All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
1. Combustible Floor Base Model: 70-BASE  
Use the base bottom panel as a template to mark floor opening locations (see Figure 2). Cut a  
square opening in the floor for the supply air connector duct. Cut the opening 1-inch larger  
than the square template opening. (duct requires 1-inch clearance to combustible floor). Cut a  
combustion air duct opening in the floor 1/8-inch larger than the template opening.  
Figure 2.  
After cutting openings in the floor, place the bottom panel in position. Mark the square  
opening location on the distribution duct at the connection point of the connector duct.  
Remove the bottom panel. Cut an opening in the distribution duct slightly larger than the  
connector duct. (refer to Figure 2 for location of this cut.) Cut the connector duct to length.  
Install the connector duct. Bend over each tab. Insure an airtight seal by using high  
temperature sealant or tape on the joint. Reinstall the bottom panel over the connector duct.  
Insert and secure the combustion air duct. Put the base top assembly in place (see Figure-3).  
IMPORTANT: A combustion air duct must be used. If the underside of the mobile home is  
skirted or enclosed (e.g. enclosed in a crawlspace), the combustion air intake should exit  
through the skirting, or enclosure, if at all possible. All joints and seams of supply ducts and  
combustion air ducts must be closed with a sealing method suitable to the application  
conditions and temperatures ( e.g. high temperature silicone caulk and/or aluminum tape).  
13  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
If the combustion air passageway cannot terminate outside of the skirting or enclosure, a  
permanent opening with a minimum of 50 square inches of unobstructed infiltration (free  
area) for ventilation air must be provided for adequate combustion. This permanent opening  
must be located no less than 12 inches from the bottom of the enclosure or skirting.  
Figure 3.  
Slit the corners of connector duct down to the top of the base assembly. If metal projects more  
than 1-inch above the top of the base assembly, trim the flanges down to 1-inch. While the top  
of distribution duct is being pulled up with one hand, bend down each side of the connector  
duct tightly to the base assembly with the other hand. This assures a tight connection between  
the base assembly and the connector duct and that the distribution duct will be full size. Use  
high temperature tape and/or high temperature silicone caulking on all joints and seams to  
minimize air leakage. Secure the base assembly to the floor with two screws in the front  
flange.  
2. Cottage Base Model: OMCCOT-BASE  
The OMCCOT-BASE cottage base (Figure 1B) is required for a freestanding cottage base  
installation. The cottage base is designed to permit the installation of an 8-inch x 12-inch register  
in each of the two side panels and the rear panel. This allows combustion air to be drawn from  
outside, or inside, the structure whichever is appropriate, or permissible. See section G.  
COMBUSTION AIR for further details regarding combustion air requirements.  
14  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
IMPORTANT: Adequate combustion air must be provided under all circumstances. If the  
underside of the home is skirted or enclosed (e.g. by an enclosed crawlspace), the combustion  
air intake should exit through the side of cottage base and terminate outside of the structure.  
All joints and seams of supply ducts and combustion air ducts must be closed with a sealing  
method suitable to the application conditions and temperatures (e.g. using high temperature  
silicone caulk and/or aluminum tape).  
If the combustion air passageway cannot terminate outside of the structure, a permanent  
opening with a minimum of 50 square inches of unobstructed infiltration (free area) for  
ventilation and combustion air must be provided to the interior of the structure. Additional  
make-up air may need to be supplied to the interior of the structure to compensate for exhaust  
fans, appliances, or vents which consume air from the interior of the structure.  
Refer to the assembly installation instructions included with OMCCOT-BASE cottage base for  
additional information.

E. ALCOVE INSTALLATION  
In this application, a minimum of 18 inches of  
clearance must be provided to the front of the unit.  
Refer to Figure 4.  
Alcove installations must use the No. 70 mobile  
home base.  
Note – access to diagnostic view port.  
Refer to section G. COMBUSTION AIR for  
additional combustion air requirements.  
Figure 4.  
