WARNING:
This furnace is not approved for instal-
lation in mobile homes. Installation in
a mobile home could cause fire, prop-
erty damage, and/or personal injury.
Location
The furnace must be installed on a level surface,
and as close to the center of the air distribution
system as possible. See Table 3 for overall
dimensions to determine the required clear-
ances in hallways, doorways, stairs, etc. to allow
the furnace to be moved to the installation point.
The furnace must be installed so that all electri-
cal components are protected from water.

panel or door can be located such that the
minimum clearance on the rating plate is satis-
fied, but that panel or door must be removable
so as to allow the appropriate clearance.
This furnace is certified for use on wood flooring.
The furnace must be installed on a solid surface
and must be level front to back and side to side.
This furnace must not be installed directly on
carpeting, tile, or any combustible material other
than wood flooring.
DOWNFLOW MODEL WARNING
The design of the downflow furnace is certified
for natural or propane gas and for installation on
non-combustible flooring. A special com-
bustible floor sub-base is required when install-
ing on a combustible floor. Failure to install the
sub-base may result in fire, property damage
and personal injury. The special downflow sub-
bases are factory supplied accessories, part
numbers 902974, 902677, 904108 and 904165.
904165 is an adjustable sub-base kit and it can
be used on all cabinet sizes. When the furnace
is installed on a factory or site-built cased air
conditioning coil, the sub-base is not neces-
sary. However, the plenum attached to the coil
casing must be installed such that its surfaces
are at least 1" from combustible construction.
A gas-fired furnace installed in a residential
garage must be installed so that the bottom of the
furnace is located a minimum of 18" from the
floor. The furnace must be located or protected
to avoid physical damage by vehicles.
HORIZONTAL INSTALLATIONS
The upflow model furnaces are approved for
horizontal installation. Installation Kit #903568 is
available for horizontal applications. The parts
may also be field supplied. The parts that are
field supplied should conform to Figures 3 and
4. NOTE: Downflow models are NOT approved
for horizontal installation.
!
CAUTION:
Damage to the product resulting from
failure to follow instructions or use of
unauthorized parts may void the
manufacturer's product warranty cov-
erage.
The 90+ upflow furnace can be installed hori-
zontally in an attic, basement, crawl space or
alcove. This furnace can be installed horizon-
tally to the clearances listed in Table 2 on a
platform or on the ceiling rafters. Note that the
platform and the ceiling rafters must be able to
support the weight of the furnace being installed.
It can also be suspended from a ceiling in a
basement or utility room in either a right to left
airflow or left to right airflow.
When installed horizontally, the furnace must be
raised above the surface to allow a drain trap to
hang vertically below the furnace. This will allow
for proper drainage of the condensate from the
furnace.
Conversion of the *TC Upflow Furnace for
a Horizontal Right Installation.
Refer to Figure 3.
1. Remove the hard “J” tube drain trap
assembly.
2. Place the 5/8" cap plug over the drain trap
in the header box from which the “J” drain
trap assembly was removed.
3. Remove the piece of soft tubing running
from the in-line drain assembly to the
header box and place a ½” vinyl cap over
the drain tap in the in-line drain assembly.
4. Remove the gray tubing from the pres-
sure tap on the header box. Remove the
¼” cap from the pressure tap on the right
side of the header box and place it on the
9
corresponding pressure tap on the oppo-
site of the header box.
5. Place the gray tubing that was removed,
to the corresponding pressure tap on the
right side of the header box. ( Refer to
Figure 3)
6. If field supplied parts are used, discon-
nect both soft tubes from the hard “J” tube
drain trap after loosing 7/8" clamps.
Shorten long side of the “J” trap by 8-1/2".
7. Feed the 10" piece of soft tubing through
the round hole located in the right side of
the cabinet wrapper Note: A downward
slope must be maintained on the tube as
it is routed through the furnace (when the
furnace is in the horizontal position).
8. Assemble the 10" piece of soft tube to 5"
tall end of the hard (J) tube to the end of
the 10" soft tube located outside of the
furnace. Secure the connection using
one of the clamps that was removed, from
the “J” trap. Secure the connection with
the 7/8” hose clamp.
9. Reassemble the 30" piece of soft tubing
removed from the factory installed “J”
tube drain trap to the 2’ tall end of the
modified “J” tube drain trap.
Note: Ensure the clamps in step 7 and 8 are
securely tightened in order to avoid any con-
densate leakage.
Note: PVC “T” drain assembly must be in-
stalled so that condensate does not get into the
induced draft blower.( refer to Figure 3).

