INSTALLATION
I. LEVELING LEGS (IF DESIRED)
When furnace is used in upflow position with side inlet(s), leveling
legs may be desired. (See Fig. 12.) Install field-supplied,
corrosion-resistant 5/16-in. machine bolts and nuts.
NOTE: The maximum length of bolt should not exceed 1-1/2 in.
1. Position furnace on its back. Locate and drill a 5/16-in.
diameter hole in each bottom corner of furnace. (See Fig.
12.) Holes in bottom closure panel may be used as guide
locations.
2. For each hole, install nut on bolt and then install bolt and
nut in hole. (Install flat washer if desired.)
3. Install another nut on other side of furnace base. (Install flat
washer if desired.)
4. Adjust outside nut to provide desired height, and tighten
inside nut to secure arrangement.
NOTE: Bottom closure must be used when leveling legs are used.
See Bottom Closure Panel section.
II. INSTALLATION ON A CONCRETE SLAB
1. Construct hole in floor per dimensions in Fig. 13.
2. Place plenum and furnace as shown in Fig. 14.
III. INSTALLATION ON A COMBUSTIBLE FLOOR
(DOWNFLOW APPLICATIONS)
1. Cut and frame hole in floor per dimensions in Installation
Instructions packaged with downflow subbase kit.
NOTE: Remove furnace perforated, discharge duct flanges when
they interfere with mating flanges on coil on downflow subbase.
To remove furnace perforated, discharge duct flange, use wide
duct pliers or duct flange tool to bend flange back and forth until
it breaks off. Be careful of sharp edges. (See Fig. 15.)
WARNING: Do not bend duct flanges inward as shown
in Fig. 15. This will affect airflow across heat exchangers
and may cause limited cycling or premature heat ex-
changer failure. Remove duct flange completely or bend
it inward a minimum of 210° as shown in Fig. 15.
2. When complete, downflow subbase, plenum, and furnace
(or coil casing when used) should be installed as shown in
Fig. 16.

NOTE: For proper furnace operation, install furnace so that it is
level or pitched forward within 1/2 in. to ensure proper condensate
drainage from secondary heat exchangers.
