Safety Information
DANGER
Danger of explosion.
There are circumstances in which odorant used with
LP/propane gas can lose its scent. In case of a leak,
LP/propane gas will settle close to the floor and may
be difficult to smell. An LP/propane leak detector
should be installed in all LP applications.
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, person-
al injury or loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a licensed professional installer (or
equivalent), service agency or the gas supplier.
CAUTION
As with any mechanical equipment, personal injury
can result from contact with sharp sheet metal
edges. Be careful when you handle this equipment.
Certifications
80AF1DF units are CSA International certified to ANSI
Z21.47.
In the USA, installation of gas furnaces must conform with
local building codes. In the absence of local codes, units
must be installed according to the current National Fuel
Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1). The National Fuel Gas Code is
available from the following address:
American National Standards Institute, Inc.
11 West 42nd Street
New York, NY 10036
Clearances
Adequate clearance must be made around the air open-
ings into the vestibule area. In order to ensure proper unit
operation, combustion and ventilation air supply must be
provided according to the current National Fuel Gas Code.
Vent installations must be consistent with the venting
tables (in this instruction) and applicable provisions of local
building codes.
This furnace is CSA International certified for installation
clearances to combustible material as listed on the unit
nameplate and in the table in figure 9. Accessibility and ser-
vice clearances must take precedence over fire protection
clearances.
Installed Locations
For installation in a residential garage, the furnace must
be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source
are located no less than 18 inches (457 mm) above the
floor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid
physical damage by vehicles. When a furnace is installed
in a public garage, hangar, or other building that has a haz-
ardous atmosphere, the furnace must be installed accord-
ing to recommended good practice requirements and cur-
rent National Fuel Gas Code.
NOTE − For installation on combustible floors, the furnace
shall not be installed directly on carpeting, tile, or other
combustible material other than wood flooring.
Temperature Rise
NOTE − Furnace must be adjusted to obtain a temperature
rise within the range specified on the unit nameplate. Failure
to do so may cause erratic limit operation and may result in
premature heat exchanger failure.
This 80AF1DF furnace must be installed so that its electri-
cal components are protected from water.
Installed in Combination with a Cooling Coil
When this furnace is used with cooling units, it shall be
installed in parallel with, or on the upstream side of, cooling
units to avoid condensation in the heating compartment.
See figure 2. With a parallel flow arrangement, a damper (or
other means to control the flow of air) must adequately pre-
vent chilled air from entering the furnace. If the damper is
manually operated, it must be equipped to prevent operation
of either the heating or the cooling unit, unless it is in the full
HEAT
or
COOL
setting. See figure 2.
