To maximize heat exchanger life, the combustion air

must be free of chemicals that can form corrosive acidic

compounds in the combustion gases. The recommended

source of combustion air is to use outdoor air. However,

the use of indoor air in most applications is acceptable

except as listed:

• Ifthefurnaceisinstalledasasinglepipeinstallation

in a conﬁned space, it is required that the necessary

combustion air come from the outdoors by way of attic,

crawl space, air duct, or direct opening. For Installations

in conﬁned spaces, see page 8 for combustion air

requirements.

• Installationsintheselocationsmayrequireoutdoorair

for combustion, due to chemical exposures:

Commercial buildings

Buildings with indoor pools

Furnaces installed in laundry rooms

Furnaces installed in hobby or craft rooms

Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas

• Exposuretothefollowingsubstancesinthecombustion

air supply may require outdoor air for combustion:

Permanent wave solutions

Chlorinated waxes and cleaners

Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals

Water softening chemicals

De-icing salts or chemicals

Carbon Tetrachloride

Halogen type refrigerants

Cleaning solvents (perchloroethylene)

Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.

Hydrochloric Acid

Cements and glues

Antistatic fabric softeners

Masonry acid washing materials

Heating Load

This furnace should be sized to provide the design heating

load requirement. Heating load estimates can be made

using approved methods available from Air Conditioning

Contractors of America (Manual J); American Society of

Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers;

or other approved engineering methods. 

The ductwork should be appropriately sized to the capacity

of the furnace to ensure its proper airﬂow rating. For

installations above 2,000 ft., the furnace should have a

sea level input rating large enough that it will meet the

heating load after deration for altitude.

This furnace is Design Certiﬁed in the U.S. and Canada

by CSA International for the minimum clearances to

combustible materials. NOTE: The furnace is listed for

installation on combustible or non-combustible ﬂooring.

However, wood is the only combustible ﬂooring allowed

for installation. Downﬂow models must use the appropriate

subase kit when installing over a wood ﬂoor. To obtain

model number and speciﬁc clearance information, refer

to the furnace rating plate, located inside of the furnace

cabinet.

Access for positioning and servicing the unit must be

considered when locating unit. The need to provide

clearance for access to panels or doors may require

clearance distances over and above the requirements.

Operating gas furnaces in construction environments can

cause a variety of problems with the furnace. Proper use

of commercial portable space heating equipment during

construction is recommended. This gas furnace may be

used during construction if it is not in violation of any

applicable codes and the following criteria are met:

• The installation mustmeetall applicablecodes.The

furnace must be permanently installed according to

the instructions supplied with the furnace including

electrical supply, gas supply, duct work and venting. The

furnace must be controlled by a thermostat properly

installed according to the instructions supplied with the

furnace and thermostat. The installation must include

a properly installed ﬁlter in the return air system with

no by-pass air. The ﬁlter must be inspected frequently

and replaced when necessary.

• Combustion air must be supplied from outside the

structure and located such that dust and gases

from construction activity are not introduced into the

combustion system.

• Provisions must be made to insure that condensate

does not freeze in the furnace or condensate drain

lines during operation and during idle times; for

example, overnight if turned off.

• Before occupying the structure: The lter must be

replaced or cleaned, the duct work must be inspected

and cleaned of any construction debris, and the

furnace must be cleaned and/or repaired if found to

be dirty, damaged, or malfunctioning in any way by

a qualiﬁed HVAC technician. The furnace shall be

inspected and approved by applicable local authority

even if this requires redundant inspections.

• Serialnumbersforfurnacesusedduringconstruction

must be submitted in writing (fax and email also

acceptable). This information will be used to track the

long-term affects of the use during construction on

furnaces. Proof of this submittal shall be available for

the ﬁnal inspection of the furnace prior to occupancy.

• This furnace is designed to operate with return air

temperatures in ranges normally found in occupied

residences, including setbacks. Minimum continuous

return temperature must not be below 60° F (15° C).

