SAFETY INFORMATION
FORYOURSAFETY
Make sure that the furnace area is clear and free of
combustible materials, gasoline and other flamma-
ble vapors and liquids.
Be sure the furnace is free and clear of insulating
material. Examine the furnace area after installa-
tion of the furnace or the installation of additional
insulation. Some types of insulation are combusti-
ble.
For proper operation of this furnace, air for com-
bustion and ventilation is required. Make sure that
these openings are not obstructed.
For lighting or shutting down this furnace, refer to
the lighting instructions provided adjacent to the
burners and also located in this manual.
A blocked vent roll-out switch is provided in the
burner compartment. This switch is a manual reset.
If the furnace fails to operate, contact a qualified
service technician.
Should the gas supply fail to shut off or if overheat-
ingoccurs,shutoffthegasvalvetothefurnace
before shutting off the electrical supply. Then call a
qualified service technician.
Do not use this furnace if any part has been under
water. A flood-damaged furnace is extremely dan-
gerous. Attempts to use the furnace can result in
fire or explosion. A qualified service technician
should be contacted to inspect the furnace and to
replace all gas controls, control system parts, elec-
trical parts that have been wet or the furnace if
deemed necessary.
Determine the integrity of the installation regarding
the flue gas vent, the return and supply air duct.
Confirm the equipment is well supported and there
are no signs of deterioration. The manufacturer
recommends that main burner, ignition device and
controls are inspected by a qualified service techni-
cian before each heating season.
SYSTEM OPERATION
THERMOSTATS
Set your thermostat for either heating or cooling then
set it for the desired temperature. DO NOT MOVE THE
THERMOSTAT RAPIDLY ON AND OFF, OR BACK
AND FORTH FROM HEAT TO COOL. THIS COULD
DAMAGE YOUR EQUIPMENT.
Always allow at least 5 minutes between changes. Find
the temperature that is most comfortable to you, and
then LEAVE YOUR THERMOSTAT ALONE. (Excep-
tion is for night or vacation “set back” to conserve
energy).
Manually moving the thermostat up or down will not
speed up temperature changes in your rooms. This
only causes the thermostat switch to function at your
command rather than responding to room temperature.
Heat generated by devices other than the furnace may
interfere with thermostat performance. Therefore,
lamps, radios, television sets, etc. should not be placed
near the thermostat.
INTERMITTENT IGNITION DEVICE
Your unit is equipped with a cycling pilot burner. It has a
Pilot Relight control designed to automatically light the
pilot burner each time the thermostat “calls” for heat.
When the thermostat calls for heat, pilot gas is supplied
and at the same time, sparking occurs to light the pilot
gas. With the pilot lit, the flame sensor rod closes a cir-
cuit to the ignitor control which then opens the gas
valve to admit main burner gas.
FIGURE 1: TYPICAL THERMOSTAT
This furnace is equipped with an intermittent pilot and
automatic re-ignition system. Do Not attempt to man-
ually relight the pilot. Personal injury could result.
035-18843-000-A-0402
Unitary Products Group 3
When the room thermostat is satisfied, the electrical
circuit to the gas valve is opened, closing off both main
burner and pilot gas simultaneously. If the pilot burner
should fail to light, contact your heating contractor or
gas utility for service to insure that proper operating
conditions are restored.
INPUT
The correct heat capacity of the furnace is regulated by
the burner orifices and the gas pressure. The proper
orifices are furnished but the gas pressure regulator
must be adjusted by the installer or gas utility service
technician.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TO SHUT DOWN THE FURNACE:
1. Close the main gas shutoff valve(s).
2. Turn off the electric power supply.
TO LIGHT THE FURNACE:
1. Do not attempt to light manually.
2. Open the main gas shutoff valve(s).
3. Adjust the set point of the room thermostat above
the temperature in the space.
4. Turn on the electric power supply.
5. The draft fan will operate. After an adequate purge
time, the electric spark igniter will light the burners.
6. The burners will extinguish and relight automatically
upon the demand of the room thermostat.
