MODELS, INSTALLATION SHALL BE MADE IN AC- CORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE LOCAL UTILITY, ANY OTHER AUTHORITIES HAVING JURISDICTION, OR WITH THE LATEST EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI 2223.1. FOR CANADA, INSTALLATIONS SHALL COMPLY WITH THE LATEST EDITION OF CAN/CGA-B149.1 & .2 INSTALLATION CODES, LOCAL PLUMBING OR WASTE WATER CODES, AND OTHER APPLICABLE LOCAL CODES. THESE UNITS ARE NOT CERTIFIED FOR USE IN MOBILE HOMES OR TRAVEL TRAILERS. THESE INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE PLACED ON OR NEAR THE FUR- NACE IN A CONSPICUOUS PLACE. GENERAL All models are suitable for closet or utility room installation. The fur- nace design is certified by the American Gas Association in com- pliance with the latest edition of American National Standard 221.47 Central Furnaces, and by the Canadian Gas Associalion in com- pliance with the latest edition of the National Standard of Canada CAN/CGA-2.3 Gas-Fired Gravity and Forced Air Central Furnaces, for operation with natural gas or propane gas. Consult the rating plate on your furnace for gas type before installing. The maximum hourly heat loss of each heated space shall be calculated in accordance with the procedure described in the cur- rent manuals of Air Conditioning Contractors of America, or by any other recognized method which is suitable for local conditions, pro- vided the results obtained are in substantial agreement with, and not less than, those obtained using the procedure described in the manuals. If the furnace is used in conjunction with a cooling unit, the furnace must be installed in parallel with, or on the upstream side of the evaporator coil to avoid condensation on the heating ele- ment. In a parallel installation, dampers or other means must be provided to prevent chilled air from entering the furnace. If the air control is manually operated, an interlock must be provided to pre- vent operation of either unit unless the dampers are in full heat or full cool position. UNPACKING FURNACE 1$ SHIPPED IN ONE PACKAGE COMPLETELY ASSEM- BLED AND WIRED EXCEPT FOR THE DRAIN TRAP ASSEMBLY. See Figure 3 for installation. The thermostat is shipped in a separate carton when ordered. If any damage is found at time of delivery, proper notation should be made on the carrier's freight bill. Damage claims should be filed with the carrier at once. Claims of shortages should be filed with the seller within five (5) days. Check the rating plate. Make sure correct model has been received. LOCATION To provide proper operation and satisfactory performance, care must be taken in choosing the location for this furnace. The at- if mosphere in which the furnace operates must be free of con- taminants such as chlorides and sulfates. The furnace shall be installed so the electrical components are pro- tected from water. The furnace should be well centralized with respect to the duct distribution system and set on a firm, level foundation. A gas-fired furnace for installation in a residential garage must be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source are located not less than 18 inches above the floor and that the furnace is located or protected to avoid physical damage by vehicles. CARE MUST ALSO BE GIVEN IN CHOOSING A LOCATION SO THAT CON- DENSATE TRAP AND DRAIN LINE DO NOT FREEZE. All normal servicing of the furnace can be performed from the front. If installed in a closet or utility room provide 27 inches clearance in front for service if the door to the room is not in line with the front of the furnace. The opening to the room must be wide enough to allow the furnace to enter and to permit the replacement of any other ap- pliance in the room. The furnace may be installed in a closet provided the following minimum clearances to combustible materials are maintained. The furnace is not to be installed directly on carpeting, tile or other com- bustible material other than a wooden floor. Clearance for the cabinet are as follows: Sides - O inches; Rear - O inches; Front - 4 inches; Flue Pipe - 0 inches; Plenum Top - 1 inch. The counterflow furnace is certified for installation on combustible flooring provided a special base assembly is used. The part number for the special base is noted on the rating plate, located in the burner compartment. Check the part number on the base to make sure the proper base is available. When counterflow unit is installed on a combustible floor, one (1) inch clearance must be provided between supply duct and floor. ACCESSIBILITY CLEARANCES MUST TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER FIRE PROTECTION CLEARANCES. PROVIDE SUFFICIENT CLEARANCE FOR CONDENSATE DRAIN TRAP. CAUTION: DO NOT STORE COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS NEAR FUR- NACE OR WARM AIR DUCTS. THE MATERIAL MAY IGNITE BY SPONTANEDUS COMBUSTION CREATING A FIRE HAZARD. OUTLET DUCT For Canadian units the outlet duct must provide a removable access panel. The opening should be accessible when the furnace is installed in service. Smoke or reflected light may be observed inside the casing to indicate the