5.2 Suspending the
Furnace
Before installing the furnace, check the supporting structure to be used to verify that it
has sufcient load-carrying capacity to support the weight of the unit.
WARNING: Unit must be supported level for proper operation.
Do not place or add additional weight to the suspended unit.
These duct furnaces have two-point suspension. See hanger centerline dimensions in
FIGURE 5, page 6.
At each suspension point, the furnace is factory-equipped with a free-turning, female,
1" (NPT), pipe hanger. Suspend by connecting the pipe hanger to a 1" threaded pipe.
See FIGURE 6 (left side).
As an alternative method, the factory-installed pipe hanger may be removed and the
heater suspended as illustrated on the right in FIGURE 6.
