• The unit must be permanently installed per these installation instructions.
• A room thermostat must control the furnace. The use of fixed jumpers that will provide continuous heating is not allowed.
• The return air duct must be provided and sealed to the furnace.
• Return air temperature range between 60°F (16°C) and 80°F (27°C) must be maintained.
• Air filters must be installed in the system and must be maintained during construction.
•  Air filters must be replaced upon construction completion.
• The input rate and temperature rise must be set per the furnace rating plate.
• One hundred percent (100%) outdoor air must be provided for combustion air requirements during construction.
• The furnace heat exchanger, components, duct system, air filters, and evaporator coils must be thoroughly cleaned following final construction cleanup.
• All furnace operating conditions (including ignition, input rate, temperature rise, and venting) must be verified according to these installation instructions.

Installing with a Wall Sleeve
Refer to the installation instructions packed with the wall sleeve and Figure 1 for guidance in assembly and mounting using a wall sleeve.

• Make sure the gaskets attached to the sleeve are not damaged.
• Seal the space between the wall sleeve and the building opening with a non-hardening caulking compound. The seal must be weather-tight to prevent the entrance of moisture and water into the building.
• Assure that the unit is completely seated against the gaskets on the wall sleeve.
• Slide the unit into the sleeve. When properly nested, the angle on top of the unit should line up with the top flange of the sleeve and should almost touch. Fasten the unit to the sleeve with five screws furnished with the sleeve.

CAUTION

The sleeve is not intended as the sole support for the unit. Additional support must be provided near the return opening on the unit for adequate support. The use of vibration isolation material between the unit and the support is recommended.

Evaporator Condensate Drain
Install the plastic drain tube (furnished) over the 5/8” O.D. fitting in the center of the Evaporator condensate pan. Connect another end of the drain tube to the open trap (see Figure 2). The plastic drain connection is provided so that it may be disconnected from the permanent drain tubing in the building in the event it becomes necessary to remove
the cooling chassis assembly.
The drain line should pitch gradually downward at least 1” per 10’ of horizontal run to the open drain trap.
Be certain that the plastic drain tube has free drainage and is not crimped or flattened at any bend.

Furnace Condensate Drain
The HWC9 furnace is provided with an internal condensate drain and drain fitting. A street elbow, a hose barb, and a spigot adapter for connection to the drain fitting are factory-supplied in the manual bag. All other piping is field-supplied to suit the installation and local codes.
If the furnace is installed in an unconditioned space, the condensate drain elbow outside the unit cabinet must have heat tape suitable for PVC pipe installed, and the elbow insulated. This heat tape and insulation are field- supplied from standard hardware items that are available locally, and they must be installed in accordance with the instructions provided by their manufacturers.
Units are shipped with the drain fitting installed for side-exit condensate drainage. The drain fitting can be repositioned for front-exit condensate drainage if desired. Do not relocate or remove the internal condensate trap.
If the unit will be started immediately upon completion of installation, the drain must be primed as described in the procedure outlined in the “Start-up” section.
Field-installed piping from the furnace must slope downward a minimum of 1/2” per foot toward the floor drain.

Piping for Side-Exit Condensate Drain
Determine whether the installation better suits a side exit or a front-exit furnace condensate drain. For side condensate drain, see Figure 3 for component locations and additional details. A 2” clearance to the cabinet side is required for service access to the condensate drain fitting when using the side location.

1. Install the factory-supplied street elbow to the drain fitting by threading it into place. Use a thread sealant suitable for PVC; do not use thread tape.
2. Use the appropriate primer and solvent cement to bond field-supplied drain line piping or fittings to the PVC street elbow. Do not use copper tubing or existing copper condensate lines for a drain line.
3. Route the piping to an open floor drain. Do not connect directly to evaporator condensate drain line.

Piping for Front-Exit Condensate Drain
For the front condensate drain, see Figure 4 for component locations and additional details. Use the factory-supplied hose barb with field-supplied flexible tubing or spigot and hose coupling for these installations. A 2” or 4”(depending on the choice of fittings) clearance to the cabinet front is required for service access when using the front location.
The modifications necessary to convert to front-exit the condensate drain is:

1. Disconnect the lower drain hose from the drain fitting.
2. Remove the screw securing the drain fitting to the division panel.
3. Remove the drain fitting and rotate it so that it faces the front of the furnace.
4. Replace the securing screw.
5. Disconnect the lower drain hose from the drain trap and rotate the hose so that the angled end will connect to the drain fitting in its new orientation.
6. Reconnect the lower drain hose to the drain trap and drain fitting. Verify hose level to allow drainage.
7. Remove the grommet plug from the front access panel and insert it into the oval opening in the side panel.
8. Remove the perforated insulation from inside the front access panel around the oval opening. Be sure the area is clean and free of insulation and glue, as it will be used as a sealing surface for the drain-fitting gasket.
9. Prior to setting the unit into operation, replace the access panel.
10. Install the factory-supplied hose barb or spigot adapter to the drain fitting by threading it into place. Use a thread sealant suitable for PVC; do not use thread tape.
11. For the hose barb fitting, affix a suitable length of flexible tubing and route to an open floor drain. Secure the end of the tubing to the drain. Do not connect directly to evaporator condensate drain line.
12. For the spigot adapter, attach the provided rubber coupling and then route 3/4” PVC piping to an open floor drain. Do not connect directly to evaporator condensate drain line.

