INSPECTION
As soon as a unit is received, it should be inspected for possible dam-
age during transit. If damage is evident, the extent of the damage
should be noted on the carrier’s freight bill. A separate request for
inspection by the carrier’s agent should be made in writing. Also, before
installation the unit should be checked for screws or bolts, which may
have loosened in transit. There are no shipping or spacer brackets
which need to be removed.
The furnace area must not be used as a broom closet or for any
other storage purposes, as a fire hazard may be created. Never
store items such as the following on, near or in contact with the fur-
nace.
1. Spray or aerosol cans, rags, brooms, dust mops, vacuum
cleaners or other cleaning tools.
2. Soap powders, bleaches, waxes or other cleaning com-
pounds; plastic items or containers; gasoline, kerosene, ciga-
rette lighter fluid, dry cleaning fluids or other volatile fluid.
3. Paint thinners and other painting compounds.
FURNACE LOCATION AND CLEARANCES
The furnace shall be located using the following guidelines:
1. Where a minimum amount of air intake/vent piping and elbows will
be required.
4. Paper bags, boxes or other paper products
2. As centralized with the air distribution as possible.
Never operate the furnace with the blower door removed. To
do so could result in serious personal injury and/or equipment
damage.
3. Where adequate combustion air will be available (particularly
when the appliance is not using outdoor combustion air).
4. Where it will not interfere with proper air circulation in the confined
space.
FOR FURNACES INSTALLED IN THE COMMON-
WEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS ONLY
5. Where the outdoor combustion air/vent terminal will not be blocked
or restricted. Refer to “COMBUSTION AIR / VENT CLEAR-
ANCES” located in SECTION VII of these instructions. These min-
imum clearances must be maintained in the installation.
For all side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment installed in
every dwelling, building or structure used in whole or in part for resi-
dential purposes, including those owned or operated by the Com-
monwealth and where the side wall exhaust vent termination is less
than seven (7) feet above finished grade in the area of the venting,
including but not limited to decks and porches, the following require-
ments shall be satisfied:
6. Where the unit will be installed in a level position with no more
than 1/4” (0.6 cm) slope side-to-side and front-to-back to provide
proper condensate drainage.
Installation in freezing temperatures:
1. Furnace shall be installed in an area where ventilation facilities
provide for safe limits of ambient temperature under normal oper-
ating conditions. Ambient temperatures must not fall below 32°F
(0°C) unless the condensate system is protected from freezing.
1. INSTALLATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. At
the time of installation of the side wall horizontal vented gas
fueled equipment, the installing plumber or gasfitter shall
observe that a hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an
alarm and battery back-up is installed on the floor level where
the gas equipment is to be installed. In addition, the installing
plumber or gasfitter shall observe that a battery operated or
hard wired carbon monoxide detector with an alarm is installed
on each additional level of the dwelling, building or structure
served by the side wall horizontal vented gas fueled equipment.
It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure the
services of qualified licensed professionals for the installation of
hard wired carbon monoxide detectors
2. Do not allow return air temperature to be below 55º F (13° C) for
extended periods. To do so may cause condensation to occur in
the main heat exchanger, leading to premature heat exchanger
failure.
Improper installation in an ambient below 32ºF (0.0° C) could create
a hazard, resulting in damage, injury or death.
a. In the event that the side wall horizontally vented gas
fueled equipment is installed in a crawl space or an attic,
the hard wired carbon monoxide detector with alarm and
battery back-up may be installed on the next adjacent floor
level.
3. If this furnace is installed in any area where the ambient tempera-
ture may drop below 32° F (0° C), a UL listed self-regulated heat
tape must be installed on any condensate drain lines. It is required
that self regulating heat tape rated at 3 watts per foot be used.
This must be installed around the condensate drain lines in the
unconditioned space. Always install the heat tape per the manu-
facturer's instructions. Cover the self-regulating heat tape with
fiberglass, Armaflex or other heat resistant insulating material.
b. In the event that the requirements of this subdivision can
not be met at the time of completion of installation, the
owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with
the above requirements; provided, however, that during
said thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon mon-
oxide detector with an alarm shall be installed.
4. If this unit is installed in an unconditioned space and an extended
power failure occurs, there will be potential damage to the conden-
sate trap, drain lines and internal unit components. Following a
power failure situation, do not operate the unit until inspection and
repairs are performed.
2. APPROVED CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS. Each car-
bon monoxide detector as required in accordance with the
above provisions shall comply with NFPA 720 and be ANSI/UL
2034 listed and IAS certified.
Clearances for access:
Ample clearances should be provided to permit easy access to the unit.
The following minimum clearances are recommended:
3. SIGNAGE. A metal or plastic identification plate shall be perma-
nently mounted to the exterior of the building at a minimum
height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line with the
exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally vented gas fueled
heating appliance or equipment. The sign shall read, in print
size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size, "GAS VENT
DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL OBSTRUC-
TIONS".
1. Twenty-four (24) inches (61 cm) between the front of the furnace
and an adjacent wall or another appliance, when access is
required for servicing and cleaning.
2. Eighteen (18) inches (46 cm) at the side where access is required
for passage to the front when servicing or for inspection or
replacement of flue/vent connections.
4. INSPECTION. The state or local gas inspector of the side wall
horizontally vented gas fueled equipment shall not approve the
installation unless, upon inspection, the inspector observes car-
bon monoxide detectors and signage installed in accordance
with the provisions of 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1 through 4.

When the furnace is used in conjunction with a cooling coil, the coil
must be installed parallel with, or in the supply air side of the furnace to
avoid condensation in the primary heat exchanger. When a parallel flow
arrangement is used, dampers or other means used to control airflow
must be adequate to prevent chilled air from entering the furnace. If
manually operated, the damper must be equipped with means to pre-
vent the furnace or the air conditioner from operating unless the damper
is in full heat or cool position.
Downflow/Horizontal furnaces for installation on combustible floor-
ing only when installed on the accessory combustible floor base on
wood flooring only and shall not be installed directly on carpeting,
tile or other combustible material.
Check the rating plate and power supply to be sure that the electri-
cal characteristics match. All models use nominal 115 VAC, 1
Phase 60Hz power supply.
Furnace shall be installed so the electrical components are pro-
tected from water.
The duct system must be properly sized to obtain the correct airflow
for the furnace size that is being installed.
Refer to Table 7 and the furnace rating plate for the correct rise
range and static pressures
If the ducts are undersized, the result will be high duct static pres-
sures and/or high temperature rises which can result in a heat
exchanger OVERHEATING CONDITION. This condition can result
in premature heat exchanger failure, which can result in personal
injury, property damage, or death.
Installation in a residential garage:
1. A gas-fired furnace for installation in a residential garage must be
installed so the burner(s) and the ignition source are located not
less than 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor, and the furnace must
be located or protected to avoid physical damage by vehicles.

