GENERAL INFORMATION

Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and

CAUTION. These words are safety alert words. DANGER

indicates the most serious hazards which

will result in

severe personal injury or death. WARNING indicates hazards

which

could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is

used to indicate unsafe practices which could result in minor

injury or property damage.

IMPORTANT FACTS

The flow of combustion and ventilating air must not be

obstructed from reaching the furnace. Air openings provided

in the casing of the furnace must be kept free of obstructions

which would restrict airflow, thereby affecting efficiency and

safe operation of your furnace.

Also, air openings provided to the area in which the furnace is

installed and the space around the furnace shall not be blocked

or obstructed. Keep this in mind should you choose to remodel

the area which contains your furnace. If additional insulation

is added after the furnace is installed, the area around the

furnace must be inspected to ensure it is free and clear of

insulation. If this furnace is installed in an attic or other

insulated space it must be kept free and clear of all insulating

materials as some insulating materials are combustible.

Furnaces must have air for proper performance. There must

be a free flow of fresh air sufficient for efficient combustion

and safe ventilation of your furnace.

The combustion air for your furnace must be fresh uncon-

taminated air. Paints, varnishes, laundry bleaches, deter-

gents, many household cleaners, water softening salts, adhe-

sives, and all such products release fumes containing com-

pounds which could lead to early heat exchanger and vent

system deterioration. Do not store these types of products

near your furnace.

WARNING

DO NOT USE THIS UNIT IF ANY PART HAS BEEN UNDER

WATER. IMMEDIATELY CALL A QUALIFIED SERVICE

TECHNICIAN TO INSPECT THE FURNACE AND TO RE-

PLACE ANY PART OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM AND ANY

GAS CONTROL WHICH HAS BEEN UNDERWATER.

WARNING

If the information in this manual is not followed exactly,

a fire or explosion may result causing property

damage, personal injury or loss of life.

— Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable

instructions.

• If you cannot reach your gas supplier,

call the fire department.

— DO NOT RELY ON SMELL ALONE TO DETECT

LEAKS. DUE TO VARIOUS FACTORS, YOU MAY

NOT BE ABLE TO SMELL FUEL GASES.

• U.L. recognized fuel gas and CO detectors are

recommended in all applications, and their

installation should be in accordance with the

manufacturer's recommendations and/or local

laws, rules, regulations, or customs.

User’s Information Proper Maintenance Reduces Energy Use AIR FILTERS NOTE: Filters are NOT included with all Furnaces A clean filter saves money. When the furnace circulates and filters the air in your home, dust and dirt particles build up on the filter. Excessive accumulation can block the airflow, forcing the unit to work harder to maintain desired temperatures. Airflow And the harder your unit has to work, the more energy it uses. So you pay more any time your system is running with a dirty filter.

User’s Information Upflow / Horizontal Furnace Filters The Upflow/Horizontal furnace when installed horizontally requires a horizontal filter kit. The filters may be located remote to the furnace or in the return air duct near the furnace. Check with your dealer for the location of your filters. An upflow/horizontal furnace in horizontal return air filter application, as shown, features two 16" x 20" x 1" filters in the 17-1/2", 21" and 24-1/2" wide furnace cabinets.

User’s Information The Problem Solver A furnace is not a household appliance. It is complex and requires professional maintenance and repair. That’s why attempts at “do-it-yourself” repairs on an inwarranty unit may void the remainder of your warranty. Other than performing the simple maintenance recommended in this manual, you should not attempt to make any adjustments to your furnace. Your dealer will be able to take care of any questions or problems you may have.

User’s Information Regular Dealer Maintenance Never stop the cooling system by shutting off the main power. If the main power to your air conditioner is ever disconnected for more than three hours, turn off the thermostat. Then wait for at least three more hours after the power has been restored before turning the thermostat back on. Failure to follow this procedure could result in damage to your air conditioning system. 1. GENERAL INSPECTION – Examine the furnace installation for the following items: a.

User’s Information 7. OPERATION – Your warm air furnace should not be operated in a corrosive atmosphere. Paint solvents, cleaning chemicals, spray propellants, and bleaches should not be used in the vicinity of the furnace during normal operation. 8. CONDENSATE DRAINS – If you have a cooling coil installed with your furnace, condensate drains should be checked and cleaned periodically to assure that condensate can drain freely from coil to drain. If condensate cannot drain freely water damage could occur.
