CAUTION: HOT SURFACES. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. DO NOT TOUCH DURING OPERATION.
CAUTION:
• INSPECT FLUE PIPES, JOINTS AND SEALS REGULARLY TO ENSURE THAT SMOKE AND FLUE GASES ARE
NOT DRAWING INTO, AND ARE NOT BEING CIRCULATED BY THE AIR-CIRCULATION SYSTEM.
• CLEANING OF THE HEAT EXCHANGER, FLUE PIPE, CHIMNEY AND DRAFT INDUCER (IF USED), IS
ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT AT THE END OF THE HEATING SEASON TO MINIMIZE CORROSION DURING THE
SUMMER MONTHS CAUSED BY THE ACCUMULATED ASH.
• Never use chemicals or gasoline to start or maintain your fire.
• Do not burn oil, garbage, trash, plastic, or any fuel other than wood or coal in your furnace. Doing so will void the
warranty.
• DO NOT operate your furnace with the fuel bypass rod open; the handle must be pushed all the way in (except
when refueling).
• DO NOT leave the ash pan inside your furnace during operation.
WARNING: – RISK OF FIRE
• DO NOT operate with flue draft exceeding .08 water column inches (19.9 Pa).
• DO NOT store fuel or other combustible materials within marked installation clearances.
• Inspect and clean flues and chimney regularly.
• DO NOT operate your furnace with the fuel or ash doors open.
Canadian Requirements for Supplemental/Add-On Furnaces
• DO NOT USE DUCT ELBOWS HAVING AN INSIDE RADIUS OF LESS THAN 6 inches (150mm) ON OIL,
ELECTRIC, OR GAS FURNACES.
• DO NOT CONNECT TO A DOWNFLOW FURNACE.
• DO NOT CONNECT DUCTWORK SO THAT A REVERSE FLOW IS POSSIBLE.
• OPERATE THE GAS/OIL/ELECTRIC/ FURNACE PERIODICALLY TO ENSURE THAT IT WILL OPERATE
SATISFACTORILY WHEN NEEDED.
• CERTIFIED FOR INSTALLATION WITH APPROPRIATE DUCTWORK CONFIGURATIONS ONLY.
• DO NOT RELOCATE OR BYPASS ANY OF THE SAFETY CONTROLS IN THE ORIGINAL GAS/OIL/ELECTRIC
FURNACE INSTALLATION.
• DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY GAS FURNACE THAT HAS NOT BEEN CERTIFIED INITIALLY AS COMPLYING
WITH CAN/CGA-2.3.
• THE OPERATION OF THE GAS FURNACE MUST BE VERIFIED FOR ACCEPTABLE OPERATION BEFORE AND
AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE ADD-ON APPLIANCE BY A GAS FITTER WHO IS RECOGNIZED BY THE
REGULATORY AUTHORITY.
• DO NOT CONNECT TO ANY GAS FURNACE THAT IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR-CIRCULATION BLOWER,
OR TO A CHIMNEY OR VENT SERVICING A GAS FURNACE OR GAS APPLIANCE.
The add-on unit should only be installed on a furnace duct system and chimney that are in good operating condition.
On a belt-driven system, blower and motor pulleys may be changed but the electrical current flowing through the motor cannot exceed the
nameplate rating. On a direct-drive system, the motor should not be changed, however, the speed of the motor may be increased. The
blower cannot be changed. This equipment should be installed, acceptable to regulatory authority, by experienced licensed personnel.
The installation should comply with requirements of CAN/CSA-B365, and changes to the installation should comply with CSA-B139 (for
oil-fired), C22.1 (for electric), or CAN/CGA-B149.1 or CAN/CGA-B149.2 (for gas-fired).