SECTION II: DUCTWORK
DUCTWORK GENERAL INFORMATION
When replacing an existing furnace, if the existing plenum is not the
same size as the new furnace then the existing plenum must be
removed and a new plenum installed that is the proper size for the new
furnace.
The duct system’s design and installation must:
1. Handle an air volume appropriate for the served space and within
the operating parameters of the furnace specifications.
Ductwork Installation
2. Be installed in accordance with standards of NFPA (National Fire
Protection Association) as outlined in NFPA pamphlets 90A and
90B (latest editions) or applicable national, provincial, or state, and
local fire and safety codes.
NOTE: When attaching duct flange, do not shoot the screw down into
the casing. Use the formed flange intended for duct flange attachment.
A proper Heat Loss/Gain Calculation should be done on all installations
for proper application of equipment. From this the ductwork sizing can
be calculated, ACCA Manual J and D and industry standards are help-
ful.
3. Create a closed duct system. For residential and Non-HUD Modu-
lar Home installations, when a furnace is installed so that the sup-
ply ducts carry air circulated by the furnace to areas outside the
space containing the furnace, the return air shall also be handled
by a duct(s) sealed to the furnace casing and terminating outside
the space containing the furnace.
The duct system is a very important part of the installation. If the duct
system is improperly sized the furnace will not operate properly.
The ducts attached to the furnace plenum, should be of sufficient size
so that the furnace plenum should be if sufficient size so that the fur-
nace operates at the specified external static pressure and within the air
temperature rise specified on the nameplate.
4. Complete a path for heated or cooled air to circulate through the
air conditioning and heating equipment and to and from the condi-
tioned space.
Table 2 is a guide for determining whether the rectangular duct system
that the furnace is being connected to be of sufficient size for proper fur-
nace operation.
The cooling coil must be installed in the supply air duct, down-
stream of the furnace. Cooled air may not be passed over the heat
exchanger.

Use the Example below to help you in calculating the duct area to deter-
mine whether the ducts have sufficient area so that the furnace oper-
ates at the specified external static pressure and within the air
temperature rise specified on the nameplate.
2. The square inch area for 7 inch round ducts, 38.4 square inch x 2
= 76.8 square inches,
3. Then take the 192 square inch from the rectangular duct and add it
to the 76.8 square inch of round duct. The total square inch of duct
attached to the furnace supply plenum is 268.8 square inches.
This exceeds the recommended 216 square inch of duct.
The following are general duct sizing guidelines that may not serve to
requirements of every application.
In this example, the duct system attached to the plenum has a sufficient
area so that the furnace operates at the specified external static pres-
sure and within the air temperature rise specified on the nameplate.
Providing the return duct is properly sized as well.
Example: The furnace input is 80,000 BTUH, 1,200 CFM blower
requirement. The recommended duct area is 216 sq.in, there are two 8
x 12 rectangular ducts attached to the plenum and there are two 7 inch
round ducts attached to the furnace.
1. Take 8 x 12, which equals 96 square inch x 2 = 192 square inches
then go to round duct size located in Table 3.

TABLES 2 AND 3 are to be used as a guide only to help the installer
determine if the duct sizes are large enough to obtain the proper air flow
(CFM) through the furnace. TABLES 2 and 3 ARE NOT to be used to
design ductwork for the building where the furnace is being installed.
There are several variables associated with proper duct sizing that are
not included in the tables. To properly design the ductwork for the build-
ing, Refer to the ASHRAE Fundamentals Handbook, Chapter on
“DUCT DESIGN” or a company that specializes in Residential and Mod-
ular Home duct designs.
The supply air temperature MUST NEVER exceed the Maximum
Supply Air Temperature, specified on the nameplate.
Operating the furnace above the maximum supply air temperature
will cause the heat exchanger to overheat, causing premature heat
exchanger failure. Improper duct sizing, dirty air filters, incorrect
manifold pressure, incorrect gas orifice and/or a faulty limit switch
can cause the furnace to operate above the maximum supply air
temperature. Refer to sections II, III, IX & X for additional informa-
tion on correcting the problem.
IMPORTANT: If the supply air duct is being connected to the furnace
without the use of an accessory duct connector, then a transition duct
must be installed with flanges or tabs that are securely attach and
sealed to the supply air duct and to the base of the furnace. The transi-
tion duct must have insulation between the transition duct and any com-
bustible material.

Downflow Air Conditioning Coil Cabinet
Horizontal Models
The Cooling Coil Cabinet can be used in place of the combustible floor
base for downflow installations on combustible materials. The furnace
should be installed with the cooling coil cabinet specifically intended for
downflow applications. The cooling coil cabinet must be secured to the
floor. A supply air duct plenum is installed through the opening pro-
vided. The supply air duct is then secured to the duct system with
screws and sealed to prevent leaks. If a matching cooling coil is used, it
may be placed directly on the furnace outlet using the accessory transi-
tion kit and sealed to prevent leakage. The transition kit must be used to
secure the cooling coil cabinet to the furnace casing when installed in a
downflow configuration.
IMPORTANT: This furnace may be installed in a horizontal position on
either side as shown above. It must not be installed on its back.
Horizontal Installations With a Cooling Coil Cabinet
The furnace should be installed with the cooling coil cabinet specifically
intended for horizontal applications. If a matching cooling coil is used, it
may be placed directly on the supply air side of the furnace and sealed
to prevent leakage. A warm air duct plenum with 1" (2.54 cm) is
installed through the opening provided. The supply air duct system is
connected to the warm air plenum and sealed to prevent leaks.
These kits are required in downflow application when using G*F* series
coils. These kits are not required with MC/FC series coils, but please
ensurethat the coil and furnace are sucured and that there are noair
leaks.
This transition kit may be installed in one of two ways. The transition kit
may be installed and secured to either the furnace or the cooling coil
cabinet by the use of screws and then it must be sealed to prevent
leaks.
IMPORTANT: The furnace, the cooling coil cabinet, and all duct work
MUST BE SEALED as needed to prevent leaks, AND SECURED. Refer
to the assembly drawing in Figure 2.
Attach the supply plenum to the air conditioning coil cabinet outlet duct
flanges through the use of S cleat material when a metal plenum is
used. The use of an approved flexible duct connector is recommended
on all installations. The connection to the furnace, air conditioning coil
cabinet and the supply plenum should be sealed to prevent air leakage.
•
If the transition kit has been installed on the cooling coil cabinet it
must be secured to the cooling coil cabinet with screws. The sup-
ply air side of the furnace is then placed on the cooling coil cabi-
net and then sealed for leaks.
•
If the transition kit has been installed on the supply air side of the
furnace it must be secured to the furnace with screws. The fur-
nace and the transition kit are then placed on the cooling coil cab-
inet and then sealed for leaks.
The sheet metal plenum should be crosshatched to eliminate any pop-
ping of the sheet metal when the indoor fan is energized. The minimum
plenum height is 12" (30.5 cm). If the plenum is shorter than 12" (30.5
cm) the turbulent air flow may cause the limit controls not to operate as
designed, or the limit controls may not operate at all. Also the plastic
drain pan in the under the air conditioning coil can overheat and melt
Refer to the installation instructions supplied with the air conditioning
coil for additional information.
NOTE: Refer to instructions packed out with coil cabinet, for securing
and sealing to the furnace.
IMPORTANT: The furnace, transition kit, and the cooling coil cabinet
MUST BE SEALED as needed to prevent leaks, AND SECURED. Refer
to the assembly drawing in Figure 2.
Horizontal Installations Without a Cooling Coil Cabinet
IMPORTANT: On all installations without a coil, a removable access
panel is recommended in the outlet duct such that smoke or reflected
light would be observable inside the casing to indicate the presence of
leaks in the heat exchanger. This access cover shall be attached in
such a manner as to prevent leaks.
When installing this appliance, the furnace must be installed so as to
create a closed duct system, the supply duct system must be con-
nected to the furnace outlet and the supply duct system must terminate
outside the space containing the furnace. When replacing an existing
furnace, if the existing plenum is not the same size as the new furnace
then the existing plenum must be removed and a new plenum installed
that is the proper size for the new furnace.
AIRFLOW
Attach the supply plenum to the furnace outlet duct flanges through the
use of S cleat material when a metal plenum is used. The use of an
approved flexible duct connector is recommended on all installations.
This connection should be sealed to prevent air leakage. The sheet
metal should be crosshatched to eliminate any popping of the sheet
metal when the indoor fan is energized. On all installations without a
coil, a removable access panel is recommended in the outlet duct such
that smoke or reflected light would be observable inside the casing to
indicate the presence of leaks in the heat exchanger. This access cover
shall be attached in such a manner as to prevent leaks.

