Gas-Fired. investment In light of rising energy costs, the Infinity Modulating Condensing Furnace today's homeowner can make. is among ICS the wisest Your new furnace is truly a triumph of technology in home heating. A revolutionary design employs two heat exchangers to maximize the amount of heat from the fuel consumed. In fact, your new furnace is so efficient, up to 95% _'of the heat generated during combustion is captured and delivered inside your home. That is more than a 33%* increase in heating efficiency over conventional furnaces. These are among the most energy-efficient furnaces you can buy today. They also are among the safest and most dependable. We are proud of the technological advances incorporated into the design of these furnaces. With only minimal care. your new furnace will deliver many years of money-saving home comfort and enjoyment. Spend just a few minutes with this manual to learn the operation of your new furnace and the small amount of maintenance it takes tn help keep it operating at peak efficiency year after year. *The output capacity and any representations of efficiency for this furnace are based on standard U,S.

Doing so may damage the furnace blower motor. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your furnace can cause a loss of efficiency. A05087 Fig. 19 - Removing Furnace Door A dirty air filter will cause a loss of airflow in your duct system. When excessive loss of airflow occurs, the furnace may cycle on its safety controls. If this condition is left unattended, the furnace will eventually lock out. It is recommended that the furnace air filter be checked eve_ 3 or 4 weeks and cleaned if necessa_.

Frequently Answers and Questions
How to change the air filter?
To change the air filter, you need to turn off the electrical supply to the furnace, remove the main furnace door or access panel, then remove the air filter. Install a new clean filter and reassemble the furnace. Make sure the airflow direction arrow points towards the blower.
What should I do if my furnace fails to operate?
Check the thermostat, fuses and circuit breakers. Verify that the thermostat is on and set to HEAT. Also, ensure that the manual shutoff valve in the gas supply pipe is in the open position. If the furnace still fails to operate, check for obstructions around the vent termination outside the structure and call your service representative.
How to winterize my furnace?
To winterize your furnace, you need to turn off the gas and electrical supply to the furnace, remove the main furnace door, remove the upper inducer housing and connect a 1/2-in. drain connection. Pour one quart of propylene glycol (RV/swimming pool antifreeze equivalent) into the drain connection. Replace the upper inducer housing and restart the furnace.