VENT SAFETY SYSTEM:
This gas furnace is equipped with an automatic reset
high temperature sensor or rollout switch which in the
unlikely event of a sustained main burner flame rollout
will shut off the flow of gas by closing the main gas
valve. The ignition modules will also be disabled, pre-
venting the flow of gas to the valves. The switch is
located inside the gas heat access panel above the
burner inlet. Flame rollout can be caused by blockage
of the power vent system, improper gas pressure or
adjustment. If this event occurs the furnace will not
operate properly, gas supply to the furnace should be
shut off and no attempt should be made to place the
furnace in operation. The system should be inspected
by a qualified service technician. Refer to Figure 2 for a
typical installation.
100% SHUT OFF:
The ignition modules are designed for 100% shut-off. If
the furnace fails to ignite within 85 seconds after a call
for heat, the flow of gas (including pilot) will be shut off
and the ignition module will lock out. The module can
be reset by:
A. Turning the system switch on the room thermostat
to the “OFF” position and back to the “HEAT” posi-
tion.
B. Decreasing the set point of the room thermostat
below the temperature in the conditioned space
and returning it to its original setting.
C. Opening and closing the unit's main disconnect
switch.

If the furnace continues to lock out, a qualified service
technician should be called to determine the cause of
the problem.
EXPLAIN UNIT FUNCTION
When the system is functioning properly, show the
owner the location of all disconnect switches and the
thermostat. Explain how to start and stop the unit and
how to adjust temperature settings within the limitations
of the system. Advise that the flue exhaust hood sur-
face and the immediate area will experience high tem-
peratures during the heating cycle, and that all
unauthorized personnel and debris must be kept away
from this area.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
In order to insure long and trouble free service from
your system, we recommend periodic inspection,
cleaning, lubrication and adjustment by your installing
Dealer/Contractor. Be sure to ask about this service.
For those who prefer to do-it-yourself, please follow the
instructions listed below to care for your system.
Snow or debris should not be allowed to accumulate in
or around the unit. Do not permit overhanging struc-
tures or shrubs to obstruct outdoor air discharge, com-
bustion air inlets or vent outlets on your unit. These
provide air for combustion and ventilation. Adequate air
is important to the safe and proper operation of the
unit.
HEATING SYSTEM INSPECTION
It is the owner's responsibility to insure that an annual
inspection of the entire heating portion of the unit is
made by a qualified service technician. This should
include inspection of the burner, heating element and
flue for any corrosion or soot accumulation which may
require cleaning and also checking of burner and con-
trols for proper operation.
In addition, at least once during the heating season,
the owner shall make a visual inspection of the flue out-
let for evidence of black soot or blockage of flue outlet
by leaves or other debris. If any soot is found, it is rec-
ommended a qualified service technician be called
immediately. If any blockage is found, it must be
cleared immediately.
Check for obvious signs of deterioration of the unit.
Check that the return and supply ducts attached to the
unit are sound and air tight. Check that the unit's physi-
cal support, concrete slab or roof curb, is sound and
not in need of repair. Make sure there are no gaps
between the roof curb and the unit where rain could
leak into the building.
Start the furnace. The vent motor should start, the
igniter will start to spark and ignite the pilot flame. After
a short delay the main burner should ignite. If it does
not, contact a qualified service technician for assis-
tance. Check the appearance of the main burner flame.
Adjust burner shutters so no yellow flame is observed
in the heat exchanger tubes. (See Figure 3.) If flame
adjustment cannot be made, obtain the assistance of a
qualified service technician and refer to the PILOT
CHECKOUT and BURNER AIR SHUTTER ADJUST-
MENT sections in the UNIT INSTALLATION INSTRUC-
TION.
BURNER AND PILOT CHECK
Periodically (at least annually at the beginning of each
heating season) make a visual check of the pilot and
main burner flame. If necessary, adjust main burner pri-
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result
in dangerous operation, serious injury, death or prop-
erty damage.
Improper servicing could result in dangerous opera-
tion, serious injury, death or property damage.
Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power
to furnace.
When servicing controls, label all wires prior to
disconnecting. Reconnect wires correctly.

mary air shutters to give a distinct, sharp blue flame as
explained under BURNER AIR SHUTTER ADJUST-
MENT. If it is not possible to adjust for the proper flame,
the burners may need cleaning.
