Leveling Legs (If Desired)
In upflow position with side return inlet(s), leveling legs may be used,
see
. Install field-supplied, 5/16 x 1-1/2 in. (8 x 38 mm) (max)
corrosion-resistant machine bolts, washers and nuts.
NOTE:
Bottom closure must be used when leveling legs are used. It
may be necessary to remove and reinstall bottom flash to install leveling
legs. To remove bottom closure panel, see
To install leveling legs:
1. Position furnace on its back. Locate and drill a hole in each bottom
corner of furnace.
2. For each leg, install nut on bolt and then install bolt with nut in
hole. (Install flat washer if desired.)
3. Install another nut on other side of furnace base. (Install flat washer
if desired.)
4. Adjust outside nut to provide desired height, and tighten inside nut
to secure arrangement.
5. Reinstall bottom closure panel if removed.

Location Relative to Cooling Equipment
The cooling coil must be installed parallel with, or on the downstream
side of the unit to avoid condensation in the heat exchangers. When
installed parallel with the furnace, dampers or other flow control must
prevent chilled air from entering the furnace. If the dampers are
manually operated, they must be equipped with means to prevent
operation of either unit unless the damper is in the full-heat or full-cool
position.
Platform Furnace Support
Construct working platform at location where all required furnace
clearances are met, see
and
. For furnaces with 1-in. (25
mm) clearance requirement on side, set furnace on non-combustible
blocks, bricks or angle iron. For crawlspace installations, if the furnace
is not suspended from the floor joists, the ground underneath furnace
must be level and the furnace set on blocks or bricks.
Suspended Furnace Support
The furnace must be supported under the entire length of the furnace
with threaded rod and angle iron, see
. Secure angle iron to
bottom of furnace as shown.
Roll-Out Protection
Provide a minimum 12-in. x 22-in. (305 x 559 mm) piece of sheet metal
for flame roll-out protection in front of burner area for furnaces closer