F. CLOSET INSTALLATION  
: HAZARD OF  
ASPHYXIATION: A suction effect  
will occur when the furnace is  
operating inside the closet with the  
closet door closed. For proper  
operation, the furnace blower shall  
create no more than a 0.05-inch water  
column pressure differential between  
the closet and the adjoining space.  
Figure 5.  
1. The return air opening into the  
closet is to have a minimum free  
area of 250 square inches, (refer to  
Figure 5).  
16  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
2. The return air opening may be located in the top, the center or (ideally) the bottom of the  
closet door, or side wall.  
: Do not obstruct any return air openings, including the return grille on the  
furnace. To do so may cause the furnace to activate the high temperature limit and shutdown,  
or it may cause asphyxiation.  
3. The cross-sectional area of the return air duct leading into the closet (when located in the  
floor or ceiling) shall not be less than 250 square inches.  
4. The total free area of openings in the floor or ceiling registers serving the return air duct  
system must be at least 350 square inches. At least one register must be located where it is  
not likely to be covered by carpeting, boxes, furniture, or any other objects.  
5. Materials located in the return duct system must have a flame spread classification of 200 or  
less.  
6. Pans made of a non-combustible material having 1 inch upturned flanges are to be located  
beneath openings in a floor, return air, duct system.  
7. Wiring materials located in the return air duct system must conform to Article 300-22 of the  
latest edition of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70.  
8. Gas piping shall not be located in, or extend through, the return air duct system.  
9. Refer to section G. COMBUSTION AIR for additional combustion air requirements.  
G. COMBUSTION AIR  
The furnace requires the proper amount of combustion air be available to combust the fuel  
cleanly and efficiently. An inadequate combustion air supply can result in unsafe and erratic  
operation of the burner, sooting of the combustion chamber and the heat exchanger, and  
possibly, offensive fuel odors. The combustion air intake must provide an adequate source of  
combustion air to the appliance. Refer to part 5.3 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 /  
NFPA 54-1999, or latest edition for application specific combustion air requirements.  
17  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
The preferred location of the outside combustion air intake termination (e.g. an optional stainless  
steel intake hood, part no.370183) is through the side of the structure, skirting or enclosure. An  
alternate termination location is under the structure in the skirted or crawlspace area providing a  
minimum of 50 square inches of free area exists around the perimeter for outside combustion air  
to be drawn through. NOTE: Combustion air cannot be drawn from the occupied space of the  
home.  
The furnace is shipped with a combustion air duct that must be installed in the bottom of the  
burner enclosure, before the burner is installed. This 2-inch by 7-inch duct is shipped in two  
pieces. High temperature silicone sealant should be applied to both vertical seams, before it is  
snapped together with four flanges on one end. The duct must then have high temperature  
silicone applied to the flanges. Then, the combustion air duct can be inserted through the  
opening in the floor base model no.70. When the combustion air duct has been inserted  
completely, secure the duct to the combustion adapter with self-tapping sheet metal screws, refer  
to Figure 6. Make certain that the flanges, duct, and adapter are completely sealed to the burner  
enclosure base with high temperature silicone caulk.  
NOTE: The adapter may be cut with sheet metal shears to the appropriate size and secured over  
the inlet air duct opening. The adapter will convert the rectangular opening to a round connector  
ring. The ring will allow the connection of 2-inch I.D. flexible hose (provided) between the  
adapter and the inlet air boot, attached to the burner. Secure both ends of the flex hose with hose  
clamps (provided).  
A 2-inch round to 7-inch x 4-inch rectangular, sheet metal, transition boot is supplied with the  
furnace for adapting a 4-inch round combustion air duct to the 2-inch x 7-inch combustion air  
duct. This boot has a screen inserted into the 4-inch round portion of the boot to provide a degree  
of protection from pests entering the furnace when the boot is terminated in the crawl space, or  
skirted area, directly below the furnace.  
The material recommended for the combustion air duct is smooth, round, galvanized steel duct  
or schedule 20 PVC pipe. The maximum duct length allowed is equivalent to 40-feet of straight  
duct. Reduce this length by 6-feet for the intake hood and each 90-degree elbow used, and by 3-  
feet for each 45-degree elbow used the combustion air duct. Flexible, spiral, or corrugated duct is  
not recommended, due to the relatively high pressure drop associated with air movement through  
this type of passageway.

