GAS SUPPLY & PIPING
WARNING:
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
• Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result
in serious injury, death, or property damage.
• Installation and service must be performed by a
qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any
phone in your building.
• Leave the building immediately.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbor’s
phone. Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire
department.
• All gas piping must be installed in compliance with
local codes and utility regulations. In the absence of
local codes the gas line installation must comply with
the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1 or CAN/CGA B149 Installation Codes.
• Some local codes require the installation of a manual
main shut-off valve and ground joint union external to the
unit. The shut-off valve should be readily accessible for
service and/or emergency use. Consult the local utility
or gas supplier for additional requirements regarding
placement of the manual main gas shut-off. See Figure
7 (page 13).
• The manifold pressure must be set to the appropriate
value for your installation. Refer to the Manifold
Pressure Adjustment section (page 14) for adjustment
instructions.
• Gas piping must never run in or through air ducts,
chimneys, gas vents, or elevator shafts.
• The main gas shutoff valve and main power disconnect
to the unit must be properly labeled by the installer in
case emergency shutdown is required.
• An 1/8 inch NPT plugged tap must be installed in
the gas line immediately upstream of the gas supply
connection to the unit for use when measuring the gas
supply pressure. The plug should be readily accessible
for service use.
• A drip leg should be installed in the vertical pipe run to
the unit. See Figure 7.
This unit only has right side gas entry. When connecting the
gas, provide clearance between the gas supply line and the
entry hole in the unit’s casing to avoid unwanted noise and/
or damage to the unit. A typical gas service hookup is shown
in Figure 7.
Table 8 (page 21) lists gas pipe capacities for standard pipe
sizes as a function of length in typical applications based on
nominal pressure drop in the line.
Leak Check
WARNING:
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death, or property damage.
Never test for gas leaks with an open flame. Use
a commercially available soap solution made
specifically for the detection of leaks to check all
connections. A fire or explosion may result causing
property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
After the gas piping to the unit is complete, all connections
must be tested for gas leaks. This includes pipe connections
at the main gas valve, emergency shutoff valve and other
gas connectors. A soap and water solution can be applied on
each joint or union using a small paintbrush. If any bubbling
is observed, the connection is not sealed adequately and
must be retightened. Repeat the tightening and soap check
process until bubbling ceases.
• If pressure testing the gas supply lines at pressures
greater than 1/2 psig (14 inches WC), the unit must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system to
prevent damage to the gas valve.
• If the test pressure is less than or equal to 1/2 psig
(14 inches WC), the unit must be isolated from the gas
supply line by closing the manual shut-off valve.
High Altitude Conversion - Natural Gas
For installations between zero and 5000 ft above sea level,
the factory installed gas orifice should be used. High altitude
conversion with this furnace depends on the installation
altitude and the heating value of the gas. Installation of this
furnace at altitudes above 2,000 feet shall be in accordance
with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. Please consult your
local code authority.
WARNING:
The reduction of input rating necessary for high
altitude installation may only be accomplished with
factory supplied orifices. Do not attempt to drill out
orifices in the field. Improperly drilled orifices may
cause fire, explosion, carbon monoxide poisoning,
personal injury or death.
The furnaces are shipped from the factory with orifices and
gas regulator settings for natural gas operation up to 5000
ft. At 2,000 feet, the NFGC requires that this appliance be
derated 4% for each 1,000 feet of altitude. For example, at
2,000 feet the input needs to be reduced 8%, at 3,000 feet
(12%), etc. This deration is in reference to the input rate and
gas heating value at sea level.

13
To derate the furnace requires knowing the heating value of
the gas at the installation site. Heating values at particular job
sites vary for two reasons:
1. The chemical mixture of the gas varies across regions and
is expressed as the “sea level heating value”.
2. The heating value varies by altitude. For this reason,
especially in high altitude areas, the local gas utility specifies
the heating value at the residence’s gas meter as the “local
value”.
WARNING:
This unit was equipped at the factory for use with
natural gas only. LP/Propane cannot be used with this
unit. Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury, death or property damage.

Start-Up Procedure
WARNING:
If this unit is equipped with crankcase heaters, allow
24 hrs for heating of the refrigerant compressor
crankcase prior to start up or anytime the power
has been removed for more than 12 hrs. Failure to
comply may result in damage or cause premature
failure of the system.
Air Circulation
Leave the thermostat system mode on OFF, and set the fan
mode to ON. Blower should run continuously. Check the air
delivery at the supply registers and adjust register openings
for balanced air distribution. Examine ductwork for leaks or
obstruction if insufficient air is detected. Set the thermostat
fan mode to AUTO. The blower should stop running.
System Cooling
1. Set the thermostat’s system mode to COOL and the fan
mode to AUTO. Gradually lower the thermostat temperature
setpoint below room temperature and verify the compressor,
fan and indoor blower energize.
2. Feel the air being circulated by the indoor blower and verify
that it is cooler than ambient temperature. Listen for any
unusual noises. If unusual sounds occur, determine the
source of the noise and correct as necessary.
3. Allow the cooling system to operate for several minutes and
then set the temperature selector above room temperature.
Verify the fan and compressor cycle off with the thermostat.
NOTE: The blower will also stop after a 60 second delay.

