the connections can be made either through the “top” or “bottom” of
the furnace.

WARNING
This furnace is shipped from the factory configured for natural gas
at standard altitude. Propane gas installations require an orifice
change to compensate for the energy content difference between
natural and propane gas.
High altitude installations may require both a pressure switch and
an orifice change. These changes are necessary to compensate
for the natural reduction in the density of both the gas fuel and the
combustion air at higher altitude.
For installations above 7000 feet, please refer to your distributor
for required kit(s).

WARNING
A condensing gas furnace achieves its high level of efficiency by
extracting almost all of the heat from the products of combustion
and cooling them to the point where condensation takes place.
Because of the relatively low flue gas temperature and water con-
densation requirements, PVC pipe is used as venting material.
This furnace must not be connected to Type B, BW, or L vent or vent
connector, and must not be vented into any portion of a factory built
or masonry chimney except when used as a pathway for PVC as
described later in this section. Never common vent this appliance
with another appliance or use a vent which is used by a solid fuel
appliance. Do not use commercially available “no hub connec-
tors” other than those shipped with this product.
It is the responsibility of the installer to follow the manufacturers’
recommendations and to verify that all vent/flue piping and connec-
tors are compatible with furnace flue products. Additionally, it is the
