Refer to Condensate Drain Protection section for recommenda- tions and procedures.
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
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
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
5.Fill unused condensate trap casing holes with plastic filler caps
B.Condensate Trap Tubing
NOTE: See Fig. 8 or 9 or tube routing label on main furnace door to check for proper connections.

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
(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.
