8.  An unpowered, normally open (dry) set of contacts with 
a 1/4” spade terminal “HUM” are provided for humidier 
connections and may  be  connected  to 24V  or  120V. 
Any humidier rated up to one amp can be connected 
to these terminals. In 120V humidier applications, the 
neutral leg of the circuit can be connected to one of the 
provided neutral terminals. This terminal is energized 
in the heating mode. 
9.  Install the room thermostat according to the instructions 
provided  with  the  thermostat.  If  the  furnace  is  being 
matched  with  a  heat  pump,  refer  to  the  instruction 
packaged with the dual fuel thermostat.
Indoor Blower Speeds
1.  When  the  thermostat  is  set  to  “FAN  ON,”  the  indoor 
blower  will  run  continuously  on  the  eld  selectable 
fan speed (“LOW HEAT” is default) when there is no 
cooling or heating demand. See Table 16 for allowable 
continuous circulation speeds.
2.  When the A96UH2E  is  running  in  the heating mode, 
the indoor blower will run on the ‘LOW HEAT” or “HIGH 
HEAT” speed per demand.
3.  When  there  is  a  cooling  demand,  the  indoor  blower 
will run on the “LOW COOL” or “HIGH COOL” speed 
per demand.
Generator Use - Voltage Requirements
The  following  requirements  must  be  kept  in  mind  when 
specifying a generator for use with this equipment:
•  The  furnace  requires  120  volts  +  10%  (Range:  108 
volts to 132 volts).
•  The furnace operates at 60 Hz + 5% (Range: 57 Hz 
to 63 Hz).
•  The  furnace  integrated  control  requires  both  polarity 
and proper ground. Both polarity and proper grounding 
should  be  checked  before  attempting  to  operate  the 
furnace on either permanent or temporary power.
•  Generator should have a wave form distortion of less 
than 5% THD (total harmonic distortion).
Electrical Wiring
Risk  of  electrical  shock.  Disconnect  electrical  power 
at  the  circuit  breaker  or  service  panel  before  making 
electrical  connections.  Failure  to  disconnect  power 
supplies can result in property damage, personal injury, 
or death.
 WARNING
The furnace must be grounded  and  wired  in  accordance 
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the 
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition) 
and/or  CSA  C22.1  Electrical  Code  (latest  edition)  if  an 
external electrical source is utilized.
In  all  instances,  other  than  wiring  for  the  thermostat, 
the  wiring  to  be  done  and  any  replacement  of  wire  shall 
conform  with  the  temperature  limitation  for  Type  T  wire 
–63°F (35°C) rise.
Connect  a  sufciently  sized  wire  with  ground  to  the 
furnace’s line voltage connections and ground wire. Refer 
to  the  furnace  rating  plate  for  electrical  characteristics 
to  be  used  in  sizing  eld  supply  wiring  and  overcurrent 
protection.
The line voltage supply should be routed through a readily 
accessible disconnect located within sight of the furnace. A 
junction box on the furnace side panel is provided for line 
voltage connections. Refer to the furnace wiring diagram 
for specic connection information.
Proper polarity of the supply connections (“HOT” and 
“NEUTRAL”) must be observed to ensure that safety 
controls provide the protection intended.
A  connection  to  the  unit’s  ground  wire  and  actual  earth 
ground (typically a ground stake or buried steel pipe) must 
be maintained for proper operation.
Thermostat
Install  a  room  thermostat  according  to  the  instructions 
furnished  with  it.  Select  a  location  on  an  inside  wall  that 
is  not  subject  to  drafts,  direct  sunshine,  or  other  heat 
sources. The initial heat anticipator setting should be equal 
to the total current draw of the control circuit. Low voltage 
thermostat connections are to be  made  to the integrated 
ignition/blower  control  board  as  indicated  on  the  wiring 
diagram.
