SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

CAUTION! 

Only trained personnel should install or service heating equipment. When working with heating equipment, be sure to read and 
understand all precautions in the documentation, on labels, and on tags that accompany the equipment. Failure to follow all safety 
guidelines may result in damage to equipment, severe personal injury or death.

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS

Use caution when installing and servicing the furnace to avoid and control electrostatic discharge. ESD can impact electronic components. These 
precautions must be followed to prevent ESD from hand tools and personnel. Following these precautions will protect the control from ESD by 
discharging static electricity buildup to ground.

1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Do not touch the control or the wiring prior to 

discharging your body’s electrostatic discharge to ground.

2. To ground yourself, touch your hand and tools to a clean, metal (unpainted) furnace 

surface near the control board.

3. Service the furnace after touching the chassis. Your body will recharge with static 

electricity as you shuffle your feet or move around, and you must reground yourself.

4. Reground yourself if you touch ungrounded items.
5. Before handling a new control, reground yourself; this will protect the 

control. Store used and new controls in separate containers before 
touching ungrounded objects.

6. ESD damage can also be prevented by using an ESD service kit.

Twinning:

The 

ICM2810 is Twinning compatible with another ICM2810 control board only. By connecting the designated “TWIN” screw terminals and the 24 VAC common 

together, the controls are designed to turn on/off the blower simultaneously and at the same speed. (NOTE: An external AC relay, whose coil is connected between 
R & W of the primary furnace and whose normally open contacts connect R & W of the secondary furnace, must be provided to cause both furnaces to heat). A 
common ground between the two furnaces is also required.

Main Operation:

On the application of power, the control will continuously monitor the rollout switch, limit switch, pressure switch, gas valve output and flame sense. During a 

Call 

for Heat, the control makes sure the limit switch is closed and the pressure switch contact is open before turning on the Inducer blower, which will be energized for 
15-seconds in a pre-purge mode. Following the pre-purge period, the pressure switch contact is closed and power is applied to the hot surface ignitor (there is a 
18-second warm-up period). The gas valve is energized if a flame is sensed during this trial-for-ignition period, the blower motor will turn on following a 30-second 
delay. When the call for heat ends, the control will turn off the gas valve, the inducer blower will turn off after a 15-second post-purge period, and the heat blower will 
turn off after the jumper-selectable period of time (if jumper is missing, default Heat Blower Off delay is 120 seconds). During a 

Call for Cool, the control will energize 

the cool blower after a 5-second delay. When the call for cool ends, the control will turn the cool blower off after a 45-second delay.

Remove Existing Control:

1. Turn thermostat to OFF position or set it to the lowest possible setting.
2. Turn OFF electrical supply to furnace.

CAUTION!

 

Failure to turn off gas and electric supplies can result in 
explosion, fire, death, or personal injury.

3. Label each wire with the correct terminal designation.
4. Disconnect the power supply and the thermostat lead wires from the existing 

ignition control.

5. Disconnect any other line/low voltage, accessory wire and ground leads from 

the existing ignition control.

6. Remove any screws and any other fasteners, and the old ignition board.

INSTALLATION

Install New Control:

1. Ground yourself properly before installing the new 

ICM2810 control board.

2. Mount the new control using any screws and fasteners previously removed.

3. Connect all line/low voltage, accessory, thermostat and ground wires.
4. Verify the sequence of operation.
