FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS VOIDS THE MANUFACTURER’S
EQUIPMENT LIMITED WARRANTY. MRCOOL
DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH
INSTALLER’S FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, INSTALLER
IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CONFIRMING THAT THE USE
OF CONSTRUCTION HEAT IS CONSISTENT WITH
THE POLICIES AND CODES OF ALL REGULATING
ENTITIES. ALL SUCH POLICIES AND CODES MUST BE
ADHERED TO.
General
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do
not supersede local codes in any way. Consult authorities
having jurisdiction before installation.
In addition to the requirements outlined previously, the
following general recommendations must be considered
when installing one of these furnaces:
• Place the furnace as close to the center of the air
distribution system as possible. The furnace should
also be located close to the vent termination point.
• When the furnace is installed in non-direct vent
applications, do not install the furnace where drafts
might blow directly into it. This could cause improper
combustion and unsafe operation.
• When the furnace is installed in a non-direct vent
applications, do not block the furnace combustion air
opening with clothing, boxes, doors, etc. Air is needed
for proper combustion and safe unit operation.
• When the furnace is installed in an attic or other
insulated space, keep insulation away from the
furnace.
• When the furnace is installed in an unconditioned
space, consider provisions required to prevent freezing
of the condensate drain system.
NOTE: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts stipulates
these additional requirements:
• Gas furnaces shall be installed by a licensed plumber
or tter only.
• The gas cock must be “T handle” type.
• When a furnace is installed in an attic, the passageway
to and service area surrounding the equipment shall
be oored.
These units should not be installed in areas normally
subject to freezing temperatures.
CAUTION
Combustion, Dilution & Ventilation Air
If this unit is installed as a Non-Direct Vent Furnace, follow
the guidelines in this section.
NOTE: In Non-Direct Vent Installations, combustion air is
taken from indoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors.
In the past, there was no problem in bringing in su󰀩cient
outdoor air for combustion. Inltration provided all the air
that was needed. In today’s homes, tight construction
practices make it necessary to bring in air from outside
for combustion. Take into account that exhaust fans,
appliance vents, chimneys, and replaces force additional
air that could be used for combustion out of the house.
Unless outside air is brought into the house for combustion,
negative pressure (outside pressure is greater than inside
pressure) will build to the point that a down draft can
occur in the furnace vent pipe or chimney. As a result,
combustion gases enter the living space creating a
potentially dangerous situation.
In the absence of local codes concerning air for combustion
and ventilation, use the guidelines and procedures in this
section to install these furnaces to ensure e󰀩cient and safe
operation. You must consider combustion air needs and
requirements for exhaust vents and gas piping. A portion
of this information has been reprinted with permission from
the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1/NFPA 54). This
reprinted material is not the complete and o󰀩cial position
of ANSI on the referenced subject, which is represented
only by the standard in its entirely.
In Canada, refer to the CSA B149 Installation codes.

Insu󰀩cient combustion air can cause headaches,
nausea, dizziness or asphyxiation. It will also cause
excess water in the heat exchanger resulting in rusting
and premature heat exchanger failure. Excessive
exposure to contaminated combustion air will result
in safety and performance related problems. Avoid
exposure to the following substances in the combustion
air supply:
• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine base swimming pool chemicals
• Water softening chemicals
• De-icing salts or chemicals
• Carbon tetrachloride
• Halogen type refrigerants
• Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene)
• Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.
• Hydrochloric acid
• Cements and glues
• Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers
• Masonry acid washing materials
WARNING
All gas-red appliances require air for the combustion
process. If su󰀩cient combustion air is not available,
the furnace or other appliance will operate ine󰀩ciently
and unsafely. Enough air must be provided to meet the
needs of all fuel-burning appliances and appliances such
as exhaust fans which force air out of the house. When
replaces, exhaust fans, or clothes dryers are used at the
same time as the furnace, much more air is required to
ensure proper combustion and to prevent a down draft.
Insu󰀩cient air causes incomplete combustion which can
result in carbon monoxide.
In addition to providing combustion air, fresh outdoor air
dilutes contaminants in the indoor air. These contaminants
may include bleaches, adhesives, detergents, solvents
and other contaminants which can corrode furnace
components.
The requirements for providing air for combustion and
ventilation depend largely on whether the furnace is
installed in an unconned or a conned space.
Unconned Space
An unconned space is an area such as a basement
or large equipment room with a volume greater than 50
cubic feet (1.42 m³) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of
the combined input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. This space also includes adjacent rooms which are
not separated by a door. Though an area may appear to
be unconned, it might be necessary to bring in outdoor air
for combustion if the structure does not provide enough air
by inltration.
Do not install the furnace in a corrosive or contaminated
atmosphere. Meet all combustion and ventilation air
requirements, as well as all local codes.
CAUTION
If the furnace is located in a building of tight construction
with weather stripping and caulking around the windows
and doors, follow the procedures in the “Air from Outside”
section.
Conned Space
A conned space is an area with a volume less than 50
cubic feet (1.42 m³) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of
the combined input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. This denition includes furnace closets or small
equipment rooms.
When the furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry
air circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space
containing the furnace, the return air must be handled by
ducts which are sealed to the furnace casing and which
terminate outside the space containing the furnace. This
is especially important when the furnace is mounted on
a platform in a conned space such as a closet or small
equipment room. Even a small leak around the base of the
unit at the platform or at the return air duct connection can
cause a potentially dangerous negative pressure condition.
Air for combustion and ventilation can be brought into the
conned space either from inside the building or from
outside.
Air from Inside
If the conned space that houses the furnace adjoins a
space categorized as unconned, air can be brought in
by providing two permanent openings between the two
spaces. Each opening must have a minimum free area of 1
square inch (645 mm²) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of
total input rating of all gas-red equipment in the conned
space. Each opening must be at least 100 square inches
(64516 mm²). One opening shall be within 12 inches (305
mm) of the top of the enclosure and one opening within 12
inches (305 mm) of the bottom. See Figure 4.