Occasionally a temporary return temperature of 55° F

(12° C) is acceptable. However, operation with a return

temperature below 55° F (12° C) is not allowed.

This condensing furnace is certiﬁed for installation either as

a Direct Vent (2-pipe) or Conventional (1-pipe) appliance.

Direct Vent appliances draw combustion air from the

outdoors and vent combustion products back outside.

Installation with air taken from around the furnace is often

referred to as Conventional installation - i.e. only the vent

(exhaust) pipe is provided.

Another important consideration when selecting one or

two pipe installation is the quality of the Indoor air which

can sometimes be contaminated with various household

chemicals . These chemicals can cause severe corrosion

in the furnace combustion system. A 2-pipe installation

has the additional advantage that it isolates the system

from the effects of negative pressure in the house.

Direct Vent Furnaces

Direct Vent (2-pipe) furnaces draw combustion air directly

from the outdoors and then vent the combustion products

back outside, isolating the entire system from the indoor

space. It is important to make sure that the whole system

is sealed and clearances to combustibles are maintained

regardless of the installation being in a conﬁned or

unconﬁned space.

    

Spaces

A conﬁned space is an area with volume less than 50

cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh of the combined input rates of

all appliances drawing combustion air from that space.

Furnace closets, small equipment rooms and garages are

conﬁned spaces. Furnaces installed in a conﬁned space

which supply heated air to areas outside the space must

draw return air from outside the space and must have the

return air ducts tightly sealed to the furnace. Ducts must

have cross - sectional area at least as large as the free area

of their respective openings to the furnace space. Attics

or crawl spaces must connect freely with the outdoors if

they are the source of air for combustion and ventilation.

The required sizing of these openings is determined by

whether inside or outside air is used to support combustion,

the method by which the air is brought to the space, and

by the total input rate of all appliances in the space. In

all cases, the minimum dimension of any combustion air

opening is 3 inches.

Air From Inside

If combustion air is taken from the heated space, the two

openings must each have a free area of at least one square

inch per 1,000 Btuh of total input of all appliances in the

conﬁned space, but not less than 100 square inches of

free area. See Example and Figure 2.

EXAMPLE

If the combined input rate of all appliances is less than

or equal to 100,000 Btuh, each opening must have

a free area of at least 100 in

. If the combined input

rate of all appliances is 120,000 Btuh, each opening

must have a free area of at least 120 in

of 1 square inch per 4,000 Btuh of total appliance input.

The openings shall exchange directly, or by ducts, with

the outdoor spaces (crawl or attic) that freely exchange

with the outdoors. See Figure 3 (page 9).

Outdoor Air Using Vertical Ducts

If combustion air is taken from outdoors through vertical

ducts, the openings and ducts must have a minimum free

area of one square inch per 4,000 Btuh of total appliance

input. See Figure 4 (page 9).

Outdoor Air Using Horizontal Ducts

If combustion air is taken from outdoors through horizontal

ducts, the openings and ducts must have a minimum free

area of one square inch per 2,000 Btuh of total appliance

input. Ducts must have cross - sectional area at least as

large as the free area of their respective openings to the

furnace space. See Figure 5.

Air Directly Through An Exterior Wall

If combustion air is provided directly through an exterior

wall, the two openings must each have free area of at

Alternate Method of Providing Air from

Outside

If acceptable under local Codes, it is permitted to provide

outside air using one opening (See NFGC). Generally,

conﬁned spaces must have two openings in the space for

combustion air. One opening must be within 12 inches of

the ceiling, and the other must be within 12 inches of the

ﬂoor. However, an alternative method recently adopted by

the NFGC uses one opening within 12 inches of the top

of the space. This method may be used if it is acceptable

to the local codes.

THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS MUST BE MET:

1. The opening must start within 12” of the top of the

structure and connect with the out of doors through

vertical or horizontal ducts or be ducted to a crawl or

attic space that connects with the out of doors.

