Upright Installations

Depending on the installation and/or customer preference, filters

can be installed in the central return register or a side panel

external filter rack kit (upflows). As an alternative, a media air filter

or electronic air cleaner can be used as the requested filter.

The following illustrations show possible filter locations.

Horizontal Installations

Filters must be installed in either the central return register or in

the return air ductwork.

START-UP PROCEDURE AND ADJUSTMENT

This furnace must have a 115 VAC power supply properly

connected and grounded. Proper polarity must be maintained for

correct operation. In addition to the following start-up and

adjustment items, refer to further information in “Operational

Checks.”

Heat Anticipator Setting

The heat anticipator in the room thermostat must be correctly

adjusted to obtain the proper number of cycles per hour and to

avoid “overshooting” of the setting. Set the heat anticipator

setting to 0.7 amps. Follow the thermostat manufacturer’s

instructions on how to adjust the heat anticipator setting.

Drain Trap Priming

The drain trap must be primed prior to the furnace start-up. To

prime, fill the drain trap with water. This ensures proper furnace

drainage upon start-up and avoids the possibility of flue gases

escaping through the drain system.

Furnace Operation

1. Purge the gas lines of air prior to start-up.

NOTE: Be sure not purge lines into an enclosed burner

compartment.

2. Check for leaks using an approved chloride-free soap and

water solution, an electronic combustible gas detector or

other approved method.

3. Verify that all required kits (propane gas, high altitude, etc.)

have been appropriately installed.

Furnace Start-Up

1. Close the manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.

2. Turn off the electrical power to the furnace.

3. Set the room thermostat to the lowest possible setting.

4. Remove the burner compartment door.

NOTE:

This furnace is equipped with an ignition device which

automatically lights the burner. Do not try to light the burner by hand.

5. Move the furnace gas control valve manual control to the Off

position.

6. Wait 5 minutes, and then check for a gas odor.

NOTE:

Check near the floor as some types of gas are heavier than air.

7. If a gas odor is detected, follow the instructions in “Gas

Furnace Safety Precautions” in this manual.

8. If no gas odor is detected, move the furnace gas control valve

manual control to the On position.

9. Replace the burner compartment door.

10. Open the manual gas shutoff valve external to the furnace.

11. Turn on the electrical power to the furnace.
