be installed in the floor cavity and attached to the supply
air duct before the furnace is installed.
Locating & Cutting Duct Openings
Floor cut-outs and fuel line holes must be carefully located
to avoid misalignment of the furnace, and vent piping. To
locate standard ducts see Figure 7 (page 8). For round
ducts, see Figure 8 (page 8).
1. Measure 10” from the rear wall or alcove and mark the
centerline of the cut-out on the floor.
2. Using the centerline as a starting point, draw the
rest of the duct cut-out to the dimensions shown in
Figure 7 or Figure 8.
3. Cut out the floor opening 1/16” larger than the actual
cutout drawn. This will allow some clearance when
installing the duct connector.
4. Measure from the top of the floor down to the top of the
supply air duct to obtain the depth of the floor cavity.
NOTE: The depth of the floor cavity shown as “X” in
Figure 10 (page 8) will determine the correct duct
connector.
5. Determine which duct connector to use from Table 2,
(page 9).
6. Measure and drill gas hole and cut out for cooling coil
(if applicable). See Figure 7 or Figure 8.
Standard Duct Connector Installation

bottom tabs resting on top of the supply air duct.
2. Mark the cut-out area on the supply air duct by tracing
around the connector tabs of the duct connector. See
Figure 9 (page 8).
3. Remove the duct connector and cut out the marked
area of the supply air duct 1/4” larger the actual cutout
drawn.
4. Install the duct connector back in the floor opening with
the bottom tabs extending into the supply air duct.
5. Install the optional mounting plate under the back side
of the duct connector as shown in Figure 9. Align the
screw holes in both components.
6. Secure the duct connector and the mounting plate to
the wood floor with appropriate size screws.
7. Bend the connector tabs on the bottom of the duct
connector upwards and as tight as possible against
the supply air duct.
8. Bend both tabs up 90° on the mounting plate. See
Figure 11 (page 8).
9. Seal all connections with industrial grade sealing tape or
liquid sealant. See HUD Code 3280.715 for acceptable
standards for tape and sealants.
NOTE: Requirements for sealing ductwork vary
from region to region. Consult with local codes for
requirements specific to your area.
Alternate Attachment Method
The standard duct connector is designed for use on ducts
12” in width. However if there is insufficient clearance to
bend the duct connector tabs, this alternate attachment
10
method may be used.
1. Score and cut the top of the supply air duct as indicated
in Option 1 or Option 2. See Figure 12 (page 8). NOTE:
If Option 1 is selected, cut out the metal from the shaded
area.
2. Fold the two flaps (Options 1 or 2) up to form the opening
for the duct connector.
3. Install the duct connector with the bottom tabs extending
into the supply air duct.
4. Bend the tabs on the bottom of the duct connector
upwards and as tight as possible against the supply
air duct. See Figure 13 (page 8).
5. Form the flaps (Options 1 or 2) up against the duct
connector as tight as possible.
6. Secure the duct connector flaps to the supply air duct
with staples (3 minimum) or if a 2x block/joist is not
provided, use sheet metal screws (2 minimum).
NOTE: The duct connector tabs may be attached to
the air duct with sheet metal screws or other suitable
fasteners as long as the duct connector and the air duct
are securely attached.
7. Seal all connections with industrial grade sealing tape
or liquid sealant.
NOTE: Requirements for sealing ductwork vary
from region to region. Consult with local codes for
requirements specific to your area.
Round Duct Connector Installation
1. Apply a bead of caulking, mastic, or other approved
sealant around bottom side of connector.
2. Install and center the duct connector in the floor opening.
3. Install the mounting plate under the back side of the
duct connector. See Figure 14 (page 9). NOTE: Align
the screw holes in both components.

Low Voltage Wiring
• The furnace is designed to be controlled by a 24 VAC
thermostat. The thermostat’s wiring must comply with
the current provisions of the NEC (ANSI/NFPA 70) and
with applicable local codes having jurisdiction.
• The thermostat must be installed according to the
instructions supplied by the thermostat manufacturer.
Low voltage connections (24 VAC) from the thermostat
are wired to the terminal strip on the integrated control
in the furnace.
• The thermostat should be mounted about 5 feet above
the floor on an inside wall. DO NOT install the thermostat
on an outside wall or any other location where its
operation may be adversely affected by radiant heat from
fireplaces, sunlight, or lighting fixtures, and convective
heat from warm air registers or electrical appliances.
Refer to the thermostat manufacturer’s instruction sheet
for detailed mounting information.
• The nominal anticipator setting is 0.4. Refer to the
thermostat literature for additional information.
