Questions & answers about where to find furnace or boiler installation and service or maintenance manuals and guides
InspectAPedia offers impartial, unbiased advice without conflicts of interest.
We will block advertisements which we discover or readers inform us are associated with bad business practices,
false-advertising, or junk science. Our contact info is at InspectAPedia.com/Contact.htm.
Here we provide free downloadable copies of installation and service manuals for heating, heat pump, and air conditioning equipment, starting with an extensive list of Lennox manuals. Lennox Corporation has done a better job than some other companies in providing copies of manuals for not only the company's current product line, but also for its older equipment.
But HVAC manuals can be hard to find, or expensive, even though the manufacturer's will usually gladly give a copy to a consumer or service technician who needs one. Before paying for a furnace or boiler or air conditioner manual, see if it is already listed here or at the manufacturer's website. If you have trouble finding a mechanical system installation or service manual, Contact Us and we will research it for you at no charge.

Free Furnace, Heat Pump, Air Conditioner Installation & Service Manuals
Below we provide HVAC manufacturer contact information and direct links to free downloadable installation, service, and users manuals, focusing on hard-to-find manuals for older models or discontinued equipment. We also provide links to the manufacturer's current model lists and literature.
At Technical Reviewers & References we provide more contact information, links to current model list information, product specifications, and installation/operation manuals for each manufacturer.
Watch out: you might successfully find parts, manuals, wiring diagrams for Singer or other HVAC equipment brands by searching for "Companyname Parts" online. But keep in mind that the "Companyname Parts" provider that appears might have nothing to do with the original company, name, or brand. It's worth a call to be sure that the part number or manual are ordering is really for the equipment that you are repairing or servicing.
If your HVAC equipment is older and is one of the brands whose name has a complex history, and if you can determine the year of manufacture of your equipment it will assist you in tracking down which company is most likely to currently stock parts or manuals for that product. To determine the age of your equipment, see AGE of AIR CONDITIONERS & HEAT PUMPS or AGE of HEATERS, BOILERS, FURNACES.
American Heating Boiler Manufacturers List
Below we list some of the larger boiler, furnace, air conditioner, or heat pump manufacturers. Also see the American Boiler Manufacturers' Association for more boiler makers and their contact information.
In 1968 became part of the climate control division of the Singer Co. In 1970 became Singer American Furnace. See Singer.
American Standard Boilers
American Standard became the Tappan Air Conditioning division in 1972 and was American-Standard purchased by Trane in 1984.
ARCO Boilers / Furnaces
ARCO was bought by SnyderGeneral in 1984 from oil company Atlantic Richfield (ARCO) and was added to Snyder General's Climate Control unit as Arcoaire. In 1991 Arcoaire became part of Inter-City Products (name later changed to International Comfort Products). In 1999, ICP was in turn acquired by United Technologies, the parent of Carrier Corporation. - see Carrier
See this important BLUERAY Recall notice about older Blueray furnaces and boilers. Later models of the Blueray heating boiler (Blueray furnaces were also manufactured) attempted to correct these safety concerns but the company did not survive its image as dangerous.
The Thermodynamics Boiler Company purchased the remains of the defunct "Blueray Systems", redesigned the heating equipment, and marketed it under several names which included the "Blueray" appellation. Those service people "in the know" realized that the Thermodynamics version of Blueray was a different animal and did not have the same safety concerns as the original.
The company produces heating boilers, hot water tanks, radiant heating equipment, HVAC controls, solar heating equipment, and information about discontinued products. At Technical Reviewers & References we provide more contact information, links to current model list information, product specifications, and installation/operation manuals.

Rheem / Ruud Gas Furnaces, Rheem Water Heates, Raypack Pool Heaters & Water Heaters
We include both Rheem and Ruud brands as well as Raypak (copper tube boilers for swimming pool heating and commercial hot water heating) together because in 1959 Rheem acquired the Ruud manufacturing company. In 2010 we found it difficult to find Rheem and Ruud gas furnace installation manuals online, and found that Rheem's website does not offer easy email or telephone contact information for consumers.