The duct system is a very important part of the installation. If the duct
system is improperly sized the furnace will not operate properly. The
ducts attached to the furnace must be of sufficient size so that the fur-
nace operates at the specified external static pressure and within the air
temperature rise specified on the nameplate.
NOTES:
1. Air velocity through throwaway type filters may not exceed 300 feet
per minute. All velocities over this require the use of high velocity fil-
ters.
Attic installations must meet all minimum clearances to combustibles
and have floor support with required service accessibility.

Downflow Filters
HORIZONTAL APPLICATION
Downflow furnaces typically are installed with the filters located above
the furnace, extending into the return air plenum or duct. Any branch
duct (rectangular or round duct) attached to the plenum must attach to
the vertical plenum above the filter height.
Horizontal Filters
All filters and mounting provision must be field supplied. Filters(s) may
be located in the duct system external to the furnace or in a return filter
grille(s). Filters(s) may be located in the duct system using an external
duct filter box attached to the furnace plenum. Any branch duct (rectan-
gular or round duct) attached to the plenum must attach to the vertical
plenum above the filter height. The use of straps and / or supports is
required to support the weight of the external filter box.
Filters(s) may be located in the duct system external to the furnace
using an external duct filter box attached to the furnace plenum or at the
end of the duct in a return filter grille(s). The use of straps and / or sup-
ports is required to support the weight of the external filter box.
If the accessory electronic air cleaner is installed, be sure the air
cleaner is designed to accommodate the furnace CFM (cm/m) and the
air cleaner is installed so it does not obstruct the return airflow. Consid-
eration should be given when locating the air cleaner for maintenance
and temperatures should the indoor fan motor fail to operate. The use
of straps and / or supports is required to support the weight of the elec-
tronic air cleaner. It is recommended that the air cleaner not be located
within 12 inches (30.5 cm) from the top of the return air opening on the
furnace. Refer to the instructions supplied with the electronic air
cleaner.
An accessory filter rack is available.

An overpressure protection device, such as a pressure regulator,
must be installed in the gas piping system upstream of the furnace
and must act to limit the downstream pressure to the gas valve so it
does not exceed 0.5 PSI {14" w.c. (3.48 kPa)}. Pressures exceed-
ing 0.5 PSI {14” w.c. (3.48 kPa)} at the gas valve will cause damage
to the gas valve, resulting in a fire or explosion or cause damage to
the furnace or some of its components that will result in property
damage and loss of life.
FIGURE 9: Horizontal Gas Piping
IMPORTANT: An accessible manual shutoff valve must be installed
upstream of the furnace gas controls and within 6 feet (1.8 m) of the fur-
nace.
The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual external manual shutoff valve during any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

GAS ORIFICE CONVERSION FOR PROPANE (LP)
This furnace is constructed at the factory for natural gas-fired operation,
but may be converted to operate on propane (LP) gas by using a fac-
tory-supplied LP conversion kit. Follow the instructions supplied with
the LP kit. Refer to Table 6 or the instructions in the propane (LP) con-
version kit for the proper gas orifice size.
GAS PIPING INSTALLATION
Properly sized wrought iron, approved flexible or steel pipe must be
used when making gas connections to the unit. If local codes allow the
use of a flexible gas appliance connection, always use a new listed con-
nector. Do not use a connector that has previously serviced another gas
appliance.
HIGH ALTITUDE GAS ORIFICE CONVERSION
This furnace is constructed at the factory for natural gas-fired operation
at 0 – 8,000 feet (0-m – 2,438 m) above sea level.
Some utility companies or local codes require pipe sizes larger than the
minimum sizes listed in these instructions and in the codes. The furnace
rating plate and the instructions in this section specify the type of gas
approved for this furnace - only use those approved gases. The instal-
lation of a drip leg and ground union is required. Refer to Figure 8.
The manifold pressure must be changed in order to manitain proper
and safe operation when the furnace is installed in a location where the
altitude is greater than 8,000 feet (2,438 m) above sea level. Refer to to
Table 6 for proper manifold pressure settings.
HIGH ALTITUDE PRESSURE SWITCH CONVERSION
For installation where the altitude is less than 8,000 feet (2,438 m), it is
not required that the pressure switch be changed. For altitudes above
8,000 feet (2,438 m), see Field Installed Accessories - High Altitude
pressure Switch.

PROPANE AND HIGH ALTITUDE CONVERSION KITS
It is very important to choose the correct kit and/or gas orifices for the altitude and the type of gas for which the furnace is being installed.
Only use natural gas in furnaces designed for natural gas. Only use propane (LP) gas for furnaces that have been properly converted to use pro-
pane (LP) gas. Do not use this furnace with butane gas.
Incorrect gas orifices or a furnace that has been improperly converted will create an extremely dangerous condition resulting in premature heat
exchanger failure, excessive sooting, high levels of carbon monoxide, personal injury, property damage, a fire hazard and/or death.
High altitude and propane (LP) conversions are required in order for the appliance to satisfactory meet the application.
An authorized distributor or dealer must make all gas conversions.
In Canada, a certified conversion station or other qualified agency, using factory specified and/or approved parts, must perform the conversion.
The installer must take every precaution to insure that the furnace has been converted to the proper gas orifice size when the furnace is installed.
Do not attempt to drill out any orifices to obtain the proper orifice size. Drilling out a gas orifice will cause misalignment of the burner flames,
causing premature heat exchanger burnout, high levels of carbon monoxide, excessive sooting, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage
and/or death.

