2.
Upflow and Counterflow units.
Loosen the worm gear hose clamps on the rubber el-
bow and detach it from both the induced draft blower
and the vent/flue pipe.
3.
Upflow and Counterflow units.
Remove the vent/flue pipe from the furnace.
4. Cut the vent/ flue pipe at the elbow nearest the coupling
end of the pipe (See “ Vent/Flue Pipe Cuts” figure). The
section of pipe attached to the coupling will reach
through the side panel to the induced draft blower. Dis-
card unused pipe and elbows.
Counterflow units.
Cut the vent/flue pipe 3.718 inches from the blower deck
coupling (See “Vent/Flue Pipe Cuts” figure). Save vent/
flue pipe attached to blower deck coupling for use in
the alternate location. Discard remaining pipe and el-
bows.

5. Remove plastic plug from alternate vent/flue location.
Relocate and install plug in standard vent/flue location
(top cover).

Remove plastic plug from alternate vent/flue location.
Relocate and install plug in standard vent/flue location
(basepan). Plug remaining hole in blower deck with plas-
tic plug included in the drain kit bag.
6.
Upflow and Counterflow units.
Insert cut section of vent/flue pipe and coupling into al-
ternate vent/flue location. Using a rubber coupling and
worm gear hose clamps from the drain kit bag, attach
the vent/flue pipe and coupling to the induced draft
blower. Secure the coupling to the cabinet using the
screws removed in step 1 or with field-supplied 3/8” #8
self drilling screws.
WARNING
The rubber elbow is not designed to support a load.
When the rubber elbow is mounted externally to the
furnace cabinet, extreme care must be taken to ad-
equately support field-supplied vent/flue piping. As
damage can result in leaks causing bodily injury or
death due to exposure to flue gases, including carbon
monoxide.
7.
Upflow and Counterflow units.
For upright installations, externally mount the rubber
elbow to the vent/flue coupling using a worm gear hose
clamp. Secure field supplied vent/flue piping to the rub-
ber elbow using a worm gear hose clamp. Note: Use of
the alternate vent/flue location for upright installations,
requires the drain trap be installed on the same side of
the unit as the flue pipe.
8.
Upflow and Counterflow units.
For
horizontal installations, externally secure the field-
supplied vent/flue pipe directly to the vent/flue coupling
using a PVC or ABS coupling or elbow.
