Section XVI: Maintenance Procedures
16.1
Annual Maintenance Procedures
16.2
Reported Problems
Any problems reported by the owner should be checked, verified, and
corrected before proceeding with any maintenance procedures.
16.3
Check Surrounding Area
Verify that the area surrounding the CHALLENGER is free of
combustible / flammable materials, vapors or liquids. Remove
immediately if found.
Verify that combustion air inlet area is free of any contaminates.
Refer to the materials listed in Section 3.1 of this manual. If any of
these products are in the area from which the appliance takes its
combustion air, they must be removed immediately or the
combustion air intake must be relocated to another area.
16.4
Inspect Burner Area
Remove the appliance front jacket panel.
1.
Vacuum any dirt or debris from the blower component.
2.
Reinstall front jacket panel when completed.
3.
The CHALLENGER should be inspected and serviced
annually, preferably at the start of the heating season,
by a qualified service technician. In addition, the main-
tenance and care of the appliance as outlined in Sec-
tion XV and further explained in Section XVI should be
performed to assure maximum efficiency and reliability
of the appliance. Failure to service and maintain the
CHALLENGER and the system components could result
in equipment failure which can result in substantial
property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING
The following information provides detailed instruction
for completing the maintenance items outlined in the
maintenance schedule in Section XV. In addition to this
maintenance, the CHALLENGER should be serviced at
the beginning of the heating season by a qualified serv-
ice technician.
NOTICE
Do not use solvents to clean any of the components.
The components could be damaged, resulting in unreli-
able or unsafe operation.
WARNING
16.5
Check System Piping
Inspect all piping (water and gas) for leaks and verify that the piping is
leak free and properly supported. Inspect the fittings and
components on the appliance and verify they are leak free.
16.6
Clean Condensate Drain Assembly
Remove the condensate assembly from the appliance.
1.
Empty any water from the trap and drain assembly. Flush with
2.
fresh water as necessary to clean.
Check the drain piping from the condensate drain assembly to
3.
the drain. Flush to clean as necessary.
Fill the condensate drain assembly with water.
4.
Reassemble the condensate drain assembly onto the appliance.
5.
16.7
Check Ventilation Air Openings
Verify that all ventilation openings to the mechanical room or building
are open and unobstructed. Check the operation and wiring of any
automatic ventilation dampers.
Check and verify the vent discharge and the combustion air intake are
free of debris and obstructions.
16.8
Inspect Vent and Combustion Air Piping
Visually inspect the venting system and combustion air piping for
blockage, deterioration or leakage. Repair any deficiencies.
Verify that the combustion air inlet piping is connected, sealed and
properly supported.
Eliminate all boiler leaks. Continual fresh make-up water
will reduce the heat exchanger life causing appliance fail-
ure. Leaking water may also cause severe property dam-
age to the surrounding area. Inspect the gas supply
piping using the procedure outlined in Section 10.6.
WARNING
When re-assembling the condensate drain assembly, ensure
all gaskets are in place and correctly installed. Ensure all as-
sociated internal joints are complete, tight and secure. Failure
to comply can result in flue gas leakage resulting in substan-
tial property damage, serious injury, or death.
WARNING
Failure to inspect the vent system and combustion air
inlet piping and to have any conditions repaired can re-
sult in substantial property damage, serious injury, or
death.
