MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Sheet metal parts, screws, clips and similar
items inherently have sharp edges, and it
is necessary that the installer and service
personnel exercise caution.
The Self Contained Packaged Air Conditioner and Heat
Pump should operate for many years without excessive
service calls if the unit is installed properly. However it
is recommended that the owner inspect the unit before
a seasonal start up. The coils should be free of debris
so adequate airflow is achieved. The return and supply
registers should be free of any obstructions. The filters
should be cleaned or replaced. These few steps will help
to keep the product up time to a maximum. The Service
section that follows should help in identifying problems if
the unit does not operate properly.
Filters
CAUTION
To prevent property damage due to fire and loss
of equipment efficiency or equipment damage due
to dust and lint build up on internal parts, never
operate unit without an air filter installed in the
return air system.
Every application may require a different frequency of
replacement of dirty filters. Filters must be replaced at least
every three (3) months during operating seasons.
Dirty filters are the most common cause of inadequate
heating or cooling performance. Filter inspection should be
made at least every two months; more often if necessary
because of local conditions and usage.
Dirty throwaway filters should be discarded and replaced
with a new, clean filter.
Disposable return air filters are supplied with this unit. See
the unit Specification Sheet or Technical Manual for the
correct size and part number. To remove the filters, remove
the filter access panel on return side of the unit.
Cabinet Finish Maintenance
Use a fine grade automotive wax on the cabinet finish to
maintain the finish’s original high luster. This is especially
important in installations with extended periods of direct
sunlight.
Clean Outside Coil (Qualified Servicer Only)
The coil with the outside air flowing over it should be
inspected annually and cleaned as frequently as necessary
to keep the finned areas free of lint, hair and debris.
Lubrication
The supply fan motors, the condenser fan motors and
compressors are permanently lubricated.