H. FUEL PIPING  
Sizing and installation of fuel lines must be in accordance with federal, state and local  
regulations.  
1. General Gas Piping (GMD-85)  
: Because of the potential of the odorant to fade, a gas leak may not be detected by  
smell. If this furnace is installed below grade, contact your gas supplier for a gas detector.  
A qualified installer or service person must install all gas piping and perform all required testing.  
Piping from the natural gas meter to the furnace shall be in accordance with requirements of the  
local gas utility. Piping from the propane tank to the furnace must follow the recommendations  
of the gas supplier. In the absence of local codes governing gas piping selection and installation,  
follow the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 / NFPA 54-1999, or latest edition.  
A readily accessible, manual gas shutoff valve (design-certified for the applicable gas) with a  
non-displaceable rotor member shall be installed within six feet of the furnace.  
A pipe union, or flanged connection, shall be provided directly up stream of the burner to allow  
burner removal. Unions must be of a ground joint type or flange-jointed type using a gasket  
resistant to the corrosive effects of LP gases. Pipe dope or sealant design-certified to be resistant  
to the action of the LP gases should be used on all threaded joints.  
The burner is setup to be piped to the gas supply through the left-hand side of the furnace. For  
service purposes, it is recommended the gas union be located inside the furnace.  
A drip leg must be used on both propane and natural gas installations immediately upstream of  
the furnace in order to trap oil, condensate, and other impurities which might otherwise lodge in  
the gas valve, or plug the main burner orifice. A drip leg shall be provided at the outlet of the gas  
meter when there is excessive condensation between the gas meter and the furnace.  
Failure to install drip leg(s) may void the manufacturer’s limited warranty on the furnace.  
: With the gas piping pressurized, all gas piping connections must be leak tested  
using a strong soap and water solution. Any leaks must be repaired immediately after turning  
off the gas supply. A final test for gas leakage must be made after purging the gas line.  
: DO NOT wet electronic components during the leak test. Wetting electronic  
components may damage circuitry and cause a hazardous situation. Dry moisture from all  
leads and terminals if wetting occurs. Wait at least 24 hours for the circuit to fully dry before  
energizing the system.

All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
: The furnace and its gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply during  
pressure testing of the gas supply system at pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (13.9 inches  
W.G.). The furnace can be isolated from the gas supply by closing the manual gas shutoff  
valve serving the appliance at test pressures equal to, or less than, 1/2 PSIG or (13.9 inches  
W.G.).  
: Copper and brass tubing and fittings (except tin lined) shall not be used if the gas  
contains more than a trace (0.3 grains per 100 cubic ft.) of hydrogen sulfide gas. Check with  
your gas supplier.  
For natural gas, the maximum supply pressure is 13.9 in. W.G. and the minimum supply  
pressure, for purposes of input adjustment, is 4.5 in. W.G.  
For propane gas, the maximum supply pressure is 13.9 in. W.G. and the minimum supply  
pressure, for purposes of input adjustment, is 11.5 in. W.G.  
2. Oil Tank and Piping (OMD-70)  
: All local codes and ordinances take precedence with regard to tank and oil lines.  
All lines must have oil shutoff valves, a good pipe joint compound approved for use with oil on  
all pipe threads, no kinks; no sharp bends and be properly tested for leaks. Flare fittings are  
recommended for tubing.  
: Do not run the oil pump dry for more than five minutes.  
Your furnace is factory equipped to operate on No. 2 distillate fuel (domestic heating) oil. In  
very cold weather, No. 1 distillate fuel oil may be used. Your oil supplier should be contacted for  
recommendations.  
: Do not use motor oil or any fuel other than No. 1 or No. 2 fuel oil in this furnace.  
