IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
4
WARNING:
It is imperative to maintain proper operation of the
venting system, including the masonry chimney (if
applicable). Insufficient venting could create the
production of excessive amounts of Carbon Monoxide
(CO) - a colorless, odorless gas that is produced during
incomplete combustion of any fuel. It can cause death
without warning. Carbon monoxide poisoning can
cause flu- like symptoms and also dizziness, fatigue,
headaches, nausea, and irregular breathing.
If you suspect that you are experiencing CO poisoning,
get fresh air immediately. Leave the home and call
for assistance from a neighbor’s home.
CAUTION:
This furnace requires unrestricted airflow for
combustion and ventilation. For proper and safe
operation, it is extremely important that the furnace
receives an unobstructed flow of clean, fresh air to
properly burn the fuel gas. If this flow of air is restricted,
the partially burned combustion gases may create
dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide that can
cause personal injury or death.
Do not block or obstruct air openings on the furnace, air
openings or spacings around the furnace area or the room
or closet the furnace is in. Furniture and drapery should be
arranged so that the supply air registers and return grilles are
not obstructed.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)
recommends every home have a Carbon Monoxide detector
in hallways near the bedrooms in each sleeping area. CO
detectors should be certified to the most recent requirements
of the UL, IAS OR CSA Standard and should be installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the detector
manufacturers instructions.
If your furnace obtains its air through a pipe to the outdoors,
do not allow the inlet of the pipe to become blocked. If the
furnace is operated without adequate air for combustion, the
flame roll-out switch will open, turning off the gas supply to
the burners. This indicates that a serious problem with the
burners has occurred and must be corrected immediately.
Only a licensed HVAC technician can reset this switch.
Before remodeling near the furnace, consult with a local code
official or the National Fuel Gas Code to make sure you will be
in compliance with supplying adequate air for combustion. By
erecting new walls, it is sometimes possible to inadvertently
restrict the furnace’s air supply. You can find more information
about supplying combustion air in the NFGC, which is available
at many libraries.
FILTER
WARNING:
Never operate the furnace without a filter in place.
Accumulating dust in the return air can build up on
internal components, resulting in loss of efficiency,
equipment damage, and possible fire.
Keep air filters cleaned. Clean or replace filter to maintain proper
airflow and achieve maximum efficiency. Refer to page 7 for
Maintenance & Inspection information.
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
WARNING:
Do not place combustible materials on or against
the furnace cabinet or within 6 inches of the vent
pipe. Furnace area must be kept clear and free of
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapors and liquids. A fire or explosion may result
causing property damage, personal injury or loss of
life. Failure to follow the safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death or property damage.
The furnace is designed to have certain clearances to combustible
items such as wood, paper, etc. Some types of insulation are
combustible. If your furnace is installed in an attic, near unfinished
walls, or in other insulated space, keep area surrounding the
furnace free of insulating material.
SOURCES OF COROSION
It is known that certain common household chemicals can
cause heat exchanger corrosion if the vapors are pulled into
the furnace’s burners The following is a list of chemicals that
should not be used or stored near the furnace.
Do not store these chemicals near the furnace:
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
FLOOD DAMAGE
WARNING:
Do not use this furnace if any part has been under
water. A flood damaged furnace is extremely
dangerous. Attempts to use the furnace can result in
fire or explosion. A qualified service agency should
be contacted to inspect the furnace and to replace all
gas controls, control system parts, electrical parts that
have been wet or the furnace if deemed necessary.
AVERTISSEMENT:
Ne pas installer ce générateur d’air chaud si l’une de ses pièces a
été immergée dans de l’eau. Un générateur d’air chaud endommagé
par une inondation est extrêmement dangereux. Toute tentative
d’utiliser le générateur d’air chaud peut entraîner un incendie

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase on your new furnace! With
our dedication to quality, superior reliability, and outstanding
warranty, we know you will be pleased with this new appliance.
This furnace has been designed and built to provide many years
of safe and dependable home comfort, providing it is properly
installed and regular maintenance has been performed. Improper
use or insufficient maintenance can shorten the life of the furnace
and result in serious personal injury or property damage. Please
read this manual thoroughly and familiarize yourself with the
safety, operation and maintenance procedures for this furnace.
DO NOT DESTROY THIS MANUAL. KEEP IN A SAFE PLACE
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
Your furnace is designed to fulfill the requirements of being
classified as a Category IV furnace. This classification is related to
the furnace’s Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating, the
percentage of fuel that is converted into usable heating energy.
The furnace components shown on page 6 will help to identify
and locate various parts of the furnace. The component you need
to familiarize yourself with is the gas valve. You will use this to
turn the furnace on and off. There are no user serviceable
parts. All repairs must be performed by a licensed HVAC
technician.
Category IV (Condensing) Furnaces
Category IV furnaces typically have an AFUE rating over 90%
and are mainly vented through plastic PVC pipe. These furnaces
also produce liquid condensate which is slightly acidic. The vent
pipe must be sloped upwards away from the furnace to properly
drain the condensate back to the condensate disposal system.
Condensing type furnaces require condensate drain lines
to be properly installed by the installer. Depending on your
configuration, the drain lines may be routed out the left or
right sides of the furnace. These drain lines must maintain a
downward slope to ensure proper condensate drainage.
Condensate must flow freely during furnace operation. The
homeowner must make sure the condensate drain lines do
not become blocked, pinched or crushed.
If the furnace is installed in an area where temperatures
fall below freezing, special precautions must be made for
insulating condensate drain lines that drain to the outdoors.
If condensate freezes in the lines, this will cause the
condensate drain switch to shut down the furnace. Only
a licensed HVAC technician can reset this switch.
FILTER
WARNING:
Never operate the furnace without a filter in place.
Accumulating dust in the return air can build up on
internal components, resulting in loss of efficiency,
equipment damage, and possible fire.
Air filter(s) are not supplied with the furnace as shipped
from the factory. The installer must provide a high velocity
filter and rack for a filter in the return air duct adjacent to the
furnace, or in a return air grill to the furnace.
The furnace should always have a clean filter located either
at the air return on the furnace or in an air return register. If
the filter becomes dirty, it should be cleaned or replaced.
New or newly renovated homes may require more frequent
changing until the construction dust has minimized. Filters
designed to remove smaller particles such as pollen, may
require additional maintenance.
Always reinstall the doors on the furnace after servicing or
cleaning/changing the filters. Do not operate the furnace
without all doors and covers in place.
FURNACE LOCATION
If a furnace is installed in relatively small utility room or closet, the
installation needs openings in the walls or door to let combustion
air in. Make sure that these openings remain unobstructed.
Do not modify these openings in any way without consulting a
licensed HVAC technician.
If the furnace fails to operate check the following:
1. Is the thermostat setting correct?
2. Are the blower compartment door(s) in place?
3. Has the circuit breaker tripped or the control board fuse
burned open?
4. Is the gas turned on at the manual shutoff?
5. Is the filter dirty or clogged?
If the furnace still doesn’t operate, contact a licensed HVAC
technician
