1. Check all wiring for loose connections.
2. Check for the correct voltage at the furnace (furnace
operating).
3. Check amp-draw on the blower motor.

Winterizing and Condensate Trap Care
1. Turn off power to the furnace.
2. Have a shallow pan ready to empty condensate water.
3. Remove the clean out cap from the condensate trap
and empty water. Inspect the trap then reinstall the
clean out cap.
Cleaning Heat Exchanger
If cleaning the heat exchanger becomes necessary,
follow the below procedures and refer to Figure 1 when
disassembling unit. Use papers or protective covering in
front of furnace while removing heat exchanger assembly.
1. Turn off electrical and gas supplies to the furnace.
2. Remove the burner access panel.
3. Mark all gas valve wires and disconnect them from
valve.
4. Remove gas supply line connected to gas valve.
5. Remove sensor wire from flame sensor. Disconnect
2–pin plug from the ignitor.
6. Disconnect wires from flame rollout switches.
7. Remove four burner assembly screws at the vestibule
panel and remove gas valve /manifold and burner box
as a single unit.
8. If necessary, clean burners at this time. Follow
procedures outlined in Burner Cleaning section.
9. Remove the clean-out cap on trap and drain. Replace
cap.
10. Disconnect condensate drain line from the condensate
trap. Remove condensate trap (it may be necessary to
cut drain pipe). Remove the 1/2” NPT fitting from the
cold end header box. Disconnect drain tubes from cold
end header collector box.
11. Disconnect condensate drain tubes from flue collar.
Remove screws that secures flue collar in place.
Remove flue collar. It may be necessary to cut the
exiting exhaust pipe for removal of the fitting.
12. Loosen two clamps from flexible no-hub exhaust collar.
13. Disconnect the 2–pin plug from the combustion air
inducer. Remove screws which secure combustion
air inducer to collector box. Remove combustion air
inducer assembly. Remove ground wire.
14. Mark and disconnect all combustion air pressure
tubing from cold end header collector box.
15. Mark and remove wires from pressure switch. Remove
pressure switch. Keep tubing attached to pressure
switch.
16. Remove electrical junction box from the side of the
furnace.
17. Remove blower access panel.
18. Mark and disconnect any remaining wiring to heating
compartment components. Disengage strain relief
bushing and pull wiring and bushing through the hole
in the blower deck.
19. Remove the primary limit from the vestibule panel.
20. Remove top cap screws to allow top cap to be
tilted upward to allow clearance for removing heat
exchanger.
21. Remove two screws from the front cabinet flange at
the blower deck. Spread cabinet sides slightly to allow
clearance for removal of heat exchanger.
22. Remove screws along vestibule sides and bottom
which secure vestibule panel and heat exchanger
assembly to cabinet. Remove two screws from blower
rails which secure bottom heat exchanger flange.
Remove heat exchanger from furnace cabinet.
23. Back wash heat exchanger with soapy water solution
or steam. If steam is used it must be below 275°F
(135°C).
24. Thoroughly rinse and drain the heat exchanger. Soap
solutions can be corrosive. Take care to rinse entire
assembly.
25. Reinstall heat exchanger into cabinet making sure
that the rear baffle of the heat exchanger assembly
is nested under the support located at the rear of the
cabinet. Remove the indoor blower to view this area
through the blower opening.
26. Re–secure the supporting screws along the vestibule
sides.
27. Reinstall blower assembly and reinstall two screws
through rails.
28. Reinstall cabinet screws on front flange at blower
deck.
29. Reinstall screws securing top cap.
30. Reinstall the primary limit on the vestibule panel.
31. Route heating component wiring through hole in
blower deck and reinsert strain relief bushing.
32. Reinstall pressure switch and reconnect pressure
switch wiring.
33. Carefully connect combustion air pressure switch
hosing from pressure switch to proper stubs on cold
end header collector box.
34. Reinstall 1/2” NPT (if removed) in the cold end header
box. Reconnect drain tubing to collector box.
35. Reinstall condensate trap pipe. Reconnect condensate
drain line to the condensate trap.
