GENERAL INFORMATION1. NOTE: This furnace is shipped with
heat exchanger support bracketsinstalled under the back of the heatexchanger. These may be removedbefore installation, but it is notrequired.
LOCATION
THIS FURNACE IS NOT APPROVEDFOR INSTALLATION IN A MOBILEHOME. DO NOT INSTALL THISFURNACE IN A MOBILE HOME.INSTALLATION IN A MOBILE HOMECOULD CAUSE FIRE, PROPERTYDAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY ORDEATH.2. IMPORTANT: This furnace is not
approved or recommended forinstallation on its back, with accessdoors facing upwards.
3. This furnace is suitable forinstallation in buildings constructedon-site. This heating unit should becentralized with respect to the heatdistribution system as much aspracticable.
4. NOTE: These furnaces areapproved for installation in attics, as
well as alcoves, utility rooms,closets and crawlspaces.
5. IMPORTANT: Support this unit wheninstalled. For attic or crawl spaceinstallation, horizontal furnaces maybe installed on combustible woodflooring or by using support brackets.See Figure 1.
6. IMPORTANT: If installing in a utilityroom, be sure the door is wideenough to:a. allow the largest part of the
furnace to pass; orb. allow any other appliance (such
as a water heater) to pass.
The (-)GPQ/(-)GLQ series furnaces aredesign certified by CSA for use withnatural and propane gases as follows:
As a Category I furnace, it may bevented vertically with type B-1 ventpipe and also may be commonvented as described in theseinstructions.
This furnace should be installed inaccordance with the American NationalStandard Z223.1 - latest edition bookletentitled “National Fuel Gas Code”(NFPA 54) (in Canada, CSA B149.1and .2 Installation Codes for gasburning appliances), and therequirements or codes of the local utilityor other authority having jurisdictionincluding local plumbing or waste watercodes.The National Appliance EnergyConservation Act (NAECA) of 1987states that any gas furnacemanufactured after January 1, 1992,must have a minimum Annual FuelUtilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 78%.The higher the AFUE percentage themore usable heat energy the consumergets for every dollar of fuel purchased.This is similar to the EPA's minimumgas mileage requirement forautomobiles. It gives the consumer arelatively easy way to make directefficiency comparisons betweendifferent furnace brands and styles.A high AFUE value, which translates
into a low operating cost, is not the onlyconcern that consumers have. Theyalso want a furnace with a reasonableinstalled cost. They want a furnace thatprovides them with comfort – their mainconcern. And they expect a furnace withexceptional reliability and longevity.Gas furnace manufacturers are alwaysstriving to provide consumers with thebest furnace value. The Low ProfileFurnace addresses all those consumerneeds. It gives exceptional efficiencywith a low installation cost. It deliversthe comfort the customer wants alongwith the reliability they expect.The key to all these customer benefits isthe furnace's heat exchanger. Thematerials used to construct the furnacein general and the heat exchanger inparticular make it a rugged, long lastingunit. The unique heat exchanger designprovides the customer with a furnaceonly 34 inches high. This gives theconsumer a unit easily installed inalmost every location that accepts allcustomary accessories.With the introduction of higher efficiencyfurnaces, special attention must be paidto the venting system. Only listedventing systems may be used as statedin the installation instructions and theNational Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1(NFPA 54), or the Canadian CAN/CGAB149.1 and B149.2 Installation Codesfor Gas Burning Appliances. Since
furnace technology and ventingrequirements are changing, awarenessof local, state, and federal codes andindustry changes is imperative.NOTE: Always perform a proper heatloss calculation before specifying thefurnace size. This ensures that thefurnace is sized to adequately,economically, heat the building andprovide the correct airflow for yourapplication.IMPORTANT: PROPERAPPLICATION, INSTALLATION ANDMAINTENANCE OF THIS FURNACEIS A MUST IF CONSUMERS ARE TORECEIVE THE FULL BENEFITS FORWHICH THEY HAVE PAID.Additional helpful publications availablefrom the “National Fire ProtectionAssociation” are: NFPA-90A –Installation of Air Conditioning andVentilating Systems 1985 or latestedition. NFPA-90B – Warm Air Heatingand Air Conditioning Systems 1984.These publications are available from:

FURNACE CATEGORYINFORMATIONThis furnace is shipped as a Category Itype induced draft furnace. A CategoryI furnace operates with a nonpositivevent pressure and has a vent gastemperature at least 140°F above thedew point of the vent gases. ACategory I type may be a draft hoodequipped furnace or have a fanassisted combustion system (induceddraft). The inducer is used to pull flueproducts through the combustionchamber and as they leave thefurnace, most of the energy has beendissipated. The buoyant effect of theflue gases provides venting to theoutdoors.