Combustion Air
This unit is a direct-vent furnace that obtains all air needed for combustion from outdoors.

WARNING

Insufficient combustion air can cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, or asphyxiation. It will also cause excess water in the heat exchanger resulting in rusting and premature heat exchanger failure. Excessive exposure to contaminated combustion air will result in safety and performance-related problems. Avoid exposure to the following substances in the  combustion air supply:

• Permanent wave solutions
• Chlorinated waxes and cleaners
• Chlorine-based swimming pool chemicals
• Water softening chemicals
• De-icing salts or chemicals
• Carbon tetrachloride
• Halogen type refrigerants
• Cleaning solvents (such as perchloroethylene)
• Printing inks, paint removers, varnishes, etc.
• Hydrochloric acid
• Antistatic fabric softeners for clothes dryers
• Masonry acid washing materials

Venting
The venting system is an integral part of the appliance.
The venting system must not be modified or added on to.
The unit contains a combustion inducer. The inducer draws the combustion products out of the heat exchanger and forces them from the unit to the outside. No special provisions are required for supplying air for combustion, nor is a chimney required.
The vent outlet must not be altered or extended.
The venting system is designed for proper operation under all weather conditions and for winds up to 31 m.p.h.
Removal of Unit from Common Venting System
When an existing furnace is removed from a common venting system serving other appliances, the venting system is likely to be too large to properly vent the remaining attached appliances. The following test should be conducted with each appliance while the other appliances connected to the common venting system are not in operation.

1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal pitch and determine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion, or other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.
3. Insofar as is practical, close all building doors and windows between the space in which the appliances remaining connected to the common venting system are located and other spaces in the building. Turn on clothes dryers and any appliance not connected to the common venting system. Turn on exhaust fans, such as range hoods and bathroom exhausts, so they will operate at maximum speed. Do not operate a summer exhaust fan. Close fireplace dampers.
4. Following the lighting instructions, place the unit being inspected in operation. Adjust the thermostat so the appliance will operate continuously.
5. Test for spillage at the draft control relief opening after 5 minutes of main burner operation. Use the flame of a match or candle.
6. Follow the preceding steps for each appliance connected to the common venting system.
7. After it has been determined that each appliance remaining connected to the common venting system properly vents when tested as outlined above, return doors, windows,  exhaust fans, fireplace dampers, and any other fuel-burning appliance to their previous condition of use.
8. If improper venting is observed during any of the above tests, the common venting system must be corrected. See National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1  (latest edition) or CAN/CGA B149.1 & .2 Canadian Installation Codes to correct improper operation of common venting system.

Gas Connections
The gas line to the unit should be adequately sized to prevent undue pressure drop and should never be smaller than the manual valve used. Consult the local utility or National  Fuel Gas Code for complete details on special requirements in sizing gas piping.
The units supplied for operation with natural gas contain a gas regulator which must be operated with inlet gas pressures specified on the rating plate. If gas line pressure exceeds this figure, an additional high-pressure regulator must be installed to reduce this pressure.
Units for operation with propane must be converted with a kit supplied by the manufacturer and require for operation an inlet pressure of 11” W.C. minimum and 13” W.C. maximum. A regulator is also required on the propane tank.

CAUTION
If a flexible gas connector is required or allowed by the authority that has jurisdiction, the black iron pipe shall be installed at the gas valve and extend outside the furnace cabinet. The flexible connector can then be added between the black iron pipe and the gas supply line.

IMPORTANT
Compounds used on threaded joints of gas piping must be resistant to the actions of liquified petroleum gases.

CAUTION
Never use a flame to check for gas leaks. Explosion causing injury or death may occur.

If local codes allow the use of a flexible gas connector, a newly listed connector must be used. Do not use a connector that has previously serviced another gas appliance.
A manual shutoff valve must be located outside the unit.
The use of a union located upstream of the controls is recommended; between the controls, and the manual shutoff valve. This will facilitate the removal of controls and manifold.  See Figure 5 for recommended placement of the union.
Provide a drip leg in the supply piping located exterior to the unit. Piping connections must be sealed with nonhardening pipe joint compound resistant to propane.

