Maintenance

At the beginning of each heating season, and to comply 

with  the  Comfort-Aire/Century  Limited  Warranty,  your 

system  should  be  checked  by  a  licensed  professional 

technician (or equivalent) as follows:

If a high-efficiency filter is being installed as part of this 

system to ensure better indoor air quality, the filter must 

be properly sized. High-efficiency filters have a higher 

static pressure drop than standard-efficiency glass/foam 

filters. If the pressure drop is too great, system capacity 

and performance may be reduced. The pressure drop 

may also cause the limit to trip more frequently during 

the winter and the indoor coil to freeze in the summer, 

resulting in an increase in the number of service calls.
Before  using  any  filter  with  this  system,  check  the 

specifications provided by the filter manufacturer

 IMPORTANT

Fire  Hazard.  Use  of  aluminum  wire  with  this  product 

may result in a fire, causing property damage, severe 

injury or death. Use copper wire only with this product.

 WARNING

Failure to use properly sized wiring and circuit breaker 

may result in property damage. Size wiring and circuit 

breaker(s)  per  Product  Specifications  and  unit  rating 

plate.

 CAUTION

Filters

All air filters are installed external to the unit. Filters should 

be  inspected  monthly.  Clean  or  replace  the  filters  when 

necessary  to  ensure  proper  furnace  operation.  Table  13 

lists recommended filter sizes.

Table 13. 

1.

Check wiring for loose connections, voltage at indoor

unit and amperage of indoor motor.

2.

Check the condition of the belt and shaft bearings if

applicable.

3.

Inspect all gas pipe and connections for leaks.

4.

Check the cleanliness of filters and change if necessary

(monthly).

5.

Check  the  condition  and  cleanliness  of  burners  and

heat exchanger and clean if necessary.

6.

Check  the  cleanliness  of  blower  assembly  and

clean the housing, blower wheel and blower motor if

necessary.  The  blower  motors  are  prelubricated  for

extended bearing life. No further lubrication is needed.

7.

Inspect  the  combustion  air  inducer  and  clean  if

necessary.

8.

Evaluate  the  heat  exchanger  integrity  by  inspecting

the  heat  exchanger  per  the  AHRI  heat  exchanger

inspection procedure. This procedure can be viewed

at www.ahrinet.org

9.

Ensure  sufficient  combustion  air  is  available  to  the

furnace. Fresh air grilles and louvers (on the unit and

in  the  room  where  the  furnace  is  installed)  must  be

properly  sized,  open  and  unobstructed  to  provide

combustion air.

10.

Inspect  the  furnace  venting  system  to  make  sure

it  is  in  place,  structurally  sound,  and  without  holes,

corrosion, or blockage. Vent system must be free and

clear  of  obstructions  and  must  slope  upward  away

from the furnace. Vent system should be installed per

the National Fuel Gas Code.

11.

Inspect  the  furnace  return  air  duct  connection  to

ensure  the  duct  is  sealed  to  the  furnace.  Check  for

air leaks on supply and return ducts and seal where

necessary.

12.

Check the condition of the furnace cabinet insulation

and repair if necessary.

13.

Perform  a  complete  combustion  analysis  during

the  furnace  inspection  to  ensure  proper  combustion

and  operation.  Consult  Service  Literature  for  proper

combustion values.

14.

Verify operation of CO detectors and replace batteries

as required.

Perform  a  general  system  test.  Turn  on  the  furnace  to 

check operating functions such as the start-up and shut-off 

operation.

1.

Check  the  operation  of  the  ignition  system,  inspect

and clean flame sensor. Check microamps before and

after.  Check  controls  and  safety  devices  (gas  valve,

flame  sensor,  temperature  limits).  Consult  Service

Manual  for  proper  operating  range.  Thermal  Limits

should  be  checked  by  restricting  airflow  and  not

disconnecting the indoor blower. For additional details,

please see Service and Application Note H049.

2.

Verify  that  system  total  static  pressure  and  airflow

settings are within specific operating parameters.