14
System Heating
1. Set the thermostat to the lowest setting.
2. Follow the procedures given on the operating instruction
label, this manual or attached inside the louvered control
access panel.
3. Set the thermostat above room temperature and verify the
Operating Sequence. See page 16.
4. Verify that the compressor and outdoor fan motor are not
energized.
5. After the unit has run for approximately five minutes, set the
thermostat below room temperature and verify the shutdown
sequence; steps 10, 11, & 12 in the Operating Sequence
section on page 16.
Verifying & Adjusting Temperature Rise
Verify the temperature rise through the unit is within the range
specified on the unit data label. Temperature rises outside the
specified range could result in premature heat exchanger failure.
1. Place thermometers in the return and supply air stream as
close to the unit as possible. The thermometer on the supply
air side must be shielded against direct radiation from the
heat exchanger to avoid false readings.
2. Adjust all registers and duct dampers to the desired
position. Run the unit for 10 to 15 minutes before taking any
temperature readings. The temperature rise is the difference
between the supply and return air temperatures.
NOTE: For typical duct systems, the temperature rise will fall
within the range specified on the data label (with the blower
speed at the factory recommended setting) shown in Table 6
(page 19) or Table 7 (page 20). If the measured temperature
rise falls outside the specified range, it may be necessary
to change the blower speed. Lowering the blower speed
increases the temperature rise and a higher speed decreases
the temperature rise.
Verifying & Adjusting Firing Rate
CAUTION:
Do not re-drill the burner orifices. If the orifice size
must be changed, use only new orifices.
The firing rate must be verified for each installation to prevent
over-firing of the unit. The firing rate must not exceed the
rate shown on the unit data label. To determine the firing
rate, follow the steps below:
1. Obtain the gas heating value (HHV) from the gas supplier.
2. Shut off all other gas fired appliances.
3. Start the unit in heating mode and allow it to run for at least
3 minutes.
4. Measure the time (in seconds) required for the gas meter
to complete one revolution.
5. Convert the time per revolution to cubic feet of gas per hour
using Table 9 (page 21).
6. Multiply the gas flow rate in cubic feet per hour by the
heating value of the gas in Btu per cubic foot to obtain the
firing rate in Btu per hour. See Example.
Example:
• Time for 1 revolution of a gas meter with a 1 cubic foot
dial = 40 seconds.
• From Table 9, read 90 cubic feet gas per hour.
• Local heating value of the gas (obtained from gas supplier)
= 1,040 Btu per cubic foot.
• Input rate = 1,040 x 90 = 93,600 Btuh.
7. Adjust the manifold pressure if necessary. See Manifold
Pressure Adjustment below. For additional information about
elevations above 2,000 feet, see page 12.
Manifold Pressure Adjustment
The manifold pressure must be set to the appropriate value
for your installation. To adjust the manifold pressure:
1. Obtain the required manifold pressure setting
NOTE: The values listed in the tables are based on sea
level values. At higher altitudes, the heating value of gas
is lower than the sea level heating value.
2. Remove the regulator capscrew (Figure 8) from the INLET
side of the regulator.
3. Slowly turn the adjustment screw inside the regulator to
obtain the appropriate manifold pressure.
NOTE: Turning the screw clockwise increases the pressure
and turning the screw counter-clockwise decreases the
pressure. To prevent backing the screw all the way out from
the valve, turn the screw slowly.
4. Replace and tighten the regulator capscrew over the
adjustment screw.
Verifying Over-Temperature Limit Control Operation
1.Verify the louvered control access panel is in place and that
there is power to the unit.
2.Block the return airflow to the unit by installing a close-off
plate in place of or upstream of the filter.
3.Set the thermostat above room temperature and verify the
units operating sequence on page 16.
NOTE: The over-temperature limit control should turn off the gas
valve within approximately four minutes (exact time depends
on the efficiency of the close-off when blocking the return air).
The circulating air and combustion blowers should continue
to run when the over-temperature limit control switch opens.
4.Remove the close-off plate immediately after the over-
temperature limit control opens. If the unit operates for more
than four minutes with no return air, set the thermostat below
room temperature, shut off power to the unit, and replace
the over-temperature limit control.
Verifying Burner Operation
CAUTION:
The door over the burners may only be open for
inspection purposes only. The door must be installed
during unattended operation.
1. Remove the burner compartment door and note the location
of the sightglass on burner head.
2. Set the thermostat above room temperature and observe
the ignition sequence. NOTE: The burner flame should be
present by seeing a glow through the sightglass.