presence of leaks in the heat exchanger. The cover for the opening shall be attached in such a manner as to prevent leaks. The recommended opening size is 6” x 14” for all sizes. DUCT CONNECTION—COUNTERFLOW MODELS If a unit is installed on a non-combustible floor, unit may be installed directly over supply duct or plenum. If installation is made on a combustible floor, the special base assembly must be used. Cut hole on floor two (2) inches larger in each direction than duct size. Part No. 39518H092 Date 8-15-92 Supersedes 395186092 Page 3 of 13 The four angles on the base assembly should recess into floor open- ings and base should rest on all four outside flanges. Construct duct connections with 1% inch - 2 inch right angle flanges and long enough to extend below floor joists. Drop duct connections through top of base assembly with right angle flanges in good contact with glass lape on top of base assembly. Carefully position furnace over right angle duct flanges. See View A. A return air duct system is recommended. If the unit is installed in a confined space or closet, a return connection must be run, full size, to a location outside the closet. The air duct in the closet must be tight ‚to prevent any entrance of air from the closet into the circulating air.

When considering combustion air requirements, enough air must also be provided to meet the need of all fuel-burning appliances and exhaust fans. UNCONFINED SPACE Ап unconlined space is defined as ''a space whose volume 15 more than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour of the combined input rating of all appliances installed in that space.” In a furnace installed in a ventilated attic or craw! space, it is assumed that infiltration is sufficient to supply the required air. However, in a building of unusually tight construction, additional ouldoor air should be provided. CONFINED SPACE A confined space is defined as ''a space whose volume is less than 90 cubic feet per 1,000 BTU per hour of the combined input rating of all appliances installed in that space.” Adequate provisions for combustion air, ventilation of furnace and dilution of the gases must be made. See Section 5.3, Air for Com- ‚ bustion and Ventilation of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 latest edition, Canadian Standards CAN/CGA-B149.1 & .2 or ap- plicable provisions of the local building code. When a furnace is in- - stalled in an unconfined space in a building, it can be assumed that filtration will be sufficient to supply the required air. If the furnace is installed in a confined space within the building and combustion air is taken from the heated space, the combustion air and ventilating air must enter and leave the space through two (2) permanent open- ings of equal area. One (1) opening shall be located within twelve (12) inches of the ceiling and the other within twelve (12) inches of the floor, each having a free area on one (1) square inch per 1,000 BTU/HR of total input rating of all appliances within the space and not less than 100 square inches each. If the furnace is installed in a space within a building of tight construction, make-up air must be supplied from outdoors. In this case one (1) opening shall be within twelve (12) inches of the ceiling and one (1) opening within twelve (12) inches of the floor. Each opening shall have a free area of one (1) square inch per 4,000 BTU/HR if combustion air ducts are ver- tical. If horizontal combustion air ducts are run, one (1) Square inch per 2,000 BTH/HR of the total input rating of all appliances within the enclosure is required. WARNING—COMBUSTION AIR OPENING MUST BE KEPT FREE OF OBSTRUCTIONS. ANY OBSTRUCTION MAY CAUSE IMPROPER BURNER OPERATION AND MAY RESULT IN A FIRE HAZARD OR PERSONAL INJURY. CONTAMINATED COMBUSTION AIR The recommended source of combustion air is to use outdoor air. However, the use of indoor air in most applications is acceptable if these guidelines are followed: 1. li the furnace is installed in a confined space, the necessary combustion air must come from the outdoors by way of attic, crawl space, air duct, or direct opening. 2. If indoor combustion air option is used, there must be no ex- posure to the installations or substances listed below. 3. All provisions for indoor combustion air must meet the re- quirements for combustion air supply indicated in the National Fuel Gas Code, 2223.1 latest edition, Section 5.3, and/or any applicable local codes. In Canada, follow the current edition of the B149.1 or .2, Installation code for combustion air requirements. 