During the off cycle, the inducer is offand there is very little flow through thevent, cooling the vent. During the oncycle there is no dilution airflow, aswith a draft hood type furnace.Although the vent heats up rapidlywithout dilution air, the flue productscontain more water vapor, whichresults in a higher dew pointtemperature. It is most important thatyou follow the guidelines in theseinstructions to prevent the possibleformation of condensation in theventing system.
As a Category I furnace it may bevented vertically with type B-1 ventpipe and also may be common vented,as described in these instructions.

drafts, concealed hot or cold waterpipes, lighting fixtures, radiation fromfireplace, rays of sun, lamps, television,radios or air streams from registers.Refer to the instructions packed withthe thermostat for best anticipatoradjustment or selection or see below.
HEAT ANTICIPATOR SETTINGS
For adjusting the thermostat heatanticipator setting; (a) add the currentdraw of the various components in thesystem or (b) using jumper wire,measure the current flow between theR and W thermostat circuits. Set thethermostat heat anticipator accordingto the current flow measured.
The room thermostat must becompatible with the integrated furnacecontrol on the furnace. Generally, allthermostats that are not of the “currentrobbing” type are compatible with theintegrated furnace control used.
NOTE: An isolation relay (part number42-25104-01) may assist with “currentrobbing” type thermostat compatibilityproblems. Use a single-pole, single-throw relay with a 24-volt AC coil. Thecontacts should be rated for .5 ampsminimum at 24 volts. See Figure 16.
Install the room thermostat inaccordance with the instruction sheetin the box with the thermostat. Run thethermostat lead wires inside the controlcompartment. Connect the thermostatas shown on the wiring diagram. Neverinstall the thermostat on an outsidewall or where it will be influenced by

80+ HIGH ALTITUDEINSTRUCTIONS(TABLES 6 & 9)
THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE(NFGC) GUIDELINES SHOULD BEFOLLOWED WHEN CONVERTINGTHESE FURNACES FOR HIGHALTITUDE OPERATION.
34" 80 Plus furnaces installed above2,000 ft. require the furnace to be de-rated 4% per thousand feet.
IMPORTANT: Factory installed orificesare calculated and sized based on a sealevel Natural Gas heating value of 1075BTU per cubic ft. NOTE: Orifices are available throughyour local distributor.
Reference Tables 6 and 9 forappropriate orifice sizing.
The following are examples of orificesizing using the National Fuel Gas CodeAppendix F:
For a simplified estimation of orifice sizebased on gas heating value andelevation, Tables 6 and 9 may be used.However, calculations are the bestmethod.
Example: 900 BTU/ft3 RegionalNatural Gas Heating Value
I/H = Q25000 / 900 = 27.78 ft3
I = Sea Level input (per burner): 25000H = Sea Level Heating Value: 900Q = 27.78 ft3 Natural Gas per hour.
From Table F.1 of National Fuel GasCode Handbook, 2002 (3.5� w.c.column).
Orifice required at Sea Level: #40
From Table F.4 of National Fuel GasCode Handbook, 2002Orifice required at 5000 ft. elevation (4%de-rate per thousand ft): #42
Orifice required at 8000 ft. elevation (4%de-rate per thousand ft.): #44
Example: 1050 BTU/ft3 RegionalNatural Gas Heating Value
I / H = Q25000 / 1050 = 23.81ft3
I = Sea Level input (per burner): 25000H = Sea Level Heating Value: 1050Q = 23.81 ft3 Natural Gas per hour.