• Best practice is to use five-wire conductor thermostat
wire for 24 volt low-voltage circuit (2-wire is required
for furnace only; 5-wire for heating and optional cooling
systems). Refer to Table 6, (page 15) for thermostat
wire information.
pigtails (dependent on the installation application). See
Figure 26 and Figure 27 (page 14). NOTE: If AC is
installed with the furnace, a Y connection is required
to be made at the furnace. See Figure 33 (page 27)
and Figure 34 (page 28).
3. Connect low-voltage circuit to the wall thermostat.
4. A hole may be made in the furnace cabinet to ease
thermostat wiring. Make sure that the wiring is protected
from the sharp edge of the added hole.
Verifying Anticipator Setting
After the furnace is installed, check the thermostat
anticipator against the nominal setting of 0.4.
1. Connect the milliamp meter in series with one of the
gas valve’s low voltage terminals.
2. Energize the gas valve.
3. Read the value of the milliamps.
4. Adjust the heat anticipator of the thermostat to the
value on the milliamp meter. If the heat anticipator is
set too high, the furnace may delay turning on. If set too
low, the furnace may cycle frequently and not provide
comfort to the homeowner.
Grounding
WARNING:
To minimize personal injury, the furnace cabinet
must have an uninterrupted or unbroken electrical
ground. The controls used in this furnace require
an earth ground to operate properly. Acceptable
methods include electrical wire or conduit
approved for ground service. Do not use gas
piping as an electrical ground!

Leak Check
WARNING:
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death or property
damage.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame.
Use a commercially available soap solution
made specifically for the detection of leaks
to check all connections. A fire or explosion
may result causing property damage, personal
injury or loss of life.
AVERTISSEMENT :
RISQUE D’INCENDIE OU D’EXPLOSION
Le non-respect des avertissements de sécurité pourrait
entraîner des blessures graves ou des dommages matériels
importants.
N’effectuez jamais d’essai d’étanchéité des gaz avec une
flamme nue. Utilisez une solution savonneuse offerte sur
le marché conçue spécialement pour la détection des
fuites pour vérifier tous les raccordements. Un incendie ou
une explosion pourrait survenir et causer des dommages
matériels, des blessures ou des pertes de vie.
After the gas piping to the furnace is complete, all
connections must be tested for gas leaks. This includes all
fittings, pipe connections at the main gas valve, emergency
shutoff valve, and flexible gas connectors (if applicable).
The soap and water solution can be applied on each
joint or union using a small paintbrush. If any bubbling is
observed, the connection is not sealed adequately and
must be retightened. Repeat the tightening and soap
check process until bubbling ceases.
CAUTION:
When pressure testing gas supply lines at
pressures greater than 1/2 psig (14 inch W.C.), the
gas supply piping system must be disconnected
from the furnace to prevent damage to the gas
control valve. If the test pressure is less than or
equal to 1/2 psig (14 inch W.C.), close the manual
shut-off valve
2. Remove the black plastic cap located above the blower.
Do not discard cap.
3. Drill a hole through the top of the blower compartment.
NOTE: Hole diameter should be same size as sampling
tube.
4. Insert sampling tube through the drilled hole and into
the heat exchanger.
5. After a complete check and adjustment of furnace
performance, seal the drilled hole with a screw larger
than the hole. NOTE: Seal the screw threads with silicon
sealant - rated at least 500° F.
6. Plug the outside hole with the plastic cap removed in
step 3.
High Altitude Conversion
WARNING:
The reduction of input rating necessary for high
altitude installation may only be accomplished
with factory supplied orifices. Do not attempt to
drill out orifices in the field. Improperly drilled
orifices may cause fire, explosion, carbon
monoxide poisoning, personal injury or death.
High altitude conversion with this furnace depends on
the installation altitude and the heating value of the gas.
The installation of this furnace at altitudes above 2,000
feet must meet the requirements of the National Fuel Gas
Code or local jurisdiction. In Canada, the requirements for
high altitude are different and governed by CSA B149.1.
Always consult your local code authority.
This furnace is shipped from the factory with orifices and
gas regulator settings for natural gas operation at sea
level altitudes. At 2,000 feet, the NFGC requires that this
appliance be derated 4% for each 1000 feet of altitude. For
example, the input needs to be reduced 8% at 2,000 feet,
12% at 3,000 feet and etc. This deration is in reference to
the input rate and gas heating value at sea level.
To derate the furnace requires knowing the heating value of
the gas at the installation site. Heating values at particular
job sites vary for two reasons:
1. The chemical mixture of the gas varies from region to
region and is expressed as the “sea level heating value”.
