Fig. 22—Crawlspace Horizontal Application

Maintain a 1-in. clearance from combustible materials to supply air ductwork for a distance of 36 in. horizontally from the furnace. See NFPA 90B or local code for further requirements.

B. Ductwork Acoustical Treatment

Metal duct systems that do not have a 90 degree elbow and 10 ft of main duct to the first branch take-off may require internal acoustical lining. As an alternative, fibrous ductwork may be used if constructed and installed in accordance with the latest edition of SMACNA construction standard on fibrous glass ducts. Both acoustical lining and fibrous ductwork shall comply with NFPA 90B as tested by UL Standard 181 for Class 1 Rigid air ducts.

C. Supply Air Connections

UPFLOW FURNACES

Connect supply-air duct to 3/4-in. flange on furnace supply-air outlet. The supply-air duct attachment must ONLY be connected to furnace supply-/outlet-air duct flanges or air conditioning coil casing (when used). DO NOT cut main furnace casing to attach supply side air duct, humidifier, or other accessories. All accessories MUST be connected external to furnace main casing.

DOWNFLOW FURNACES

Connect supply-air duct to supply-air opening on furnace. The supply-air duct attachment must ONLY be connected to furnace supply/outlet or air conditioning coil casing (when used), when installed on non-combustible material. When installed on combustible material, supply-air duct attachment must ONLY be connected to an accessory subbase or factory approved air conditioning coil casing. DO NOT cut main furnace casing to attach supply side air duct, humidifier, or other accessories. All accessories MUST be connected external to furnace main casing.

HORIZONTAL FURNACES

Connect supply-air duct to supply air opening on furnace. The supply-air duct attachment must ONLY be connected to furnace supply/outlet or air conditioning coil casing (when used). DO NOT cut main furnace casing to attach supply side air duct, humidifier, or other accessories. All accessories MUST be connected external to furnace main casing.

D. Return Air Connections

UPFLOW FURNACES

The return-air duct must be connected to bottom, sides (left or right), or a combination of bottom and side(s) of main furnace casing. Bypass humidifier may be attached into unused side return air portion of the furnace casing. DO NOT connect any portion of return-air duct to back of furnace casing.

DOWNFLOW AND HORIZONTAL FURNACES

The return-air duct must be connected to return-air opening provided. DO NOT cut into casing sides or back to attach any portion of return-air duct. Bypass humidifier connections should be made at ductwork or coil casing sides exterior to furnace.

The 355MAV also features significant advancements in sound reduction technology. Designed with noise-absorbing materials and a quiet operation mode, this unit ensures that indoor comfort is maintained without the disruption of loud operational sounds. This makes it a perfect choice for residential settings, particularly in areas where noise sensitivity is a concern.

Energy efficiency is another key characteristic of the Bryant 355MAV. The unit is certified with a high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) rating, which means it meets strict energy consumption standards. This not only reflects its eco-friendliness but also contributes to significant savings on utility bills over time.

Moreover, the Bryant 355MAV uses environmentally friendly refrigerants that comply with EPA regulations, further solidifying its commitment to sustainability. This, combined with durable construction and a reliable warranty, ensures that homeowners can expect lasting performance from the system.

In conclusion, the Bryant 355MAV offers an impressive array of features, including a variable speed compressor, advanced control systems, sound reduction technology, and high energy efficiency. These characteristics make it an exceptional option for those seeking a reliable and efficient HVAC solution in their homes. With its commitment to comfort, savings, and sustainability, the Bryant 355MAV continues to be a popular choice among homeowners looking to enhance their indoor environments.
