To Adjust Nozzle
Burner must be removed from
furnace for this procedure.
1−Loosen screw.
2−Slide entire nozzle/electrode assembly back and forth until
nozzle just touches gauge.

WARNING
Combustion air openings in front of the furnace must
be kept free of obstructions. Any obstruction will
cause improper burner operation and may result in
a fire hazard.
WARNING
The barometric damper shall be in the same atmo-
spheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to
the furnace. Deviation from this practice will cause
improper burner operation and may result in a fire
hazard.
CAUTION
Do not store combustible materials near the furnace
or supply air ducts. The material (such as paint, mo-
tor oil, gasoline, paint thinner, etc.) may ignite by
spontaneous combustion creating a fire hazard.
WARNING
This furnace is certified for use with type L" vent.
B" vent must not be used with oil furnaces.
NOTE − Oil burning equipment may be vented into an ap-
proved masonry chimney or type L vent. (Type L vent is
similar in construction to type B gas vent except it carries a
higher temperature rating and is constructed with an inner
liner of stainless steel rather than aluminum).
Prior to installation of unit, make a thorough inspection of the
chimney to determine whether repairs are necessary. Make
sure the chimney is properly constructed and sized accord-
ing to the requirements of the National Fire Protection Asso-
ciation. The smallest dimensions of the chimney should be
at least equal to the diameter of the furnace vent connector.
Make sure the chimney will produce a steady draft sufficient
to remove all the products of combustion from the furnace. A
draft of at least .04" w.c. (9.9 Pa) is required during burner
operation.
1 − Local building codes may have more stringent installa-
tion requirements and should be consulted before
installation of unit.
2 − The vent connector should be as short as possible to
do the job.
3 − The vent connector should not be smaller than the out-
let diameter of the vent outlet of the furnace.
4 − Pipe should be at least 24 gauge galvanized.
5 − Single wall vent pipe should not run outside or through
any unconditioned space.
6 − Chimney should extend 3 feet (0.9 m) above highest
point where the vent passes through the roof, and 2
feet (0.6 m) higher than any portion of a building within
a horizontal distance of 10 feet (3 m).
7 − The vent must not pass through a floor or ceiling.
Clearances to single wall vent pipe should be no less
than 6" (152 mm); more if local codes require it.
8 − The vent may pass through a wall where provisions
have been made for a thimble as specified in the Stan-
dards of the National Board of Fire Underwriters. See fig-
ure 5.

9 − The vent pipe should slope upward toward the chim-
ney on horizontal run at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) to the
foot (0.3 m) and should be supported by something
other than the furnace, such as isolation hangers. See
figure 6.
