In order to ensure proper unit operation in non-direct vent
applications, combustion and ventilation air supply must
be provided according to the current National Fuel Gas
Code or CSA-B149 standard.
Installation Locations
clearances to combustible material as listed on the unit
nameplate and in the table in Figure 12. Accessibility and
-
tion clearances.
NOTE - For installation on combustible oors, the furnace
shall not be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material other than wood ooring.
For installation in a residential garage, the furnace must
be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source
are located no less than 18 inches (457 mm) above the
physical damage by vehicles. When a furnace is installed
in a public garage, hangar, or other building that has a
hazardous atmosphere, the furnace must be installed ac-
cording to recommended good practice requirements and
current National Fuel Gas Code or CSA B149 standards.
NOTE - Furnace must be adjusted to obtain a temperature
rise within the range specied on the unit nameplate. Fail-
ure to do so may cause erratic limit operation and prema-
ture heat exchanger failure.
This EL297UHV furnace must be installed so that its elec-
trical components are protected from water. Installed in
Combination with a Cooling Coil When this furnace is
used with cooling coils (Figure 3), it shall be installed in
parallel with, or on the upstream side of, cooling coils to
avoid condensation in the heating compartment. With a
from entering the furnace. If the damper is manually op-
erated, it must be equipped to prevent operation of either
the heating or the cooling unit, unless it is in the full HEAT
or COOL setting.
When installed, this furnace must be electrically grounded
according to local codes. In addition, in the United States,
installation must conform with the current National Elec-
tric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70. The National Electric Code
(ANSI/NFPA No. 70) is available from the following ad-
dress:
National Fire Protection Association
1 Battery March Park
Quincy, MA 02269
In Canada, all electrical wiring and grounding for the unit
must be installed according to the current regulations of
the Canadian Electrical Code Part I (CSA Standard C22.1)
and/or local codes.

NOTE - This furnace is designed for a minimum contin-
uous return air temperature of 60°F (16°C) or an inter-
mittent operation down to 55°F (13°C) dry bulb for cases
where a night setback thermostat is used. Return air tem-
perature must not exceed 85°F (29°C) dry bulb.
The EL297UHV furnace may be installed in alcoves, clos-
ets, attics, basements, garages, crawl spaces and utility
homes, recreational vehicles, or outdoors.
Use of Furnace as Construction Heater
Units may be used for heating of buildings or structures
under construction, if the following conditions are met to
ensure proper operation:
DO NOT USE THE UNIT FOR CONSTRUCTION HEAT
UNLESS ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA ARE
MET:
•
must be permanently installed per these installation in-
structions.
• Furnace must be installed as a two pipe system and
one hundred percent (100%) outdoor air must be pro-
vided for combustion air requirements during construc-
tion.
• A room thermostat must control the furnace. The use
prohibited.
• The input rate and temperature rise must be set per the
furnace rating plate.
• Supply and Return air ducts must be provided and
sealed to the furnace. Return air must be terminated
outside of the space where furnace is installed.
• Return air temperature range between 60°F (16°C) and
80°F (27°C) must be maintained.
•
system and must be regularly inspected and maintained
(e.g., regular static checks and replaced at end of life)
during construction.
