INSTALLATION AND FRAMING INSTRUCTIONS

The variety of installations possible for this whirlpool may require framing procedures other than those shown. Locate studs as required. Ensure roughing-in dimensions are proper, plumb and square. Provisions must be made in all installations for an access opening for servicing the pump and controls. It is strongly recommended that an additional opening be provided for access to the drain components.

NOTE: The apron should not be used as the primary access opening.

1.Position the whirlpool into the installation opening and level the deck, shimming the integral support feet as necessary.

2.Install drain components to the whirlpool following the manufacturers instructions. Before replacing your whirlpool for final installation, be certain that an opening has been provided in the sub-floor for the drain. See the roughing-in drawing for suggested opening size and location dimensions.

3.Replace whirlpool and re-shim the integral support feet, shimming the entire length of the support feet. Secure the shims using construction adhesive, silicone, mortar or equivalent materials. While not a necessity, the use of a foundation base consisting of cement (e.g. Sakrete), mortar, or grout will help provide a solid and secure installation.

2806E specifications

The American Standard 2806E is a high-efficiency gas furnace designed to deliver warmth and comfort while maximizing energy efficiency and reliability. Built with the homeowner in mind, this model showcases a myriad of features and technologies that set it apart in the competitive market of heating solutions.

One of the standout characteristics of the American Standard 2806E is its impressive Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating, which typically reaches up to 96%. This means that it converts a high percentage of the fuel it consumes into usable heat, ultimately resulting in lower energy bills and a reduced carbon footprint. For homeowners seeking to minimize their environmental impact, the 2806E is a commendable choice.

The furnace is equipped with a variable-speed blower motor, which adjusts the airflow according to the heating needs of the home. This technology not only contributes to achieving optimal comfort by minimizing temperature fluctuations but also enhances energy efficiency by using only the necessary amount of power needed for heating. The quieter operation of this variable-speed technology also improves the overall comfort of your living space.

Another important feature of the 2806E is its modulating gas valve, which allows for precise control over the gas supply, enabling the furnace to operate at different heating levels. This capability ensures that the furnace can respond effectively to changes in temperature demands, providing consistent heating without unnecessary energy waste.

The 2806E also incorporates a robust noise-reduction system, designed to minimize operational sounds. This is a notable advantage for families who value a quiet home environment. This model is factory-equipped with a heavy-gauge steel cabinet that not only enhances durability but also contributes to a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

For added convenience and ease of use, the American Standard 2806E includes advanced diagnostic capabilities. This feature simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting, allowing technicians to identify and address issues quickly, ultimately extending the lifespan of the furnace.

In summary, the American Standard 2806E combines high efficiency, advanced technologies, and reliable performance, making it a top choice for homeowners looking to enhance their heating system. Its features, including a high AFUE rating, variable-speed blower, modulating gas valve, and robust noise-reduction mechanisms, provide exceptional comfort while ensuring that the investment in a new furnace pays off in energy savings and reliable performance for years to come.
