4- DO NOT draw the return air from a room where
another gas appliance (ie., a water heater) is
installed. Even though this furnace draws its com-
bustion air from outside of the structure, other gas
appliances that share a utility room may not. When
return air is drawn from a room, a negative pressure
is created in the room. If a gas appliance is operating
in a room with negative pressure, the flue products
can be pulled back down the vent pipe and into the
room. This reverse flow of the flue gas may result in
incomplete combustion and the formation of carbon
monoxide gas. This toxic gas might then be distrib-
uted through the house by the furnace duct system.
Your furnace is a gasappliance. It is critical that the gas
supplied tothe unit becompletely burnedto avoid thepro-
duction of carbon monoxide gas. Complete combustion
of the gas requires, but is not limited to, correct gas pres-
sure and gas flow rate, adequate combustion, air, and
proper venting.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide gas is invisible, odorless, and
toxic.
Exposure to this gas can cause personal injury and even
death toall occupants, including pets. Any itemthat is pow-
ered by or gives off heat from a combustion process (in-
cluding lawn mowers, automobiles, and fireplaces) has the
potential to produce carbon monoxide gas. Because of
this, Lennox recommends the use of a carbon monox-
ide detector in your home, even if you do not own gas
appliances. Reliable detectors are available at reason-
able retail prices. Contact your independent Lennox dealer
for more details about this investment in your safety.
Your furnace is designed to meetstandards set by nation-
al agencies, and tooperate safely when properly installed