Burners are most commonly installed with a single stage fuel pump (refer to Figure 7). This type  
of fuel pump, when connected with a supply line only, is satisfactory where the fuel supply is  
level with, or above, the burner. This type of installation permits gravity flow of oil to the  
burner. When it is necessary to “lift” (raise) oil to the burner, a return line should be connected  
between the fuel pump and tank. This requires insertion of the “by-pass” plug into the fuel pump.  
If the lift exceeds approximately 10 feet, a two-stage pump should be installed with a return line.  
When a return line is used with either single or two-stage pumps, air is automatically returned to  
the tank, making the unit self-purging.  
Use of continuous runs of heavy wall copper tubing is recommended. Always use flare fittings.  
Avoid use of fittings in inaccessible locations. Avoid running tubing against any type of  
heating unit and across ceiling or floor joists.  
21  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
If possible, install the tubing under the floor. Specific information on piping, fuel pump  
connections, lift capabilities and tank installations is provided in the fuel pump manufacturer’s  
instructions.  
If the oil tank is located inside the building and the tank capacity is between 10 and 660  
gallons, it shall not be located within 5 feet horizontally from any source of heat, or oil-  
burning appliance. Furthermore, the oil tank shall not block access to utility service  
meters, switch panels, and shutoff valves.  
If an underground tank used, the top of the tank should be below all piping in order to prevent oil  
discharge through a broken connection. Underwriters Laboratories requirements now stipulate  
that all 275 gallon and larger tanks have a bottom outlet. This is to prevent the accumulation of  
condensate, which causes the tank to rust. It is also recommended to use a water trap or additives  
to prevent condensate accumulation.  
If the tank is above the burner, and gravity oil feed to the burner is permitted, a single line  
system may be used. The line should have a gradual slope downward of approximately 1/2 inch  
per foot, or more, to a point directly below where it is connected to the pump. Installing the line  
with a downward slope will help prevent the formation of air pockets in the line.  
IMPORTANT: An oil safety valve or a delayed-action solenoid valve is required with all  
gravity feed oil supply systems.  
IMPORTANT: The oil storage tank must be free of water, sludge and scale to prevent  
excessive wear and possible damage to furnace oil pump and burner nozzle. A fuel oil filter  
installed in the oil supply line to the burner is required.  
OIL FILTER: For all installations, use a low micron, oil filter with the capacity to trap particles  
10 microns in diameter, or greater. Filtering the oil supply helps to prevent nozzle clogging.  
Install the oil filter inside the building between the tank shutoff valve and the burner. The filter  
cartridge should be replaced at least once a year. The filter body should be thoroughly cleaned  
before installing a new cartridge.

: When testing electrical equipment, always follow standard electrical procedures  
and precautions.  
1. Electrical Branch Supply Circuit  
Route all electrical wiring to the left side of the furnace. The power supply circuit to the  
furnace must be installed and grounded in accordance with the provisions of the National  
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA-70-1999, or latest edition, and all local codes having  
jurisdiction. Electrical Branch Supply Circuit provisions of the Canadian Electrical Code  
Part 1 shall be observed and followed where applicable.  
2. Connection Of Power Supply Wires  
a. Remove the furnace control panel cover.  
b. Insert 120 VAC wires through the strain relief bushing (or conduit connection as  
applicable) on the left side of the furnace junction box.  
c. Connect the “Hot” wire to the black wire marked “L1.  
d. Connect the “Neutral” wire to the white wire marked L2”.  
e. Connect the “ground” wire to the ground lug.  
3. Connection Of Thermostat Wires  
NOTE: Class 1 thermostat wire must be used inside the furnace burner compartment.  
a. Insert 24 VAC wires through the plastic grommet on the left side of the furnace casing.  
b. Connect the thermostat wires to “R” and “W” for heating.  
c. Connect the thermostat wires to the room thermostat.  
IMPORTANT: The room thermostat should be installed 4 to 5 feet above the floor on  
interior wall which is relatively free from direct sources of heat (sunlight or supply airflow)  
or exposure to cold (drafts from open windows and doors). The nominal anticipator settings  
are 0.8 amperes, for the GMD, and 0.2 amperes, for the OMD (refer to the thermostat  
literature for additional information).  
