made specifically for leak detection.
Lennox does not recommend the use of G61MPV units as
a construction heater during any phase of construction.
Very low return air temperatures, harmful vapors and op-
eration of the unit with clogged or misplaced filters will dam-
age the unit.
G61MPV units may be used for heating of buildings or
structures under construction, if the following conditions
are met:
•The vent system must be permanently installed per
these installation instructions.
• A room thermostat must control the furnace. The use of
fixed jumpers that will provide continuous heating is not
allowed.
• The return air duct must be provided and sealed to the
furnace.
• Return air temperature range between 60°F (16°C) and
80°F (27°C) must be maintained.
• Air filters must be installed in the system and must be
maintained during construction.
• Air filters must be replaced upon construction comple-
tion.
• The input rate and temperature rise must be set per the
furnace rating plate.
• One hundred percent (100%) outdoor air must be pro-
vided for combustion air requirements during construc-
tion. Temporary ducting may supply outdoor air to the
furnace. Do not connect duct directly to the furnace.
Size the temporary duct following these instructions in
section for Combustion, Dilution and Ventilation Air in a
confined space with air from outside.
• The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct sys-
tem, air filters and evaporator coils must be thoroughly
cleaned following final construction clean-up.
• All furnace operating conditions (including ignition, in-
put rate, temperature rise and venting) must be verified
according to these installation instructions.

,CAUTION
WARNING
If the G61MPV is installed as a Non-Direct Vent Fur-
nace, follow the guidelines in this section.
NOTE- In Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air is
taken from indoors and flue gases are discharged out-
doors.
WARNING
In the past, there was no problem in bringing in sufficient
outdoor air for combustion. Infiltration provided all the air
that was needed. In today's homes, tight construction prac-
tices make it necessary to bring in air from outside for com-
bustion, Take into account that exhaust fans, appliance
vents, chimneys, and fireplaces force additional air that
could be used for combustion out of the house, Unless out-
side air is brought into the house for combustion, negative
pressure (outside pressure is greater than inside pressure)
will build to the point that a downdraft can occur in the fur-
nace vent pipe or chimney, As a result, combustion gases
enter the living space creating a potentially dangerous situ-
ation.
In the absence of local codes concerning air for combus-
tion and ventilation, use the guidelines and procedures in
this section to install G61MPV furnaces to ensure efficient
and safe operation You must consider combustion air
needs and requirements for exhaust vents and gas piping
A portion of this information has been reprinted with per-
mission from the National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-
Z223 1/NFPA 54) This reprinted material is not the com-
plete and official position of the ANSI on the referenced
subject, which is represented only by the standard in its en-
tirety
In Canada, refer to the standard CSA B149 installation
codes
Page 6
ACAUTION
All gas-fired appliances require air for the combustion pro-
cess. If sufficient combustion air is not available, the fur-
nace or other appliance will operate inefficiently and un-
safely. Enough air must be provided to meet the needs of
all fuel-burning appliances and appliances such as ex-
haust fans which force air out of the house. When fire-
places, exhaust fans, or clothes dryers are used at the
same time as the furnace, much more air is required to en-
sure proper combustion and to prevent a downdraft. Insuf-
ficient air causes incomplete combustion which can result
in carbon monoxide.
In addition to providing combustion air, fresh outdoor air di-
lutes contaminants in the indoor air. These contaminants
may include bleaches, adhesives, detergents, solvents
and other contaminants which can corrode furnace compo-
nents.
The requirements for providing air for combustion and ven-
tilation depend largely on whether the furnace is installed in
an unconfined or a confined space.
Unconfined Space
An unconfined space is an area such as a basement or
large equipment room with a volume greater than 50 cubic
feet (1.42 m3) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of the com-
bined input rating of all appliances installed in that space.
This space also includes adjacent rooms which are not
separated by a door. Though an area may appear to be un-
confined, it might be necessary to bring in outdoor air for
combustion if the structure does not provide enough air by
infiltration. If the furnace is located in a building of tight
construction with weather stripping and caulking around
the windows and doors, follow the procedures in the air
from outside section.
Confined Space
A confined space is an area with a volume less than 50 cu-
bic feet (1.42 m3) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of the
com-bined input rating of all appliances installed in that
space. This definition includes furnace closets or small
equipment rooms.
When the furnace is installed so that supply ducts carry air
circulated by the furnace to areas outside the space con-
taining the furnace, the return air must be handled by ducts
which are sealed to the furnace casing and which terminate
outside the space containing the furnace. This is especially
important when the furnace is mounted on a platform in a
confined space such as a closet or small equipment room.
Even a small leak around the base of the unit at the platform
or at the return air duct connection can cause a potentially
dangerous negative pressure condition. Air for combustion
and ventilation can be brought into the confined space ei-
ther from inside the building or from outside.
Air from Inside
If the confined space that houses the furnace adjoins a
space categorized as unconfined, air can be brought in by
providing two permanent openings between the two
spaces. Each opening must have a minimum free area of 1
square inch (645 mm2) per 1,000 Btu (.29 kW) per hour of
total input rating of all gas-fired equipment in the confined
space. Each opening must be at least 100 square inches
(64516 mm2). One opening shall be within 12 inches (305
mm) of the top of the enclosure and one opening within 12
inches (305 mm) of the bottom. See figure 3.

