Service Manual

If this furnace is to be installed in the same space with other
gas appliances, such as a water heater, ensure there is an
adequate supply of combustion and ventilation air for the other
appliances. Refer to the latest edition of the National Fuel
Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 or CAN/CSA B149 Installation
Codes or applicable provisions of the local building codes for
determining the combustion air requirements for the appli-
ances.
Most homes will require outside air be supplied to the furnace
area by means of ventilation grilles or ducts connecting di-
rectly to the outdoors or spaces open to the outdoors such as
attics or crawl spaces.
Installation Positions
*MVM97 models may be installed up flow or horizontally with
left or right side down. *CVM97 models may be installed
down flow or horizontally with left or right side down. Do
not install any furnace on its back.
Horizontal Installations
1. Horizontal installations require 5.5" under the furnace
to accommodate the drain trap.
2. Horizontal furnaces must be installed with ¾” slope
from back to front to permit condensate flow towards
the front of the furnace.
When installing a *MVM97 horizontally with the left side
down, there are two options for connecting the vent pipe to
the furnace.
1. Venting may be connected to the furnace vent pipe fit-
ting on the original top (now the end) of the furnace
2. The internal vent pipe and elbow may be removed from
the furnace to permit the vent to exit the top (original
side) of the furnace. If this option is used, an RF000142
Vent-Drain coupling must be used to keep condensate
from collecting in the inducer assembly.
Refer to the following instructions and illustration.
Insert flange. Cut 2 ½” long.
