FURNACE RELIABILITY HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in unit

component damage.
Application of this furnace should be indoors with

special attention given to vent sizing and material, gas

input rate, air temperature rise, unit leveling, and unit

sizing.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service,

maintenance, or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock,

or other conditions which may cause personal injury or property

damage. Consult a qualified service agency, local gas supplier,

or your distributor or branch for information or assistance. The

qualified installer or agency must use only factory

authorized

and listed kits or accessories when modifying this product.

Refer to the individual instructions packaged with the kits or

accessories when installing.
Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous

due to gas and electrical components. 

Only trained and

qualified personnel should install, repair, or service

heating equipment.

 Untrained personnel can perform basic

maintenance functions such as cleaning and replacing air

filters. All other operations must be performed by trained

service personnel. When working on heating equipment,

observe precautions in literature, on tags, and on labels

attached to or shipped with furnace and other safety

precautions that may apply.
These instructions cover minimum requirements and conform

to existing national standards and safety codes. In some

instances, these instructions exceed certain local codes and

ordinances, especially those that may not have kept up with

changing residential construction practices. We require these

instructions as a minimum for a safe installation.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses, protective

clothing, and work gloves. Have a fire extinguisher available.

Read these instructions thoroughly and follow all warnings or

cautions included in literature and attached to the unit.

CUT HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in personal

injury.
Sheet metal parts may have sharp edges or burrs. Use

care and wear appropriate protective clothing, safety

glasses and gloves when handling parts, and servicing

furnaces.

This is the safety

alert symbol 

. When you see this symbol

on the furnace and in instructions or manuals, be alert to the

potential for personal injury.
Understand the signal words 

DANGER

WARNING

, and

CAUTION

. These words are used with the safety

alert symbol.

DANGER

 identifies the most serious hazards which 

will 

result

in severe personal injury or death. 

WARNING

 signifies a

hazard which 

could 

result in personal injury or death.

CAUTION

 is used to identify hazards which 

may 

result in minor

personal injury or product and property damage. 

NOTE

 and

NOTICE

 are used to highlight suggestions which will result in

enhanced installation, reliability, or operation.

1. Use only with type of gas approved for this furnace.

Refer to the furnace rating plate.

2. Install this furnace only in a location and position as

specified in the “Location” section of these instructions.

3. Provide adequate combustion and ventilation air to the

furnace space as specified in “Air for Combustion and

Ventilation” section.

4. Combustion products must be discharged outdoors.

Connect this furnace to an approved vent system only,

as specified in the “Venting” section of these

instructions.

5. Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use a

commercially available soap solution made specifically

for the detection of leaks to check all connections, as

specified in the “Gas Piping” section.

6. Always install furnace to operate within the furnace’s

intended temperature

rise range with a duct system

which has an external static pressure within the

allowable range, as specified in the “Start

Up,

Adjustments, and Safety Check” section. See furnace

rating plate.

7. When a furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air

circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space

containing the furnace, the return air shall also be

handled by duct(s) sealed to the furnace casing and

terminating outside the space containing the furnace.

See “Air Ducts” section.

8. A gas

fired furnace for installation in a residential

garage must be installed as specified in the warning box

in the “Location” section. (See 

Figure 4

)

9. The furnace may be used for construction heat provided

that the furnace installation and operation complies with

the first CAUTION in the LOCATION section on page 7

of these instructions.

10. These Multipoise Gas

Fired Furnaces are CSA

design

certified for use with natural and propane gases

(see furnace rating plate) and for installation in alcoves,

attics, basements, closets, utility rooms, crawlspaces,

and garages. The furnace is factory

shipped for use

with natural gas. A CSA (A.G.A. and C.G.A.) listed