Air from Outside
If air from outside is brought in for combustion and
ventilation, the conned space shall be provided with two
permanent openings. One opening shall be within 12” (305
mm) of the top of the enclosure and one within 12” (305 mm)
of the bottom. These openings must communicate directly
or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that
freely communicate with the outdoors or indirectly through
vertical ducts. Each opening shall have a minimum free
area of 1 square inch per 4,000 Btu (645 mm² per .59 kW)

When ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross-
sectional area as the free area of the openings to which
they connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular
air ducts shall be no less than 3 inches (75 mm). In
calculating free area, the blocking e󰀨ect of louvers, grilles,
or screens must be considered. If the design and free area
of protective covering is not known for calculating the size
opening required, it may be assumed that wood louvers
will have 20 to 25 percent free area and metal louvers and
grilles will have 60 to 75 percent free area. Louvers and
grilles must be xed in the open position or interlocked
with the equipment so that they are opened automatically

exhaust fan, power exhaust fan, or other device which
may create a negative pressure in the space, take care
when sizing the inlet air opening. The inlet air opening
must be sized to accommodate the maximum volume
of exhaust air as well as the maximum volume of
combustion air required for all gas appliances serviced
by this space.
CAUTION
Installation
Setting Equipment
Do not install the furnace on its front, back or in the
horizontal position. See Figure 11. Do no connect the
return air ducts to the back of the furnace. Doing so
will adversely a󰀨ect the operation of the safety control
devices, which could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION
Select a location that allows for the required clearances
that are listed on the unit nameplate. Also consider gas
supply connections, electrical supply, vent connection,
condensate trap and drain connections, and installation
and service clearances [24 inches (610 mm) at unit front].
The unit must be level from side to side. Tilt the unit slightly
(maximum 1/2 in. from level) from back to front to aid in the
draining of the heat exchanger. See Figure 12.
Shipping Bolt Removal

Unit must be level side−to−side. Unit may be positioned
from level to 1/2" toward the front to aid in draining.
Improper installation of the furnace can result in
personal injury or death. Combustion and ue products
must never be allowed to enter the return air system or
air in the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint
tape to seal return air system to furnace.
In platform installations with furnace return, the furnace
should be sealed airtight to the return air plenum. A door
must never be used as a portion of the return air duct
system. The base must provide a stable support and an
airtight seal to the furnace. Allow absolutely no sagging,
cracks, gaps, etc.
For no reason should return and supply air duct systems
ever be connected to or from other heating devices
such as a replace or stove, etc. Fire, explosion, carbon
monoxide poisoning, personal injury and/or property
damage could result.
WARNING
The unit may be installed three ways in downow
applications: on non-combustible ooring, on combustible
ooring using an additive base, or on a reverse-ow
cooling coil cabinet. Do not drag the unit across the oor
in the downow position. Floor and furnace ange damage
will result.

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 certied 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 reected 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
replace) 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 ue products can be
pulled back down the vent pipe and into the room. This
reverse ow of the ue gas may result in incomplete
combustion and the formation of carbon monoxide gas.
This toxic gas might then be distributed throughout the
house by the furnace duct system.
Use berglass sealing strips, caulking, or equivalent
sealing method between the plenum and the furnace
cabinet to ensure a tight seal. If a lter is installed, size the
return air duct to t the lter frame.
Pipe & Fittings Specications
All pipe, ttings, 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 owing and contain no lumps,
undissolved particles or any foreign matter that adversely
a󰀨ects the joint strength or chemical resistance of the
cement. The cement shall show no gelation, stratication,
or separation that cannot be removed by stirring. Refer to
Table 4 below for approved piping and tting materials.
background
507769C05 Page 13 of 55
mrcool.com
Solvent cements for plastic pipe are ammable liquids
and should be kept away from all sources of ignition.
Do not use excessive amounts of solvent cement when
making joints. Good ventilation should be maintained to
reduce re hazard and to minimize breathing of solvent
vapors. Avoid contact of cement with skin and eyes.
CAUTION
Use PVC primer and solvent cement or ABS solvent
cement meeting ASTM specications; refer to Table 4.
As an alternate, use all purpose cement, to bond ABS,
PVC, or CPVC pipe when using ttings and pipe made of
the same materials. Use transition solvent cement when
bonding ABS to either PVC or CPVC.