WARNING
The furnace must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing the individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psig or 14” W.C. If the piping system is to be tested at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG, the furnace and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system. The gas valve supplied with this furnace is rated at 1/2 PSIG. Any higher pressure may rupture the pressure regulator diaphragm which will cause overfiring of the burners and improper burner operation. This action may produce a high concentration of carbon monoxide which can result in asphyxiation.

Leak Check
After gas piping is completed, carefully check all piping connections (factory and field installed) for gas leaks. Use a leak detecting solution or other preferred means.
NOTE: If emergency shutoff is necessary, shut off the main manual gas valve and disconnect the main power to the furnace. The installer should properly label these devices.

CAUTION
Some soaps used for leak detection are corrosive to certain metals. Carefully rinse piping thoroughly after the leak test has been completed. Do not use matches, candles, flame, or other sources of ignition to check for gas leaks.

Electrical Connections

ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
Precautions and Procedures
All wiring must be done in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition);
Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, CSA C22.1 (latest edition); or local codes, where they prevail. Any alteration of internal wiring will void certification and warranty.

CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components.
Take precautions during furnace installation and service to protect the furnace’s electronic controls. Precautions will help to avoid control exposure to electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control, and the technician at the same electrostatic potential. Neutralize electrostatic charge by touching hand and all tools on an unpainted unit surface,  such as the gas valve or vestibule panel, before performing any service procedure.

The rating plate indicates the operating voltage, phase, minimum circuit ampacity, maximum fuse size, and minimum voltage. Units must never be installed where voltage exceeds 10% over the voltage indicated on the rating plate.
Units are factory wired for a 230-volt power supply. If the power supply is 208 volts, it will be necessary to change a wire connection on the unit transformer from a 240-volt terminal to a 208-volt terminal as shown on the wiring diagram.
Failure of the compressor as a result of an operation on improper voltage voids the compressor replacement warranty.

A separate electric line with a wire having a temperature rating of 60°C should be run directly from the main supply panel to the leads in the unit. Refer to the rating plate located on the unit for a proper fuse or breaker size. Make sure the unit is electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 (latest edition) for installations in the U.S. or the Canadian Electrical Code Part 1, CSA C22.1 (latest edition) for installations in Canada.
See rating plate for minimum wire ampacity, and size wire accordingly.

Exterior Junction Box and Switch
If local codes allow, a field-supplied junction box and optional switch may be installed on the top panel to provide an exterior electrical wiring point and disconnect. A suitable junction box cover must be used. If a switch is used it must meet or exceed the electrical specifications shown on the unit rating plate. The junction box, cover, and (if used) switch are standard items that are locally available.
Installing an Exterior Junction Box

1. Remove the two screws that secure the factory-supplied cover over the rear half of the internal junction box. Keep the front cover in place. See Figure 6.
2. Position a 4×4 junction box over the opening as shown in Figure 7. Make sure the junction box is pulled up against the front cover so that there is no gap. Remove a knock-out in the box to allow the unit wiring leads to extend into the bottom of the box. Pull the leads through the knock-out and into the box. Remove a knock-out for the main power supply leads.
3. Secure the junction box to the top panel using screws.
4. Connect the unit wiring leads to the main power supply or the switch as desired. Securely attach the cover to the junction box. When complete, the junction box should be as shown in Figure 8.
5. The rear cover that was removed in Step 1 is not used and may be discarded.

Thermostat
Install the thermostat according to the directions furnished with it. The thermostat must be located on an inside wall where it will not be affected by drafts, sunlight, or any other heat-producing appliances. Connect the thermostat wires to the low voltage leads on top of the unit following the wiring diagram attached to the unit. The heat anticipator
the setting is 0.50 amp.
NOTE: For HWC9*30 models, a two-stage thermostat is recommended for reaching the highest efficiency and full use of a two-stage compressor.

Air Filter
All indoor return air must be filtered. A permanent-type filter is furnished with the unit, located directly behind the access panel. Removing the panel permits access to the filter. See Figure 5.
If an installation is made in which it is more desirable to mount the filter exterior to the unit, in the return ductwork or elsewhere, the permanent filter can be used or replaced with a disposable filter. If a disposable filter is used, refer to the information provided in Table 1 when sizing the disposable filter.

Table 1. Minimum Required Surface Area for Disposable Filters

Supply and Return Duct(s)
Provide duct(s) sized sufficiently to handle the larger of the air volumes for heating or cooling are provided by this model.
Connect the supply duct to the top of the unit using canvas connections or other flexible connections to prevent noise transmission into the duct system.
To connect the return duct to the system, use a straight piece of duct 22” wide by 6” deep. Insert the duct into the return opening in the bottom of the unit and flange the duct over the existing flanges around the opening inside the unit. Make sure that all sides of the duct are flanged over to permit removal of the cooling chassis if required. Use a  flexible connection to attach the remainder of the return duct. The return duct should be sealed to the unit casing and must terminate outside the space containing the furnace.

