation in the heat
exchangers. When installed parallel with the furnace, dampers or

other flow control must prevent chilled air from entering the

furnace. If the dampers are manually operated, they must be
equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless

the damper is in the full--heat or full--cool position.

AIR FOR COMBUSTION AND

VENTILATION

Provisions for adequate combustion, ventilation, and dilution air
must be provided in accordance with:
U.S. installations: Section 9.3 of the NFPA 54 /A ANSI
Z223.1--2009, Air for Combustion and Ventilation, and

applicable provisions of the local building codes.