4. The following types of installation will require OUTDOOR AIR tor combustion, due to chemical exposures: ° Commercial buildings ° Buildings with indoor pools 2 Furnaces installed in laundry rooms ° Furnaces installed in hobby or cralt rooms. ° Furnaces installed near chemical storage areas. Exposure to the following substances in the combustion air supply will also require OUTDOOR AIR for combustion: ° Permanent wave solutions ° Chlorinated waxes and cleaners ° Chlorine based swimming pool chemicals ° Water softening chemicals ° De-icing salts or chemicals _ 2 Carbon tetrachloride Halogen type refrigerants Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene) Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc. Hydrochloric acid Cements and glues ° Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers ° Masonry acid washing materials o © 0 0 0 Part No. 39518H092 Date 8-15-92 Supersedes 39518G092 * Page 4 of 13 _ RETURN AIR AND FILTER RACK UPFLOW (See Figure 1) Where the furnace is installed in a confined space and there is not a complete return duct system, a return duct must be run to an un- confined area. The air duct must be tight to prevent any entrance of air from the confined space into the circulating air stream. For upflow furnaces return air connection can be made on either side or the bottom of the furnace. A filter and an external filter rack are provided for side return (see instructions below for installation). If bottom return is used, a filter and rack of the proper size should be provided. Models with higher CFM requiring filter areas over 400 square inches, may be installed with return air connections on both sides, or an external filter rack, with a required filter area, must be used. Refer to product specifications. A side return air cabinet is also available, the use of which can improve the appearance of the installation. INSTALLATION EXTERNAL SIDE FILTER RACK This furnace comes equipped with a filter rack or racks which are located in the blower compartment. To install filter assemblies, the following steps must be taken: 1. Cut a 14 inches high by 22 inches wide opening in side or sides of cabinet, using the lanced corners as locating points. 2. Loosen the four (4) screws at the base of the side panel. 3. Slide the outer flange of filter frame into base and rear panel flange. 4.

The removal of the latent heat results in the condensation of moisture from the flue gases. This condensation occurs in the secondary heat exchanger and also in the vent system; therefore the following special considerations and instructions must be followed to assure “the proper venting of this furnace and other appliances. All venting must be in accordance with codes having jurisdiction and these in- Stallation instructions. This is a Category IV Furnace (USA) The furnace shall not be connected to any type B, BW, or L vent or vent connector and shall not be connected to any portion of a factory built or masonry chimney. Do not use more than five (5) 90° elbows, DWV/PVC (Poly-Vinyl- Chloride), excluding vent termination. Two (2) 45° elbows are equal to one (1) 90° elbow. | Do not vent this appliance into a masonry chimney or any other type of vent passage not designed or intended for use with condensating appliances. Part No. 39918H092 Date 8-15-92 Supersedes 395186092 Page _9 of _13 Do not connect the flue system of this appliance to a common vent with any other appliance. When replacing a furnace which has been connected to a common vent with other appliances the remaining vent system and ap- pliances should be inspected and evaluated for proper operation. When an existing furnace is removed from a venting system serving other appliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to pro- perly vent the remaining attached appliances. The following steps shall be followed with each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system placed in operation, while the other appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are not in operation. (a) Seal any unused openings in the common venting system. (b) Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizon- tal pitch and determine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows and all doors between the space in which the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces of the building. Turn on clothes dryer and any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on any ex- haust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at a maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers. Follow the lighting instructions. Place the appliance being in- spected in operation. Adjust thermostat so appliance will operate continuously. (e) Test for spillage at the draft hood relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle. (f) After it has been determined that each appliance remaining con- nected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows, exhaust fans, fireplace dampers and any other gas-burning appliance to their ‘previous conditions of use. (9) If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the common venting system must be corrected. See National Fuel Gas Code ANSI 7223.1 latest edition, Cana- dian Standards CAN/CGA-B149.1 & .2 latest edition, to correct improper operation of common venting system. (с =” —. E ut Vent Materials Five (5) items are supplied with this furnace. 1. А neoprene connecting clamp for connecting the vent system to the combustion blower assembly. 2. A trap assembly to collect the condensate from the heat ex- changer and vent system. 3. А two (2) inch vent tee is provided to be connected to the drain trap assembly. 4.