Install the field-supplied thermostat by following the instructions that
come with the thermostat. With the thermostat set in the OFF position
and the main electrical source disconnected, connect the thermostat
wiring from the wiring connections on the thermostat to the terminal
board on the ignition module, as shown in Figure 11. Electronic thermo-
stats may require the common wire to be connected as shown with the
dashed line in Figure 11. Apply strain relief to thermostat wires passing
through cabinet. If air conditioning equipment is installed, use thermo-
stat wiring to connect the Y and C terminals on the furnace control
board to the yellow and brown wires on the condensing unit (unit out-
side). Refer to Figure 11.
3. The furnace's control system requires correct polarity of the power
supply and a proper ground connection. If the power supply polar-
ity is reversed, the control board will flash 9 times. The furnace will
not operate until the polarity is corrected. Refer to “Furnace Diag-
nostics” section of the “User’s Information, Maintenance, & Ser-
vice Manual” provided with this furnace.
IMPORTANT: Set the heat anticipator in the room thermostat to 0.45
amps. Setting it lower will cause short cycles. Setting it higher will cause
the room temperature to exceed the set points.Some electronic thermo-
stats do not have adjustable heat anticipators. They may have other
type cycle rate adjustments. Follow the thermostat manufacturer's
instructions.
The 24-volt, 40 VA transformer is sized for the furnace components
only, and should not be connected to power auxiliary devices such as

and the gas burner on the second furnace operates on W2, then the
use of an air-mixing device in the plenum to mix the air from both fur-
naces is strongly recommended. The mixing device must be installed
before any ducts that supply air to occupied spaces. Twinning causes
both indoor fans to operate simultaneously. If a mixing device is not
used, any ducts that are connected down stream from the furnace that
operates on W2, will be supplying cold air in the Heating mode to the

SECTION VI: TWINNING AND STAGING
NOTE: You can twin two furnaces that have the same integrated control
module. Check the part number on the integrated control module. You
cannot twin two furnaces that have different integrated control module
part numbers. If the part numbers of the two integrated control modules
are different they may not communicate with each other so they will not
work in a twinning application.
FIGURE 13: Typical Twinned Furnace Application
IMPORTANT: When two furnaces are twinned, typical system total air-
flow will be approximately 85% of additive individual furnaces, i.e., two
2000 CFM (56.6 m3/m) units will yield a total 3400 CFM (96.3 m3/m).
In applications where more heating capacity or more airflow capacity is
needed than what one furnace can deliver, twinning can be used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem. When two furnaces are installed
using the same duct system, it is very important that the two furnace cir-
culating air blowers operate in unison. If one blower starts before the
second blower, the duct system will become pressurized and the blower
on the second furnace will turn backwards causing the second furnace
to overheat, resulting in damage to the furnace. Twinning is used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem, using one duct system, one
room thermostat and causing both furnaces to turn on and off simulta-
neously.
GAS PIPING
Furnace gas supplies must be provided as specified with these instruc-
tions. Since the furnaces are side by side, with no space between, gas
supplies must enter on the right and left respectively. All gas piping
must be in accordance with the national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1,
latest edition, and/or all local code or utility requirements.
TWINNING
In applications where more heating capacity or more airflow capacity is
needed than what one furnace can deliver, twinning can be used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem, using one duct system and one
room thermostat. When one duct system is used for two furnaces, it is
necessary that the two blowers operate in unison. The twinning function
of the board in this furnace ensures that both blowers turn on and off
simultaneously, and operate on the same blower speed.
Before installing the relay and wiring, disconnect electrical power to
both furnaces. Failure to cut power could result in electrical shock
or equipment damage.
Single-Wire Twinning
The control in the furnace has the single-wire twinning feature. With this
feature, a single wire is connected between the TWIN terminal on one
furnace board to the TWIN terminal on the second furnace board. The
board then communicates the blower status from one furnace to the
other along this wire. This communication makes the second furnace
blower come on at the same time, and on the same speed, as the first
furnace blower.
The relay must not be installed in any location where it could be
exposed to water. If the relay has been exposed to water in any
way, it must not be used.

Single-Wire Twinning Operation
Heating - On a call for heat (W signal) from the wall thermostat, both
furnaces will start the ignition sequence and the burners on both fur-
naces will light. About thirty seconds after the burners light, the blowers
on both furnaces will come on in heating speed. When the thermostat is
satisfied, the burners will all shut off and, after the selected blower off
delay time, both blowers will shut off at the same time. The twinning
control ensures that both blowers come on and shut off at the same
time.
Single-Wire Staging Operation
Heating - On a call for first-stage heat (W1 signal) from the wall thermo-
stat, Furnace #1 will start the ignition sequence and the burners will
light. About thirty seconds after the burners light, the blowers on both
furnaces will come on in heating speed. When the thermostat is satis-
fied, the burners will shut off and, after the selected blower off delay
time, both blowers will shut off at the same time. On a call for second
stage of heat, the burners of Furnace #2 will also light and both blowers
will run. The twinning control ensures that both blowers come on and
shut off at the same time.
Cooling - On a call for cooling (Y signal) from the wall thermostat, both
furnace blowers will come on at the same time in cooling speed. When
the thermostat is satisfied, both blowers will stay on for 60 seconds,
then will shut off at the same time.
Continuous Fan - On a thermostat call for continuous fan (G signal),
both furnace blowers will come on at the same time in cooling speed
and will stay on until the G signal is removed.
Cooling - On a call for cooling (Y signal) from the wall thermostat, both

In applications where more heating capacity or more airflow capacity is
needed than what one furnace can deliver, twinning can be used to
make two furnaces operate in tandem, using one duct system and one
room thermostat. This control can also be used along with a two-stage
wall thermostat to stage two twinned furnaces, making them operate
like a single two-stage furnace. This allows only one furnace to supply
heat during times when the heat output from one furnace is sufficient to
satisfy the demand. When one duct system is used for two furnaces, it
is necessary that the two blowers operate in unison. The twinning func-
tion of this board ensures that both blowers turn on and off simulta-
neously, and operate on the same blower speed. Even when only one
furnace is supplying heat, both furnace blowers must run.

COMBUSTION AIR AND VENT SAFETY
This Category IV, dual certified direct vent furnace is designed for resi-
dential application. It may be installed without modification to the con-
densate system in a basement, garage, equipment room, alcove, attic
or any other indoor location provided the space temperature is 32 °F
(0°C) or higher and where all required clearance to combustibles and
other restrictions are met. The combustion air and the venting system
must be installed in accordance with Section 5.3, Air for Combustion
and Ventilation, of the National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1/NFPA 54 (latest
edition), or Sections 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 of CSA B149.1, National Gas and
Propane Codes (latest edition) or applicable provisions of the local
building code and these instructions.
Single-Wire Staging
The single-wire twinning feature of this board can also be used for stag-
ing of two furnaces. With this feature, a single wire is connected
between the TWIN terminal on one furnace board to the TWIN terminal
on the second furnace board. The board then communicates the blower
status from one furnace to the other along this wire. This communica-
tion makes the second furnace blower come on at the same time, and
on the same speed, as the first furnace blower.
IMPORTANT: The “VENT SYSTEM” must be installed as specified in
these instructions for Residential and Non HUD Modular Homes. The
sealed combustion air / vent system is the only configuration that can
be installed in a Non HUD Modular Home.

