!WARNING

PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury.

Use care when cutting support rods in filters to protect against flying pieces and sharp rod ends. Wear safety glasses, gloves, and appropriate protective clothing.

COMBUSTION AREA AND VENT SYSTEM

Visually inspect the combustion area and vent system before each heating season. Make sure that all PVC pipes leading into the combustion area and vent are free from any cracks and sags.

!WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

If holes are found in the pipes or if any portion has become disconnected, toxic fumes can escape into your home. DO NOT OPERATE YOUR FURNACE. Call your dealer for service.

Check the combustion-air intake and vent pipe on the outside of your home for blockage.

When dirt, soot, scale, or rust is allowed to build up, your furnace can suffer a loss of efficiency and perform improperly. Accumulations on the main burners can result in firing out of normal sequence. This delayed ignition creates an alarmingly loud sound.

!CAUTION

UNIT OPERATION HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in property damage.

If your furnace makes an especially loud noise when the main burners light, shut down your furnace and call your dealer.

To inspect the combustion area and vent system, you will need a flashlight. Refer to Fig. 3 and proceed as follows:

1.Turn off the gas and electrical supplies to the furnace and remove the main furnace door. (See Fig. 8, 9, and 10.)

2.Remove burner enclosure front. (See Fig. 36.)

Inspect the gas burners, igniter area, and remainder of furnace for dirt, rust, soot, or scale.

!WARNING

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD

Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

If dirt, rust, soot, or scale accumulations are found, call your dealer. Do not operate your furnace.

3.Inspect the combustion-air and vent PVC pipes for sags, holes, cracks, water leaks, blockage or disconnections. Horizontal portions of pipes must slope downward toward furnace.

4.Reinstall burner enclosure front.

5.If your furnace is free of the above conditions, replace main furnace door and turn on electrical and gas supplies to the furnace. (See Fig. 15, 16, and 17.)

6.Start the furnace and observe its operation. Watch the burner flames to see if they are clear blue, almost transparent. (See Fig. 37.) If you observe a suspected malfunction, or the burner flames are not clear blue, call your dealer.

The 58UVB furnace exemplifies what consumers have come to expect from the Carrier brand in terms of engineering excellence and energy efficiency.

One of the standout features of the Carrier 58UVB is its two-stage heating capability. This technology allows the furnace to operate at a lower capacity during mild heating demands, which provides a more consistent temperature and increases overall energy savings. When colder temperatures require additional heat, the furnace transitions to its higher stage, ensuring that the home remains warm and comfortable regardless of the weather outside.

The 58UVB furnace is equipped with a variable-speed blower motor. This innovative feature enhances overall comfort by adjusting the airflow according to the heating needs in real-time. It operates quietly and efficiently, minimizing energy consumption while distributing heat evenly throughout the home. The soft-start technology also reduces drafts and temperature swings, resulting in a more pleasant indoor environment.

Another important characteristic of the Carrier 58UVB is its ability to integrate with smart home technology. This furnace can be equipped with Carrier's innovative iComfort S30 smart thermostat, allowing homeowners to monitor and control their heating system remotely via a smartphone app. This integration enables users to adjust settings, view energy consumption, and schedule maintenance reminders, enhancing both convenience and efficiency.

In terms of energy efficiency, the Carrier 58UVB boasts an impressive Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of up to 80%. This high rating indicates that a significant portion of the fuel consumed is converted into usable heat, resulting in lower energy bills and a reduced carbon footprint. The furnace also features an insulated cabinet, which helps maintain efficiency by minimizing heat loss during operation.

Additionally, the 58UVB model comes with advanced safety features, including an integrated control board that helps manage operation and diagnostics. The durable heat exchanger is designed to ensure long-lasting performance and is backed by a robust warranty, further instilling confidence in this top-tier heating solution.

Overall, the Carrier 58UVB gas furnace combines advanced technology, energy efficiency, and user-friendly features, making it an excellent choice for homeowners in need of reliable heating performance.