2. The heating value varies by altitude. For this reason,
especially in high altitude areas, the local gas utility
specifies the heating value at the residence’s gas meter
as the “local value”.
Installation Example
Flue Gas Sampling
Elevation:.................................................... 5,000 feet
Type of Gas:.............................................Natural Gas
Local Heating Value of Gas:................................750
1. Turn off all electric power to the appliance.
Determine which natural gas table to use. From
Table 11, (page 26), find 750 and follow down the column,
stop at the 5,000 feet row. The heating value listed is
LOW. Table 13, (page 26) will be used to determine
orifice size and verify manifold pressure.
It may be necessary to take flue gas sampling in order
to check the performance after furnace installation. A
flue gas sample may be taken from the heat exchanger,
which is located behind the hole of the top-front of blower
compartment.
18
For added flexibility, two tables have been provided for
natural gas installations with high or low heating values
at sea level. Table 12, (page 26) & Table 13, (page 26)
contain the manifold pressure and orifice sizes to use
at various altitudes. Table 12 (HIGH) is for natural gas
installations with a heating value of more than 1,000 Btu
per cubic foot and Table 13 (LOW) is for less than 1,000
Btu per cubic foot. To determine which table to use:
1. Consult the local utility for the local heating value at
your installation site.
2. From Table 11, (page 26), find your local heating value
as supplied by the utility company. Follow down the
column and stop at your altitude level.
3. If your sea level heating value is HIGH, use Table 12
or if it’s LOW, use Table 13. See Example.
After changing the orifices, it is required that you measure
the gas input rate. This may be accomplished in the usual
way, by clocking the gas meter and using the local gas
heating value. See Verifying Input Rate (page 19).
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Observe the action of the burners to make sure there
is no yellowing, lifting or flashback of the flame.
Conversion to Propane (LP) Gas
WARNING:
This furnace was shipped from the factory
equipped to operate on natural gas. Conversion
to LP/propane gas must be performed by qualified
service personnel using factory supplied
conversion parts. Failure to use the proper
conversion kit can cause fire, explosion, property
damage, carbon monoxide poisoning, personal
injury, or death.
WARNING:
Shut off the gas supply at the manual gas shutoff
valve, before disconnecting the electrical power.
A fire or explosion may result causing property
damage, personal injury or loss of life. Failure to
follow the safety warnings exactly could result in
serious injury, death or property damage.
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, personal injury, or death,
turn off the electric power at the disconnect or the
main service panel before making any electrical
connections.
This furnace can be converted from factory-equipped
natural gas to liquid propane gas. Conversion of this valve
requires replacement of the burner orifice and flipping the
regulator cap to the side marked LP. The orifice required
for conversion is supplied with the furnace. See Figure 28.
For altitudes between 0 and 1,999 feet, use the factory
supplied LP orifice as shown in Table 6, (page 19).
Altitudes between 2,000 and 10,000 feet require the orifice
to be changed. Table 14, (page 26) lists the correct orifice
size and manifold pressure at different altitudes.

Operating Instructions
(Direct Ignition Furnaces)
Direct ignition furnaces do not have a pilot. Ignition is
accomplished by a hot surface ignitor. A circuit board
takes care of all timing functions. After lighting, the circuit
board uses the ignitor as a flame sensor, shutting off gas
should the flame go out. There are no external relays or
timing devices. Do not try to light this furnace by hand.
The circuit board is not field serviceable.
1. Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
2. Turn off all electric power to the appliance.
3. Remove the furnace door and turn off the gas valve.
Push in and turn the gas control knob clockwise to OFF.
See Figure 30 (page 17).
4. Wait ten (10) minutes to clear out any gas. If you smell
gas, STOP! and follow the Safety Information. If you
do not smell gas, proceed to step 5.
5. Set the thermostat MODE the ON position.
6. Turn the gas valve ON. Push in and turn gas control
knob counter-clockwise to ON (Figure 30).
7. Replace the furnace door.
8. Turn on all electric power to the appliance.
9. Change the thermostat mode to HEAT and the
temperature selector to a desired temperature level.
The igniter should light in approximately 75 seconds.
If the appliance will not operate, see “How to Shut Off
Gas - Direct Ignition” on page 21 and call your service
technician or gas supplier.
NOTE: In the event of any flashback or explosion,
immediately shut off the furnace and call your service
technician.
How to Shut Off Gas - Direct Ignition Models
1. Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
2. Turn off all electric power to the appliance before
servicing unit.
