Return Air - Upflow Applications
Return air can be brought in through the bottom or either
side of the furnace installed in an upflow application. If the
furnace is installed on a platform with bottom return, make
an airtight seal between the bottom of the furnace and the
platform to ensure that the furnace operates properly and
safely. The furnace is equipped with a removable bottom
panel to facilitate installation.
Markings are provided on both sides of the furnace cabinet
for installations that require side return air. Cut the furnace
cabinet at the maximum dimensions shown on Page 2.
NOTE: 20C and 20D units that require air volumes over
1800 cfm (850 L/s) must have one of the following:
1.
Single side return air with transition to accommodate
20 x 25 x 1 in. (508 x 635 x 25 mm) cleanable air filter.
(Required to maintain proper air velocity.) See Figure