inside socket surface of tting and male end of pipe to
depth of tting socket.
The exhaust and intake connections are made of PVC.
Use PVC primer and solvent cement when using PVC
vent pipe. When using ABS vent pipe, use transitional
solvent cement to make connections to the PVC tting
in the unit.
IMPORTANT
Canadian Applications Only
Pipe, ttings, primer and solvent cement used to vent
(exhaust) this appliance must be certied to ULC S636 and
supplied by a single manufacturer as part of an approved
vent (exhaust) system. When bonding the vent system to
the furnace, use ULC S636 approved One-Step Transition
Cement to bond the pipe to the ue collar. In addition, the
rst three feet of vent pipe from the furnace ue collar must
be accessible for inspection.

Table 5. Outdoor Termination Kits Usage
Joint Cementing Procedure
All cementing of joints should be done according to the
specications outlined in ASTM D 2855.
NOTE: A sheet metal screw may be used to secure the
intake pipe to the connector, if desired. Use a drill or self
tapping screw to make a pilot hole.
DANGER OF EXPLOSION!
Fumes from PVC glue may ignite during system check.
Allow fumes to dissipate for at least 5 minutes before
placing unit into operation.
DANGER
1. Measure and cut vent pipe to desired length.
2. Debur and chamfer end of pipe, removing any ridges
or rough edges. If end is not chamfered, edge of pipe
may remove cement from tting socket and result in a
leaking joint.
3. Clean and dry surfaces to be joined.
4. Test t joint and mark depth of tting on outside of pipe.
5. Uniformly apply a liberal coat of PVC primer for PVC
or use a clean dry cloth for ABS to clean inside socket
surface of tting and male end of pipe to depth of tting
socket.
6. Promptly apply solvent cement to end of pipe and
inside socket surface of tting. Cement should be
applied lightly but uniformly to inside of socket. Take
care to keep excess cement out of socket. Apply
second coat to end of pipe.
NOTE: Time is critical at this stage. Do Not allow
Primer to dry before applying cement.
7. Immediately after applying last coat of cement to pipe,
and while both inside socket surface and end of pipe
are wet with cement, forcefully insert end of pipe into
socket until it bottoms out. Turn PVC pipe 1/4 turn
during assembly (but not after pipe is fully inserted) to
distribute cement evenly. Do not turn ABS or cellular
core pipe.
background
507769C05 Page 15 of 55
mrcool.com
NOTE: Assembly should be completed within 20
seconds after last application of cement. Hammer
blows should not be used when inserting pipe.
8. After assembly, wipe excess cement from pipe at end
of tting socket. A properly made joint will show a bead
around its entire perimeter. Any gaps may indicate
an improper defective assembly due to insu󰀩cient
solvent.
9. Handle joints carefully until completely set.
Exhaust Piping
See Figure 22
1. In areas where piping penetrates joist or interior walls,
hole must be large enough to allow clearance on all
sides of pipe through center of hole using a hanger.
2. When furnace is installed in a residence where unit
is shut down for an extended period of time, such
as a vacation home, make provisions for draining
condensate collection trap and lines.
3. Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with
installation following instructions given in piping
termination section.
Do not discharge exhaust into an existing stack or
stack that also serves another gas appliance. If vertical
discharge through an existing unused stack is required,
insert PVC pipe inside the stack until the end is even
with the top or outlet end of the metal stack.
CAUTION
The exhaust vent pipe operates under positive pressure
and must be completely sealed to prevent leakage of
combustion products into the living space.
CAUTION
Vent Piping Guidelines
This gas furnace can be installed as either a Non-Direct
Vent or a Direct Vent gas central furnace.
NOTE: In non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air is
taken from indoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors.
In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken from
outdoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors.
Intake and exhaust pipe sizing - Size pipe according to
Table 6 and Table 7A through Table 7D. Table 6 lists the
minimum vent pipe lengths permitted. Table 7A through
Table 7D list the maximum pipe lengths permitted.
Regardless of the diameter of pipe used, the standard roof
and wall terminations described in section Exhaust Piping
Terminations should be used. Exhaust vent termination
pipe is sized to optimize the velocity of the exhaust gas as
it exits the termination.
In some applications which permit the use of several
di󰀨erent sizes of vent pipe, a combination vent pipe may
be used. Contact MRCOOL for assistance in sizing vent
pipe in these applications.
Venting Practices
Figure 19. Piping Suspension Guidelines
* See Table 4 for allowable pipe.
NOTE: Isolate piping at the point where it exits the outside wall or
roof in order to prevent transmission of vibration to the structure.

If this gas furnace replaces a furnace which was
commonly vented with another gas appliance,
the size of the existing vent pipe for that gas appliance
must be checked. Without the heat of the original
furnace flue products, the existing vent pipe is
probably oversized for the single water heater or
other appliance. The vent should be checked for
proper draw with the remaining appliance.