3. Set the furnace On-Off Switch to OFF.
4. Turn gas control knob clockwise to OFF (Figure 30).
5. Replace the furnace door.
Verifying Input Rate
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The input rate must not exceed the rate shown on the
furnace rating plate. At altitudes above 2,000 feet, it
must not exceed that on the rating plate less 4% for
each 1,000 feet.
The input rate must be verified for each installation to
prevent over-firing of the furnace. To determine the exact
input rate, perform the following procedures:
1. Shut off all other gas fired appliances.
2. Start the furnace and run it for at least 3 minutes.
3. Measure the time (in seconds) required for the gas
meter to complete one revolution.
4. Convert the time per revolution to cubic feet of gas per
hour using Table 9, (page 25).
5. Multiply the gas flow rate in cubic ft per hr by the heating
value of the gas in Btu per cubic ft to obtain the input
rate in Btuh. See example.
Example:
• Time for 1 revolution of a gas meter with a 1 cubic ft
dial = 40 seconds.
• From Table 9 read 90 cubic ft gas per hr.
• Local heating value of the gas (obtained from gas
supplier) = 1,040 Btu per cubic ft.
• Input rate = 1,040 x 90 = 93,600 Btuh.
6. The manifold pressure must be verified for each
installation by a qualified installer, service agency or
the gas supplier. See page 21.
Verifying & Adjusting Temperature Rise
Confirm the temperature rise through the furnace is
within the limits specified on the furnace rating plate. Any
temperature rise outside the specified limits could result
in premature failure of the heat exchanger.
1. Place thermometers in the return and supply air stream
as close to the furnace as possible. To avoid false
readings, the thermometer on the supply air side must be
shielded from direct radiation from the heat exchanger.
2. Adjust all registers and duct dampers to the desired
position and run the furnace for 10 to 15 minutes in
high fire before taking any temperature readings. The
temperature rise is the difference between the supply
and return air temperatures.
For typical duct systems, the temperature rise will fall
within the limits specified on the rating plate with the
blower speed at the factory recommended setting. If
the measured temperature rise is outside the specified
limits, it may be necessary to change the speed of the
blower. NOTE: Lowering the blower speed increases the
temperature rise and a higher blower speed will decrease
the temperature rise.
The furnace is equipped with a multi-tap ECM motor. For
alternate motor tap selections see Table 15, (page 29) &
Table 16, (page 30).
Burner Adjustments
CAUTION:
• Adjustment must be made only by a qualified
technician. Improper air adjustment may
cause unsafe operation, explosion and/or fire
asphyxiation.
• If the input to the furnace is too great because
of excessive gas pressure, wrong size nozzle or
orifice, high altitude, etc., the burner flame will
be sooty and can produce carbon monoxide,
which could result in unsafe operation,
explosion and/or fire or asphyxiation.
21
Burner settings are made at the factory. However, these
settings may change during shipping, handling, and
installation. The following items should be checked and
readjusted if necessary.
Gas Pressure
The gas pressure can be checked with a manometer at
the pressure tap located on the top of the gas valve.
Natural gas manifold pressure should be 3.5” W.C.
and L.P. gas manifold pressure should be 10” W.C.
Replace the gas pressure tap plug on the gas valve. See
Figure 28 (page 16).
OPERATING SEQUENCE
Direct Ignition Furnaces
1. On a call for heat, the thermostat contacts close,
supplying 24 VAC between terminals C and W of the
control module.
2. When the inducer starts, the air pressure switch closes.
differential pressure and energizes the gas valve.
3. After a 45 second purge, the control energizes the Hot
Surface Ignitor (HSI) output for the appropriate warm-up
time. After warm up, the gas valve opens. NOTE: The
time for ignition is approximately 6 seconds, after which
the gas valve either remains open if flame is sensed,
or closes if flame is not sensed.
4. If flame is not sensed, the sequence repeats four more
times before a lockout occurs. To reset, wait 30 seconds
and then interrupt the 24 VAC power by turning the room
thermostat below room temperature, then returning it
to the original set point.
5. If flame does not establish on the 5th attempt (initial
fire + 4 re-tries), the control de-energizes the gas valve,
the red LED flashes 4 times, and the furnace locks out
heat operation for 1 hour. See Table 7 and Table 8,
(page 22).
6. If a flame is present, the control energizes the main
blower on heat speed 30 - 45 seconds after the gas
valve opens.

4. Disconnect ignitor leads at AMP receptacle and check
for 115 volts at the plug during ignition sequence.
5. Replace ignition control if 115 volts is not available at
AMP plug during ignition sequence.
Main Flame Ignites - Burner Locks Out
• Ignition control is not properly grounded.
• Defective ignition control.
• Improper polarity of 115 volt power supply.
