duct register and open louver area to ob-
tain necessary airflow. Use NORDYNE’s
certiduct program to determine proper duct
size for A/C.
DUCTED RETURN AIR
M3 furnaces with model numbers ending in AW
or BW are factory configured for the return air
to flow through the front louvered door. The
return air may also be attached to either side or
the top of the furnace cabinet using a field
installed kit. Refer to Table 12 for the NORDYNE
ducted return kit P/N number. The location and
size of the side and top return air connections
are shown in Figure 1. The filter size for the side
return air is 20” x 20” x 1”. For top return the
filter size is 24” x 16” x 1”.
M3 furnaces with model numbers ending in
BWT are factory configured for the return air to
enter the top of the furnace.