Five-conductor thermostat wire is recommended for 24 VAC, low-voltage, control circuit  
wiring. Only 2 wires are required for the furnace (a heating application only).

Once the furnace is installed, check the thermostat heat anticipator the proper nominal  
setting.  
a. Connect a multimeter, capable of reading milliamps (mA), in series with the low voltage  
wires to the thermostat.  
b. Increase the thermostat setting, or create a “call for heat”.  
c. Read the value of the thermostat current, in milliamps.  
d. Adjust the heat anticipator of the thermostat to the value read by the multimeter.  
If the heat anticipator is set too high, the furnace may delay activation of a heating cycle for  
too long. If the heat anticipator is set too low, the furnace may cycle too frequently. Either  
condition may not provide optimal comfort to the homeowner.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
The control provides a 120 VAC output for an electronic air cleaner. This output is energized whenever the  
fan motor is energized (either low, heat or cool speed). Connection is made via male quick connect  
terminal labeled “EAC”.  
Humidifier  
The control provides a 120 VAC output for a humidifier. Connections are made to a male quick connect  
terminal labeled “FAN”. The control does not switch this output, it provides a pass-through connection  
from P1-7 from the switched primary voltage of the Burner Module.  
Status LED  
A red LED is provided to indicate any thermostat input has been recognized by the microprocessor on the  
control. See Diagnostic Features for a function description of operation.  
Thermostat Input LEDs  
Four green LEDs are placed beneath their respective thermostat connections (W, Y, G and DEHUM) and  
operate whenever a call is present. See Diagnostic Features for a function description of operation.  
C. Operating Modes  
Standby Mode  
All outputs are off and the control is waiting for a thermostat demand. The thermostat inputs, and limit  
switch are continuously monitored. The control initiates action when a thermostat call is received or limit  
switch opens.  
Fan Mode  
A call for fan (“G”) is received from the thermostat. If no other mode is calling for blower operation, the  
control will operate the fan relay (K4) and power the “Low” blower speed terminal. The fan mode will be  
operated as long as the “G” input is calling and neither the Heat mode nor the Cool mode is calling for  
blower operation. When the Heat and Cool modes call for blower operation, their respective outputs will  
take precedence after their respective turn-on time delays have expired.  
Heat Mode  
When a call for heat (“W”) is received from the thermostat, if the “Cool” mode is not already active, the  
“T-T” terminal is energized and the blower on delay is started. The on-off pattern of DIP switch SW2  
(positions 1 and 2) select one of four blower on delay values (see Table 11). When the delay time has  
elapsed, the “HEAT” blower speed is energized. The control remains in steady heat mode until the  
thermostat is satisfied. When the call for heat signal is removed, the “T-T” terminal is de-energized and the  
blower off delay is started. The on-off pattern of DIP switch SW2 (positions 3 and 4) select one of four  
blower off delay values (see Table 11). When the delay time has elapsed, the “HEAT” blower speed  
terminal is de-energized.

PSC TROUBLE SHOOTING  
DIAGNOSTIC FEATURES  
The control board is equipped with 4 green Input Status LEDs and 1 red Board Status LED. These are  
intended to provide a quick view into furnace performance without requiring a voltmeter.  
The green Input Status LEDs are driven by the “Y”, “W”, “G”, and “DEHUM” inputs and are located  
directly below those inputs. They will light to indicate the presence of these signals.  
The red Board Status LED has two functions:  
It will light when the board recognizes a valid input signal and will stay lit until all valid signals are  
removed. This is intended to show that the board is functioning and able to respond to input signals.  
It will flash rapidly while 120VAC is missing from the LIMIT switch. This is intended to give a quick  
visual indication of the High Limit switch.

K. BURNER INSTALLATION  
The burner mounts to the furnace on three mounting bolt studs, located on the burner mounting  
plate, in the lower portion of the vestibule, directly in front of the heat exchanger.  