• Ignitor has hairline crack.
• Improper gas pressure or burner air adjustment is not
allowing flame to contact ignitor tip for flame rectification.
• Misaligned ignitor does not allow flame to contact ignitor
tip for flame rectification.
Burner Short Cycling - Thermostat Calls
for Heat, Limit Switches Closed
• Check for polarity.
• Check ground.
• Check flue.
• Check combustion air.
• Check gas pressure.
• Check orifice.
24 Volts Supplied To Gas Valve During
Ignition - No Main Gas Flow
• Gas valve may be defective. Replace if necessary.
• Gas piping may be plugged. Check for adequate gas
supply to gas valve at union.

FURNACE CONTROLS & FUNCTIONS
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Furnace On / Off Switch: This switch turns electrical
power to the furnace on and off. The switch must be set
in the ON position for the furnace to operate. If blower
operation is not desired, the furnace On-Off switch may
be set in the Off position to cut the electrical power to the
furnace. See Figure 28 (page 16).
Necessary when the furnace is used with packaged
air conditioners
If an air conditioner is installed that does not use the furnace
blower for air distribution and operates independently o
the furnace, the thermostat system must have an interlock
to prevent the furnace and air conditioner from operating
at the same time. This interlock system usually contains
either a “Heat-Cool” switch which must be turned to one
of the positions to activate heat or cool operation, or a
positive “OFF” switch on the cooling thermostat.
Limit Control: This furnace is protected by two high
temperature safety limit switches. The auxiliary (upper)
limit switch and the high temperature (lower) limit switch
are automatic reset types. If either limit trips, the burner
will shut off. If either limit switch trips off again soon after
resetting, set the furnace On-Off switch to the Off position
and call your authorized serviceman. See Figure 28.
Blower Off Delay: When the blower fan operates under
cooling mode, there is a 40 second delay after the call
for cooling (from the thermostat) is satisfied before the
blower turns off.
Gas Valve: The gas valves for the gas furnaces are a
100% shut-off type and will fail safe, if for some reason
the gas is turned off. The valve is a “slow-open” for MG1
models which means it opens to a low-fire position, and
after a few seconds, “steps-open” to high-fire.
Summer Cooling : The unit is equipped to use a 4-wire
thermostat. When using a 5-wire thermostat, RC and
RH should be jumped (see instructions included with
thermostat). NOTE: The MG1 furnace requires a Y
connection to the furnace. See Figure 33 (page 27) and
Figure 34 (page 28).
MAINTENANCE
Installer Information
The furnace must also be equipped with an automatic
damper to prevent cold air from being discharged up around
the heat exchanger (p/n 901996 for furnaces without coil
cavity, or p/n 901083 with coil cavity). See Figure 31 or
Figure 32. Cold air may cause condensation inside the
heat exchanger which can rust and lead to early failure.
Optional Add-On Air Conditioning
Whether split system or single package, an energysaving air conditioner is available that has been designed
specifically for manufactured housing applications and can
best handle your home comfort needs. Ask your dealer or
contractor about add-on central air conditioning systems.
Single package unit includes cooling coils, compressor,
and vertical discharge fan. This type of unit connects with
the existing home air duct system (an optional close-off
damper is required with the furnace).
Split system unit with vertical discharge for quiet operation
connects with cooling coil furnace (optional coil cavity
required with “A” model furnaces).
All furnaces need periodic service at the beginning of each
heating season. Call your qualified service contractor for
these items:
• Remove the air circulator and clean all dust and lint
from the unit with a stiff bristle brush.
• Inspect the combustion chamber blower compartment,
flue collar and Roof Jack.
• Check the gas valve (if applicable) and fuel line
connections for leaks.
• Make any adjustments necessary for good operation.
WARNING:
Figure 31. With Coil Cavity Damper
Use of furnace or air conditioning components
that are not included in the certification of
this appliance may create a hazard, invalidate
the certification, and in many states, make
installations illegal. Listed air conditioning
components are specified on the furnace label.

NOTES:
1. To comply with government mandated efficiency standards, two openings are required for airflows above 1,600 CFM.
2. Data is shown without filter.
3. Temperature rises in the table are approximate. Actual temperature rises may vary.
4. Individual cells shaded in gray indicate a temperature rise outside of the recommended range.
5. To comply with government mandated efficiency standards, speed settings shaded in gray are not allowed in HEAT mode.
6. The “*” denotes the factory heat and cool setting. If a different motor speed is needed, the appropiate wire from the “HEAT” or “COOL” tap
on the control board must be connected to the desired Tap (1-5) at the motor.
