WARNING:
The furnace was shipped from the factory
equipped to operate on natural gas. Conversion
to LP/propane gas must be performed by a
licensed HVAC technician using a factory
supplied conversion kit. Failure to use the
proper conversion kit can cause fire, explosion,
property damage, carbon monoxide poisoning,
personal injury, or death.

All gas piping and shutoff valves must be
installed in compliance with local codes and
utility regulations by licensed installers. DO
NOT attempt to modify, or tap into existing
gas lines yourself. Fire or explosion may result

exactly could result in serious injury, death or
property damage.
VENTING SYSTEM
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.
• The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)
recommends every home have a Carbon Monoxide
