Abstract
A furnace mounting system to elevate the furnace above the floor. In one form the furnace mounting system includes a furnace mounting block including a vibration dampening feature to prevent the transmission of noise and vibration from the furnace to the mounting block. The furnace mounting block includes a locating feature and is adhered to the bottom surface of the furnace.
Claims36
A mount for supporting a furnace above the floor, comprising:
- a substantially rigid main body member having a first surface adapted to engage the floor and a second surface spaced from said first surface and adapted to support the furnace above the floor;
- a vibration dampening component positioned on and connected with said second surface, said vibration dampening component having an outer adhesive surface adapted to engage and couple said main body member with the furnace;
- and
- wherein said main body member has a locating portion extending from said second surface to abut an outer surface of the furnace and position said second surface relative to the furnace, said locating portion includes two upstanding members that are oriented perpendicular to one another.

A combination, comprising:
- a furnace having outer walls that define four corners;
- and
- a plurality of furnace mounts adapted to hold the furnace above a floor, each of said plurality of mounts located at and abutting the outer walls defining each of said corners, wherein each of said plurality of mounts comprises:
- a substantially rigid main body member having a first surface adapted to engage the floor and a second surface spaced from said first surface and supporting the furnace above the floor;
- a vibration dampening component positioned on and connected with said second surface, said vibration dampening component having an outer adhesive surface coupling said main body member with the furnace;
- and
- wherein said main body member has an integrally formed locating portion extending from said second surface to abut an outer surface of the furnace and position said second surface relative to the furnace.