The burner insertion depth has been fixed by the factory for the design-specified, combination of  
the air tube length and the combustion chamber used with the furnace. The combustion chamber  
is pre-positioned during the assembly process and held in place by the drum and mounting plate.  
The burner insertion depth is not field-adjustable.  
Should access to the chamber be necessary, refer to the exploded diagram, in the back of this  
manual, to identify replacement parts.  
To install and ready the burner for firing, follow the steps below for both furnace models.  
1. With electrical power connected to the furnace, turn off all electrical power to unit.  
2. Remove the front lower access panel.  
3. Mount the burner to the furnace. Install the flange gasket over the mounting studs and  
secure the burner flange to the furnace using hex head machine screw nuts, provided in  
the Parts Kit.  
4. Connect the red and white wires from the burner harness to the black, red and white  
burner power leads found underneath the primary control. Then connect the two yellow  
wires to the “T & T” terminals on the front of the primary control.  
For the oil burner installation (OMD) only:  
5. Determine whether an oil return line is required and connect the fuel oil piping to the  
burner oil pump through the base of the unit.  
6. Turn on electrical power to the furnace. Cause or simulate a “call for heat” to bleed  
air from the oil line at the oil pump. (Temporarily, connect the two thermostat leads  
to cause the oil pump to run.)  
7. With all oil shutoff valves open, open the air-bleed valve on the oil pump and capture  
the oil flow in a container until all traces of air in the line are gone.  
8. Close the air-bleed valve. Check for and correct any oil leaks. The furnace is now  
ready for burner adjustment. Refer to the following “BURNER OPERATION AND  
ADJUSTMENT” section.  
For the gas burner installation (GMD) only:  
5. Connect the gas piping to the burner through the base of the unit.  
6. With all gas shutoff valves open, bleed air from the gas line by opening the pipe  
union closest to the furnace a small amount. Carefully, close the pipe union when the  
odor of gas becomes strong. Check for and correct any subsequent gas leaks.  
Wait five (5) minutes for any lingering gas to dissipate.  
7. Turn on electrical power to the furnace.

All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
8. The furnace is now ready for burner adjustment, refer to the following “BURNER  
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT” section.  
L. BURNER OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
: NEVER burn garbage or refuse in the furnace. NEVER try to ignite oil or gas by  
tossing burning papers or other material into your furnace.  
: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result  
causing personal injury, loss of life or property damage.  
: NEVER use gasoline or a mixture of oil and gasoline to start the burner or  
furnace.  
1. Qualified service personnel must perform the first lighting of the burner.  
2. The burner instructions must be read and understood before any attempt is made to  
light this burner.  
NOTE: For the sequence of burner operations, see individual burner manual. To  
successfully service and initially set up this furnace you must use the following  
instruments:  
[Items (a)-(e) ... apply to both oil and gas furnaces), item (f) ... applies to gas units only,  
and items (g)-(h) ... applies to oil units only]  
a. Carbon dioxide (CO2) or oxygen (O2) analyzer.  
b. Flue gas thermometer (range 100°F to 1000°F) and temperature-measuring  
device (range -40°F to 240°F, for return and supply air temperatures).  
c. Carbon monoxide (CO) detector  
d. Electrical multimeter  
e. Liquid, U-tube type manometer or equivalent pressure measuring instrument  
(range: 0 – 28 in.W.G.)  
f. Smoke spot tester or equivalent smoke density measuring device  
g. Oil pressure gauge (range: 0-150 PSIG)  
h. Vacuum gauge (range: 0-30 in. W.G. vacuum)  
Turn the main service switch that provides power to the furnace to the “off” position. Set  
thermostat above room temperature. Open all fuel supply valves. Bleed air out of fuel  
supply line, if not already completed (for oil, power must be “on” to the burner and the  
pump must be operating to expel air in the supply line).  