3. After validating the flame, change the thermostat setting to
below room temperature.
4. Verify the burner flame is completely extinguished.
5. Replace the burner compartment door.
Verify Operation of the Supply Air Limit Switch
A properly functioning limit switch should turn off the gas
valve when the return is blocked (time depends on how well
the return air is blocked). The circulating air and combustion
blowers should continue to run when the limit switch opens.
1. Verify the blower door is securely mounted in place and
that there is power to the furnace.
2. Block the return airflow to the furnace by installing a close-
off plate in place of or upstream of the filter(s).
3. Set the thermostat above room temperature and observe
the Operating Sequence.
4. Remove the close-off immediately after the limit switch
opens. If the furnace continues to operate with no return
air, set the thermostat below room temperature, shut off
power to the furnace, and replace the limit switch.
OPERATING SEQUENCE
The operating sequences for the heating, cooling, and fan
modes are described below. Refer to the field and unit wiring
diagram. See Figure 12 (page 23) and Figure 13 (page 24).
Heating Cycle
1. The thermostat calls for heat by energizing the Wterminal
with 24VAC.
2. The control verifies the safety circuit pressure switch is open
and high temperature limit switch circuit is closed.
3. If the pressure switch is open, the control energizes the
inducer and waits for the pressure switch to close. The
pressure switch must close within 10 seconds.
4. The control runs the inducer for a 30 second pre-purge.
5. The control energizes the igniter output for a 30 second
warm-up period.
6. The control energizes the main gas valve for 3 seconds.
7. If the flame is proved after igniting the gas, the control de-
energizes the igniter. The gas valve and inducer remain
energized. The control goes to blower on delay.
8. If flame is present, the control energizes the blower on
the selected HEAT speed 30 seconds after the gas valve
opened. The gas valve remains energized while the inducer
ramps to Max. RPM over a programmed time period.
9. When the thermostat demand for heat is satisfied, the control
de-energizes the gas valve. The inducer output remains on
for a 90 second post-purge period.
10.Blower off timing of 60, 90, 120, & 180 seconds (depending
on the movable jumper setting) begins when the thermostat
is satisfied. See Figure 14 (page 16). The control will
operate at the selected HEAT speed of 60 seconds, then
change to FAN speed for the remaining off delay time. If
the blower off delay jumper is not present, the fan should
still operate for 120 seconds at the selected HEAT speed.
The indoor blower motor is de-energized after a blower off
delay as selected by the movable jumper.

Cooling Cycle
1. The thermostat calls for cooling by energizing the Y& G
terminal with 24VAC.
2. The control energizes the blower in the cooling speed and
sends 24VAC to the contactor in the condensing section.
3. When the thermostat removes the call for cooling, the
contactor in the outdoor condensing section is de-energized
and the control continues to run the fan for a period of 60
seconds.
Fan Mode
• When the thermostat energizes the Gterminal for continuous
fan (without calling for heat or cooling), the indoor fan is
energized on the selected FAN speed. See Figure 6 (Page
11). The control defaults to MEDIUM HIGH if the movable
jumper is not attached.
• If a call for cooling occurs during continuous fan, the blower
will switch over to the selected COOL speed.
• If the Wterminal receives a call for heat during continuous
fan, the blower will de-energize and reset to delayed ON
timing.
• A call for fan is ignored while in lockout.

7. Lift the assembly and bracket straight up out of the burner box
and off the HX panel. NOTE: Use of a flat blade screwdriver
between assembly bracket and top of burner mounting
bracket to help leverage bracket off may be required. See
Figure 9.
8. Clean the flame sensor using steel wool being careful not
to damage the igniter.
9. Replace old gasket with new gasket ensuring correct
orientation, with adhesive side to the bracket.
10.Replace igniter/flame sense assembly in reverse order
they were removed.
Vent System - Check the vent pipe and/or chimney for
corrosion or debris. Any corroded section of vent pipe must be
replaced, and any obstruction or blockage must be removed
prior to operating the furnace.
WARNING:
Holes in the vent pipe or heat exchanger can cause
combustion products to enter the home. Replace the
vent pipe or heat exchanger if leaks are found. Failure
to prevent the circulation of combustion products
into the living space can create potentially hazardous
conditions including carbon monoxide poisoning
that could result in personal injury or death.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If the unit does not operate in the cooling mode, check the
following:
• Is the thermostat operating properly?
• Is the blower compartment doors in place?
• Is the furnace disconnect closed?
• Has the circuit breaker tripped or did any of the control board
fuses burn open? NOTE: There are 2 fuses, one on the
control board (3-amp) and one in a fuse holder (1.5-amp)
to the right of the control board.
• Is the gas turned on?
• Are any manual reset switches open?
• Is the filter dirty or plugged?
• Is the flame sensor coated? (Remove and clean with steel
wool. New gasket is required) See Cleaning of Flame Sensor
sectionon page 16.
• Are all the LED’s on the furnace control board constantly
ON? If not, refer to Table 4 or the wiring diagram (Figure
12 (page 23) and Figure 13 (page 24)) to determine fault
condition.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The furnace will lock out after 5 failed
attempts for ignition and will try again every hour if the call
for heat remains.
• If the inducer blower is operating and items above have been
verified, check the limit switch circuit and reset if necessary.
See Figure 14 (page 26) for component location.
• If the furnace operates when the limit switch circuit is reset,
contact a qualified service technician to identify and repair
the problem.
• If the furnace still doesn’t operate, check the flame roll-out
switch and reset if necessary. See Figure 14 for component
location.
• If the furnace operates when the flame rollout switch is
reset, contact a qualified service technician to identify and
repair the problem.
