 IMPORTANT

If  a  highefficiency  filter  is  being  installed  as  part 

of this system to ensure better indoor air quality, 

the  filter  must  be  properly  sized.  Highefficiency 

filters  have  a  higher  static  pressure  drop  than 

standardefficiency 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 

against the data given in the appropriate Lennox 

Product 

Specifications 

bulletin. 

Additional 

information is provided in Service and Application 

Note ACC002 (August 2000).

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.

3 -   Clock gas meter to ensure that the unit is operating 

at  the  specified  firing  rate.  Check  the  supply 

pressure and the manifold pressure. On two-stage 

gas furnaces check the manifold pressure on high 

fire and low fire. If manifold pressure adjustment is 

necessary,  consult  the  Service  Literature  for  unit 

specific  information  on  adjusting  gas  pressure. 

Not  all  gas  valves  are  adjustable.  Verify  correct 

temperature rise.
