Features
- Counterflow Blower System
- The Forsaire furnace has a counterflow blower system that takes air from the ceiling and blows the warm air at the floor. This allows for the heat to be evenly distributed throughout the room.
- Safe Pilot Ignition
- With matchless pilot ignition, the guess work is taken out of lighting the furnace. By sealing the pilot and igniter away from dirt and debris, the electronic igniter lights the furnace safely and reliably.
- Vent Limit Safety Switch
- The vent limit safety switch is equipped on all Forsaire furnaces. This turns off the unit in case the vent is blocked, protecting your family from carbon monoxide and fires.
- Optional Multi-room Heating
- Supply an adjacent room with heat using the optional rear kit.
Requiring less than one square foot for installation, the Williams Forsaire wall furnace can be surface mounted or recessed into a stud bay for even more space savings. Simply place it where you want it and vent it vertically through the ceiling and roof. Whether recessed into the wall or surface mounted, the soft-white powder coated finish provides a discrete durable finish that blends into any home's decor.
Product Note
A thermostat does not come included with this unit and is required. The Williams P322016 thermostat is compatible and can be found under the "Accessories" tab. Alternatively, any standard millivolt thermostat can be used.

Vent Type
Products that use combustion (burning) of fuel to create heat also create potentially dangerous gasses that need to be exhausted (AKA "Vented"). Depending on the product, venting can be done via a chimney, through a side wall, or use a second vent to provide fresh air to the appliance.