In addition to Ihe above listed items, on the 100,000 BTUH model a 3 to 2 inch reducing coupling is furnished to be located on top of the drain trap tee for a 3 inch vent line. All other venting materials, pipe and fittings, for this furnace are to be two (2) inch or three (3) inch PVC (Poly-Vinyl Chloride) or CPVC (Chlorinated Poly-Vinyl Chloride) schedule 40 minimum. NOTE: IN- STALLATION OF 100,000 BTU FURNACE MUST BE DONE WITH THREE (3) INCH VENT PIPE OF THE SAME RATING. Elbows used to connect vertical runs to horizontal runs should be the type DWV/PVC (Poly-Viny! Chloride) to provide the correct slope for horizontal runs. Horizontal runs should not be allowed to sag as water may collect in low spots and cause blocked flue switch to open. In areas where flue pipe may be subject to abnormal stress or damage, schedule 80 PVC pipe should be used or protection must be provided for the flue pipe. . All joints are to be sealed using a PVC sealer-primer and a Solvent cement such as Genova 15015 or equivalent. Follow all instructions and recommendations of the cleaner-primer and solvent cement manufacturer when making joints. All pipe, fittings, primers, solvent cement and procedures must conform to the following ANSI-ASTM standards. PVC pipe and fittings shall be manufactured from compounds hav- ing a minimum cell classification of 12454B or 12454C as defined by ASTM Standard D1784, Rigid Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Com- pounds and Chlorinated Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (CPVC) compounds; or CPVC pipe and fittings shall be manufactured from compounds having a minimum cell classification of 23447A or 23447B as defin- ed by ASTM Standard D1784. Vent termination for horizontal venting through side wall must be a two (2) or three (3) inch PVC elbow oriented with opening to the bot- tom. USE THREE (3) INCH ELBOW FOR THE 100,000 BTU FUR- NACE. The opening in the vent termination should be protected with 2 inch mesh screen. See Figure 5 for further description. VENT LENGTH This appliance is certified for use with a maximum of 25 feet of horizontal vent length with 5 elbows (for a total equivalent length of 90 feet) not including the vent terminator. The minimum length cer- tified is 3 feet and one elbow. Elbows are equivalent to 5 feet of Straight length vent pipe. Thus, 5 feet of vent pipe can be added or removed for each elbow deleted or added to fabricate the total max- imum allowable 50 foot length: Examples: 30 feet of pipe and 4 elbows: 20 feet of pipe and 6 elbows. Part No. 39518H092 Date____8-15-92 Supersedes Page 6 of _13 39518G092 Vent Termination Location Vertical vents should extend through the roof a minimum of two (2) feet and should not be obstructed for a minimum of ten (10) feet in any direction. The horizontal vent system shall terminate at least 4 feet below, 4 feet horizontally from, or 1 foot above any door, window, or gravity air inlet into the building. The vent system shall terminate at least 3 feet above any forced air inlet located within 10 feet. The bottom of the vent terminal shall be located at least 12 inches above grade, minimum of 12 inches above normal snow level. Minimum horizontal clearance of 4 feet (6 feet in Canada) from elec- tric meters, regulators, and relief equipment or within six (6) feet of any gas service regulator vent outlet except that with the approval of the authority having jurisdiction. In addition to the above requirements, consideration must be given to prevent unwanted ice buildup from the vent condensate. The vent should not be located on the side of a building where the prevailing winter winds could trap the moisture causing it to freeze on the walls or on overhangs (under eaves). The vent location should not discharge over a sidewalk, patio or other walkway, where the con- densate could cause surface to become slippery. installation Connect the vent system and drain trap assembly to the outlet of the combustion air blower using the supplied neoprene connecting clamp and a supplied two (2) inch tee. The trap assembly must be readily accessible for cleaning and in the same confined space with the furnace. For additional clearance to cold air return or other obstacles a two (2) inch street elbow may be used to move drain assembly toward the front of the unit. See Figure 3.