Adjustments – Heating Section
Temperature Rise
At the time of installation, the temperature rise must be adjusted to be within the range specified on the unit rating plate. See Table 2. Select a lower blower speed to increase the rise. Select a higher blower speed to reduce risk.
Pressure Regulator
The gas input must not exceed the figures shown on the rating plate. The unit is equipped for rated inputs with manifold pressures of: 3.5” W.C. for natural gas and 10.0” W.C. for propane.
The manifold pressure can be measured by removing the pipe plug in the automatic gas valve. Connect a water manometer and measure the pressure. See Figure 9. Only small variations in gas input may be made by adjusting the regulator. In no case should the final manifold pressure vary more than 0.3” W.C. for natural gas or 0.7” W.C. for propane.
To adjust the regulator, turn the adjusting screw on the regulator clockwise to increase pressure and input or counterclockwise to decrease pressure and input.

Adjustments – Cooling Section (HWC models)
No adjustments are required or should be attempted regarding any of the components of the cooling chassis. The chassis should be checked to see that none of the wirings is loose or missing.
The Cooling chassis is charged with R410A refrigerant.
Blower
The unit contains a direct-drive, multispeed blower. The proper speeds have been preset at the factory for heating and cooling. Refer to the wiring diagram or Table 2 for recommended heating/cooling speeds for specific models. Direct-drive blower motors are permanently lubricated and do not require oiling.
Limit Control
A fixed temperature limit control is provided which will shut off the gas to the main burners if the unit is overheated for any reason. The control must not be adjusted or relocated.
High Altitude Adjustments (U.S. Installations)
Ratings shown on the rating plate are for elevations up to 2000 feet. For elevations above 2000 feet, ratings should be reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1000’ above sea level.
Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1 (latest edition) for further explanation.
High Altitude Adjustments (Canadian Installations)
High altitude conversions may be made by the manufacturer’s authorized representative, in accordance with the requirement of the manufacturer, provincial, or territorial authorities having jurisdiction, and in accordance with the requirements of CAN/CGA B149.1 or B149.2 Installation Code. A high altitude conversion kit, available from the manufacturer and approved for this purpose, must be used.

Installation and Operation in Extremely Cold Weather Areas
In areas where extremely cold (below – 20°F) outdoor temperatures can be expected, some additional installation and operating precautions should be taken. The following precautions are taken to prevent possible vent system ice blockage that could result in safety shutdown of the burners:

1. Adjust to the highest achievable temperature rise within the rise and static pressure ranges specified on the rating plate. Depending on a specific model, it may be possible to change to a lower heating blower speed tap to get a higher temperature rise. This also increases comfort.
2.  Make sure there are no leaks of outside air into the return air system.
3. Keep the outside louver grille as free as possible of any ice that may form and obstruct the flue outlet.

4. Set the thermostat to the temperature desired.

Cooling

1. Turn on the main power supply.
2. Set thermostat system switch to “COOL”.
3. Set the thermostat to the temperature desired.

Heating Sequence of Operation

1. The thermostat calls for heat.
2. Combustion blower starts and proper airflow is proven by the pressure switch closing.
3. The blower continues to operate for 30 seconds prior to the burner’s lighting.
4. Ignition control begins to spark and opens the gas valve. The burners are lit. Ignition is proved through the flame sensor.
5. The circulating air blower starts 30 seconds after the burner’s light.
6. When the thermostat is satisfied, the burners and combustion blower shut off.
7. The circulating air blower will shut off 120 seconds later.
   If the burners should fail to ignite, the ignition control will try to ignite the burners a total of three times. Should the burners fail to ignite within the three trials for ignition,  the ignition control will lockout for 1 hour before beginning another ignition cycle. To reset the control, turn the thermostat down or off for 10 seconds and then set it to the desired setting. At this time, the ignition sequence will try again.

Blower Control
The blower will start approximately 30 seconds after the burners ignite and will stop approximately 120 seconds after the thermostat is satisfied. The time delay is preset at the factory and timing can not be adjusted.

Cooling Sequence of Operation
When the thermostat system switch is set for “COOL”, the blower will start 5 seconds after the thermostat calls for cooling and will stop 90 seconds after the thermostat is
satisfied.
Continuous Fan Operation
Continuous operation of the air handling blower will be obtained if the thermostat fan switch is set to “ON”. With the thermostat fan switch set to “AUTO”, the air handling blower will cycle corresponding with the thermostat cycling.
To Shut Down Unit
For temporary or short periods of shutdown, set the thermostat system switch to “OFF”. For a prolonged period of shutdown, set the thermostat system switch to “OFF” and turn off the electrical power supply and the gas supply to the unit.