Quoting from the Rheem website this history helps understand who produces which brands of heating and cooling equipment:
Rheem is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. It manufactures in Fort Smith, Arkansas; Montgomery, Alabama; Oxnard, California; Acadia, Florida; and Eagan, Minnesota. All manufacturing facilities are ISO 9001 certified. Rheem operates a state-of-the-art Parts Distribution center in Randleman, NC and distribution facilities throughout the US and in Hamilton and Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Rheem also has an international presence in countries such as Australia, Canada, Mexico, Brazil and Singapore [and New Zealand - Ed.] .
In 1987, Rheem became a wholly owned subsidiary of Paloma Industries of Nagoya, Japan, the world's largest producer of gas appliances.
In 1959, Rheem acquired Ruud Manufacturing Company, a pioneer in the water heating industry with a well-regarded product line and a distribution network throughout North America. In subsequent years, Rheem entered the heating and air conditioning market and expanded in the late 1960's and 1970's with the rapid growth of the central air conditioning industry. In 1985, the company acquired Raypak, a leading producer of copper tube boilers used for swimming pool heating and commercial hot water supply and hydronic heating.
Rheem/Ruud Gas Furnace Installation Manuals:
We paid an online "Ruud HVAC consultant $20." to tell us where to obtain a manual for a specific Rheem gas furnace model, Rheem Criterion II Plus 2 - Gas Furnace, Model RGPK 07EAMER, Serial FQ5D302 F020601344 (Installed November 2006) – unconscionable to have to do so but that’s the fact – and we are still waiting for an answer.

Singer Air Conditioning and Heat Pump Equipment Manuals, Parts - contact information
Tracking down parts or manuals for older HVAC equipment can lead to the need to trace the history of companies and company names to a current corporation that purchased, absorbed, or merged with an older company and brand. Singer HVAC equipment is an example of this process.
In 1984 SnyderGeneral operations included Arcoaire, Comfortmaker, McQuay. In 1988 SynderGeneral bought American Air Filter. In 1991, sold Arcoaire & Comfortmaker to Inter-City Products.
In 1982 Singer HVAC became the climate the control division of Snyder General Corporation.
In 1982 became climate control unit of SnyderGeneral Corp. with name dropped. In 1984 SnyderGeneral operations included Arcoaire, Comfortmaker, McQuay. In 1988 SynderGeneral bought American Air Filter. In 1991, sold Arcoaire & Comfortmaker to Inter-City Products.
By 1984 Snyder General had also acquired Arcoaire and Comfortmaker, McQuay brands, and in 1988 Snyder General acquired AAF - American Air Filter.
In 1991 Snyder General sold Arcoaire and Comfortmaker to Inter-City Products.
AAF-McQuay operated as SnyderGeneral until 1994, when that company was purchased by Hong Leong Group Malaysia. Hong Leong in turn is part of Daikin Industries.
Hong Leong continued operation of AAF International and produces air-filtration products under the AAF and AmericanAirFilter brand products.
McQuay International produces commercial air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment (chiller products, air handling systems, applied terminal systems, and industrial refrigeration).
Readers looking for a Singer HVAC or heat pump installation manual, users guide, or parts guide might be able to obtain a manual from AAF or McQuay, but it's doubtful. Try contacting:
AAF-McQUAY Inc.,
10300 Ormsby Park Place, #600,
Louisville, KY 40223,
KY Tel. 502-637-0011,
Fax 502-637-0452
Watch out: you might successfully find parts, manuals, wiring diagrams for Singer or other HVAC equipment brands by searching for "Companyname Parts" online. But keep in mind that the "Companyname Parts" provider that appears might have nothing to do with the original company, name, or brand. It's worth a call to be sure that the part number or manual are ordering is really for the equipment that you are repairing or servicing.

Trianco's product archive of discontinued equipment can be found at this link: http://www.trianco.co.uk/archive.cfm - From the company's website it describes itself as follows: Trianco can trace its pedigree back to the 1850s when Newton Chambers first made coal fire ranges at Thorncliffe in Sheffield. Fireplaces, back boilers and free standing heating stoves followed and, in 1873, the company was awarded the royal warrant to Queen Victoria. Under this name, the 1940s and 50s saw the company pioneer domestic oil fired boilers and it was probably the first with an oil combi. In the early 1970s they acquired Trianco Stewart, a small oil boiler manufacturer, and thus Trianco was born.A management buy out followed in 1983 and then, in 1995, the company became part of the Bullough Group and subsequently Union Investment (a merchant bank based in London

Trianco Boilers -U.K. - (Aztec electric boilers) -
Trianco Heating Products Limited, Thorncliffe, Chapeltown, Sheffield, S35 2PH, England. Tel: +44 (0) 114 257 2300 Fax: +44 (0) 114 257 1419 Trianco's product archive of discontinued equipment can be found at this link: http://www.trianco.co.uk/archive.cfm - From the company's website it describes itself as follows: Trianco can trace its pedigree back to the 1850s when Newton Chambers first made coal fire ranges at Thorncliffe in Sheffield. Fireplaces, back boilers and free standing heating stoves followed and, in 1873, the company was awarded the royal warrant to Queen Victoria. Under this name, the 1940s and 50s saw the company pioneer domestic oil fired boilers and it was probably the first with an oil combi. In the early 1970s they acquired Trianco Stewart, a small oil boiler manufacturer, and thus Trianco was born.A management buy out followed in 1983 and then, in 1995, the company became part of the Bullough Group and subsequently Union Investment (a merchant bank based in London)