Intake Piping
This furnace may be installed in either direct vent or non-
direct vent applications. In non-direct vent applications,
when intake air will be drawn into the furnace from
the surrounding space, the indoor air quality must be
considered. Guidelines listed in Combustion, Dilution and
Ventilation Air section must be followed.
Follow the next two steps when installing the unit in Direct
Vent applications, where combustion air is taken from
outdoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors. The
provided air intake screen must not be used in direct vent
applications (outdoors).
1. Use cement or a sheet metal screw to secure the
intake pipe to the inlet air connector.
2. Route piping to outside of structure. Continue with
installation following instructions given in general
guide lines for piping terminations and intake and
exhaust piping terminations for direct vent sections.
Refer to Table 7A through Table 7D for pipe sizes.
Follow the next steps when installing the unit in Non-Direct
Vent applications where combustion air is taken from
indoors and ue gases are discharged outdoors.
1. Use eld-provided materials and the factory-provided
air intake screen to route the intake piping as shown
in Figure 24. Maintain a minimum clearance of 3” (76
mm) around the air intake opening. The air intake
opening (with the protective screen) should always be
directed forward, or sideways.
2. If intake air is drawn from a ventilated attic (Figure
25) or ventilated crawlspace (Figure 26) the exhaust
vent length must not exceed those listed in Table
8A through Table 8B. If 3” diameter pipe is used,
reduce to 2” diameter pipe at the termination point to
accommodate the debris screen.
3. Use cement to secure the intake pipe to the connector,
if desired.
If this unit is being installed in an application with
combustion air coming in from a space serviced by an
exhaust fan, power exhaust fan, or other device which
may create a negative pressure in the space, take care
when sizing the inlet air opening. The inlet air opening
must be sized to accommodate the maximum volume
of exhaust air as well as the maximum volume of
combustion air required for all gas appliances serviced
by this space.

At vent termination, care must be taken to maintain
protective coatings over building materials (prolonged
exposure to exhaust condensate can destroy protective
coatings). It is recommended that the exhaust outlet not be
located within 6 feet (1.8 m) of a condensing unit because
the condensate can damage the painted coating.
NOTE: If winter design temperature is below 32° F (0° C), it
is recommended that the exhaust piping be insulated with
1/2” (13 mm), Armaex or equivalent when run through an
unconditioned area. In extremely cold climate areas with
temperature below 20° F (6.7° C) it is recommended that
3/4” (19 mm) Armaex or equivalent be used. Insulation on
outside runs of exhaust pipe may be painted or wrapped
to protect insulation from deterioration in accordance with
the insulation manufacturers recommendation. Exhaust
pipe insulation may not be necessary in some specic
applications.
NOTE: During extremely cold temperatures, below
approximately 20° F (6° C), units with long runs of vent
pipe through unconditioned space, even when insulated,
may form ice in the exhaust termination that prevents the
unit from operating properly. Longer run times of at least 5
minutes will alleviate most icing problems. Also, a heating
cable may be installed on exhaust piping and termination
to prevent freeze-ups. Heating cable installation kits are
available, see unit specication sheets for part numbers.
Do not use screens or perforated metal in exhaust
terminations. Doing so will cause freeze-ups and may
block the terminations.
IMPORTANT
For Canadian Installations Only
In accordance to CSA International B149 installation
codes, the minimum allowed distance between the
combustion air intake inlet and the exhaust outlet of
other appliances shall not be less than 12 inches (305
mm).
IMPORTANT
General Guidelines for Vent Terminations
In Non-Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken
from indoors and the ue gases are discharged to the
outdoors. This unit is then classied as a non-direct vent,
Category IV gas furnace.
In Direct Vent applications, combustion air is taken from
outdoors and the ue gases are discharged to the outdoors.
This unit is then classied as a direct vent, Category IV gas
furnace.
In both Non-Direct Vent and Direct Vent applications, the
vent termination is limited by local building codes. In the
absence of local codes, refer to the current National Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223-1/NFPA 54 in U.S.A., and current
CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes in
Canada for details.
Position termination according to location given in Figure
27 or Figure 28. In addition, position termination so it is
free from any obstructions and 12” above the average
snow accumulation.

Details of Intake and Exhaust Piping
Terminations for Direct Vent Installations
NOTE: In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken
from outdoors and ue gases are discharged to outdoors.
NOTE: Flue gas may be slightly acidic and may adversely
aect some building materials. If any vent termination
is used and the ue gases may impinge on the building
material, a corrosion-resistant shield (minimum 24 inches
square) must be used to protect the wall surface. If the
optional tee is used, the protective shield is required.
The shield should be constructed using wood, plastic,
sheet metal or other suitable material. All seams, joints,
cracks, etc. in the aected area should be sealed using an
appropriate sealant. See Figure 31.
Intake and exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally
through an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In
attic or closet installations, vertical termination through the
roof is preferred. Figure 29 through Figure 37 show typical
terminations.
1. Exhaust and intake exits must be in same pressure
zone. Do not exit one through the roof and one on the
side. Also, do not exit the intake on one side and the
exhaust on another side of the house or structure.
2. Intake and exhaust pipes should be placed as close
together as possible at termination end (refer to
illustrations). Minimum separation is 3” (76 mm)
on roof terminations and 6” (152 mm) on side wall
terminations.
3. On roof terminations, the intake piping should terminate
straight down using two 90° elbows (see Figure 30).
4. Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. A reducer may be required on the exhaust
piping at the point where it exits the structure to
improve the velocity of exhaust away from the intake
piping. See Table 10.

