System Operation

With this twinning accessory kit, it is important to 

understand upon a call for heat from a single thermostat, 

that both circulation air blowers will come on and go off 

at the same time. In addition, the induced draft blowers 

of both furnaces will be energized, the pressure switch of 

each furnace will close, the gas valve of each furnace will 

open (either high or low fire depending on furnaces), and 

the burners of each furnace will ignite. Thirty seconds later, 

both circulation air blowers will be energized.

When the heat demand is satisfied, the heating relays of 

each furnace are de-energized and close each furnace’s 

gas valve. Both furnace circulation air blowers will continue 

to run until the blower off fan period has been met.
•  Single-stage furnaces twinned together with a single-

stage thermostat will operate each furnace at the 

same time.

•  Two-stage furnaces twinned together with a two-stage 

thermostat  will  operate  each  furnace  such  that  first 

stage heat of each furnace operates at the same time. 

When second stage heat demand is needed, both 

furnaces will transition to high heat at the same time.

•  Two-stage furnaces twinned together with a single-

stage thermostat will utilize control boards 7.5/10 min. 

stage transition. Each furnace 

must be

 set to same 

setting.

Installation

To  twin  two  gas-fired  furnaces,  follow  these  directions 

along with the appropriate application section and wiring 

schematic.

Single-Stage Heating and Cooling with Single-Stage 

Thermostat

1.  Mount DPST relay(s) (supplied with kit) next to the 

blower control board of Furnace 1. Use kit supplied 

self-tapping screws to mount DPST relay(s) to the 

control bracket.

2.  Connect the thermostat with Furnace 1, Furnace 2, 

and the DPST relay as shown in Figure 1 through 

Figure 3. Use the female quick connect terminals 

supplied in kit and the proper length of 18 gauge wire 

(field supplied) to complete wiring.

3.  After wiring is complete, cycle both heating and cooling 

modes to verify both are working properly.
