inshot burners and hot surface igniter for safe,
dependable heating.
Redundant gas valve. Safe and efficient. Features 1 gas
control with 2 internal shutoff valves. Valve appearance
varies with furnace model.
Vent outlet. Uses PVC pipe to carry flue gas from the fur-
nace’s combustion system (right or left side).

Heavy-duty blower. Circulates air across the heat ex-
changers to transfer heat into the home.
Secondary condensing heat exchanger (inside). Wrings
out more heat through condensation. Constructed with
polypropylene-laminated steel to ensure durability.
Primary serpentine heat exchanger (inside). Stretches fuel
dollars with the S-shaped heat-flow design. Solid con-
struction of corrosion-resistant aluminized steel means re-
liability.
Furnace control board.
3-amp fuse provides electrical and component protection.
Light emitting diode (LED) on furnace control board.
Code light is for diagnosing furnace operation and service
requirements.
Pressure switch(es) ensure adequate flow of flue gas
through furnace and out vent system.
Rollout switch (manual reset) to prevent overtemperature.
Junction box for 115-v electrical power supply. (May be
located on right or left side)