If outside air is utilized as return air to the furnace
for ventilation or to improve indoor air quality, the
system must be designed so that the return air
to the furnace is not less than 50°F (10°C) during
heating operation. If a combination of indoor and
outdoor air is used, the ducts and damper system
must be designed so that the return air supply to
the furnace is equal to the return air supply under
normal, indoor return air applications.
When a cooling system is installed which uses
the furnace blower to provide airflow over the
indoor coil, the coil must be installed down-
stream (on the outlet side) or in parallel with the
furnace.
If a cooling system is installed in parallel with the
furnace, a damper must be installed to prevent
chilled air from entering the furnace and con-
densing on the heat exchanger. If a manually
operated damper is installed, it must be de-
signed so that operation of the furnace is pre-
vented when the damper is in the cooling posi-
tion and operation of the cooling system is
prevented when the damper is in the heating
position.
Return Air
The return air ductwork may be connected to
any or all of the following: left side return, right
side return, or bottom return. Table 1 shows the
airflow data for each furnace model. Where
maximum airflow is 1800 CFM or more two
openings must be used.

IMPORTANT:
The variable speed blower kit has been
designed to give the installer maxi-
mum flexibility to optimize system per-
formance, efficiency, and comfort.
Because there are so many ways to
configure the kit it is important to read
and follow these instructions carefully.

WARNING:
Products of combustion must not be allowed to enter the return air ductwork or
the circulating air supply. Failure to prevent products of combustion from being
circulated into the living space can create potentially hazardous conditions
including carbon monoxide poisoning that could result in personal injury or death.
All return ductwork must be secured to the furnace with sheet metal screws. For
installations in confined spaces, all return ductwork must be adequately sealed
and joints must be taped. When return air is provided through the bottom of the
furnace, the joint between the furnace and the return air plenum must be sealed.
The floor or platform on which the furnace is mounted must provide sound physical
support of the furnace with no gaps, cracks, or sagging between the furnace and
the floor or platform.
Return air and circulating air ductwork must not be connected to any other heat
producing device such as a fireplace insert, stove, etc.

Determining Nominal AC System
Capacity
In order to select the appropriate airflow for AC
operation the nominal system capacity must be
known. The nominal system capacity is
ALWAYS the nominal capacity of the outdoor
unit. In some cases the nominal system
capacity is not the same as the nominal capacity
of the indoor coil.
NOTE: In order to change the speed settings
for heating or cooling, power to the unit
must be disconnected before the new speed
will be effective.
Selecting the AC Cooling Airflow
The cooling airflow is selected by setting switches
1 through 4 on the motor control board located in
the blower control panel. Table 1 shows the
airflow values versus the airflow selector switch
settings, and the range of airflow settings
recommended for each nominal system capacity.
Selecting the Heating Airflow
The heating airflow is selected by setting
switches 5 and 6 on the motor control board
located in the blower control panel. Note that
switch 7 is not used for heating or cooling in
these furnaces. Therefore, switch 7 can be
either “on” or “off” without affecting the operation
of the furnace. Table 1 shows the airflow values
versus the airflow selector switch settings, and
the range of airflow settings recommended for
each heating capacity.
NOTE: The airflow values (CFM) listed in the
tables are not dependent on duct static pres-
sure. The motor automatically compensates for
changes in duct static pressure (within the limits
of the motor).
VENTING AND COMBUSTION AIR
REQUIREMENTS
These condensing furnaces may be installed
with outdoor combustion air piped directly to the
furnace, or without such special piping. Codes
refer to the former as "direct vent" or "two pipe"
installation. Installation with air taken from
around the furnace is sometimes referred to as
"one pipe" installation - i.e. only the vent (ex-
haust) pipe is provided.
Provisions must be made for adequate supply of
air for combustion and ventilation. For United
States installations, the adequacy of air provi-
sions can be determined by consulting the cur-
rent version of the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI
Z223.1/NPFA-54). For Canadian installations,
requirements are specified in the National Stan-
dard of Canada (CAN/CGA B149.1 & .2). Consult
local codes for special requirements.
An important consideration in selecting one or
two pipe installation is the quality of the combus-
tion air. Indoor air is sometimes contaminated
with various household chemicals which can
cause severe corrosion in the furnace combus-
tion system.
NOTE: If the furnace is operated without ad-
equate air for combustion and ventilation, it may
not perform properly. Furnace components
may be strained by high temperature and could
fail prematurely.