Use a leak detecting solution or other preferred means. CAUTION - Some soaps used for leak detection are corrosive to cer- tain metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after leak detection has been completed. Do not use matches, candles, flame or other sources of ignition to check for gas leaks. Part No. 39518H092 Dale 8-15-92 395186092 _ Page 8 ot 13 supersedes The furnace must be isolated from the gas-supply piping system by closing individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of gas-supply piping system at test pressure equal to or less than ‘2 PSIG or 14” W.C. CAUTION: IF THE PIPING SYSTEM IS TO BE TESTED AT PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF ‘2 PSIG, THE FURNACE AND ITS INDIVIDUAL SHUTOFF VALVE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE GAS-SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM. THE GAS VALVE SUP- PLIED WITH THIS FURNACE IS RATED АТ ‘2 PSIG MAXIMUM. ANY HIGHER PRESSURE MAY RUPTURE THE PRESSURE-REGULATOR DIAPHRAGM AND WILL CAUSE OVER-FIRING OF THE BURNERS AND IMPROPER BURNER OPERATION. THE OVER-FIRING MAY RESULT IN CREATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE WHICH MAY RESULT IN ASPHYXIATION. FURNACE CHECK-OUT Before leaving, the installer should make the following checks to en- sure that the controls are functioning properly. Gas Supply Pressure The gas pressure measured al manual shutoff valve (Reference Figure 6), installed external to the unit, must fall within the follow- ing standards. MINIMUM NOMINAL MAXIMUM Natural Gas 5 7 9 Propane Gas 11 12 14 This check should be performed both with no gas appliance operating and with all gas appliances operating. Large variations between these two checks can be caused by improper supply piping or a defective regulator. Gas Regulator Gas input must never exceed the input capacity shown on the rating plate. The furnace is equipped for rated inputs with manifold pressure as follows: NATURAL GAS 3.5” W.C. PROPANE GAS 10” W.C. The manifold pressure can be measured by removing the piping plug in the downstream side of the gas valve and connecting a water manometer or gauge. Turn gas valve ON. To adjust the regulator, turn the adjusting screw on the regulator clockwise to increase pressure and input, counterclockwise to decrease pressure and input. Only small variations in gas input may be made by adjusting the regulator. In no case should the final manifold pressure vary more than 0.3” W.C. from the above specified pressures. Check furnace rate by observing gas meter, making sure all other gas appliances are turned off. The test hand on the meter should be timed for at least one revolution. Note the number of seconds for one revolution. = a BTU/HR. INPUT EQUALS - Cubic feet per revolution No. seconds per revolution x 3600 x Heating Value The heating value of your gas can be obtained from your local utility company. HIGH ALTITUDE For U.S.A. Installations Only: Ratings shown on the rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet. For elevations above 2,000 feet, ratings should be reduced at a rate of four (4) percent for each 1,000 feet above sea level. See Na- tional Fuel Gas Code 2223.1 (latest edition). FOR CANADIAN INSTALLATIONS: For elevations from 2000 - 4500 feet above sea level a 10% drop in rate is required from that shown for 0 -2000 feet.

