NOTE: For high-altitude installations, the high-altitude conversion kit
MUST be installed at or above 5500 ft. (1676 M) above sea level. Obtain
high-altitude conversion kit from your area authorized distributor.
This furnace must:
be installed so the electrical components are protected from water.
not be installed directly on any combustible material other than
wood flooring (refer to SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS).
be located close to the chimney or vent and attached to an air
distribution system. Refer to Air Ducts section.
be provided ample space for servicing and cleaning. Always
comply with minimum fire protection clearances shown on the
furnace clearance to combustible construction label.
The following types of furnace installations may require OUTDOOR
AIR for combustion due to chemical exposures:
Commercial buildings
Buildings with indoor pools
Laundry rooms
Hobby or craft rooms, and
Chemical storage areas
If air is exposed to the following substances, it should not be used for
combustion air, and outdoor air may be required for combustion:
Permanent wave solutions
Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
Chlorine based 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
All fuel-burning equipment must be supplied with air for fuel
combustion. Sufficient air must be provided to avoid negative pressure
in the equipment room or space. A positive seal must be made between
the furnace cabinet and the return-air duct to prevent pulling air from the
burner area and from draft safeguard opening.
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/ANSI Z223.1, Air
for Combustion and Ventilation and applicable provisions of the
local building codes.
The requirements for combustion and ventilation air depend upon
whether or not the furnace is located in a space having a volume of at
least 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh input rating for all gas appliances
installed in the space.
Spaces having less than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh require the
OUTDOOR COMBUSTION AIR METHOD.
Spaces having at least 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh may use the
INDOOR COMBUSTION AIR, STANDARD or KNOWN AIR
INFILTRATION METHOD.
Minimum dimensions of 3-in. (76 mm).
NOTE: Use any of the following combinations of openings:

Fig. 7 – Air for Combustion, Ventilation, and Dilution for Outdoors
Outdoor Combustion Air Method
1. Provide the space with sufficient air for proper combustion,
ventilation, and dilution of flue gases using permanent horizontal or
vertical duct(s) or opening(s) directly communicating with the
outdoors or spaces that freely communicate with the outdoors.
2. Fig. 7 illustrates how to provide TWO OUTDOOR OPENINGS,
one inlet and one outlet combustion and ventilation air opening, to
the outdoors.
a. One opening MUST commence within 12 in. (300 mm) of the
ceiling and the second opening MUST commence within 12 in.
(300 mm) of the floor.
CAUTION
!
FURNACE CORROSION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in furnace damage.
Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen compounds,
which include fluoride, chloride, bromide, and iodide. These elements
can corrode heat exchangers and shorten furnace life. Air contaminants
are found in aerosol sprays, detergents, bleaches, cleaning solvents,
salts, air fresheners, and other household products.

THE BLOWER IS
LOCATED BELOW THE
BURNER SECTION, AND
CONDITIONED AIR IS
DISCHARGED UPWARD.
THE BLOWER IS
LOCATED ABOVE THE
BURNER SECTION, AND
CONDITIONED AIR IS
DISCHARGED DOWNWARD
THE BLOWER IS
LOCATED TO THE LEFT
OF THE BURNER SECTION,
AND CONDITIONED AIR IS

WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
The operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation fans, clothes dryers,
attic exhaust fans or fireplaces could create a NEGATIVE PRESSURE
CONDITION at the furnace. Make-up air MUST be provided for the
ventilation devices, in addition to that required by the furnace. Refer to
the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazard warning in the venting section
of these instructions to determine if an adequate amount of make-up air
is available.