2. The opening must have a minimum free area of 1 sq.

in. per 3,000 Btu per hour of the total input rating of all

equipment located in the enclosure.

3. The free area must not be less than the sum of all the

areas of the vent connectors in the enclosure.

Spaces

An unconﬁned space is an area including all rooms not

separated by doors with a volume greater than 50 cubic

feet per 1,000 Btuh of the combined input rates of all

appliances which draw combustion air from that space.

In general, a furnace installed in an unconﬁned space will

not require outside air for combustion. However, in homes

built for energy efﬁciency (low air change rates), it may

be necessary to provide outside air to ensure adequate

combustion and venting, even though the furnace is located

in an unconﬁned space. See Example below.

EXAMPLE

A space with a water heater rated at 45,000 Btuh

input and a furnace rated at 75,000 Btuh requires a

volume of 6,000 cubic feet [50 x (45 + 75) = 6,000] to

be considered unconﬁned. If the space has an 8 foot

ceiling, the ﬂoor area of the space must be 750 sq. ft.

(6,000 / 8 = 750).

NOTES:

1. Subtract 2.5 ft. for each additional 2 inch long radius elbow, 5 ft. for each additional 2 inch short radius elbow, 3.5 ft. for each additional 3 inch long radius elbow,

and 7 ft. for each additional 3 inch short radius elbow. Subtract 5 ft for each 2” tee and 8 ft for each 3” tee.

2. Two 45 degree elbows are equivalent to one 90 degree elbow.

3. This table applies for elevations from sea level to 2,000 ft. For higher elevations, decrease pipe lengths by 8% per 1,000 ft of altitude.

4. A long radius elbow’s centerline radius is equal to or greater than 1.5 times the vent diameter.

Vent Pipe Lengths

Category IV appliances operate with positive vent pressure

and therefore require vent systems which are thoroughly

sealed. They also produce liquid condensate, which is

slightly acidic and can cause severe corrosion of ordinary

venting materials. Furnace operation can be adversely

affected by restrictive vent and combustion air piping.

The inducer assembly on this furnace can be rotated to

vent the ﬂue products out of the top, left or right side. This

increases the ﬂexibility of which direction the vent pipe

can exit the furnace.

Vent Pipe Material

Vent and combustion air pipe and ﬁttings must be one

of the following materials in the list and must conform to

the indicated ANSI/ASTM standards.

MATERIALS STANDARDS

Schedule 40PVC ......................................................D1785

PVC-DWV .................................................................D2665

SDR-21 & SDR-26 ....................................................D2241

ABS-DWV ................................................................. D2661

Schedule 40 ABS .....................................................F628

Foam / Cellular Core PVC ........................................F891

*PolyPro

by DuraVent ..............................................ULC-S636

*When using PolyPro

, all venting and ﬁttings must be from the same

manufacturer with no interchanging of other materials. Refer to speciﬁc

instructions supplied with the PolyPro vent kits

When joining PVC to PVC, use cement that conforms to

ASTM standard D2564. PVC primer must meet standard

ASTM F656. When joining ABS to ABS, use cement that

conforms to ASTM standard D2235. When joining PVC

to ABS, use cement as speciﬁed in procedure from ASTM

standard D3138

In Canada, all plastic vent pipes and ﬁttings including

any cement, cleaners, or primers must be certiﬁed as a

system to ULC S636. However this requirement does not

apply to the ﬁnish ﬂanges or piping internal to the furnace.

Vent Pipe Length & Diameter

In order for the furnace to operate properly, the combustion

air and vent piping must not be excessively restrictive.

• The ventingsystem shouldbedesignedtohavethe

minimum number of elbows or turns.

• Transitiontothenalventdiametershouldbedoneas

close to the furnace outlet as practical.

• Always use the same size or a larger pipe for

combustion air that is used for the exhaust vent.