*045, 070 and 090 units with the ush-mount termination must
use the 1-1/2” accelerator supplied with the kit.
Table 10. Exhaust Pipe Termination Size Reduction
5. On eld supplied terminations for side wall exit,
exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305 mm) for 2” PVC and 20 inches (508 mm) for 3”
(76 mm) PVC beyond the outside wall. Intake piping
should be as short as possible. See Figure 31.
NOTE: Care must be taken to avoid recirculation of
exhaust back into intake pipe.

6. On eld supplied terminations, a minimum distance
between the end of the exhaust pipe and the end of
the intake pipe without a termination elbow is 8” and a
minimum distance of 6” with a termination elbow. See
Figure 31.
7. If intake and exhaust piping must be run up a side
wall to position above snow accumulation or other
obstructions, piping must be supported every 24” (610
mm) as shown in Figure 31.
When exhaust and intake piping must be run up an
outside wall, the exhaust piping must be terminated
with pipe sized per Table 9. The intake piping may be
equipped with a 90° elbow turndown. Using turndown
will add 5 feet (1.5 m) to the equivalent length of the
pipe.
8. Based on the recommendation of the manufacturer, a
multiple furnace installation may use a group of up to
four terminations assembled together horizontally, as
shown in Figure 36.

As required. Flue gas may be acidic and may adversely affect some building materials. If a side wall vent
termination is used and flue gases will impinge on the building materials, a corrosion-resistant shield
(24 inches square) should be used to protect the wall surface. If optional tee is used, the protective shield
is recommended. The shield should be constructed using wood, sheet metal or other suitable material.
All seams, joints, cracks, etc. in affected area, should be sealed using an appropriate sealant.

Details of Exhaust Piping Terminations for Non-
Direct Vent Applications
Exhaust pipe may be routed either horizontally through
an outside wall or vertically through the roof. In attic or
closet installations, vertical termination through the roof
is preferred. Figure 38 through Figure 39 show typical
terminations.
1. Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. The termination pipe must be sized as listed
in Table 7A through Table 7D. The specied pipe size
ensures proper velocity required to move the exhaust
gases away from the building.
2. On eld supplied terminations for side wall exit,
exhaust piping may extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305 mm) for 2” PVC and 20” (508 mm) for 3” (76 mm)
PVC beyond the outside wall.
3. If exhaust piping must be run up a sidewall to position
above snow accumulation or other obstructions, piping
must be supported every 24” (610 mm). When exhaust
piping must be run up an outside wall, any reduction in
exhaust pipe size must be done after the nal elbow.

Condensate Piping
This unit is designed for either right or left side exit of
condensate piping in downow applications. Refer to
Figure 41 for condensate trap locations.
NOTE: If necessary the condensate trap may be installed
up to 5” away using PVC pipe from the furnace. Piping
from furnace must slope down a minimum of 1/4” per ft.
toward trap.
1. Determine which side condensate piping will exit the
unit, location of trap, eld-provided ttings and length
of PVC pipe required to reach available drain.
2. Use a large at head screw driver or a 1/2” drive
socket extension and remove plug (Figure 41) from
the cold end header box at the appropriate location
on the side of the unit. Install provided 3/4 NPT street
elbow tting into cold end header box. Use Teon tape
or appropriate pipe dope.
3. Install the cap over the clean out opening at the base
of the trap. Secure with clamp. See Figure 46.
4. Install drain trap using appropriate PVC ttings, glue
all joints. Glue the provided drain trap as shown in
Figure 46. Route the condensate line to an open drain.
Condensate line must maintain a 1/4” downward slope
from the furnace to the drain.
5. If unit will be started immediately upon completion of
installation, prime trap per procedure outlined in Unit
Start-Up section.
Do Not use copper tubing or existing copper condensate
lines for drain line.
CAUTION
Figure 41. Condensate Trap and Plug Locations
Trap

Condensate line must slope downward away from the
trap to drain. If drain level is above condensate trap,
condensate pump must be used. Condensate drain line
should be routed within the conditioned space to avoid
freezing of condensate and blockage of drain line. If
this is not possible, a heat cable kit may be used on the
condensate trap and line. Heating cable kit is available in
various lengths: 6 ft. (1.8 m) - kit no. 26K68; 24 ft. (7.3 m) -
kit no. 26K69; and 50 ft. (15.2 m) - kit no. 26K70.

