CERTIFIED

Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous due to

gas and electrical components.

Only trained and qualified

service agency personnel should install, repair, or service

heating equipment. Untrained personnel can perform basic

maintenance functions described in User’s Information

Manual such as cleaning and replacing air filters. All other

operations must be performed by trained service personnel. When
working on heating equipment, observe precautions in the

literature, on tags, and on labels attached to or shipped with the
unit and other safety precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes including the National Fuel Gas Code

(NFGC) NFPA 54--2006/ANSI Z223.1--2006 in the USA, CSA
B149.1--05 National Standard of Canada, Natural Gas and Propane

Installation Codes (NSCNGPIC) in Canada, and the Installation
Standards, Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems

(NFPA 90B) ANSI/NFPA 90B. Wear safety glasses and work

gloves. Have a fire extinguisher available during start--up and
adjustment procedures and service calls.

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to

furnace.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing

controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous

operation.

CAUTION

!

GENERAL

This furnace can be installed as a direct vent (2--pipe) or non--direct
vent (1--pipe) condensing gas furnace. These instructions are

written as if the furnace is installed in an upflow application. An

upflow furnace application is where the blower is located below
the combustion and controls section of the furnace, and

conditioned air is discharged upward. Since this furnace can be
installed in any of the 4 positions shown in Fig. 2, you may need to

revise your orientation to component location accordingly.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)

PRECAUTIONS

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may damage furnace

components.
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components.

Take precautions during furnace installation and servicing

to protect the furnace electronic control. Precautions will

prevent electrostatic discharges from personnel and hand

tools which are held during the procedure. These

precautions will help to avoid exposing the control to

electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control,

and the person at the same electrostatic potential.

CAUTION

!

1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. DO NOT TOUCH

THE CONTROL OR ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE
CONTROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY’S
ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.

2. Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the fur-

nace chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in a
