operating the furnace.
Step 1—Location
GENERAL
Do not install furnace in a corrosive or contaminated atmo-
sphere. Make sure all combustion and circulating air require-
ments are met, in addition to all local codes and ordinances.
sphere. Make sure all combustion and circulating air require-
ments are met, in addition to all local codes and ordinances.
Do not use this furnace during construction when adhesives,
sealers, and/or new carpets are being installed. If the furnace
is required during construction, use clean outside air for
combustion and ventilation. Compounds of chlorine and
fluorine when burned with combustion air form acids which
cause corrosion of the heat exchangers and metal vent system.
Some of these compounds are found in paneling and dry wall
adhesives, paints, thinners, masonry cleaning materials, and
many other solvents commonly used in the construction
process.
Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will
result in safety and performance related problems.

This furnace must be installed so the electrical components are
protected from water. This furnace shall not be installed directly on
carpeting, tile, or any combustible material other than wood
flooring.

LOCATION RELATIVE TO COOLING EQUIPMENT — The
cooling coil must be installed parallel with or on the downstream
side of the unit to avoid condensation in the heat exchangers.
When installed parallel with a furnace, dampers or other means
used to control the flow of air must prevent chilled air from
entering the unit. If the dampers are manually operated, they must
be equipped with means to prevent operation of either unit unless
the damper is in the full-heat or full-cool position.

HAZARDOUS LOCATIONS
When furnace is installed in a residential garage, it must be
installed so that burners and ignition sources are located a
minimum of 18 in. above floor. The furnace must be located
or protected to avoid physical damage by vehicles. When
furnace is installed in a public garage, airplane hangar, or
other building having a hazardous atmosphere, unit must be
installed in accordance with requirements of National Fire
Protection Association, Inc.

Step 2—Air For Combustion and Ventilation
Provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air must be
provided in accordance with Section 5.3 of the NFGC, Air for
Combustion and Ventilation, or applicable provisions of the local
building codes.

NGPIC and all authorities having jurisdiction.
Air for combustion must not be contaminated by halogen
compounds, which include fluoride, chloride, bromide, and
iodide. These elements are found in aerosol sprays, deter-
gents, bleaches, cleaning solvents, salts, air fresheners, and
other household products.

All fuel-burning equipment must be supplied with air for combus-
tion of the fuel. Sufficient air MUST be provided to ensure there
will not be a negative pressure in the equipment room or space. In
addition, a positive seal MUST be made between the furnace
cabinet and the return-air duct to prevent pulling air from the
burner area and blocked vent safeguard opening.

The operation of exhaust fans, kitchen ventilation fans,
clothes dryers, or fireplaces could create a NEGATIVE
PRESSURE CONDITION at the furnace. Make-up air MUST
BE PROVIDED for the ventilation devices, in addition to that
required by the furnace.
clothes dryers, or fireplaces could create a NEGATIVE

The requirements for combustion and ventilation air depend upon
whether the furnace is located in an unconfined or confined space.
whether the furnace is located in an unconfined or confined space.
UNCONFINED SPACE
An unconfined space has volume of at least 50 cu ft for each 1000
Btuh of total input for all appliances (such as furnaces, clothes
dryers, water heaters, etc.) in the space.
