2. All air from outside the structure:a. If combustion air is taken from outdoors through verticalducts, the openings and ducts MUST have at least 1 sq in.of free area per 4000 Btuh of the total input for allequipment within the confined space. (See Fig. 3.)b. If combustion air is taken from the outdoors throughhorizontal ducts, the openings and ducts MUST have atleast 1 sq in. of free area per 2000 Btuh of the total inputfor all equipment within the confined space.c. When ducts are used, they must be of the same cross-sectional area as the free area of the openings to which theyconnect. The minimum dimension of rectangular ductsmust not be less than 3 in. (See Fig. 3.)Do not install the furnace on its back; safety control operationwill be adversely affected. Never connect return-air ducts tothe back of the furnace. A failure to follow this warning cancause a fire, personal injury, or death.Step 3—Filter ArrangementThe factory-supplied filter(s) is shipped in the blower compart-ment. Determine location for the filter and relocate filter retainingwire if necessary. See Fig. 4 for side return application and Fig. 5for bottom return application. See Table 3 to determine correctfilter size for desired filter location. Table 3 indicates filter size,location, and quantity shipped with the furnace.For bottom air-return applications, filter may need to be cut to fitsome furnace casing widths. A bottom closure panel is factoryinstalled in the bottom of the furnace. When bottom return inlet isdesired, remove and discard the bottom closure panel. Two sets ofhardware are needed for furnaces in 24-1/2-in. wide casings using2 filters for bottom return. All hardware is provided for filterinstallation.NOTE: Furnaces with a 17-1/2-in. wide casing require an addi-tional procedure when locating the filter for bottom return-airapplication. Field-fabricate a sheet metal filler strip 1 X 3 X 24-1/2in. and install it along side of the filter as shown in Fig. 5. Drive2 screws through the casing side and into the filler strip to secureit in place. Filter should rest on the top of the filler strip wheninstalled.Never operate unit without a filter or with filter access doorremoved. Failure to follow this warning can cause fire,personal injury, or death.Step 4—Leveling Legs (If Required)When the furnace is used with side inlet(s) and leveling legs arerequired, refer to Fig. 6, and install field-supplied, corrosion-resistant 5/16-in. machine bolts and nuts.For Example:58PAV FURNACEINPUT BTUHFREE AREA PER OPENING(SQ IN.)ROUND PIPE(IN.