Gas Piping
If a exible gas connector is required or allowed by
the authority that has jurisdiction, black iron pipe shall
be installed at the gas valve and extend outside the
furnace cabinet. The exible connector can then be
added between the black iron pipe and the gas supply
line.
CAUTION
Do Not exceed 600 in. lbs. (50 ft. lbs.) torque when
attaching the gas piping to the gas valve.
WARNING
1. Gas piping may be routed into the unit through either
the left or right hand side. Supply piping enters into the
gas valve from the side of the valve as shown in Figure
48. Move bellows grommet to side of the cabinet which
the gas line enters. Ensure opposite gas line entrance
is plugged with supplied plug.
A low inlet pressure switch in LP/propane applications
is recommended.
IMPORTANT
2. When connecting gas supply, factors such as length
of run, number of ttings and furnace rating must be
considered to avoid excessive pressure drop. Table 11
lists recommended pipe sizes for typical applications.
NOTE: Use two wrenches when connecting gas piping
to avoid transferring torque to the manifold.
3. Gas piping must not run in or through air ducts,
clothes chutes, chimneys or gas vents, dumb waiters
or elevator shafts. Center gas line through piping hole.
Gas line should not touch side of unit. See Figure 48.
4. Piping should be sloped 1/4 inch per 15 feet (6 mm per
5.6 m) upward toward the gas meter from the furnace.
The piping must be supported at proper intervals,
every 8 to 10 feet (2.44 to 3.05 m), using suitable
hangers or straps. Install a drip leg in vertical pipe runs
to serve as a trap for sediment or condensate.
5. A 1/8” N.P.T. plugged tap or pressure post is located
on the gas valve to facilitate test gauge connection.
See Figure 47.
6. In some localities, codes may require installation of a
manual main shut o󰀨 valve and union (furnished by
installer) external to the unit. Union must be of the
ground joint type.
Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping must
be resistant to the actions of liquied petroleum gases.
IMPORTANT
Leak Check
After gas piping is completed, carefully check all eld-
installed piping connections for gas leaks. Use a
commercially available leak detecting solution specically
manufactured for leak detection. Never use an open ame
to test for gas leaks.
The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply
system by closing the individual manual shut-o󰀨 valve
during any gas supply system at pressures greater than
or equal to 1/2 psig (3.48 kPa, 14 inches w.c.). This
furnace and its components are designed, manufactured
and independently certied to comply with all applicable
ANSI/CSA standards. A leak check of the furnace and its
components is not required.

When testing pressure of gas lines, gas valve must be
disconnected and isolated (see Figure 47). Gas Valves
can be damaged if subjected to pressures greater than
1/2 psig (3.48 kPa).
IMPORTANT
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death, or property damage.
Never use an open ame to test for gas leaks. Check
all connections using a commercially available soap
solution made specically for leak detection. Some
soaps used for leak detection are corrosive to certain
metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after leak test
has been completed.

Removal of the Furnace from Common Vent
In the event that an existing furnace is removed from
a venting system commonly run with separate gas
appliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to
properly vent the remaining attached appliances.
Conduct the following test while each appliance is operating
and the other appliances (which are not operating) remain
connected to the common venting system. If the venting
system has been installed improperly, you must correct the
system as indicated in the general venting requirements
section.
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each
appliance connected to the venting system being
placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide
poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance
connected to the venting system being placed into
operation, while all other appliances connected to the
venting system are not in operation.
WARNING
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting
system.
2. Inspect the venting system for proper size and
horizontal pitch. Determine that there is no blockage,
restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deciencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Close all building doors and windows and all doors
between the space in which the appliances remaining
connected to the common venting system are located
and other spaces of the building. Turn ON clothes
dryers and any appliances not connected to the
common venting system. Turn ON any exhaust fans,
such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they
will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a
summer exhaust fan. Close replace dampers.
4. Follow the lighting instructions. Turn ON the appliance
that is being inspected. Adjust the thermostat so that
the appliance operates continuously.
5. After the main burner has operated for 5 minutes, test
for leaks of ue gases at the draft hood relief opening.
Use the ame of a match or candle.
6. After determining that each appliance connected to
the common venting system is venting properly, (step
3) return all doors, windows, exhaust fans, replace
dampers, and any other gas burning appliances to
their previous mode of operation.
7. If a venting problem is found during any of the
preceding tests, the common venting system must be
modied to correct the problems.
Resize the common venting system to the minimum vent
pipe size determined by using the appropriate tables in
Appendix G. These are in the current standards of the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

