This furnace is primarily designed for residential home-heating
applications. It is NOT designed or certied for use in
mobile homes, trailers or recreational vehicles. Neither is it
designed or certied 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

combustion air.
• All other warranty exclusions and restrictions apply
This furnace is an ETL dual-certied appliance and
is appropriate for use with natural or propane gas
(NOTE: If using propane, a propane conversion kit is
required).
Dual certication means that the combustion air inlet pipe
is optional and the furnace can be vented as a:
Non-direct vent (single pipe) central forced air furnace in
which combustion air is taken from the installation area or
from air ducted from the outside or,
Direct vent (dual pipe) central forced air furnace in which all
combustion air supplied directly to the furnace burners through
a special air intake system outlined in these instructions.

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. Bimetal thermostats, or any
thermostat aected 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.
• MERV 11 pleated minimum 4.0” thick (Example P/N
• AMP-11-2025-45) air lter(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.
• The furnace must be installed as a two pipe system,
using 100% outside air for combustion during
construction.
• The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct
system, air lters and evaporator coils are thoroughly
cleaned following nal construction clean up by a
qualied person.
• All furnace operating conditions (including ignition,
input rate, temperature rise and venting) are veried
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.
NOTE: The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires

The rated heating capacity of the furnace should be
greater than or equal to the total heat loss of the area to
be heated. The total heat loss should be calculated by an
approved method or in accordance with “ASHRAE Guide”
or “Manual J-Load Calculations” published by the Air
Conditioning Contractors of America.