BLOWER SPEEDS All blower motors are permanently lubricated. To change blower speeds, use the following procedure: 1-Turn off electrical power to unit. 2-Refer to the wiring diagram and connect the desired speed tap for cooling and heating on the blower control board. Remaining speed laps must be connected to dummy terminals. (M1, M2). If you must use the same speed tap for both heating and cooling, install a piggyback terminal on the speed tap using a short jumper wire with 1/4” quick connect terminals on both ends to jumper the HEAT and COOL speed on the blower control board. Direct-drive blowers contain motors which do not require oiling. To remove blower for servicing or replacement, disconnect electrical power. Remove blower door. Blower is fastened to blower division panel. Remove these screws and lift out blower assembly (counterflows) or slide out (upflows). When removing blower assembly, the electrical leads must be disconnected at the control board or the motor terminal block. LIMIT CONTROL Limit control - Factory Set: No adjustment necessary. FAN CONTROL The fan on time of 30 seconds is not adjustable. Fan off time (time that blower operates after the heat demand has been satisfied) can be adjusted by one of two methods depending on the blower control board manufacturer. Change the direction of either [A] screw ог [В] screw to give the desired timing as shown below or move the delay off jumper to the desired timing. The unit is shipped with factory fan off setting of 120 seconds. Fan off time will affect comfort and is ad- justable to satisfy individual application.

Roll-Out Switch This furnace is equipped with a manual reset roll-out switch for the purpose of preventing furnace operation with a blocked heat ex- changer, or under other abnormal conditions that would cause burner flames to burn outside the combustion chamber. To manual- ly reset this switch, push and release the button on top. If the fur- nace does not operate, or if this switch must repeatedly be reset, call a Service Technician. MAINTENANCE It is recommended that this furnace be inspected by a qualified Ser- vice Technician at the beginning of each heating season. Disconnect electrical power to the unit before doing any service. Turn off main gas valve before breaking gas connections. Furnace Start-Up and Check-Out Procedure After maintenance has been performed or the heat exchanger clean- ed and re-assembled, the following checks should be performed. FILL TRAP WITH WATER, turn unit on, check the contro! operating pressure and flame appearance when main blower is cycled on and off. Any fluctuation in this pressure or variation in flame appearance are an indication of air leakage between the circulating air compart- ment and heat exchangers. The source of the leakage must be found and repaired. Control operating pressure is measured at the pressure tap directly above the coil drain connection. Install a tee to allow the pressure switches to remain connected. Normal pressure is negative 1.40 to negative 1.60 inch water column. The normally open pressure switch will remain open if pressure is excessively low (excessive leakage or blocked flue). If pressure is excessively high (restricted coil or plugged coil drain) flame roll-out will occur and roll-out switch will open. Filter The air filter should be cleaned at least every three (3) months. More frequent service is required if unusually dirty conditions are encountered. This unit is supplied with a permanent filter. To clean this filter, shake filter to remove excess dirt, use vacuum cleaner or wash in soapy or detergent water and replace after filter is dry. Filter should not be oiled after washing. If electronic air cleaner or other filter media has been installed, clean per the manufacturers instructions. Part No. 39518H092 Date 8-15-92 Supersedes 395186092 Page 11 of 13 Blower TO CLEAN Installation is to be adjusted to obtain a temperature rise within the range specified on the appliance rating plate. The direct drive blower in this unit will provide an air temperature rise at a static pressure as noted on the rating plate. If a duct system with less resistance is used, a lower air temperature will result. To increase the air temperature rise, add restriction to the return air system. The direct drive motors have permanently lubricated bearings and therefore do not require oiling. On the upflow furnace, the blower can be removed for servicing by remov- ing screws under burners in the blower partition panel. The blower will slide out on side supporting rails. Main Burners (See Figure 7 for visual view) Distorted flame, yellow tipping of the natural gas main burner flame or more than 1/8 inch high yellow tips on propane gas may be caused by lint accumulation or dirt inside burner or burner ports, lint at air inlet between air shutter and manifold pipe or obstruction over main burner orifice. Use soft brush or vacuum to clean allected areas. If it is necessary lo remove burners: 1. Turn off gas supply and electrical supplies to furnace. 