INSTALLATION AND LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS
WARNING
Failure to install the A-MAIZE-ING HEAT® furnace according to the instructions in
this manual may result in death, serious injury, property damage, and/or may void
the warranty.
Installation Configurations
IMPORTANT
The A-Maize-Ing Heat® furnace is for use as a solid fuel fired central heat source or supplementary
furnace.
Several factors should be considered when choosing the location in which to install the A-Maize-Ing
Heat® furnace. The unit cannot be installed in a location that exposes it to the elements. It must be
installed in a location protected from the weather. The unit provides radiant heat in addition to the
heat delivered from the hot air supply. The radiant heat can help efficiently heat a structure. For
instance, if you have a basement that you would like to have warmer, consider installing the unit in the
basement since the radiant heat will provide additional warmth to the space where it is located.
Minimum clearances for the A-Maize-Ing Heat® furnace is 2” from top of the plenum to the ceiling, 9”
on either side, 18” from the back of the furnace flue to the wall, and 28” from the back of the unit to
the back wall. These clearances must be maintained for all installations.
The A-Maize-Ing Heat® furnace should be installed with plenums constructed of metal. The metal hot
air plenum should be connected to a warm-air supply-duct system constructed of materials with a
minimum temperature rating of 250F.
**IMPORTANT**
Maintain the 196 sq. in. cross section hot air and return air connections to your existing duct work.
Reduction in size of these connections can restrict air movement over and through the heat exchanger,
resulting in overheating and operational problems with the furnace.
Mobile Home Installations
When installing the unit in a mobile home, the appliance must be secured to the floor and an outside
air kit must be used.