Air from Outside
If air from outside is brought in for combustion and ventila-
tion, the confined space shall be provided with two perma-
nent openings. One opening shall be within 12"(305mm) of
the top of the enclosure and one within 12" (305mm) dthe
bottom. These openings must communicate directly or by
ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or attic) that freely
communicate with the outdoors or indirectly through verti-
cal ducts. Each opening shall have a minimum free area of
1 square inch per 4,000 Btu (645mm 2 per 1.17kW) per hour
of total input rating of all equipment in the enclosure. When
communicating with the outdoors through horizontal ducts,
each opening shall have a minimum free area of 1 square
inch per 2,000 Btu (645mm 2 per .59kW) per total input rat-
ing of all equipment in the enclosure (See figure 4).

If air from outside is brought in for combustion and ventila-
tion, the confined space must have two permanent open-
ings, One opening shall be within 12 inches (305 mm) of the
top of the enclosure and one opening within 12 inches (305

rectly or by ducts with the outdoors or spaces (crawl or at-
tic) that freely communicate with the outdoors or indirectly
through vertical ducts, Each opening shall have a minimum
free area of 1 square inch (645 mm 2) per 4,000 Btu (1.17
kW) per hour of total input rating of all equipment in the en-
closure, See figures 4 and 5. When communicating with
the outdoors through horizontal ducts, each opening shall
have aminimum free area of 1 square inch (645 mm2) per
2,000 Btu (.56 kW) per total input rating of all equipment in
the enclosure, See figure 6,
When ducts are used, they shall be of the same cross-sec-
tional area as the free area of the openings to which they
connect. The minimum dimension of rectangular air ducts
shall be no less than 3 inches (75 mm). In calculating free
area, the blocking effect of louvers, grilles, or screens must
be considered. If the design and free area of protective cov-
ering is not known for calculating the size opening required,
it may be assumed that wood louvers will have 20 to 25 per-
cent free area and metal louvers and grilles will have 60 to
75 percent free area, Louvers and grilles must be fixed in
the open position or interlocked with the equipment so that
they are opened automatically during equipment opera-
tion,

&WARNING
Select a location that allows for the required clearances
that are listed on the unit nameplate. Also consider gas
supply connections, electrical supply, vent connection,
condensate trap and drain connections, and installation
and service clearances [24 inches (610 mm) at unit front].
The unit must be level from front to back and side to side.
NOTE -G61MPV-36B and -36C units with 1/2 hp blower
motors are equipped with three flexible legs and one rigid
leg. The rigid leg is equipped with a shipping bolt and a flat
white plastic washer (rather than the rubber mounting
grommet used with a flexible mounting leg). The bolt and
washer must be removed before the furnace is placed
into operation. After the bolt and washer have been re-
moved, the rigid leg will not touch the blower housing.
NQ TE -G61MPV-60D-135 units are equipped with a ship-
ping pad under the blower housing. Remove the shipping
pad prior to operation.
Allow for clearances to combustible materials as indicated
on the unit nameplate. Minimum clearances for closet or al-
cove installations are shown in figures 7, 12 and 16.

Return Air -- Upflow Units
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace installed in an upfiow application. If the
furnace is installed on a platform with bottom return, make
an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the
platform to ensure that the furnace operates properly and
safely. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom
panel to facilitate installation.
Markings are provided on both sides of the furnace cabinet
for installations that require side return air. Cut the furnace
cabinet at the maximum dimensions shown on page 2.
NOTE -When air volumes over 1800 cfm (850 L/s) are
required with 60C or 60D models in an upflow applica-
tion, the following return air options are available:
1-Return air from single side with transfion which will
accommodate 20 x25 x I in. (508 x635 x25 mm) air filter.
(Required to maintain proper air velocity.) See figure 8.
2 - Return air from single side with optional RAB Return
Air Base. See figure 10.
3-Return air from bottom.
4-Return air from both sides.
5-Return air from bottom and one side.
Refer to Engineering Handbook for additional information.

G61MPV applications which include side return air and
a condensate trap installed on the same side of the
cabinet require either a return air base or field-fabri-
cated transition to accommodate an optional IAQ ac-
cessory taller than 14.5".