WARNING:
Furnace installation using methods
other than those described in the fol-
lowing sections must comply with the
National Fuel Gas Code and all appli-
cable local codes to provide sufficient
combustion air for the furnace.
Combustion Air Quality
The recommended source of combustion air is
to use the outdoor air supply. However, the use
of indoor air in most applications is acceptable
except as follows:
1. If the furnace is installed in a confined space
it is recommended that the necessary com-
bustion air come from the outdoors by way
of attic, crawl space, air duct, or direct
opening.
2. If outdoor combustion air is used, there
must be no exposure to the installations or
substances listed in Item 3 below.
3. The following types of installation may re-
quire Outdoor Air for combustion, due to
chemical exposures:
Commercial buildings
Buildings with indoor pools
Furnaces installed in laundry rooms
Furnaces installed in hobby or craft rooms
Furnaces installed near chemical stor-
age areas
Exposure to the following substances in the
combustion air supply may also require
Outdoor Air for combustion:
Permanent wave solutions
Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
Chlorine based swimming pool chemi-
cals
Water softening chemicals
De-icing salts or chemicals
Carbon tetrachloride
Halogen type refrigerants
Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroet-
hylene)
Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes,
etc.
Hydrochloric acid
Cements and glues
Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dry-
ers
Masonry acid washing materials
Air Requirements For One-Pipe
Installation
When air for combustion is to be taken from
around the furnace, a protective screen must be
installed over the combustion air intake opening.
This screen is provided with the furnace instal-
lation instructions and functions to prevent de-
bris from entering the combustion system. It
should be installed on the combustion air intake
collar or inlet PVC. If furnace location is such that
this opening might be unintentionally obstructed,
a 3" PVC elbow should be installed on the collar,
and the screen placed inside the inlet of the
elbow. See Figure 10.
Installation In An Unconfined Space
!
CAUTION:
"Tight" buildings (with weather strip-
ping and caulk to reduce infiltration),
may require special provisions for in-
troduction of outside air to ensure
satisfactory combustion and venting,
even though the furnace is located in
an unconfined space.
An unconfined space is an area including all
rooms not separated by doors with a volume
greater than 50 cubic feet per 1,000 Btuh of the
combined input rates of all appliances which draw
combustion air from that space. For example, a
space including a water heater rated at 45,000
Btuh and a furnace rated at 75,000 Btuh requires
a volume of 6,000 cubic feet [50 x (45 + 75) =
6,000] to be considered unconfined. If the space
has an 8 foot ceiling, the floor area of the space
must be 750 square feet (6,000 / 8 = 750). In
general, a furnace installed in an unconfined
space will not require outside air for combustion.
!
WARNING:
Furnaces installed with combustion air
drawn from a heated space which in-
cludes exhaust fans, fireplaces, or
other devices that may produce a nega-
tive pressure should be considered
confined space installations.
Installation In A Confined Space
A confined space is one which does not meet the
unconfined space volume requirements, and
15
typically involves installation in a small room. All
such installations must have specific provisions
for introduction of combustion and ventilation
air.
Codes require that two openings be pro-
vided for this - one with bottom edge within 12"
of the floor and one with top edge within 12" of
the ceiling.
The size and other criteria for these
openings must be per the following sections.
Combustion air openings must not be restricted
in any manner.
Furnaces installed in a confined space which
supply circulating air to areas outside of the
space must draw return air from outside the
space and must have return air ducts tightly
sealed to the furnace.
Air From Inside
Air for combustion and ventilation may be taken
from inside the building through an interior wall
if the building is not "tight" and if the total volume
of the furnace space and the space from which
air is drawn meets the volume requirements for
an unconfined space.
In such cases, the two
openings in the wall must each have free area of
at least one square inch per 1000 Btuh of
total
appliance input, but not less than 100 square
inches of free area. See Figure 11. For example,
if the combined input rate of all appliances is less
than or equal to 100,000 Btuh,
each
opening
must have a free area of at least 100 square
inches. If the combined input rate of all appli-
ances is 120,000 Btuh,
each
opening must have
a free area of at least 120 square inches.
Air Directly Through An Exterior Wall
If combustion air is provided directly through an
exterior wall, the two openings must
each
have
free area of at least one square inch per 4000
Btuh of
total
appliance input. (See Figure 12.)
Outdoor Air Through Vertical Openings or Ducts
If combustion air is provided through vertical
ducts or openings to attics or crawl spaces, the
two openings must each have free area of at
least one square inch per 4000 Btuh of total
appliance input. Ducts must have cross-sec-
tional areas at least as large as the free area of
their respective openings to the furnace space.
Attics or crawl spaces must communicate freely
with the outdoors if they are the source of air for
combustion and ventilation. (See Figures 13
and 14.)
Outdoor Air Through Horizontal
Openings or Ducts
If combustion air is taken from outdoors through
horizontal ducts, the openings must
each
have
free area of at least one square inch per 2000
Btuh of total appliance input. Ducts must have
cross-sectional area at least as large as the free
area of their respective openings to the furnace
space. (See Figure 15.)

