Attached to the UPPER collector box drain connection is a
factory-installed corrugated, plugged tube (blue and white striped

application. Ensure this tube is plugged.
NOTE: See Fig. 6 or 7 or tube routing label on main furnace door
to check for proper connections.
Upper Inducer Housing Drain Connection
Attached to the UPPER (unused) inducer housing drain connection
is a cap and clamp. This cap is used to prevent condensate leakage
in this application. Ensure this connection is capped.

Step 3—Downflow Applications
A downflow furnace application is where furnace blower is located
above combustion and controls section of furnace, and conditioned
air is discharged downwards.
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, 8, or 9.
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. Remove casing hole filler cap from casing hole. (See Fig. 2, 8,
or 9.)
4. Install casing hole filler cap into blower shelf hole where trap
was removed.
Casing hole filler cap must be installed in blower shelf hole
when condensate trap is relocated. Failure to follow this
warning could result in electrical shock, fire, personal injury
or death.
5. Install condensate trap into desired casing hole by inserting
tube connection stubs through casing hole and rotating until
tabs snap into locking position.