COMBUSTION AIR/VENT PIPE SIZING
The size of pipe required will be determined by the furnace model, the
total length of pipe required and the number of elbows required.
2" 90º sweep elbow
2" 45º sweep elbow
2" 90º standard elbow
2" 45º standard elbow

2" corrugated connector
3" corrugated connector
Table 8 lists the maximum equivalent length of pipe allowed for each
model of furnace. The equivalent length of elbows is shown in Table 9.
The equivalent length of the vent system is the total length of straight
pipe PLUS the equivalent length of all of the elbows.
The following rules must also be followed:
1. Long radius (sweep) elbows are recommended. Standard elbows
may be used, but since they have a longer equivalent length, they
will reduce the total length of pipe that will be allowed. Short radius
(plumbing vent) elbows are not allowed. The standard dimensions
of the acceptable elbows are shown below.
Example:
An 80,000 BTUH furnace requires 32 feet of pipe and four 90º elbows.
Using 2" pipe and standard elbows, the total equivalent length will be:
2. The maximum equivalent length listed in Table 8 is for the vent pip-
ing and the air intake piping separately. For example, if the table
allows 65 equivalent feet for a particular model, then the vent can
have 65 equivalent feet of pipe, AND the combustion air intake can
have another 65 equivalent feet of pipe.
32 feet of 2" pipe =
4 - 90º standard 2" elbows = (4x10) =
Total =
32 equivalent feet
40 equivalent feet
72 equivalent feet of 2" pipe
3. Three vent terminal elbows (two for the vent and one for the com-
bustion air intake) are already accounted for and need not be
included in the equivalent length calculation.
This exceeds the 65 foot maximum equivalent length of 2" pipe allowed
for that model and is thus not acceptable.
4. All combustion air and vent pipe must conform to American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) and American Society for Test-
ing and Materials (ASTM) standards D1785 (Schedule 40 PVC),
D2665 (PVC-DWV), F891 (PVC-DWV Cellular Core), D2261
(ABS-DWV) or F628 (Schedule 40 ABS). Pipe cement and primer
must conform to ASTM Standard D2546 (PVC) or D2235 (ABS). If
ABS pipe is to be used, any joint where ABS pipe is joined to PVC
pipe must be glued with cement that is approved for use with
BOTH materials. Metallic materials must not be used for venting or
air intake.
By using sweep elbows, the total equivalent length will be:
32 feet of 2" pipe =
4 - 90º standard 2" elbows = (4x5) =
Total =
32 equivalent feet
20 equivalent feet
52 equivalent feet of 2" pipe
This is less than the 65 foot maximum equivalent length of 2" pipe
allowed for that model and is thus acceptable.
Alternatively, using 3" pipe and standard elbows, the total equivalent
length will be:
5. If a flexible connector is used in the vent system, it must be made
of a material that is resistant to acidic exposure and to at least
225° F temperature. Flexible connectors are also allowed in the
combustion air pipe.
32 feet of 3" pipe =
4 - 90º standard 2" elbows = (4x5) =
Total =
32 equivalent feet
40 equivalent feet
72 equivalent feet of 3" pipe
6. All models are supplied with 2" vent connections. When the pipe
must be increased to 3" diameter, the transition from 2" to 3" must
be done as close to the furnace as possible. For upflow models,
the transition from 2" to 3" should be done immediately above the
furnace. For downflow or horizontal models, the transition from 2"
to 3" pipe should be done immediately after the drain tee or drain
elbow.
This is less than the 90 foot maximum equivalent length of 3" pipe
allowed for that model and is thus acceptable.
7. In Canada, vents shall be certified to ULC S636, Standard for Type
BH Gas Venting Systems. IPEX System 636 PVC is certified to
this standard.
8. In Canada, the first three feet (900 mm) of the vent must be readily
accessible for inspection.

IMPORTANT: Consideration must be given for degradation of building materials by flue gases. Sidewall termination may require sealing or shielding of building surfaces
with a corrosion resistant material to protect against combustion product corrosion. Consideration must be given to wind direction in order to prevent flue products and/or
condensate from being blown against the building surfaces. If a metal shield is used it must be a stainless steel material at a minimum dimension of 20 inches. It is rec-
ommended that a retaining type collar be used that is attached to the building surface to prevent movement of the vent pipe.
Responsibility for the provision of proper adequate venting and air supply for application shall rest with the installer.
Vent shall extend high enough above building, or a neighboring obstruction, so that wind from any direction will not create a positive pressure in the vicinity of the vent.

7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 of CAN/CGA B149.1 or .2 Installation Code - latest edi-
tions.
VERTICAL VENT APPLICATIONS AND
TERMINATION
Roof mounted vertical terminals may be field fabricated. Standard PVC/
SRD fittings may be used. If installing a vertical venting system through
any unconditioned space such as an attic or crawl space it must be
insulated.
This furnace is certified to be installed with one of three possible com-
bustion air intake configurations.
1. OUTDOOR COMBUSTION AIR: This is a sealed combustion air
configuration where the combustion air is supplied through a PVC
or ABS pipe that is connected to the PVC coupling attached to the
burner box and is terminated in the same atmospheric zone as the
vent. This type of installation is approved on all models. Refer to
Figures 25 & 27.
1. Observe all clearances listed in vent clearances in these instruc-
tions.
2. Termination should be positioned where vent vapors are not objec-
tionable.
3. Termination should be located where it will not be affected by wind
gusts, light snow, or allow recirculation of flue gases.
2. AMBIENT COMBUSTION AIR: Combustion air is supplied from
the area surrounding the furnace through the combustion air pipe
in the furnace casing. The combustion air and the vent pipes are
not terminated in the same atmospheric zone. Refer to Figures 19
& 26 for vent terminations. Refer to “AMBIENT COMBUSTION
AIR SUPPLY” and “VENT AND SUPPLY OUTSIDE AIR SAFETY
CHECK PROCEDURE” for proper installation.
4. Termination should be located where it cannot be damaged,
plugged or restricted by tree limbs, leaves and branches.
5. Horizontal portions of the vent system must slope upwards and be
supported to prevent sagging. The vent system may be supported
by the use of clamps or hangers secured to a permanent part of
the structure every 4 ft. (1.22 m).
3. VENTILATED COMBUSTION AIR: Combustion air is supplied
through a PVC or ABS pipe that is connected to the PVC coupling
attached to the burner box and is terminated in a ventilated attic or
crawl space. The combustion air and the vent pipes are not termi-
nated in the same atmospheric zone. Refer to Figure 28 for crawl
space and attic termination. Only the combustion air intake may
terminate in the attic. The vent must terminate outside.
VENTING MULTIPLE UNITS
Only the sealed combustion system can be used for installations requir-
ing more than one furnace in a structure. A separate sealed combustion
air pipe and a separate vent pipe must be installed for each furnace. Do
not connect more than one furnace to a combustion air pipe or a vent
pipe. The combustion air and vent termination must be located as
shown in Figures 23 or 24.
Outdoor Combustion Air
Combustion Air Intake/Vent Connections
This installation requires combustion air to be brought in from outdoors.
This requires a properly sized pipe (shown in Figures 31, 33, or 35) that
will bring air in from the outdoors to the furnace combustion air intake
collar on the burner box. The second pipe (shown in Figures 31, 33 or
35) is the furnace vent pipe.

The combustion air intake pipe should be located either through the
wall (horizontal or side vent) or through the roof (vertical vent). Care
should be taken to locate side vented systems where trees or shrubs
will not block or restrict supply air from entering the terminal.
Combustion Air Source From Outdoors
The blocking effects of louvers, grilles and screens must be given con-
sideration in calculating free area. If the free area of a specific louver or
grille is not known, refer to Table 12, to estimate free area.
Also, the terminal assembly should be located as far as possible from a
swimming pool or a location where swimming pool chemicals might be
stored. Be sure the terminal assembly follows the outdoor clearances
listed in Section #1 “COMBUSTION AIR QUALITY (LIST OF CONTAM-
INANTS).”

