Goodman Mfg CPG SERIES Circulating AIR and Filters, Venting Condensate Drain Connection

NOTE: The gas connection size at the unit does NOT establish the size of the supply line.

3.These units are designed for either natural or propane (LP) gas and are specifically constructed at the factory for only one of these fuels. The fuels are NOT interchangeable. However, the furnace can be converted in the field from natural gas to LP gas with the appropriate factory kit (see unit Technical Manual for the appropriate kit). Only a qualified contractor, experienced with natural and propane gas systems, should attempt conversion. Kit instructions must be followed closely to assure safe and reliable unit operation.

4.With all units on a common line operating under full fire, natural gas main supply pressure should be adjusted to approximately 7.0" w.c., measured at the unit gas valve. If the gas pressure at the unit is greater than 10.5" w.c., the contractor must furnish and install an external type positive shutoff service pressure regulator. The unit will not function satisfactorily if supply gas pressure is less than 5.5" w.c. or greater than 10.5" w.c..

NOTE: A minimum horizontal distance of 48" between the regulator and the furnace flue discharge is required.

5.With all units on a common line operating under full LP gas main supply pressure should be at least 11.0" w.c. and must be no greater than 13.0" w.c., measured at the unit gas valve. Unit will not function satisfactorily if supply gas pressure is less than 11.0" w.c. or greater than 13.0" w.c..

6.All pipe connections should be sealed with a pipe thread compound, which is resistant to the fuel used with the furnace. A soapy water solution should be used to check all joints for leaks. A tap is located on the entering side of the gas valve for test gauge connection to measure supply (main) gas pressure. Another tap is provided on the manifold side of the gas valve for checking manifold pressure.

WARNING

THIS UNIT AND ITS INDIVIDUAL SHUTOFF VALVE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM DURING ANY

PRESSURE TESTING OF THAT SYSTEM AT TEST PRESSURES IN EXCESS OF 1/2 PSIG (13.8” W.C.).

CAUTION

THIS UNIT MUST BE ISOLATED FROM THE GAS SUPPLY PIPING SYSTEM BY CLOSING ITS INDIVIDUAL MANUAL SHUTOFF VALVE DURING ANY PRESSURE TESTING EQUAL TO OR LESS THAN 1/2

PSIG.

7.There must be no obstruction to prevent the flow of combustion and ventilating air. A vent stack is not required and must never be used. The power venter will supply an adequate amount of combustion air as long as the air passageways are kept free of any obstructions and the recommended external unit clearances are maintained.

CIRCULATING AIR AND FILTERS

DUCTWORK

The supply duct should be provided with an access panel large enough to inspect the air chamber downstream of the heat exchanger. A cover should be tightly attached to pre- vent air leaks.

Ductwork dimensions are shown in the roof curb installation manual.

If desired, supply and return duct connections to the unit may be made with flexible connections to reduce possible unit operating sound transmission.

VENTING

NOTE: Venting is self-contained.

CONDENSATE DRAIN CONNECTION

CONDENSATE DRAIN CONNECTION

A 3/4” NPT drain connection is supplied for condensate pip- ing. An external trap must be installed for proper condensate drainage.

DRAIN

CONNECTION

UNIT	2" MINIMUM
FLEXIBLE
TUBING-HOSE	3" MINIMUM
OR PIPE

A POSITIVE LIQUID

SEAL IS REQUIRED

Drain Connection

Install condensate drain trap as shown. Use 3/4" drain line and fittings or larger. Do not operate without trap.

HORIZONTAL DRAIN

Drainage of condensate directly onto the roof may be ac- ceptable; refer to local code. It is recommended that a small drip pad of either stone, mortar, wood or metal be provided to prevent any possible damage to the roof.

CLEANING

Due to the fact that drain pans in any air conditioning unit will have some moisture in them, algae and fungus will grow due to airborne bacteria and spores. Periodic clean- ing is necessary to prevent this build-up from plugging the drain.