Before attempting to perform any service or
maintenance, turn the electrical power to unit OFF at
disconnect switch.
CAUTION
BEFORE LIGHTING the unit, smell all around the furnace
area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the oor because
some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the oor.
The gas valve on the unit is equipped with a gas control
switch (lever). Use only your hand to move switch. Never
use tools. If the switch will not move by hand, do not try to
repair it. Force or attempted repair may result in a re or
explosion.
Placing the Furnace into Operation
This furnace is equipped with an automatic hot surface
ignition system. Do not attempt to manually light burners
on this furnace. Each time the thermostat calls for heat, the
burners will automatically light. The ignitor does not get hot
when there is no call for heat on these units.
Priming Condensate Trap
The condensate trap should be primed with water prior
to start-up to ensure proper condensate drainage. Either
pour 10 . oz. (300 ml) of water into the trap, or follow
these steps to prime the trap:
1. Follow the lighting instructions to place the unit into
operation.
2. Set the thermostat to initiate a heating demand.
3. Allow the burners to re for approximately 3 minutes.
4. Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating
demand.
5. Wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. Set the
thermostat to initiate a heating demand and again
allow the burners to re for approximately 3 minutes.
6. Adjust the thermostat to deactivate the heating demand
and wait for the combustion air inducer to stop. At this
point, the trap should be primed with su󰀩cient water to
ensure proper condensate drain operation.
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a re
or explosion may result causing property damage,
personal injury or death.

5. Is the lter dirty or plugged? Dirty or plugged lters will
cause the limit control to shut the unit o󰀨.
6. Is gas turned on at the meter?
7. Is the manual main shut–o󰀨 valve open?
8. Is the internal manual shut–o󰀨 valve open?
9. Is the unit ignition system in lockout? If the unit locks
out again, inspect the unit for blockages.
Heating Sequence of Operation
1. When thermostat calls for heat, combustion air inducer
starts.
2. Combustion air pressure switch proves blower
operation. Switch is factory set and requires no
adjustment.
3. After a 15 second pre-purge, the hot surface ignitor
energizes.
4. After a 20 second ignitor warm-up period, the gas
valve solenoid opens. A 4-second “Trial for Ignition”
period begins.
5. Gas is ignited, ame sensor proves the ame, and the
combustion process continues.
6. If ame is not detected after rst ignition trial, the
ignition control will repeat steps 3 and 4 four more
times before locking out the gas valve. The ignition
control will then automatically repeat steps 1 through
6 after 60 minutes. To interrupt the 60 minute lockout
period, move thermostat from “Heat” to “OFF” then
back to “Heat”. Heating sequence then restarts at step

incorrect, check gas orices for proper size and restriction.
Remove temporary gas meter if installed.
Supply Pressure Measurement
A threaded plug on the inlet side of the gas valve provides
access to the supply pressure tap. Remove the threaded
plug, install a eld-provided barbed tting and connect a
manometer to measure supply pressure. Replace the
threaded plug after measurements have been taken.
Manifold Pressure Measurement
1. Remove the threaded plug from the outlet side of
the gas valve and install a eld provided barbed
tting. Connect to a manometer to measure manifold
pressure.
2. Start unit and allow 5 minutes for unit to reach steady
state.
3. While waiting for the unit to stabilize, observe the
ame. Flame should be stable and should not lift from
burner. Natural gas should burn blue.
4. After allowing unit to stabilize for 5 minutes, record
manifold pressure and compare to value given in
Table 17.
NOTE: Shut unit o and remove manometer as soon as an
accurate reading has been obtained. Take care to remove
barbed tting and replace threaded plug.
Proper Combustion
Furnace should operate minimum 15 minutes with correct
manifold pressure and gas ow rate before checking
combustion. Take combustion sample beyond the ue
outlet and compare to the tables below. The maximum
carbon monoxide reading should not exceed 100 ppm.

Testing for Proper Venting and Su󰀩cient Combustion Air for Non-Direct Vent Applications
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow the steps outlined below for each
appliance connected to the venting system being
placed into operation could result in carbon monoxide
poisoning or death.
The following steps shall be followed for each appliance
connected to the venting system being placed into
operation, while all other appliances connected to the
venting system are not in operation.
WARNING
After the gas furnace has been started, the following
test should be conducted to ensure proper venting and
su󰀩cient combustion air has been provided to the unit as
well as to other gas red appliances which are separately
vented.
If this furnace replaces a Category I furnace which was
commonly vented with another gas appliance, the size
of the existing vent pipe for that gas appliance must be
checked. Without the heat of the original furnace ue
products, the existing vent pipe is probably oversized for
the single water heater or other appliance. The vent should
be checked for proper draw with the remaining appliance.
The test should be conducted while all appliances (both
in operation and those not in operation) are connected to
the venting system being tested. If the venting system has
been installed improperly, or if provisions have not been
made for su󰀩cient amounts of combustion air, corrections
must be made as outlined in the previous section.
1. Seal any unused openings in the venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size
and horizontal pitch. Determine there is no blockage
or restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deciencies
which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. To the extent that it is practical, close all building doors
and windows and all doors between the space in
which the appliances connected to the venting system
are located and other spaces of the building.
4. Close replace dampers.
5. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliances not
connected to the venting system. Turn on any exhaust
fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so
they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate
a summer exhaust fan.
6. Follow the lighting instruction to place the appliance
being inspected into operation. Adjust thermostat so
appliance will operate continuously.
7. Use the ame of a match or candle to test for spillage
of ue gases at the draft hood relief opening after 5
minutes of main burner operation.
8. If improper venting is observed during any of the
above tests, the venting system must be corrected or
su󰀩cient combustion/makeup air must be provided.
The venting system should be resized to approach the
minimum size as determined by using the appropriate
tables in appendix G in the current standards of the
National Fuel Gas Code ANSI-Z223.1/NPFA 54 in the
U.S.A., and the appropriate Natural Gas and Propane
appliances venting sizing tables in the current standard
of the CSA-B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installation
Codes in Canada.
9. After determining that each appliance remaining
connected to the common venting system properly
vents when tested as indicated in step 3, return doors,
windows, exhaust fans, replace dampers and any
other gas burning appliance to their previous condition
of use.