When ignition is established, if necessary, make a preliminary burner air adjustment to  
attain a clean combustion flame (one which does not create smoke by eye). On the GMD  
unit, the flame may be viewed through a sightglass mounted on the burner. On both units,  
the flame may be viewed through the overfire inspection cover (see exploded diagram of

replacement parts for location identification). After the furnace is warmed up to a steady-  
state condition (about 15 minutes), the final burner adjustment should be made using  
combustion instrumentation for measuring carbon dioxide (CO2) or oxygen (O2), carbon  
monoxide (CO), smoke (for oil furnaces), and stack temperature. In order to achieve the  
most efficient combustion possible, the following steps must be taken.  
IMPORTANT: To achieve proper combustion and efficiency instruments must be used  
to secure CO2, O2 and CO readings.  
1. CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) or OXYGEN (O2): Take a CO2 sample from the flue pipe  
or vent connector at a position close to the furnace. It is possible to achieve relatively  
high CO2 (or low O2) readings with low stack temperatures to produce maximum  
combustion efficiency. However, the CO2 and O2 values recommended are slightly  
less, though this means slightly lower efficiency, to allow the burner to better tolerate  
adverse operating conditions, such as a cold heat exchanger, downdraft conditions,  
heating content changes in the fuel. This working tolerance means less service and  
maintenance during heating seasons as well as a reduced chance of producing carbon  
monoxide under adverse conditions.  
2. CARBON MONOXIDE (CO): As described above, take a flue gas sample from the  
flue pipe or vent connector at a position close to the furnace. The amount of CO  
generated by combustion ideally should be zero or only a trace. In all cases, it must  
be less than 50 PPM. Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless gas, but it is toxic  
compound. The production of significant quantities of CO is a strong indicator of  
incomplete combustion. Check the fuel supply and the burner for fuel leakage. Check  
for an inadequate supply of clean air for combustion. Also, check for a restricted or  
blocked flue, vent, or chimney.  
3. SMOKE: (oil burners only) A smoke sample should be drawn from the flue pipe or  
vent connector at a position close to the furnace. For the greatest efficiency, if the  
first smoke reading is “0”, close the air shutter on the burner until a trace smoke  
reading is obtained.  
4. FLUE GAS TEMPERATURE: The flue gas temperature will vary to some degree  
depending on the heating content of the fuel, the amount of combustion air, and  
airflow across heat exchanger. In general, the lower the stack temperature, the higher  
the efficiency. However, stack temperatures under 350°F may cause flue gases to  
condense, which in turn may cause excessive metal corrosion.  
5. TEMPERATURE RISE: Supply air temperature (measured twelve inches into trunk,  
away from radiant heat from the furnace) minus (-) return air temperature, or  
Temperature rise = Supply air temperature - Return air temperature.  
The temperature rise across the furnace heat exchanger operating at steady-state  
conditions (about 15 to 20 minutes) should not exceed 100°F. The normal comfort  
32

range is between 70°F to 100°F. A lower temperature rise usually results in a higher  
system efficiency.  
: If the temperature rise exceeds 100°F, the heat exchanger may fail, voiding  
the heat exchanger warranty resulting in property damage, personal injury or loss of  
life.  
M. FLUE GAS COMBUSTION ANALYSIS  
: Burner adjustments must be confirmed by instrumentation. Failure to use  
accurate or calibrated instrumentation to correctly setup the burner may result in  
reduced efficiency, sooting, and/or the production of hazardous carbon monoxide gas.  
For typical burner combustion analysis results, refer to the table below.

B. CAD CELL CHECKOUT PROCEDURE: (OMD ONLY)  
1. Remove cad cell lead wires, then start the burner. Shortly after burner starts, place a  
temporary jumper between terminals f & f of the oil primary control. Connect ohmmeter  
across cad cell lead wires - resistance should be less than 1600 ohms.  
2. Stop the burner and remove temporary jumper.  
3. With the burner off, check dark cell resistance across cad cell lead wires. Resistance  
should be greater than 20,000 ohms. If cell resistances are different from above, recheck  
wiring, location of cell, etc. If necessary, replace plug in portion of cell, (Part No.  
350104).  
4. Reconnect cad cell lead wires. Check out the oil primary control according to the  
instructions packed with the control.  
C. HEAT EXCHANGER CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS  
: The heat exchanger must be cleaned by a qualified service person.  
