RETURN AIR FILTERS FOR UPFLOW FURNACE IN HORIZONTAL CONFIGURATION
When the Upflow Furnace is installed in the horizontal configuration, the return air filters must be installed exterior to the furnace cabinet. Remote filter grilles may be used for homeowner convenience or the filters may be installed in the duct work upstream of the fur- nace. See Figure 17.
