non-DIrect Vent InstallatIons
A minimum of one 90° elbow should be installed on
the combustion air intake “coupling” to guard against
inadvertent blockage.
alternate Vent/flue locatIon
The alternate vent/ue location is the large hole directly
in line with the induced draft blower outlet. To use the
alternate vent/ue location refer to the following steps and
the “Alternate Vent/Flue Location” gure. This option is not
available with counter-ow models.
note: In tHe HorIZontal left InstallatIon

1. Remove the four screws from the vent pipe ange on
top the furnace.
2. Remove the internal elbow and vent pipe.
3. Cut 2 1/2” from the ange.
4. Remove plastic plug in line with the inducer outlet
5. Install cut end of the anged section and connect to
inducer with rubber coupling supplied with furnace.
6. Install screws removed in step 1, securing the ange
to the cabinet.

COMBUSTION AIR INTAKE OPTIONS: The RF000142
coupling can be secured directly to the furnace intake
coupling if condensation is a concern. If the RF000142 is
used on the combustion air inlet, it must be installed with
the arrow pointing up. It should be noted, the combustion
air will actually be moving in a direction opposite of the
arrow on the RF000142 coupling. It must have a eld
supplied, trapped drain tube free-draining to proper
condensate disposal location. A loop in the drain tube can
serve as a trap. The unused RF000142 drain tting should
be capped. A tee installed in the intake pipe is also an
acceptable method of catching condensation. It must have
a eld supplied, trapped drain tube or pipe, free-draining
to proper condensate disposal location. A loop in the drain
tube can serve as a trap.