For oil-fired units, it is important to inspect and clean the heat exchanger once a year, or as  
necessary, to remove any build-up of soot. A layer of soot on the inside of the heat exchanger  
will act as an insulator, reducing heat transfer, resulting in reduced efficiency  
For gas-fired units, the presence of a layer of soot on the heat exchanger is a strong indicator  
of incomplete combustion. The burner adjustment should be rechecked as well as the firing  
rate, the combustion air supply, and the vent system.  
To clean the heat exchanger,  
1. First, turn off all power to the unit.  
2. Remove the clean-out plate, immediately above the burner (refer to Figure 8), to gain  
entry to the cleanout covers.  
3. Remove cleanout covers, the vent connector pipe to the chimney, the burner and the  
burner mounting plate. When removing the cleanout cover, special care must be taken  
not to damage the gaskets or high limit switch.  
NOTE: The high limit switch may be removed for easier access to the left-hand cleanout  
cover by removing the two (2) limit mounting screws. The limit must be reinstalled in the  
original orientation before operating the furnace.  
Should the gaskets separate, crack, break, or otherwise not be able to provide the  
necessary seal, the gasket must be replaced before reattaching the cleanout cover.

All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
4. With access to the inside of the heat exchanger through the burner cleanout openings and  
the vent pipe connection, it is now possible to use a long, flexible wire brush and an  
industrial-type vacuum cleaner to remove any soot build-up.  
NOTE: A one inch (outside diameter) vacuum cleaner hose will fit into the radiator.  
To vacuum and brush the outer radiator of the heat exchanger, go through the cleanout  
openings in both directions, as shown in Figure 8.  
Figure 8.  
Reassemble the furnace to the original factory-built condition. Remount the burner,  
being certain that the air tube is properly inserted into the chamber opening. If heavy  
soot deposits were found in the heat exchanger, this indicates that the burner may be out  
of adjustment. Reset the burner, as indicated under the “BURNER OPERATION AND  
ADJUSTMENT”, SECTION L.  
secured in place.  
: Do not start burner unless blower door is  
D. CLEANING OR REPLACING FLUE PIPES  
41  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.  
Flue pipes should be inspected during the annual maintenance check-up or during each  
subsequent service call.  
Check all flue pipes for restrictions due to soot, or carbon build-up, as well as foreign  
matter, or any materials, that cause the venting system to restrict the proper venting of  
combustion products. If a restriction is found, the flue pipe must be cleaned or replaced  
to ensure proper venting.  
Flue pipes should also be inspected for any signs of corrosion, deterioration or leakage  
that may cause combustion by-products to infiltrate the home or indoor environment.  
If signs of corrosion, deterioration or leakage are evident, the flue pipe must be replaced  
with a properly sized, agency-approved, flue pipe.  
E. EXTENDED SHUTDOWN  
If this furnace is shut down or off for an extended period of time, several steps can be taken  
to help insure a smooth and reliable start.  
ON SHUT DOWN:  
1. Close the fuel supply shutoff valve(s).  
2. Turn the furnace power switch “off” and disconnect electrical power to the unit.  
3. Fill the oil tank to prevent condensation (oil units only).  
4. If shutdown exceeds one season, an oil stabilizer should be added to the oil tank as  
recommended by your oil supplier (oil units only).  
ON START-UP:  
1. Have the heating system (and furnace) inspected and started by a qualified service  
person.  
2. Check for a clean, adequate supply of fuel.  
3. Set the room thermostat above room temperature.  
4. Open all shutoff valves in the fuel supply line.  
5. Turn “on” the main power at the disconnecting switch and at the furnace power switch to  
start the burner. If the burner does not start, immediately reset the burner primary  
(ignition) control module. On oil furnaces, if required, vent the fuel of air as soon as the  
burner motor starts. If the burner stops during venting, wait three to five minutes before  
attempting to restart.  
: Do not attempt to start burner when excess fuel has accumulated inside the  
furnace.  
6. Follow the “BURNER OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT” procedure in Section L.
