1. Apply a commercially available gas leak detection liquid
(soapy water) to all gas connections. If bubbles are
presented, there is a gas leak.
2. If a gas leak is detected, tighten the loose joint, or replace
the faulty part with a replacement part recommended by
Furrion or Furrion authorized retailer.
Electrical Connection
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
● Do not “Hi-Pot” the furnace unless the electronic
ignition system (circuit board) has been disconnected.
● The Furnace must be installed so that electrical
components are protected from water and other
installation debris.
● The direct high voltage spark ignition of the furnace
generates a radio frequency that may cause
interference with other microprocessor-based
equipment. Locate any equipment at least five feet from
the Furnace location.
CAUTION
This furnace is designed for negative ground 12 volt D.C.
system only. Do not attempt to alter the furnace for a
positive ground system or connect the furnace directly
to 115 volts A.C. Damage to furnace component parts will
occur.
The furnace must be electrically grounded in accordance
with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, and/or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, Part 1, if an external
electrical source is utilized.
● Connect to a dedicated 15amp - 20amp circuit.
● Ensure all wiring gauge to the furnace is heavy enough
to maintain a minimum voltage drop and provide
enough power for start-up surge. A 12 gauge wire is
recommended.
● The power supply connection ports are located at the top
of the furnace. If any original wire that is supplied with the
furnace must be replaced, replace it with the type 105°C
resistant or its equivalent.
● The wires are color-coded, red for positive (+) and yellow
for negative (-). Always observe the polarity while wiring
the furnace to ensure correct air delivery. See the “Wiring
Diagram” section.
● If the power supplied to the furnace is from a converter,
it is recommended to wire the converter system and the
battery in parallel. Which will serve two purposes:
– Provide a constant voltage supply to the furnace.
– Filter any AC spikes or volt surges.
Thermostat Installation
The thermostat used with the furnace must have no voltage
output when there is no signal for heating or in the “OFF”
setting.
WARNING
Do not install the thermostat near the areas where there
are other heating loads, such as direct sunlight, heat-
producing appliances (television, radio, wall lamp, etc.)
or air conditioner output registers. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious injury or death.
Read before proceeding:
1. Purchase a thermostat rated for 12 VDC, 1 amp minimum.
Disconnect all electrical power to the furnace.
2. Locate a dry area with good air circulation away from
any other heat resources. When possible, install the
thermostat approximately 4½ feet above the floor on an
interior wall. When installing on an exterior wall, use a 3/4”
spacer between the thermostat and wall for proper room
air sensing.
3. Wire the thermostat to the blue wire and blue-white
striped wire (blue-white striped wire is the power to the
thermostat) on the right side of the furnace. See the
“Wiring Diagram” section.
Follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions provided
with the thermostat.
