¹ Natural Gas BTU/h: for altudes above 2,000’, reduce input rang 4% for each 1,000’ above sea level. Low-re rate is 75% of
high-re rate.
² DOE AFUE based upon Isolated Combuson System (ICS).
³ Vent diameter may vary depending upon vent length. Refer to the latest edions of the Naonal Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI
Z223.1 (in the USA) and the Canada Naonal Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA B142.2 (in Canada).
⁴ Minimum Circuit Ampacity = (1.25 x Circulator Blower Amps) + ID Blower amps. Wire size should be determined in accordance
with Naonal Electrical Codes. Extensive wire runs will require larger wire sizes.
⁵ Refers to maximum recommended fuse or circuit breaker size; may use fuses or HACR-type circuit breakers of the same size as
noted.
Notes
• All furnaces are manufactured for use on 115 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase electrical supply.
• Gas Service Connecon ½” FPT
• Important: It is required to size overcurrent protecon device and wires properly and make electrical connecons in accordance
with the Naonal Electrical Code and/or all exisng local codes.

Notes:
• For servicing or cleaning, a 24” front clearance is recommended.
• Unit connecons (electrical, ue, and drain) may necessitate greater clearances than the minimum clearances listed above.
• In all cases, accessibility clearance must take precedence over clearances from the enclosure where accessibility clearances are greater.
• Refer to the appropriate USA and Canadian codes:
◊ In the USA: the Naonal Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54 / ANSI Z223.1

Notes
• CFM in chart is without lter(s). Filters do not ship with this furnace, but must be provided by the installer. If the furnace requires two return lters, this
chart assumes both lters are installed.
• All furnaces ship as high-speed cooling and medium-speed heang. Installer must adjust blower cooling and heang speed as needed.
• For most jobs, about 375 - 400 CFM per ton when cooling is desirable.
• INSTALLATION IS TO BE ADJUSTED TO OBTAIN TEMPERATURE RISE WITHIN THE RANGE SPECIFIED ON THE RATING PLATE.
• This chart is for informaon only. For sasfactory operaon, external stac pressure should not exceed value shown on the rang plate.
• The above chart is for U.S. furnaces installed at 0-2000 feet. At higher altudes, a properly derated unit will have approximately the same temperature rise
at a parcular CFM, while ESP at the CFM will be lower.
• Factory Motor Speed Seng: T1 = 1st Stage Ht, T2 = 2nd Stage Ht, T5 = Cooling
• Temperature rise data is based on second-stage heat. First-stage heat is 75% of rise indicated above.