From Table F.1 of Natural Fuel GasCode Handbook, 2002 (3.5� w.c.column).
Orifice required at Sea Level: #43
From Table F.4 of National Fuel GasCode Handbook, 2002
Orifice required at 5000 ft. elevation(4% de-rate per thousand ft.): #45
Orifice required at 8000 ft elevation (4%de-rate per thousand ft): #47
LP GAS (TABLE 7)NOTE: Keep any parts removed duringLP conversion procedure stored withthe product literature for future use.
LP Gas is a manufactured gas that hasconsistent heating value across mostregions.
The NFGC guidelines are used with thefollowing exception:
The recommended LP Gas highaltitude orifice selections differ slightlyin that the NFGC LP orifice chart, asthey are not accurate for Rheemproducts. The National Fuel Gas CodeLP orifices are based on an 11" ofwater column pressure at the orifice,which differs from products that use 10"of water column at the orifice. Thisdifference requires a deviation from theNFGC orifice size recommendations.The Sea Level input should still bereduced by 4% per thousand ft. and theorifice size must be selected based onthe reduced input in Table 7.

ALTERNATE METHOD FORCANADIAN HIGH-ALTITUDEDERATEIn Canada, unless an orifice change isspecifically mandated by local codes,an alternate method of altitude derationthrough a reduction in manifoldpressure is acceptable as described inTable 8. This information is based on aheating value of 1000 BTU per cubicfeet of natural gas, and 2500 BTU percubic feet of LP gas. IMPORTANT: Actual input rates mustbe measured onsite with manifoldpressure adjustment to ensure that anactual 10% reduction in input rate isachieved.Once this field adjustment has beenmade, the label shown in Figure 20must be affixed in a conspicuouslocation on the front of the furnacecabinet.NOTE: This label is supplied in theinformation packet shipped with eachfurnace.

START-UP PROCEDUREDIRECT SPARK IGNITIONLIGHTING INSTRUCTIONSThis appliance is equipped with a directspark ignition device. This device lightsthe main burners each time the roomthermostat (closes) calls for heat. Seelighting instructions on the furnace.
TO START FURNACE
1. BE SURE THAT THE MANUALGAS CONTROL HAS BEEN IN THE“OFF” POSITION FOR AT LEASTFIVE MINUTES. DO NOTATTEMPT TO MANUALLY LIGHTTHE MAIN BURNERS. FAILURETO FOLLOW THIS WARNING CANCAUSE A FIRE OR ANEXPLOSION RESULTING INPROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONALINJURY OR DEATH.
2. Set the room thermostat to thelowest setting.
3. Turn the gas control knob to the“On” position, or move the gascontrol lever to the “On” position.
4. Replace the control access door.5. Turn on the electrical power.6. Set the room thermostat to a point
above room temperature to light themain burners. After the burners arelit, set room thermostat to a desiredtemperature.
TO SHUT DOWN FURNACE1. Set the room thermostat to its lowest
setting.2. Shut off the gas to main burners by
turning the gas control knob to the“Off” position, or by depressing thegas control lever and moving it tothe “Off” position.
SHOULD OVERHEATING OCCUROR THE GAS SUPPLY FAIL TOSHUT OFF, SHUT OFF THE MANUALGAS VALVE TO THE APPLIANCEBEFORE SHUTTING OFF THEELECTRICAL SUPPLY. FAILURE TODO SO CAN CAUSE AN EXPLOSIONOR FIRE RESULTING IN PROPERTYDAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY ORDEATH.Sequence of operation with a singlestage thermostata. Connect the “W” terminal on the
thermostat to the W2 terminal on thecontrol board.
b. When there is a call for heat, the “R”and “W2” contacts close and the IFCruns a self check routine to verifythat the pressure switch contacts areopen. The limit switch contacts areconstantly monitored.
