III. DOWNFLOW APPLICATIONS

A downflow furnace application is where furnace blower is located above combustion and controls section of furnace, and conditioned air is discharged downwards.

A. Condensate Trap Location

The condensate trap must be removed from the factory-installed blower shelf location and relocated in selected application location as shown in Fig. 2, 8, or 9.

To relocate condensate trap from the blower shelf to desired location, perform the following:

1.Remove 3 tubes connected to condensate trap.

2.Remove trap from blower shelf by gently pushing tabs inward and rotating trap.

3.Install casing hole filler cap (factory-supplied in loose parts bag) into blower shelf hole where trap was removed.

WARNING: Casing hole filler cap must be installed in blower shelf when condensate trap is relocated. Failure to follow this warning could result in electrical shock, fire, personal injury or death.

4.Install condensate trap into left-hand side casing hole by inserting tube connection stubs through casing hole and rotating until tabs snap into locking position.

5.Fill unused condensate trap casing holes with plastic filler caps (factory-supplied in loose parts bag).

B.Condensate Trap Tubing

NOTE: See Fig. 8 or 9 or tube routing label on main furnace door to check for proper connections.

1.Collector Box Drain Tube

a.Remove factory-installed plug from LOWER collector box drain tube (blue and white striped label).

b.Install removed clamp and plug into UPPER collector box drain tube (blue label) which was connected to condensate trap.

c.Connect LOWER collector box drain connection to condensate trap.

(1.) Condensate Trap Located on Left Side of Casing

(a.) Connect LOWER collector box drain tube (blue and white striped label) to condensate trap. Tube does not need to be cut.

(b.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.

(2.) Condensate Trap Located on Right Side of Casing

(a.) Install drain tube coupling (factory-supplied in loose parts bag) into collector box drain tube (blue and white striped label) which was pre- viously plugged.

(b.) Connect larger diameter drain tube (factory- supplied in loose parts bag) to drain tube coupling, extending collector box drain tube for connection to condensate trap.

(c.) Route extended collector box drain tube di- rectly from collector box drain to condensate trap as shown in Fig. 9.

(d.) Determine appropriate length and cut.

(e.) Connect to condensate trap.

(f.) Clamp tube to prevent any condensate leakage.

340MAV specifications

The Bryant 340MAV is a standout model in the Bryant lineup, designed to provide exceptional comfort, efficiency, and performance for residential heating and cooling needs. This unit offers a perfect blend of innovative technology and user-friendly features, making it an ideal choice for homeowners seeking reliability and quality.

One of the defining characteristics of the Bryant 340MAV is its impressive efficiency rating. With a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) of up to 18, this model ensures that homeowners can enjoy effective cooling during the summer months while minimizing energy consumption. Similarly, the heating efficiency is notable, with a high AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating. This makes the 340MAV an environmentally friendly option that also promotes cost savings on energy bills.

The 340MAV incorporates advanced technologies that enhance its performance. One such technology is the variable-speed compressor, which allows the system to adjust its output based on the demands of the home. This means that the unit operates more quietly and reduces energy usage by matching the cooling or heating output required. Additionally, the two-stage heating capability provides more consistent temperatures and improved comfort throughout the space.

Operating noise is a crucial factor in residential HVAC systems, and the Bryant 340MAV is designed with this in mind. Engineered for quiet operation, the unit features a sound-dampening design, including an insulated cabinet and a specially designed compressor that minimizes noise levels. Homeowners can enjoy a comfortable indoor climate without the disruptive racket often associated with traditional systems.

Furthermore, the Bryant 340MAV is equipped with a durable all-aluminum coil, which improves heat transfer efficiency while also being resistant to corrosion. This characteristic contributes to the longevity of the unit, ensuring that it can withstand various environmental factors without compromising performance.

Another key feature is the advanced control options that the Bryant 340MAV offers. Integration with smart thermostats allows homeowners to monitor and adjust their HVAC system remotely, ensuring optimal comfort at all times. Additionally, the system is compatible with Bryant's Perfect Airâ„¢ filtration system, enhancing indoor air quality by reducing pollutants and allergens.

In summary, the Bryant 340MAV is a high-efficiency heating and cooling solution that brings together cutting-edge technology, quiet operation, and user-friendly features. With its focus on comfort and energy savings, it stands out as a prime choice for homeowners looking to invest in a reliable HVAC system.
