WARNING
Duct systems and register sizes must be properly designed for
the CFM and external static pressure rating of the furnace. Design
the ductwork in accordance with the recommended methods of
“Air Conditioning Contractors of America” Manual D.
Install the duct system in accordance with Standards of the Na-
tional Board of Fire Underwriters for the Installation of Air Condition-
ing, Warm Air Heating and Ventilating Systems. Pamphlets No.
90A and 90B.
A closed return duct system must be used, with the return duct
connected to the furnace. NOTE:
Ductwork must never be at-
tached to the back of the furnace. For upflow installations requir-
ing 1800 CFM or more, use either two side returns or bottom
return or a combination of side /bottom. Flexible joints may be
used for supply and return connections to reduce noise transmis-
sion. To prevent the blower from interfering with combustion air or
draft when a central return is used, a connecting duct must be
installed between the unit and the utility room wall. Never use a
room, closet, or alcove as a return air chamber.
CHECKING D UCT S TATIC
Refer to your furnace rating plate for the maximum ESP (ex-
ternal duct static) rating.
Total external static refers to everything external to the fur-
nace cabinet. Cooling coils, filters, ducts, grilles, registers
must all be considered when reading your total external static
pressure. The supply duct pressure must be read between
the furnace and the cooling coil. This reading is usually taken
by removing the “A” shaped block off plate from the end on the
coil; drilling a test hole in it and reinstalling the block off plate.
Take a duct static reading at the test hole. Tape up the test
hole after your test is complete. The negative pressure must
be read between the filter and the furnace blower.
Too much external static pressure will result in insufficient air
that can cause excessive temperature rise. This can cause
limit switch tripping and heat exchanger failure.
To determine total external duct static pressure, proceed as
follows;
1. With clean filters in the furnace, use a draft gauge (in-
clined manometer) to measure the static pressure of the
return duct at the inlet of the furnace. (Negative Pressure)
2. Measure the static pressure of the supply duct. (Positive
Pressure)
3. The difference between the two numbers is .4” w.c.
Example:
static reading from return duct = -.1" w.c.
static reading from supply duct = .3" w.c.
total external static pressure on this system = .4" w.c.
NOTE: Both readings may be taken simultaneously and read
directly on the manometer if so desired. If an air conditioner
coil or Electronic Air Cleaner is used in conjunction with the
furnace, the readings must also include theses components,
as shown in the following drawing.
