Leveling Legs (If Desired)
In upflow position with side return inlet(s), leveling legs may be used
(see
). Install field-supplied, 5/16 x 1-1/2 in. (8 x 38 mm) (max)
corrosion-resistant machine bolts, washers and nuts.

Fig. 12 – Leveling Legs
NOTE:
Bottom closure must be used when leveling legs are used. It
may be necessary to remove and reinstall bottom closure panel to install
leveling legs. To remove bottom closure panel, see Item 1. in Bottom
Return Air Inlet section.
To install leveling legs:
1. Position furnace on its back. Locate and drill a hole in each bottom
).
2. For each leg, install nut on bolt and then install bolt and nut in hole.
(Install flat washer if desired.)
3. Install another nut on other side of furnace base. (Install flat washer
if desired.)
4. Adjust outside nut to provide desired height, and tighten inside nut
to secure arrangement.
5. Reinstall bottom closure panel if removed.
LOCATION RELATIVE TO COOLING EQUIPMENT
The cooling coil must be installed parallel with, or on the downstream
side of the unit to avoid condensation in the heat exchangers. When
installed parallel with the furnace, dampers or other flow control must
prevent chilled air from entering the furnace. If the dampers are
manually operated, they must be equipped with means to prevent
operation of either unit unless the damper is in the full-heat or full-cool
position.
Suspended Furnace Support
The furnace may be supported under each end with threaded rod, angle
iron or metal plumber’s strap as shown (see
). Secure
angle iron to bottom of furnace as shown. Heavy-gauge sheet metal
straps (plumber’s straps) may be used to suspend the furnace from each
bottom corner. To prevent screws from pulling out, use 2 #8 x 3/4-in. (19
mm) screws into the side and 2 #8 x 3/4-in. (19 mm) screws in the
bottom of the furnace casing for each strap (see
). If
the screws are attached to ONLY the furnace sides and not the bottom,
the straps must be vertical against the furnace sides and not pull away
from the furnace sides, so that the strap attachment screws are not in
tension (are loaded in shear) for reliable support.
Platform Furnace Support
Construct working platform at location where all required furnace
clearances are met (see
and
). For furnaces with 1-in. (25
mm) clearance requirement on side, set furnace on noncombustible
blocks, bricks or angle iron. For crawl space installations, if the furnace
is not suspended from the floor joists, the ground underneath furnace
must be level and the furnace set on blocks or bricks.