Other Unit Adjustments
Primary Limit
The primary limit is located on the heating compartment
vestibule panel. This limit is factory set and requires no
adjustment.
Flame Rollout Switches (Two)
These manually reset switches are located on the front of
the burner box. These limits are factory set and require no
adjustment.
Pressure Switch
The pressure switch is located in the heating compartment
on the cold end header box. This switch checks for proper
combustion air inducer operation before allowing ignition
trial. The switch is factory set and must not be adjusted.
Temperature Rise
After the furnace has been started and supply and return
air temperatures have been allowed to stabilize, check
the temperature rise. If necessary, adjust the blower
speed to maintain the temperature rise within the range
shown on the unit nameplate. See Table 21 for allowable
heating speeds. Increase the blower speed to decrease
the temperature. Decrease the blower speed to increase
the temperature rise. Failure to adjust the temperature rise
may cause erratic limit operation.
Fan Control
Ignition Control 103217-03
The fan on time of 45 seconds is not adjustable. The heat
fan o󰀨 delay (amount of time that the blower operates after
the heat demand has been satised) may be adjusted by
changing the jumper position across the ve pins on the
integrated control. The unit is shipped with a factory fan
o󰀨 delay setting of 90 seconds. The fan o󰀨 delay a󰀨ects
comfort and is adjustable to satisfy individual applications.
Adjust the fan o󰀨 delay to achieve a supply air temperature
between 90° and 110° F at the moment that the blower
is de-energized. Longer o󰀨 delay settings provide lower
return air temperatures; shorter settings provide higher
return air temperatures. See Figure 57.
Ignition Control 107163-01
The heat fan-on time of 30 seconds is not adjustable The
heat fan-o󰀨 delay (amount of time that the blower operates
after the heat demand has been satised) may be adjusted
by changing the two position dip switch on the integerated
control, to one of four slections. Blower o󰀨 delay is factory
set at 90 seconds. For other blower o󰀨 delay settings,
please refer to Table 20.

Constant Torque Motor
These units are equipped with a constant torque ECM
motor. It has a DC motor coupled to an electronic control
module,both contained in the same motor housing. The
motor is programmed to provide constant torque at each of
the ve selectable speeds. The motor has ve speed taps.
Each tap requires 24 volts to energize.
Thermostat Heat Anticipation
Set the heat anticipator setting (if adjustable) according to
the amp draw listed on the wiring diagram that is attached
to the unit.
Exhaust and Air Intake Pipe
1. Check exhaust and air intake connections for tightness
and to make sure there is no blockage.
2. Is pressure switch closed? Obstructed exhaust pipe
will cause unit to shut o󰀨 at pressure switch. Check
termination for blockages.
3. Obstructed pipe or termination may cause rollout
switches to open. Reset manual ame rollout switches
on burner box assembly if necessary.
Electrical
1. Check all wiring for loose connections.
2. Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (with
furnace operating). Correct voltage is 120 VAC ± 10%.
3. Check amp–draw on the blower motor with the blower
compartment access panel in place.

Blower Speeds
Follow the steps below to change the blower speeds.
1. Turn o󰀨 electrical power to furnace.
2. Remove blower compartment access panel.
3. Disconnect existing speed tap at control board speed
terminal.
NOTE: Termination of any unused motor leads must
be insulated.
4. Place unused blower speed tap on integrated control
“PARK” terminal or insulate.
5. Refer to blower speed selection chart on unit wiring
diagram for desired heating or cooling speed. See
Blower performance data beginning on the next page.
See Table 21 for allowable heating speeds.
6. Connect selected speed tap at control board speed
terminal.
7. Re-secure blower access panel.
8. Turn on electrical power to furnace.
9. Recheck temperature rise.
Electronic Ignition
The integrated control has an added feature of an internal
Watchguard control. The feature serves as an automatic
reset device for integrated control lockout caused by
ignition failure. This type of lockout is usually due to low
gas line pressure. After one hour of continuous thermostat
demand for heat, the Watchguard will break and remake
thermostat demand to the furnace and automatically reset
the integrated control to begin the ignition sequence.

items can be repaired or replaced.
Instruct the homeowners to pay attention to their
furnace. Situations can arise between annual furnace
inspections that may result in unsafe operation. For
instance, items innocently stored next to the furnace may
obstruct the combustion air supply. This could cause
incomplete combustion and the production of carbon
monoxide gas.