Ambient Combustion Air Supply
This type installation will draw the air required for combustion from
within the space surrounding the appliance and from areas or rooms
adjacent to the space surrounding the appliance. This may be from
within the space in a non-confined location or it may be brought into the
furnace area from outdoors through permanent openings or ducts. It is
not piped directly into the burner box. A single, properly sized pipe from
the furnace vent connector to the outdoors must be provided. For down-
flow models combustion air is brought into the furnace through the unit
top panel opening. Do not install a pipe into the combustion air pipe at
the top of the furnace. Refer to Figures 19 & 26.
Dampers, Louvers and Grilles (Canada Only)
1. The free area of a supply air opening shall be calculated by sub-
tracting the blockage area of all fixed louvers grilles or screens
from the gross area of the opening.
2. Apertures in a fixed louver, a grilles, or screen shall have no
dimension smaller than 0.25” (0.64 cm).
3. A manually operated damper or manually adjustable louvers are
not permitted for use.
4. A automatically operated damper or automatically adjustable lou-
vers shall be interlocked so that the main burner cannot operate
unless either the damper or the louver is in the fully open position.
TABLE 13: Free Area - Outdoor Air
Minimum Free Area Required for Each Opening
This type of installation requires that the supply air to the appli-
ance(s) be of a sufficient amount to support all of the appliance(s)
in the area. Operation of a mechanical exhaust, such as an exhaust
fan, kitchen ventilation system, clothes dryer or fireplace may cre-
ate conditions requiring special attention to avoid unsatisfactory
operation of gas appliances. A venting problem or a lack of supply
air will result in a hazardous condition, which can cause the appli-
ance to soot and generate dangerous levels of CARBON MONOX-
IDE, which can lead to serious injury, property damage and / or
death.

NOTE: An unsafe condition exists when the CO reading exceeds 40
ppm and the draft reading is not in excess of - 0.1 in. W.C. (-25 kPa)
with all of the appliance(s) operating at the same time.
Vent and Supply (Outside) Air Safety Check Procedure
Follow the procedure in ANSI Z223.1 National Fuel Gas Code. Refer to
the section on the “Recommended Procedure for Safety Inspection of
an Existing Appliance” or in Canada B149.1-00 Natural Gas and Pro-
pane Installation Code section on “Venting Systems and Air Supply for
Appliances” and all local codes. In addition to the procedure specified in
ANSI Z223.1, it is recommended that you follow the venting safety pro-
cedure below. This procedure is designed to detect an inadequate ven-
tilation system that can cause the appliances in the area to operate
improperly causing unsafe levels of Carbon Monoxide or an unsafe
condition to occur.
8. Any corrections to the venting system and / or to the supply (out-
side) air system must be in accordance with the National Fuel Gas
Code Z223.1 or CAN/CGA B149.1-00 Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code (latest editions). If the vent system must be
resized, follow the appropriate tables in Appendix G of the above
codes or for this appliance, refer to Table 8 of these instructions.
Ventilated Combustion Air
The ventilated attic space or a crawl space from which the combustion
air is taken must comply with the requirements specified in “COMBUS-
TION AIR SOURCE FROM OUTDOORS” in this instruction or in Sec-
tion 5.3, Air for Combustion and Ventilation of the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition). This type installation requires two
properly sized pipes. One brings combustion air from a properly venti-
lated attic space or crawl space and a second pipe that extends from
the furnace vent connection (top right of unit) to the exterior of the build-
ing. Refer to Table 8 for intake pipe sizing, allowable length and elbow
usage. Follow all notes, procedures and required materials in the
SEALED COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY section in these instructions
when installing the combustion air pipe from the unit and into a venti-
lated attic space or crawl space. DO NOT terminate vent pipe in an Attic
or Crawl Space.
1. Inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch.
Determine that there is no blockage, restriction, leakage, corrosion
or other deficiencies, which could cause an unsafe condition
2. Close all building doors and windows and all doors.
3. Turn on clothes dryers and TURN ON any exhaust fans, such as
range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they shall operate at
maximum speed. Open the fireplace dampers. Do not operate a
summer exhaust fan.
4. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being
inspected in operation. Adjust thermostat so the appliance shall
operate continuously.
5. Test each appliance (such as a water heater) equipped with a draft
hood for spillage (down-draft or no draft) at the draft hood relief
opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Appliances that
do not have draft hoods need to be checked at the vent pipe as
close to the appliance as possible. Use a combustion analyzer to
check the CO2 and CO levels of each appliance. Use a draft
gauge to check for a downdraft or inadequate draft condition.
Ventilated Combustion Air Termination
Refer to Figure 28 for required attic termination for the combustion air
intake pipe. For attic termination, use two 90 elbows with the open end
in a downward position. Be sure to maintain 12” (30.5 cm) clearance
above any insulation, flooring or other material.
6. After it has been determined that each appliance properly vents
when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust
fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas burning appliance to
their normal condition.
A crawl space combustion air installation consists of a straight pipe from
the PVC coupling on the burner box that extends into the crawl space
and terminates with a 1/4” (0.63 cm) mesh screen and no elbows.
7. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, a
problem exists with either the venting system or the appliance
does not have enough combustion air (Supply Air from outside) to
complete combustion. This condition must be corrected before the
appliance can function safely.

CONDENSATE DRAIN TERMINATION
DO NOT terminate condensate drain in a chimney, or where the drain
line may freeze. The line must terminate at an inside drain to prevent
freezing of the condensate and possible property damage. DO NOT
trap the drain line at any other location than at the condensate drain
trap supplied with the furnace. A condensate sump pump MUST be
used if required by local codes, or if no indoor floor drain is available.
The condensate sump pump must be approved for use with acidic con-
densate.