CLEANING BURNERS
Remove them from the furnace as explained in
BURNER INSTRUCTIONS section in the Unit Installa-
tion Instructions. Clean burners with wire brush and
vacuum as needed.
CLEANING FLUE PASSAGES AND
HEATING ELEMENTS
With proper combustion adjustment, the heating ele-
ment of a gas fired furnace will seldom need cleaning.
If the element should become sooted, it can be cleaned
as follows:
1. Remove the burner assembly as outlined in
“BURNER INSTRUCTIONS” of the unit installation
instructions.
2. Remove the unit roof from over the gas heat section.
3. Remove the top plate and the top draft blower wheel
from the upper draft blower housing.
4. Remove the screws holding the top of the flue collec-
tor box. Carefully remove the top of the flue collector
box without ripping the adjacent insulation. Then
remove the center divider plate separating the upper
and lower flue boxes.
5. On the inside of the flue collector box, remove the
flue baffles from the tube interiors. Note the last
bend of the baffle fits tightly against the tube forcing
the end of the baffle to lock into the tube collar. This
collar is formed when the tube is expanded into the
end sheet. To remove, move the end of the baffle
toward the center of the tube releasing the end of the
baffle from the tube collar, then pull straight out of
the tube. Refer to Figure 4.
6. Using a wire brush on a flexible wand, brush out the
inside of each heat exchanger from the burner inlet
and flue outlet ends.
7. Brush out the inside of the flue collector box and the
flue baffles.
8. Run the wire brush down the vent hoods from the
flue collector end.
9. If soot build-up is particularly bad, remove the vent
motor and clean the wheel and housings. Run the
wire brush down the flue extensions at the outlet of
the vent housings.
10.After brushing is complete, blow all brushed areas
with air or nitrogen. Vacuum as needed.
11.Replace parts in the order they were removed in
Steps 1 thru 5.
12.When replacing the center and top of the flue collec-
tor box, be careful not to tear the adjoining insula-
tion.
13.Ensure that all seams on the vent side of the com-
bustion system are air tight. Apply a high tempera-
ture (+500°F) sealing compound where needed.
AIR FILTERS
Units up through 125 MBH input (3-6 Ton) are shipped
with 1" throwaway type air filters. All other units contain
2" filters. The filter racks on 3-6 ton units will receive 1"
or 2" filters. Filters can also be installed in the building
at a suitable return air location if an economizer or out-
side air accessory is not used. Filters must always be
used. They should be inspected once a month and
thoroughly cleaned or replaced if it appears they are
beginning to accumulate excessive dirt. Filter sizes and
quantities are shown in the following table.

To install the filters, remove the filter access panel
located to the left of the condensate drain connection
asshowninFigure5.
NOTE: Filters must be installed with “Air Flow” arrows
pointing inward -- toward the indoor coil. In the
event the spacers in the filter section are
removed, they must be reinstalled in their origi-
nal position.
Slide filters all the way into the filter racks provided.
When more than one filter in a filter rack is required,
they must butt each other when sliding into position.
Replace the filter access panel.
BLOWER ASSEMBLY
Even with good filters properly in place, blower wheels
and motors will become dust laden after many months
of operation. The entire blower assembly should be
inspected annually. If the motor and wheel are heavily
coated with dust, they can be brushed and cleaned
with a vacuum cleaner.
These units are supplied with blower shaft bearings
that do not require maintenance but may be relubri-
cated if desired. Every three years, using a low pres-
sure grease gun, pump grease into the bearing grease
fitting until grease just begins to show at the seals. Do
not over lubricate. Use any lithium base grease recom-
mended for ball bearing service.
MOTORS
Outdoor fan motors are permanently lubricated and
require no maintenance.
Ventor motor is factory lubricated for an estimated 10
year life.
Indoor Blower Motor and Drive - The indoor blower
motor features ball bearings that do not require peri-
odic lubrication. Periodic lubrication of the motor and
bearings can extend the life of components but is
optional.
If desired, every three years, using a low pressure
grease gun, pump grease into the bearing grease fit-
ting until grease just begins to show at the seals. Do
not over lubricate. Use any lithium base grease recom-
mended for ball bearing service.
Perform all maintenance operations on the blower
motor with electric power disconnected from the unit.
Do not attempt to lubricate bearings with the unit in
operation.