These condensing furnaces are classified as
"Category IV" appliances, which require special
venting materials and installation procedures.
Category IV appliances operate with positive
vent pressure and therefore require vent sys-
tems which are thoroughly sealed. They also
produce combustion condensate, which is
slightly acidic and can cause severe corrosion
of ordinary venting materials. Furnace opera-
tion can be adversely affected by restrictive
vent and combustion air piping. Therefore,
vent
and combustion air piping lengths must conform
completely to the requirements of Table 4.
The furnace must be vented to the outdoors. It
must not be vented in common with any other

WARNING:
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING
HAZARD
1. Seal any unused openings in the
venting system
2. Inspect the venting system for proper
size and horizontal pitch, as required
in the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 or the CAN/CGA B149 Instal-
lation Codes and these instructions.
Determine that there is no blockage
or restriction, leakage, corrosion and
other deficiencies which could cause
an unsafe condition.
3. So far as is practical, close all building
doors and windows and all doors
between the space in which the
appliance(s) connected to the
venting system are located and other
spaces of the building.
4. Follow the lighting instructions. Place
the appliance being inspected in
operation. Adjust thermostat so
appliance shall operate
continuously.
5. Turn on clothes dryers and any other
appliance not connected to the
venting system. Turn on any exhaust
fans, such as range hoods and
bathroom exhausts, so they shall
operate at maximum speed. Do not
operate a summer exhaust fan.
6. Close fireplace dampers.
7. Test for spillage from draft hood
equipped appliance at the draft hood
relief opening after 5 minutes of main
burner operation. Use the flame of a
match or candle.
8. If improper venting is observed during
any of the above tests, the venting
system must be corrected in
accordance with the
National Fuel
Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54
and/
or
CSA B149.1, Natural Gas and
Propane Installation Codes.
9. After it has been determined that
each appliance connected to the
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.
Vent Pipe Material
Vent and combustion air pipe and fittings must
be one of the following materials and must
conform to the indicated ANSI/ASTM stan-
dards:
Material Standard
Schedule 40 PVC D1785
PVC-DWV D2665
SDR-21 D2241
& SDR-26
ABS-DWV D2661
Schedule 40 ABS F628
Foam/Cellular Core PVC F891
Note: In Canada, vent materials must be certi-
fied to the Standard for Type BH Gas Venting
System, ULC S636. Any certified ULC S636
material must not be interchanged with unlisted
or non certified pipes and/or fittings. The plastic
components, specified primers and glues of the
certified vent system must not be intermixed with
any other manufacturer’s vent systems or parts.
Cement and primer must conform to ATSM
Standard D2564 for PVC and Standard D2235
for ABS. When joining PVC piping to ABS, use
PVC solvent cement. (See procedure specified
in ASTM Standard D3138.)
Vent Pipe Length and Diameter
In order for the furnace to operate properly, the
combustion air and vent piping must not be exces-
sively restrictive. To ensure this use Table 4,
which indicates the maximum allowable piping
length for a furnace of specified input rate, when
installed with piping of selected diameter and
number of elbows. This table applies to the length
