Product Application

 

This furnace is primarily designed for residential home-heat- ing applications. It is NOT designed or certified for use in mobile homes, trailers or recreational vehicles. Neither is it designed or certified for outdoor applications. The furnace must be installed indoors (i.e., attic space, crawl space, or garage area provided the garage area is enclosed with an operating door).

 

This furnace can be used in the following non-industrial commercial applications:

 

Schools, Office Buildings, Churches, Retail Stores, Nursing Homes, Hotels/Motels, Common or Office Areas

 

In such applications, the furnace must be installed with the following stipulations:

• It must be installed per the installation instructions provided and per local and national codes.
• It must be installed indoors in a building constructed on site.
• It must be part of a ducted system and not used in a free air delivery application.
• It must not be used as a “make-up” air unit.
• All other warranty exclusions and restrictions apply.

 

This furnace may be used as a construction site heater

ONLY if all of the following conditions are met:

• The vent system is permanently installed per these installation instructions.
• A room thermostat is used to control the furnace. Fixed jumpers that provide continuous heating CANNOT be used and can cause long term equipment damage. Bi-metal thermostats, or any thermostat affected by vibration must not be used during construction.
• Return air ducts are provided and sealed to the furnace.
• A return air temperature range between 60ºF (16ºC) and 80ºF (27ºC) is maintained.
• Air filters are installed in the system and replaced daily

during construction and upon completion of construction.

• MERV 11 (Example P/N AMP-11-2025-45) air filter(s) are installed in the system and inspected daily and replaced as needed during construction and upon completion of construction.
• The input rate and temperature rise are set per the furnace rating plate.
• 100% outside air must be used for combustion during construction. Temporary ducting may be used to supply outside air to the furnace for combustion – do not connect this duct directly to the furnace. Size this duct according to NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 section for Combustion and Ventilation Air.
•  

The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct system, air filters and evaporator coils are thoroughly cleaned following final construction clean up by a qualified person.

• All furnace operating conditions (including ignition,

input rate, temperature rise and venting) are verified by a qualified person according to these installation

instructions.

• • Furnace doors must be in place on the furnace while the

furnace is operating in any mode.

• • Damage or repairs due to failure to comply with these

requirements are not covered under the warranty.

 

 

 

Follow the instructions listed below when selecting a furnace location. Refer also to the guidelines provided in the Com- bustion and Ventilation Air Requirements.

• Centrally locate the furnace with respect to the proposed

or existing air distribution system.

• Ensure the temperature of the return air entering the furnace is between 55°F and 100°F when the furnace is heating.
• Provisions must be made for venting combustion products outdoors through a proper venting system. The length of flue pipe could be a limiting factor in locating the furnace.
• Ensure adequate combustion air is available for the furnace. Improper or insufficient combustion air can expose building occupants to gas combustion products that could include carbon monoxide. Refer to Combustion and Ventilation Air Requirements section.
• The furnace must be level. If the furnace is to be set on a floor that may become wet or damp at times,  the furnace should be supported above the floor on a concrete base sized approximately 1-½” larger than the base of the furnace.
• Ensure upflow or horizontal furnaces are not installed directly on carpeting, or any other combustible material. The only combustible material allowed is wood.