2. Remove pilot assembly, disconnecting sensor lead and ignition lead from ignition control. 3. Remove burner support angles (2). 4. Push burner assembly forward, off of orifice spuds and then remove burner assembly. Reassemble, reverse above procedure. an Primary Heat Exchanger—Cleaning To clean flue passages, proceed as follows: 1. Turn off gas supply and electricity. Remove screws fastening flue plate and flue plate gasket. If flue plate has holes in any sur- face or flue plate gasket is damaged, replace with new flue plate and gasket when unit is reassembled. 2. Remove the screws securing the burner shield located above burners. 3. Remove four (4) screws that secure manifold assembly to the in- ner front panel. Break union in gas piping and remove burners and manifold assembly as unit. 4. Clean flue passages with wire brush and vacuum cleaner. 3. After cleaning, inspect heat exchanger for deterioration. If any holes or cracks are observed in any surface of heat exchanger, replace with new heat exchanger. Inspect burners and clean, if required. Reassemble parts removed in reverse order. Turn on gas. Check for leaks. Turn on electrical supply. Check unit for normal operation per Furnace Start-Up and Check-Out Procedure. = = io Secondary Heat Exchanger (Exterior) Remove rear panel to clean bottom of fins. || rear panel cannot be readily removed, remove blower assembly for accessibility to coil (applies to upflow only). Clean fins with suitable brush or vacuum cleaner attachment. If any fins are damaged, use a fin comb to straighten. Secondary Heat Exchanger Internal Cleaning and Removal 1. Remove top front collector plate cover. 2. Inspect inside of upper collector box and tube inlets for soot and/or dirt accumulation. 3. If cleaning is needed, fashion a.1/4 inch or 3/8 inch tube ex- tension with a 90° curved end. Adapt other end for connection to a garden hose or garden sprayer. 4. Insert curved end of adapter tube, center over each tube and flush with water. Remove bottom cap from trap assembly and place a suitable container under the trap to collect water flush- ed through cells. If further cleaning is required, the secondary heat exchanger sur- face must be removed from the furnace, proceed as follows: 5. Remove rear panel. 6. Remove the combustion air blower assembly, drain tubing and connecting tubing for pressure switches. 7. Remove four (4) nuts that secure top coil box to primary heat exchanger collector box and the screw in the embossed hole above flue outlet in the inner-front panel. 8. Remove four (4) screws from left side panel that secure lower section of secondary heat exchanger to this panel. 9. Remove secondary heat exchanger out the rear of the unit. . Remove screws that secure top box to coil. 11. Remove turbulators from each tube and any contaminants from the turbulators. 12. Use a small diameter bottle brush to clean the inside of each tube. | 13. Rinse each tube with clear water. 14. If bottom coil box drain becomes blocked, remove screws that secure box to bottom coil. Glean pan and replace. To assure gas tight seal, add a 1/4 diameter bead of GE RTV106 sealant around flange of pan before assembly to coil. 15. Install turbulators in each tube. 16. Apply 1/4 diameter bead of GE RTV106 high temperature sealant around top flange of coil plate. Add top coil box and secure box to coil plale. 17. If silicone gasket on front of top coil box is damaged, add a new gasket or apply a ring of 1/4 diameter bead of RTV106 before attaching coil box to heat exchanger collector box, using four (4) nuts previously removed. Supersedes 39518G092 Page 12 of 18 18. Install combustion air blower, tubing and collector cover and reassemble furnace. 19. Check unit for normal unit operation per Furnace Start-Up and Check-Out Procedures. Removal of Primary Heat Exchanger should it be necessary to remove primary heal exchanger proceed as follows: + 1. Remove secondary heat exchanger as described above. 2. Remove manifold and burners as described under cleaning Durners. 3. Remove screws that secure inner front panel to heat exchanger and slide oul heat exchanger carefully to avoid damage to in- Sulation. Before replacing heat exchanger, repair any damaged insulation with aluminum foil tape. Sequence of Operation—Spark Ignition 1. When thermostat calls for heat, the combustion blower is energized. When proper combustion air is proven, the normally open pressure switch closes supplying power to the ignition control. The electric spark and pilot valve are then energized to produce a pilot flame. 2. The sensing probe proves the presence of the pilot flame and internal switching action de-energizes the spark. 3. The sensor will cause contacts on the ignition control to close energizing the main gas valve solenoid, causing the main valve to open and ignition occurs. The sparking circuit is discon- nected assuring that the main burner(s) can never be ignited by the electric spark. 4.. If the pilot Нате goes out for any reason, it will automatically reset and will repeat normal start-up operation.
