Figure 16. Removing the Bottom Panel

Removing the Bottom Panel

Remove the two screws that secure the bottom cap to the 

furnace. Pivot the bottom cap down to release the bottom 

panel. Once the bottom panel has been removed, reinstall 

the bottom cap. See Figure 16.

Horizontal Applications

Do not install the furnace on its front or its back. See 

Figure 17.

 WARNING

Figure 17. 

This furnace can be installed in horizontal applications with 

either right or left hand air discharge.

Refer to Figure 18 for clearances in horizontal applications.

access.
† Allow proper clearances to accommodate condensate trap.
‡ For installations on a combustible floor, do not install 

the furnace directly on carpeting, tile or other combustible 

materials other than wood flooring.

Suspended Installation of Horizontal Unit

This furnace may be installed in either an attic or a crawl 

space. Either suspend the furnace from roof rafters or floor 

joists, as shown in Figure 19, or install the furnace on a 

platform, as shown in Figure 20. A horizontal suspension 

kit (51W10) may be ordered from your distributor or use 

equivalent.