Table 1 (page 10) indicates the maximum allowable pipe

length for a furnace of known input rate, when installed

with piping of selected diameter and number of elbows. To

use the table, the furnace input rate, the centerline length

and the number of elbows on each pipe must be known.

When estimating the length of vent runs, consideration

must be made to the effect of elbows and other ﬁttings.

This is conveniently handled using the idea of “equivalent

length”. This means the ﬁttings are assigned a linear

length that accounts for the pressure drop they will cause.

For example: a 2” diameter, long radius elbow is worth

the equivalent of 2.5 feet of linear run. A 90 degree tee

is worth 7 ft.

The equivalent lenghts of tees and various elbows are

listed in Table 1. Measure the linear length of your vent run

and then add in the equivalent length of each ﬁtting. The

total length, including the equivalent ﬁtting lengths, must

be less than the maximum length speciﬁed in the table.

This furnace has been certiﬁed for installation with zero

clearance between vent piping and combustible surfaces.

However, it is good practice to allow space for convenience

in installation and service.

• In the absence of local codes, the location of any

combustion air inlet relative to any vent terminal

must be at least 8 inches. This includes installations

involving more than one furnace.

• Thequalityofoutdoorairmustalsobeconsidered.Be

sure that the combustion air intake is not located near a

source of solvent fumes or other chemicals which can

cause corrosion of the furnace combustion system.

(See

page 5 for a sample list of substances).

• Routepipingasdirectaspossiblebetweenthefurnace

and the outdoors. Horizontal piping from inducer to

the ﬂue pipe must be sloped 1/4” per foot to ensure

condensate ﬂows towards the drain tee or PVC trap.

Longer vent runs require larger pipe diameters. Refer

to the Inducer & Venting Options section on page 17

for additional information.

• IfaDirectVent(2-pipe)systemisused,thecombustion

air intake and the vent exhaust must be located in the

same atmospheric pressure zone. This means both

pipes must exit the building through the same portion

of exterior wall or roof as shown in Figure 35 (page 46)

or Figure 40 (page 51).

• Piping must be mechanically supported so that its

weight does not bear on the furnace. Pipe supports

must be installed a minimum of every ﬁve feet along the

vent run to ensure no displacement after installation.

Supports may be at shorter intervals if necessary to

ensure that there are no sagging sections that can trap

condensate. It is recommended to install couplings

along the vent pipe, on either side of the exterior

wall (Figure 35 or Figure 40). These couplings may be

required by local code.

• If breakable connections are required in the

combustion air inlet pipe (if present) and exhaust vent

piping, then straight neoprene couplings for 2” or 3”

piping with hose clamps can be used. These couplings

can be ordered through your local furnace distributor.

To install a coupling:

1. Slide the rubber coupling over the end of the pipe that

is attached to the furnace and secure it with one of the

hose clamps.

2. Slide the other end of the rubber coupling onto the other

pipe from the vent.

3. Secure the coupling with the second hose clamp,

ensuring that the connection is tight and leak free.

Outdoor Terminations - Horizontal Venting

conformance to applicable codes. A vent terminal

must be located at least 3 feet above any forced air

inlet located within 10 feet. This does not apply to

the combustion air inlet of a direct vent (two pipe)

appliance. In Canada, CSA B149.1 takes precedence

over these instructions. See Table 17 (page 45).

Existing Installations

When an existing furnace is removed from a vent system

serving other appliances, the existing vent system may

not be sized properly to vent the remaining appliances

(For example: water heater). An improperly sized venting

system can result in the formation of condensate, leakage,

or spillage. The existing vent system should be checked

to make sure it is in compliance with NFGC and must be

brought into compliance before installing the furnace.

NOTE: If replacing an existing furnace, it is possible you

will encounter an existing plastic venting system that is

subject to a Consumer Product Safety Commission recall.

The pipes involved in the recall are High Temperature

Condensate Disposal

The method for disposing of condensate varies according

to local codes. Consult your local code or authority having

jurisdiction. Neutralizer kit P/N 902377 is available for

use with this furnace. 