c. The induced draft motor starts onhigh until the low pressure switchcontacts close (a maximum of 60
WARNING!
seconds), and then changes to lowspeed. After a 30 second pre-purge,the spark ignitor energizes and thelow stage of the gas valve opens,lighting the burners.
d. After the gas valve opens, theremote flame sensor must proveignition for one second using theprocess of flame rectification. If theburners do not light, the systemgoes through another ignitionsequence. It does this up to 4 times.(2 tries on low fire and 2 tries onhigh fire.)
e. The main blower starts on lowspeed 30 seconds after the burnerslight. The furnace operates on lowfire for 12 minutes and then, if thethermostat is not satisfied, shifts tohigh fire, causing the draft inducer togo to high speed, the gas valve to100% and the main blower goes toheat speed.
f. When the thermostat cycle ends, thegas valve closes, and the burnersgo out.
g. The draft inducer will continuerunning for a 10 second (low speed)or 5 second (high speed) postpurge.
h. The main blower will run for 90seconds on high speed or 120seconds on low speed. (This timingis field adjustable, for 60, 90, 120 or150 seconds). See Figure 20 forswitch settings.
Sequence if the system doesn’t lightor doesn’t sense flame:a. If flame is not sensed within 8
seconds after the gas valve opens,the valve closes and the ignitor isde-energized. The induced draftmotor will run for 60 seconds on low,stop momentarily, and then restart.
b. The ignition process goes throughone more try on low fire. If this fails,there are two tries on high fire with a30 second interpurge between trials.During high fire ignition attempts,the inducer steps to high speed, thehigh pressure switch closes (bothpressure switch closes (bothpressure switches are now closed),and the gas valve steps to 100%.
c. If there is no ignition after the 2ndtrial on high fire, the furnace goesinto soft lockout for one hour.
d. The sequence repeats after a onehour delay and continues repeatinguntil ignition is successful or the callfor heat is terminated.
e. To reset the lockout, make andbreak power either at the thermostator at the unit disconnect switch for 5to 10 seconds. The furnace will thengo through another set of trials forignition.
f. If flame is established andmaintained during the trial forignition period and flame is lost, the
gas valve is de-energized, the draftinducer continues to run, and controlbegins timing the inter-purge delay.The indoor blower motor will beenergized and/or remain energizedon low speed for low fire and heatspeed for high fire for the selecteddelay off time.When the inter-purge delay is over,the control initiates another ignitiontrial period. The control will recycleup to 5 flame losses (4 re-cycles)within a single call for heat beforegoing into lockout.
Sequence of operation with twostage thermostatConnect W1 and W2 terminals on thethermostat to W and W2 terminals onthe control board.Call for 1st stage heata. R and W thermostat contacts close
and the control module runs a self-check routine. After the controlmodule verifies that both sets ofpressure switch contacts are open,the induced draft motor starts onhigh until the low pressure switchcontacts close (a maximum of 60seconds), then changes to lowspeed.
b. After a 30 second pre-purge thespark igniter energizes and the gasvalve (low stage) opens, lighting theburners.
c. After the burners light, the remoteflame sensor must prove ignition. Ifthe burners do not light, the systemgoes through another ignitionsequence. It does this up to 4 times(2 tries on low fire and 2 tries onhigh fire).
d. The main blower starts on lowspeed 30 seconds after the gasvalve opens. The furnace continuesto run on low until the call for heat issatisfied or the 2nd stage contactsclose. If the 1st stage call for heat issatisfied the gas valve closes andthe induced draft motor continuesrunning for a 10 second post purgetime. the main blower runs for 120seconds (this timing is fieldadjustable).

continues to run in this mode until the1st stage heat call is satisfied. Thesystem will shut down as noted in “c,”under 1st stage call for heat.
FAN CONTROLThe furnace is equipped with anintegrated furnace control whichautomatically starts the main blower 30seconds after the gas valve opens. Itstops the main blower a set time afterthe heat call ends. The off timing iscontrolled by the first two dip switcheson the control board. See Figure 20.