LIMIT CONTROLS
There is high temperature limit control located on the furnace vestibule
panel near the gas valve. This is an automatic reset control that pro-
vides over-temperature protection due to reduced airflow. This may be
caused by
CONDENSATE DRAIN PRE-START UP PROCEDURE
The condensate trap must be filled with water before putting the furnace
into operation. Perform the following procedures only after the conden-
sate trap has been properly piped to a drain connection using the pro-
cedure in this instruction. The recommended procedure is as follows:
1. Disconnect the condensate drain hose from the induced draft
blower discharge.
2. Elevate this hose and fill with water using a funnel.
3. Replace the condensate drain hose and clamps. If this procedure
is not followed, the unit may not properly drain on initial start up.
1. Dirty filter,
2. If the indoor fan motor should fail, or
3. Too many supply or return registers closed or blocked off.
SECTION IX: SAFETY CONTROLS
CONTROL CIRCUIT FUSE
A 3-amp fuse is provided on the control circuit board to protect the 24-
volt transformer from overload caused by control circuit wiring errors.
This is an ATO 3, automotive type fuse and is located on the control
board.
The control module will lockout if the limit trips 5 consecutive times
within a single call for heat. Control will reset and try ignition again after
1 hour.
SECTION X: START-UP AND
ADJUSTMENTS
The initial start-up of the furnace requires the following additional
procedures:
BLOWER DOOR SAFETY SWITCH
This unit is equipped with an electrical interlock switch mounted in the
blower compartment. This switch interrupts all power at the unit when
the panel covering the blower compartment is removed.
IMPORTANT: All electrical connections made in the field and in the fac-
tory should be checked for proper tightness.
When the gas supply is initially connected to the furnace, the gas piping
may be full of air. In order to purge this air, it is recommended that the
ground union be loosened until the odor of gas is detected. When gas is
detected, immediately retighten the union and check for leaks. Allow
five minutes for any gas to dissipate before continuing with the start-up
procedure.
Electrical supply to this unit is dependent upon the panel that covers the
blower compartment being in place and properly positioned.
Main power to the unit must still be interrupted at the main power
disconnect switch before any service or repair work is to be done to
the unit. Do not rely upon the interlock switch as a main power dis-
connect.
Blower and burner must never be operated without the blower
panel in place.
Perform the following procedures only after the condensate trap
has been properly piped to a drain connection using the procedure
in this instruction. Be sure proper ventilation is available to dilute
and carry away any vented gas.
ROLLOUT SWITCH CONTROLS
These controls are mounted on the burner box assembly. If the temper-
ature in the burner box exceeds its set point, the ignition control and the
gas valve are de-energized. The operation of this control indicates a
malfunction in the combustion air blower, heat exchanger or a blocked
vent pipe connection. Corrective action is required. These are manual
reset controls that must be reset before operation can continue.
TOOLS AND INFORMATION THAT WILL BE
REQUIRED IN ORDER TO PROPERLY PERFORM THE
FURNACE STARTUP PROCEDURE.
1. Call the local gas supplier to obtain heating value of the natural
gas. If you cannot obtain the heating valve of the gas from the gas
supplier, you may use a default value of 1030 BTU/SCF (38.4 MJ /
m³).
PRESSURE SWITCHES
2. You will need a thermometer or portable digital thermometer to
read the supply and return air temperatures.
This furnace is supplied with a pressure switch which monitors the flow
through the combustion air/vent piping system. This switch de-ener-
gizes the ignition control module and the gas valve if any of the follow-
ing conditions are present. Refer to Figure 37 for tubing connections.
3. You will need a U-tube manometer or digital equipment that has
the ability to read pressures between 0 – 15” in.w.c (0 - 3.73 kPa)
in order to measure the gas line and the manifold pressures.
1. Blockage of combustion air piping or terminal.
2. Blockage of vent piping or terminal.
3. Failure of combustion air blower motor.
4. Blockage of condensate drain piping.
4. You will need a 3/32” Allen wrench for the pressure port plugs in
the gas valve.
5. You will need 2 pieces of 1/8” (0.3 cm) ID flexible tubing that is 12”
(30 cm) in length, 2 – pieces of 1/8” (0.3 cm) tubing that are 4”
(10.1 cm) in length, a 1/8” (0.3 cm) tee and a 1/8” (0.3 cm) adapter
to connect the U-tube manometer or the digital pressure measur-
ing equipment to the gas valve pressure ports.

CALCULATING THE FURNACE INPUT
(NATURAL GAS)
These items are required in order to properly perform the required star-
tup procedure.
NOTE: Burner orifices are sized to provide proper input rate using natu-
ral gas with a heating value of 1030 BTU/Ft3 (38.4 MJ/m3). If the heat-
ing value of your gas is significantly different, it may be necessary to
replace the orifices.
IGNITION SYSTEM SEQUENCE
1. Turn the gas supply ON at external valve and main gas valve.
2. Set the thermostat above room temperature to call for heat.
3. System start-up will occur as follows:
NOTE: Front door of burner box must be secured when checking gas
input.
a. The induced draft blower motor will start and come up to
speed. Shortly after inducer start-up, the hot surface igniter
will glow for about 17 seconds.
1. Turn off all other gas appliances connected to the gas meter.
2. At the gas meter, measure the time (with a stop watch) it takes to
use 2 cubic ft. (0.0566 m3.) of gas.
b. After this warm up, the ignition module will energize (open)
the main gas valve.
3. Calculate the furnace input by using one of the following equa-
tions.
c. After flame is established, the supply air blower will start in
about 30 seconds.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could result in serious
injury, death or property damage.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a commercially
available soap solution made specifically for the detection of leaks
to check all connections. A fire or explosion may result causing
property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

In the USA use the following formula to calculate the furnace input.
For natural gas multiply the heat content of the gas BTU/SCF or Default 1030 BTU/SCF (38.4 MJ/m3), times 2 cubic ft. (0.056 m) of gas measured at
the gas meter, times a barometric pressure and temperature correction factor of 0.960; times 3600, then divided by the time (In seconds) it took to
measure 2 cubic ft. (0.056 m) of gas from the gas meter.
For propane (LP) gas multiply the heat content of the gas BTU/SCF or Default 2500 BTU/SCF (93.15 MJ/m3), times 1 cubic ft. (0.028 m) of gas mea-
sured at the gas meter, times a barometric pressure and temperature correction factor of 0.960; times 3600, then divided by the time (In seconds) it

The manifold pressure must be checked with the screw-off cap for
the gas valve pressure regulator in place. If not, the manifold pres-
sure setting could result in an over-fire condition. A high manifold
pressure will cause an over-fire condition, which could cause pre-
mature heat exchanger failure. If the manifold pressure is too low,
sooting and eventual clogging of the heat exchanger could occur.
Be sure that gas valve regulator cap is in place and burner box to
gas valve pressure reference hose is connected.

ADJUSTMENT OF TEMPERATURE RISE
All direct-drive blowers have multi-speed motors. The blower motor
speed taps are located in the control box in the blower compartment.
Refer to Figure 40, and the unit-wiring label to change the blower
speed. To use the same speed tap for heating and cooling, the heat ter-
minal and cool terminal must be connected using a jumper wire and
connected to the desired motor lead. Place all unused motor leads on
Park terminals. Two are provided.
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return
air and the supply (heated) air from the furnace, must be within the
range shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application
limitations shown in Table 7 “ELECTRICAL AND PERFORMANCE
DATA”.
The supply air temperature cannot exceed the “Maximum Supply
Air Temperature” specified in these instructions and on the fur-
nace rating plate. Under NO circumstances can the furnace be
allowed to operate above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature.
Operating the furnace above the Maximum Supply Air Temperature
will cause premature heat exchanger failure, high levels of Carbon
Monoxide, a fire hazard, personal injury, property damage, and/or
death.
Do not energize more than one motor speed at a time or damage to
the motor will result.
ADJUSTMENT OF FAN CONTROL SETTINGS
This furnace is equipped with a time-on/time-off heating fan control. The
fan on delay is fixed at 30 seconds. The fan off delay has 4 settings (60,
90, 120 and 180 seconds). The fan off delay is factory set to 120 sec-
onds. The fan-off setting must be long enough to adequately cool the
furnace, but not so long that cold air is blown into the heated space. The
fan-off timing may be adjusted by positioning the jumper on two of the
four pins as shown in Figure 40.
The temperature rise, or temperature difference between the return air
and the heated supply air from the furnace, must be within the range
shown on the furnace rating plate and within the application limitations
as shown in Table 7.
After about 20 minutes of operation, determine the furnace temperature
rise. Take readings of both the return air and the heated air in the ducts,
about six feet (1.83 m) from the furnace where they will not be affected
by radiant heat. Increase the blower speed to decrease the temperature
rise; decrease the blower speed to increase the rise.
The blower speed connections shown in Figure 40 are typical. How-
ever, these connections may vary from model to model and may be
changed as needed to give proper heating and cooling airflow.

