NOTE: InCanada,theCanadianFuelGasCodetakesprecedence over the preceding termination restrictions.

CANADIANVENTINGREQUIREMENTS

In Canada, venting must conform to the requirements of the cur- rent CAN/CSA-B149.1-05 Installation Code. Use only CSA-listed, ULC-S636 compliant two- or three-inch diameter PVC orABS pipe, solvent cement, and fittings throughout. The certified piping should be clearly marked with the ULC Std “S636” on the pipe and fittings. Carefully follow the pipe manufacturers’ instructions for cutting, cleaning, and solvent cementing PVC and/orABS.

The vent can be run through an existing unused chimney provided the space between the vent pipe and the chimney is insulated and closed with a weather-tight, corrosion-resistant flashing.

STANDARDFURNACECONNECTIONS

It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the piping connections to the furnace are secure, airtight, and adequately supported.

As shipped, attachment “couplings” for vent/flue and combustion air intake pipe connections are provided on the furnace’s top cover (upflow) or basepan (counterflow). To use the standard connec- tions, field supplied vent/flue pipe and combustion air intake pipe (when applicable) should be secured directly to the furnace at these locations.

VENT/FLUEPIPE

Vent/flue pipe can be secured to the vent/flue coupling using the rubber coupling and worm gear hose clamps provided with this furnace (see “Standard Connections” figure). The rubber coupling allows separation of the vent/flue pipe from the furnace during ser-

vicing. CombustionAir and Vent piping should be routed in a man- ner to avoid contact with refrigerant lines, metering devices, con- densate drain lines, etc. If necessary, clearances may be in- creased by utilizing two 45 deg. Long-Sweep Elbows and creat- ing an “S” joint to provide additional space at connection loca- tions. This joint can be rotated on the fitting to establish maxi- mum clearance between refrigerant lines, metering devices, and condensate drain lines, etc. This joint is the equivalent of one 90 deg. elbow when considering elbow count.

NOTE: Do not use other commercially available “no hub connec- tors” due to possible material conflicts. The vent/flue pipe can also be secured using a PVC or ABS elbow or coupling using the appropriate glue (see Materials and Joining Methods).

NOTE: For non-direct vent installations, a minimum of one 90° elbow should be installed on the combustion air intake coupling to guard against inadvertent blockage.

COMBUSTION AIR PIPE

DIRECTVENT INSTALLATIONS

On upflow units secure the combustion air intake pipe directly to the air intake coupling. On counterflow units secure the combus- tion air intake pipe to the air intake coupling using the rubber cou- pling and worm gear hose clamps provided with the unit. The coun- terflow rubber coupling allows service removal of air intake piping internal to the furnace blower compartment. NOTE: Because of probable material conflicts, do not use other commercially avail- able “no hub connectors”. The combustion air intake pipe can also be secured directly to the counterflow unit air intake pipe coupling.

NON-DIRECTVENT INSTALLATIONS

A minimum of one 90° elbow should be installed on the combus- tion air intake “coupling” to guard against inadvertent blockage.

MVC95, CVC9/95 specifications

Goodman Manufacturing has established itself as a leader in the HVAC industry, and among its stellar lineup, the Goodman CVC9/95 and MVC95 stand out for their remarkable features, technologies, and efficiency.

The Goodman CVC9/95 is a high-performance gas furnace, designed for homeowners seeking reliability and cost-effective heating solutions. It operates with an impressive 95% Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE), which means that a significant portion of the fuel it consumes is converted into heat. This level of efficiency not only contributes to lower energy bills but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

One of the standout features of the CVC9/95 is its multi-speed ECM blower motor. This technology adjusts the airflow according to the heating demands of the home, ensuring consistent and comfortable temperatures. The ECM motor also operates quietly, enhancing the comfort of your living space without the disruptive noise often associated with traditional furnaces.

The MVC95, on the other hand, offers similar efficiency with its also 95% AFUE rating. This model is equipped with a patented ignition system that enhances reliability with minimal maintenance needs. Its durable construction includes a heavy-gauge steel cabinet and an insulated blower compartment that minimizes heat loss. This design not only supports optimal performance but also contributes to its longevity.

Both models come with a self-diagnostic control board that provides straightforward troubleshooting capabilities, making it easier for technicians to ensure that your system is operating at peak performance. This feature aids in timely maintenance, which is crucial for extending the lifespan of the unit.

Additionally, Goodman backs their products with a strong warranty, offering a lifetime limited warranty on the heat exchanger and a 10-year limited parts warranty. This assurance provides homeowners peace of mind regarding their investment.

In the landscape of HVAC solutions, the Goodman CVC9/95 and MVC95 models exemplify a commitment to quality, efficiency, and advanced technology. Whether for new constructions or replacements, these furnaces offer superior heating performance coupled with modern conveniences, making them an invaluable choice for homeowners seeking effective climate control solutions. With their low emissions and high efficiency, choosing Goodman means investing in both comfort and sustainability.
