* Capacity of pipe in cu ft of gas per hr for gas pressure of 0.5 psig or Protection Association NFPA 54. less. Pressure drop of 0.5--in. wc (based on a 0.60 specific
gravity gas). Refer to Table, National Fire
This length includes an ordinary number of fittings.
5. Install an accessible, external, manual main shutoff valve
in gas supply pipe within 6 ft of heating section.
6. Install ground--joint union close to heating section
between unit manual shutoff and external manual main
shut--off valve.
7. Pressure--test all gas piping in accordance with local and
national plumbing and gas codes before connecting piping
to unit.
NOTE: Pressure test the gas supply system after the gas supply
piping is connected to the gas valve. The supply piping must be
disconnected from the gas valve during the testing of the piping
systems when test pressure is in excess of 0.5 psig. Pressure test
the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less than 0.5
psig. The unit heating section must be isolated from the gas
piping system by closing the external main manual shutoff valve
and slightly opening the ground--joint union.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury,
death and/or property damage.
--Connect gas pipe to unit using a backup wrench to avoid
damaging gas controls.
--Never purge a gas line into a combustion chamber. Never test
for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially available
soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks to
check all connections.
--Use proper length of pipe to avoid stress on gas control
manifold.
--If a flexible connector is required or allowed by authority
having jurisdiction, black iron pipe shall be installed at furnace
gasvalve andextend aminimum of2 in.outside furnace casing.
--If codes allow a flexible connector, always use a new
connector. do not use a connector which has previously
serviced another gas appliance.
!
WARNING
8. Check for gas leaks at the field--installed and
factoryinstalled gas lines after all piping connections have
been completed. Use soap--and--water solution (or method
specified by local codes and/or regulations).
Step 9 INSTALL DUCT CONNECTIONS
The unit has duct flanges on the supply-- and return--air openings
on the side and bottom of the unit. For downshot applications, the
ductwork connects to the roof curb (See Fig. 2 and 3 for
connection sizes and locations).

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Before installing or servicing system, always turn off main
power to system. There may be more than one disconnect
switch.
!
WARNING
1. Open all electrical disconnects before starting any service
work.
2. Remove horizontal (metal) duct covers to access vertical
(downflow) discharge duct knockouts in unit base.
3. Use a screwdriver and hammer to remove the panels in the
bottom of the unit base (See Fig. 9 & 10).
