Rounded End of Knockout

For the knockouts in the other locations on the door (top and
sides), tin snips can also be used along the door edges; however,

the preferred method is to use a hammer and screwdriver to strike
a sharp blow (See Fig. 31.) directly to the knockout tie points or

use a hammer in the upper left corner of the desired knockout.
(See Fig. 32.) Remove all burrs and sharp edges.

BURN HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may cause personal injury.
Hot vent pipe is within reach of small children when

installed in downflow position.

See the following instruction.

CAUTION

!

An accessory Vent Guard Kit, KGAVG0101DFG is REQUIRED
for downflow applications for use where the vent exits through

the lower portion of the furnace casing door. Refer to the Vent

Guard Kit Instructions for complete details.
The horizontal portion of the venting system shall slope upwards

not less than 1/4--in. per linear ft. (21 mm/m) from the furnace to
the vent and shall be rigidly supported every 5 ft. or less with

metal hangers or straps to ensure there is no movement after
installation.

SIDEWALL VENTING

This furnace is not approved for direct sidewall horizontal

venting.

In the U.S.:

Per section 12.4.3.1 of the NFGC, any listed

mechanical venter may be used, when approved by the authority

having jurisdiction.

In Canada:

Per section 7.24.2 of the NSCNGPIC, any listed

venters may be used, when approved by the authority having

jurisdiction. Select the listed mechanical venter to match the Btuh
input of the furnace being vented. Follow all manufacturer’s

installation requirements for venting and termination included
with the listed mechanical venter.