The blower runs on low speed when thefurnace is in the low fire mode and onthe HEAT speed in the high fire mode.
The integrated control board alsocontains the low voltage terminals forthe thermostat connection, and islocated in the blower compartment.
SETTING BLOWER TIMINGSThe control board has six quick connectterminals for connecting motor speedleads. These are:
1. LOW – This is low speed. Themotor runs on low when the furnaceis in the low fire mode or when thethermostat is in the “FAN” position.
2. COOL – Factory wired at highspeed. This may be changed if alower cooling speed is desired.
3. HEAT – Factory wired at the normalhigh input blower speed.
4. HEAT/COOL – Connect here if therequired HEAT and COOL speedsare the same.
IMPORTANT: Do not connect anyleads to the HEAT or COOL terminals ifthe HEAT/COOL terminal is used.
5. M1 – Connect unused motor lead.
6. M2 – Connect unused motor lead.
The unit comes from the factory set tostop the blower 120 seconds after thethermostat is satisfied in heating and 45
seconds after the thermostat issatisfied in cooling. This timing can befield adjusted. To change the blower offtiming, set DIP switches 1 and 2 asshown in Figure 20.
GAS FURNACE (DIRECTDRIVE) INSTRUCTIONS FORCHANGING BLOWER SPEED
DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICALSUPPLY TO THE FURNACE BEFOREATTEMPTING TO CHANGE THEBLOWER SPEED. FAILURE TO DOSO CAN CAUSE ELECTRICALSHOCK RESULTING IN SEVEREPERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
The blower motor is wired for blowerspeeds required for normal operation.The LOW speed, which is for the lowfire operation should never beincreased. The HEAT speed is factorywired for the regular high fire speed.This may be changed if required to

A properly calibrated manometer orgauge is required for accurate gaspressure readings.
1. When adjusting the furnace input,the high fire input should bechecked. The high fire manifoldpressure should be 3.5’ W.C. Followthese steps to be sure the furnace ishigh fire mode:
a. With a single stage thermostat,the furnace runs for 12 minuteson low fire before shifting to highfire. To be certain that it is on highfire, jump terminals “W” and “W2”on the control board in the blowercompartment.
b. With a two stage thermostat, setthe thermostat to its highestsetting to keep the furnaceoperating in the high fire mode.
2. To adjust high fire manifoldpressure, remove the adjustmentcover screw on the outlet end of thegas valve and turn the adjustmentscrew clockwise to increase thepressure and counterclockwise toreduce the pressure. Replace thecover screw securely. See Figure21.
3. The low fire manifold pressureshould be 1.7� W.C. As mentionedabove, the furnace remains in thelow fire mode for 12 minutes upon aheat call with a single stagethermostat. With a two stagethermostat, disconnect thethermostat lead to the “W2” terminalon the control board and the furnacewill remain in the low fire mode. Toadjust the pressure, remove theregulator cover, on top of the valve,and adjust as noted under Step 2,above. After the adjustment replacethe screw cover securely.
NOTE: Use a 3/32� allen wrench formaking the pressure adjustment.
On furnaces using LP gas, the LP gassupply pressure must be set between11.0� and 13.0� W.C. by means of thetank or branch supply regulators. Setthe furnace manifold pressure at 10�W.C. at the gas control valve.
To change orifice spuds:
1. Shut off the manual main gas valveand remove the gas supply pipingfrom the gas valve.
2. Remove the four screws securingthe manifold assembly and removethe assembly.
3. Replace the orifice spuds.
4. Reassemble in reverse order.
5. Turn the gas supply back on andcheck for proper operation andmanifold pressure.
Check of input is important to preventover firing of the furnace beyond itsdesign-rated input. NEVER SETINPUT ABOVE THAT SHOWN ONTHE RATING PLATE.