9 RED FLASHES: Indicates reversed line voltage polarity or grounding
problem. Both heating and cooling operations will be affected. Check
polarity at furnace and branch. Check furnace grounding. Check that
flame probe is not shorted to chassis.
FURNACE CONTROL DIAGNOSTICS
The furnace has built-in, self-diagnostic capability. If a system problem
occurs, a blinking LED shows a fault code. The LED can flash red,
green or amber to indicate various conditions. It is located behind a
clear view port in the blower compartment door.
10 RED FLASHES: Gas valve energized with no call for heat. Check
gas valve and gas valve wiring.
The control continuously monitors its own operation and the operation
of the system. If a failure occurs, the LED will indicate the failure code. If
the failure is internal to the control, the light will stay on continuously. In
this case, the entire control should be replaced, as the control is not
field repairable.
11 RED FLASHES: This indicates that a primary or auxiliary limit switch
has opened its normally-closed contacts and has remained open for
more than five minutes. This condition is usually caused by a failed
blower motor or blower wheel.
12 RED FLASHES: This code indicates an open igniter circuit, which
could be caused by a disconnected or loose wire or by a cracked or bro-
ken igniter.
Flash sequence codes 1 through 10 are as follows: LED will turn “on”
for 1/4 second and “off” for 1/4 second. This pattern will be repeated the
number of times equal to the code. For example, six “on” flashes equals
a number 6 fault code. All flash code sequences are broken by a 2 sec-
ond “off” period.
STEADY ON RED: Control failure. Replace control board.
60-MINUTE AUTOMATIC RESET FROM LOCKOUT: This control
includes a “watchdog” type circuit that will reset from a lockout condition
after 60 minutes. Operational faults 6,7,8 will be reset. This provides
protection to an unoccupied structure if a temporary condition exists
causing a furnace malfunction. An example would be a low incoming
gas supply pressure preventing unit operation. When the gas pressure
is restored, at some point the “watchdog” would restart the unit and pro-
vide heat for the house.
SLOW GREEN FLASH: Normal operation.
SLOW AMBER FLASH: Normal operation with call for heat.
RAPID RED FLASH: Twinning error, incorrect 24V phasing. Check
twinning wiring.
RAPID AMBER FLASH: Flame sense current is below 1.5 microamps.
Check and clean flame sensor. Check for proper gas flow.
4 AMBER FLASHES: The control board is recieving a “Y” signal from
the thermostat without a “G” signal, indicating improper thermostat wir-
ing.
NOTE: If a flame is detected the control flashes the LED for 1/8 of a
second and then enters a flame stabilization period.
IGNITION CONTROL
Normal flame sense current is approximately
3.7 microamps DC (µa)
Low flame signal warning starts at 1.5 microamps.
Low flame signal control lockout point is
0.1 microamps DC (µa)
1 RED FLASH: This indicates that flame was sensed when there was
not a call for heat. With this fault code the control will turn on both the
inducer motor and supply air blower. A gas valve that leaks through or
is slow closing would typically cause this fault.
2 RED FLASHES: This indicates that the normally open pressure
switch contacts are stuck in the closed position. The control confirms
these contacts are open at the beginning of each heat cycle. This would
indicate a faulty pressure switch or miswiring.
DIAGNOSTIC FAULT CODE STORAGE AND
RETRIEVAL
3 RED FLASHES: This indicates the normally open pressure switch
contact did not close after the inducer was energized. This could be
caused by a number of problems: faulty inducer, blocked vent pipe, bro-
ken pressure switch hose or faulty pressure switch.
The control in this furnace is equipped with memory that will store up to
five error codes to allow a service technician to diagnose problems
more easily. This memory will be retained even if power to the furnace
is lost. This feature should only be used by a qualified service tech-
nician.
4 RED FLASHES: This indicates that a primary or auxiliary limit switch
has opened its normally closed contacts. With this fault code the control
will operate the supply air blower and inducer. This condition may be
caused by: dirty filter, improperly sized duct system, incorrect blower
speed setting, incorrect firing rate or faulty blower motor.
The control stores up to five separate error codes. If more than five
error codes have occurred since the last reset, only the five most recent
will be retained. The furnace control board has a button, labeled "LAST
ERROR" that is used to retrieve error codes. This function will only work
if there are no active thermostat signals. So any call for heating, cooling
or continuous fan must be terminated before attempting to retrieve error
codes.
5 RED FLASHES: This fault is indicated if the normally closed contacts
in the rollout switch opens. The rollout control is manually reset. If it has
opened, check for proper combustion air, proper inducer operation, and
primary heat exchanger failure or burner problem. Be sure to reset the
switch after correcting the failure condition.
To retrieve the error codes, push the LAST ERROR button. The LED on
the control will then flash the error codes that are in memory, starting
with the most recent. There will be a two-second pause between each
flash code. After the error codes have all been displayed, the LED will
resume the normal slow green flash after a five second pause. To
repeat the series of error codes, push the button again.
6 RED FLASHES: This indicates that after the unit was operating, the
pressure switch opened 4 times during the call for heat. If the main
blower is in a “Delay on” mode it will complete it, and any subsequent
delay off period. The furnace will lock out for one hour and then restart.
If there are no error codes in memory, the LED will flash two green
flashes. To clear the memory, push the LAST ERROR button and hold it
for more than five seconds. The LED will flash three green flashes when
the memory has been cleared, then will resume the normal slow green
flash after a five-second pause.
7 RED FLASHES: This fault code indicates that the flame could not be
established. This no-light condition occurred 3 times (2 retries) during
the call for heat before locking out. Low gas pressure, faulty gas valve,
faulty hot surface ignitor or burner problem may cause this. The furnace
will lock out for one hour and then restart.
8 RED FLASHES: This fault is indicated if the flame is lost 5 times (4
recycles) during the heating cycle. This could be caused by low gas
pressure or faulty gas valve. The furnace will lock out for one hour and
then restart.

Example: For a 120,000 Btuh furnace operating on high speed blower,
it is found that total system static is 0.58" w.c. To determine the system
airflow, complete the following steps:
APPLYING FILTER PRESSURE DROP TO
DETERMINE SYSTEM AIRFLOW
To determine the approximate airflow of the unit with a filter in place, fol-
low the steps below:
1. Obtain the airflow values at 0.50" & 0.60" ESP.
Airflow @ 0.50": 2152 CFM
Airflow @ 0.60": 2042 CFM
1. Select the filter type.
2. Determine the External System Static Pressure (ESP) without the
filter.
2. Subtract the airflow @ 0.50" from the airflow @ 0.60" to obtain air-
flow difference.
3. Select a filter pressure drop from the table based upon the number
of return air openings or return air opening size and add to the
ESP from Step 2 to determine the total system static.
2042 - 2152 = -110 CFM
3. Subtract the total system static from 0.50" and divide this differ-
ence by the difference in ESP values in the table, 0.60" - 0.50", to
obtain a percentage.
4. If total system static matches a ESP value in the airflow table (i.e.
0.20, 0.60, etc,) the system airflow corresponds to the intersection
of the ESP column and Model/Blower Speed row.
(0.58 - 0.50) / (0.60 - 0.50) = 0.8
5. If the total system static falls between ESP values in the table (i.e.
0.58, 0.75, etc.), the static pressure may be rounded to the nearest
value in the table determining the airflow using Step 4 or calculate
the airflow by using the following example.
4. Multiply percentage by airflow difference to obtain airflow reduc-
tion.
(0.8) x (-110) = -88
5. Subract airflow reduction value to airflow @ 0.50" to obtain actual
airflow @ 0.58" ESP.
2152 - 88 = 2064
