Tube location when used in DOWNFLOW application
1. All tubing must be connected securely and routed to avoid kinks and traps.
2. Pressure tubing must always slope away from pressure switch to collector box connection as shown.
3. HORIZONTAL-LEFT installations require the collector box pressure tube to be relocated between the inducer housing and the blower
shelf to prevent a trap. Refer to the Installation Instructions for further details.
