WARNING
Improper installation of the furnace can result in personal
injury or death. Combustion and ue products must
never be allowed to enter the return air system or air in
the living space. Use sheet metal screws and joint tape
to seal return air system to furnace.
In platform installations with furnace return, the furnace
should be sealed airtight to the return air plenum. A door
must never be used as a portion of the return air duct
system. The base must provide a stable support and an
airtight seal to the furnace. Allow absolutely no sagging,
cracks, gaps, etc.
For no reason should return and supply air duct systems
ever be connected to or from other heating devices
such as a replace or stove, etc. Fire, explosion, carbon
monoxide poisoning, personal injury and/or property
damage could result.

‡For installations on a combustible floor, do not install the furnace
directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible materials other
than wood flooring.

Return Air Guidelines
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace installed in an upow application. If the
furnace is installed on a platform with bottom return, make
an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the
platform to ensure that the furnace operates properly and
safely. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom
panel to facilitate installation.
Markings are provided on both sides of the furnace cab-
inet for installations that require side return air. Cut the
furnace cabinet at the maximum dimensions shown on
page 2.
Refer to Engineering Handbook for additional information.
ML193UH applications which include side return air
and a condensate trap installed on the same side of
the cabinet (trap can be installed remotely within 5
ft.) require either a return air base or eld-fabricated
transition to accommodate an optional IAQ accessory
taller than 14.5”. See FIGURE 13.