This furnace has multiple options for positioning the vent

pipe as described in the, Vent and Inducer Assembly

Options section (page 17). Each of the condensate

drain lines must be J-trapped using ﬁeld supplied parts.

After the condensate lines are J-trapped, they may be

combined together when routed to the drain.

For Installations where there is limited clearance for the

J-Trap (such as an attic where it may be installed between

ceiling joists), either side of the J-Trap can be shortened

to a minimum of 3 Inches. See Figure 11 (page 16).

to obtain clearances shown in Figure 7, a riser may be

provided as shown in Figure 9 (page 12). Insulation is

required to prevent freezing of this section of pipe. See

Table 3 (page 17) for vent freezing protection.

Outdoor Terminations - Vertical Venting

Termination spacing requirements from the roof and from

each other are shown in

Figure 10. The roof penetration

must be properly ﬂashed and waterproofed with a plumbing

roof boot or equivalent ﬂashing. Vent and combustion air

piping may be installed in an existing chimney which is

not in use provided that:

Damping ducts, ﬂexible vibration isolators, or pleated

media-style ﬁlters on the return air inlet of the furnace

may be used to reduce the transmission of equipment

noise eminating from the furnace. These treatments can

produce a quieter installation, particularly in the heated

space. However, they can increase the pressure drop in

the duct system. Care must be taken to maintain the proper

maximum pressure rise across the furnace, temperature

rise and ﬂow rate. This may mean increasing the duct size

and/or reducing the blower speed. These treatments must

be constructed and installed in accordance with NFPA and

SMACNA construction standards. Consult with local codes

for special requirements. For best sound performance,

install all the needed gaskets and grommets around

penetrations into the furnace, such as for electrical wiring.

FURNACE INSTALLATION

*SC , *SD & *SD-E series gas furnaces offer a wide range

Before using Table 4, the number of pipes (1-pipe or 2-pipe)

connected to the furnace must be known. Find the proper

furnace style (upﬂow, horizontal, or downﬂow) and then

the side that the pipes will exit from the furnace. Finally

select the option that properly matches your installation

type. For *SC & *SL series, Figure 35, Figure 36, Figure 37,

Figure 38, or Figure 39. For *SD, *SD-E & *SM series, see

Figure 40, Figure 41, Figure 42, or Figure 43.

NOTE: It is important that Direct Vent (2-pipe) systems

maintain an airtight ﬂow path from the air inlet to the ﬂue

gas outlet. The furnace ships from the factory with two

holes in the cabinet for the air inlet and ﬂue gas outlet.

In certain conﬁgurations, it is necessary to remove and

relocate a plastic plug in the furnace cabinet. If changing

the position of the air inlet and ﬂue gas outlet, it is required

that the previous hole be closed off with the plastic plug to

maintain air tightness in the furnace. The hole locations

for all furnace series are shown in

Figure 31 and Figure 32.

The 2” PVC tee, reducer, PVC Trap and 1/2” X 1/2” hose

barb are used when the inducer is rotated to vent out thru

the left or right side of the furnace cabinet. See Figure 21.

The 1/2” X 3/4” hose barb can be used to route the

condensate drain to the outside of the cabinet. It must

be installed from inside the cabinet with the threaded

end inserted thru the 1 1/16” hole. The condensate drain

should be connected to the barbed end. Attach 1” PVC

drain line to the threaded end. See Figure 31 (page 32)

or Figure 32 (page 33) for hole location.

Typical Orientation

1. Install the PVC Tee vertically on the 2” vent pipe that is

extending out the side of the cabinet. Permanently bond

them together using appropriate primer and cement.

Refer to the typical orientation shown in Figure 21.

2. Install the reducer or PVC trap (if supplied) on the bottom

end of the PVC Tee. Permanently bond them together

using appropriate primer and cement.
