NOTE: A 12-in. minimum offset pipe section is recommended
with short (5 to 8 ft) vent systems. This recommendation is to
reduce excessive condensate droplets from exiting the vent pipe.
(See Fig. 10 or 32.)
Step 5—Horizontal Right (Supply-Air Discharge)
Applications
A horizontal right furnace application is where furnace blower is
located to the left of combustion and controls section of furnace,
and conditioned air is discharged to the right.
Local codes may require a drain pan under entire furnace and
condensate trap when a condensing furnace is used in attic
application or over a finished ceiling.
NOTE: In Canada, installations shall be in accordance with
current NSCNGPIC Installation Codes and/or local codes.
NOTE: The auxiliary junction box (J-box) MUST be relocated to
opposite side of furnace casing. (See Fig. 11.) See Electrical
Connection section for J-box relocation.
CONDENSATE TRAP LOCATION
The condensate trap must be removed from the factory-installed
blower shelf location and relocated in selected application location
as shown in Fig. 2 or 11.
To relocate condensate trap from the blower shelf to desired
location, perform the following:
1. Remove 3 tubes connected to condensate trap.
2. Remove trap from blower shelf by gently pushing tabs inward
and rotating trap.
3. Install casing hole filler cap (factory-supplied in loose parts
bag) into blower shelf hole where trap was removed.
4. Install casing hole filler cap into blower shelf hole where trap
was removed.
5. Fill unused condenstate trap casing holes with placstic filler
caps (factory-supplied in loose parts bag).
CONDENSATE TRAP TUBING
NOTE: See Fig. 11 or tube routing label on main furnace door to
check for proper connections.
1. Collector Box Drain Tube
a. Remove factory-installed plug from LOWER collector box
drain tube (blue and white striped label).
b. Install removed clamp and plug into UPPER collector box
drain tube (blue label) which was previously connected to
condensate trap.
c. Connect LOWER collector box drain tube (blue and white
striped label) to condensate trap. Tube does not need to be
cut.
d. Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.
2. Inducer Housing Drain Tube
a. Remove factory-installed cap and clamp from LOWER
inducer housing drain connection.
b. Remove and discard UPPER (molded) inducer housing
drain tube which was previously connected to condensate
trap.
c. Install cap and clamp on UPPER inducer housing drain
connection where molded drain tube was removed.