To check furnace input:
1. Make certain that all other gasappliances are shut off, with theexception of pilot burners.
2. Start the furnace
3. Time the meter to measure the timerequired to burn one cubic foot ofgas.
4. Use Table 8 to determine input rate.

The importance of proper air flow overthe heat exchanger cannot be overemphasized.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT EACH DUCTSYSTEM BE SIZED AND INSTALLEDFOR THE SPECIFIC APPLICATIONBY PROPERLY APPLYING THEAPPROPRIATE INDUSTRYACCEPTED STANDARD. IF LESSTHAN MINIMUM STANDARDS AREAPPLIED, THE EQUIPMENT USERCOULD EXPECT TO EXPERIENCEHIGHER UTILITY BILLS, MAJORCOMPONENT FAILURE, VARYINGDEGREES OF AIR NOISE OR OTHERUNSATISFACTORY ISSUES, OVERWHICH THE MANUFACTURER HASNO CONTROL.
TEMPERATURE RISE CHECK
To determine if the air flow is correct,make a temperature rise check.
1. Insert a thermometer in the supplyair duct as close to the furnace aspossible yet out of a direct linefrom the heat exchanger. SeeFigure 22.
2. Insert a thermometer in the returnair duct as close to the furnace aspossible.
3. Operate the furnace.
4. When the thermometer in thesupply air duct stops rising(approximately five minutes),subtract the return air temperaturefrom the supply air temperature.The difference is the temperaturerise.
5. Compare the measuredtemperature rise to the approvedtemperature rise range listed onthe furnace name plate. SeeFigure 23.
If the measured temperature rise isabove the approved range, the air flowis too low. More air must be moved byspeeding up the blower, by removingrestrictions in the duct system, or byadding more supply or return air duct. Ifthe measured temperature rise is belowthe approved range, the air flow is toomuch. Use lower speed tap on themulti-speed blower.
Ideally the measured temperature riseshould be in the middle of the range.
The rise range is the same for high andlow inputs.

LIMIT CONTROLThe high limit cut-off temperature is setat the factory and cannot be adjusted.The temperature setting prevents theair temperature leaving the furnacefrom exceeding the maximum outlet airtemperature, which, if exceeded, willshut the furnace down.
There are several reasons for a limitswitch to open and almost alwaysinvolve low airflow through the furnace.
1. A dirty or restricted air filter.
2. A dirty or restricted cooling coil.
3. Undersized or restricted return airsystem.
4. Undersized or restricted supply airsystem.
5. A problem affecting the mainblower:
A. A wrong speed tap selection.
B. Failing motor bearings.
C. Low voltage to the motor.
D. Dirty blower wheel.
E. Wrong motor rotation.
F. Blower wheel slipping on theF. motor shaft.
6. Overfiring the furnace with too muchgas pressure.
7. Ventilation problems.
FLAME ROLL-OUTSAFETY SWITCHESFurnaces are equipped with safetyswitches to protect against flame roll-out conditions in the burnercompartment, which, if tripped, willterminate the heating cycle. In theevent of a flame roll-out condition, theswitch will shut the furnace down.Switches for the (-)GPQ furnaces arelocated on either side of the burnercover plate and just above the burnerson the blower divider panel. The (-)GLQrequires only one switch on the left sideof burner cover plate. If a switch istripped, it must be manually reset. DONOT jumper or reset this switch. If thisswitch should trip, a qualified installer,service agency or the gas suppliershould be called to diagnose and/orcorrect the source of tripping. If thisunit is mounted in a closet, the doormust be closed when making thischeck.
PRESSURE SWITCHThis furnace is equipped with anormally-open pressure switch thatmonitors pressure conditions within thefurnace vent system during the heatingcycle.
There are several reasons for thepressure switch not to close.
1. An inoperative induced draft blower.
2. A loose or leaky pressure switchhose.
3. A blockage in the vent.
4. Severe downdrafts canceling thedraft from the inducer fan.
5. A leaky gasket at the induced draftblower.
6. Improperly sized or installed vent.
The pressure switch contacts mustopen before the unit can go throughanother heating cycle.
