FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to detect and stop gas leak could result in
death, bodily injury, or property damage.
Propane gas is heavier than air. Leaking gas can
settle in low areas such as crawl space. If you
suspect the presence of gas, follow the
instructions on the cover of this manual.
If your L.P. (liquefied petroleum) gas furnace is installed in an ex-
cavated or low lying area, we recommend that you contact your
L.P. gas supplier about installing a warning device that would alert
you of a gas leak.
Frozen Water Pipe Hazard
FROZEN AND BURST WATER PIPE HAZARD.
1. Disconnect the 1/2" I.D. rubber hose from the vent drain fit-
ting (or tee) that is located downstream of the combustion
blower. Insert a funnel into the hose and pour four (4)
ounces of sanitary type (RV) antifreeze into the conden-
sate trap. Reconnect the 1/2" I.D. rubber hose to the stub
on the vent drain fitting. Secure with the hose clamp.
2. Disconnect the 518" I.D. rubber hose from the condensate
trap. Insert a funnel into the hose and pour four (4) ounces
of sanitary type (RV) antifreeze into the plastic transition
box. Squeeze the hose together near the end and quickly
reconnect the 5/8" I.D. rubber hose to the stub on the con-
densate trap. Secure with the hose clamp.
When you return home, your furnace will be ready to start, as it is
not necessary to drain the antifreeze from the furnace.

Failure to protect against frozen pipes may result
in burst water pipes, serious property damage
and/or personal injury.
Furnace may shut down. Do not leave your home
unattended for long periods during freezing
weather without turning off water supply and
draining water pipes or otherwise protecting
against the risk of frozen pipes.
Your furnace is designed solely to provide a safe and comfortable
Have your furnace inspected and serviced on an annual basis

Labeling
living environment. The furnace is NOT designed to ensure that
water pipes will not freeze. It is equipped with several safety de-
vices that are designed to turn the furnace off and prevent it from
restarting in the event of various potentially unsafe conditions.
If your furnace remains off for an extended time, the pipes in your
home could freeze and burst, resulting in serious water damage.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD
Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation that could result in death, bodily injury,
and/or property damage.
Label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing controls. Verify proper operation after
servicing. Only qualified service agencies
should attempt electrical service.
If the structure will be unattended during cold weather, you should
take these precautions.

3,
Turn off the water supply to the structure and drain the wa-
ter lines if possible and add an antifreeze for potable water
to drain traps and toilet tanks. Open faucets in appropriate
areas.
-or-
Have someone check the structure frequently during cold
weather to make sure it is warm enough to prevent pipes
from freezing. Instruct them on a qualified service agency
to call to provide service, if required.
-or-
Install a reliable remote sensing device that will notify
somebody of freezing conditions within the home.
Winter Shutdown (90+ Furnaces)
If you go away during the winter months and do not leave the heat
on in your home, the plastic transition box and the condensate
trap on the furnace must be protected from freeze damage. (See

Pressure Switches
During regular yearly maintenance, check for cracks in any
tubes on the pressure switches.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to disconnect electricity could result in
death or bodily injury.
Turn off electrical power to furnace before
performing any maintenance or removing panels
or doors.
The air filter(s) should be inspected at least monthly and
cleaned or replaced as required. There are two types of filters
that are commonly used. Washable filters (constructed of alu-
minum mesh, foam, or reinforced fibers) may be cleaned by
soaking in mild detergent and rinsing with water. The fiber-
glass disposable type should be REPLACED before it be-
comes clogged.
Remember that dirty filters are the most common cause of in-
adequate heatinq or coolinq_[oerformance.
