START UP & ADjUSTMENTS

Pre-Start Check List

  Verify the unit is level and allows evaporator condensate 

to drain.

 Verify heat exchanger condensate drain and vent kit 

have been installed according to the instructions included 

with horizontal kit 922323 or downflow kit 922485 or as 
described in the Appendix section (

page 44

).

 Verify all clearance requirements are met and there is 

free airflow to and from the outdoor coil.

  Verify that the duct work is sealed to prevent air leakage 

and air filter is installed.

 Verify that the line voltage power leads are securely 

connected and the unit is properly grounded.

  Verify that the low voltage wires are securely connected 

to the correct terminals in the low voltage area of the 

control box.

  Verify that the gas line service pressure does not exceed 

10.0 inches WC (0.36 psig), and is not less than 4.5 

inches WC (0.16 psig) for natural gas. For LP gas the 

line service pressure must not exceed 14 inches WC 

(0.51 psig) and must not be less than 11.0 inches WC 

(0.40 psig).

 Verify that the flame roll-out control is closed. If 

necessary, press the red button to reset the control. 

Do 

not

 install a jumper wire across the control to defeat its 

function. If the control reopens upon start-up, 

Do not

 

reset the control without identifying and correcting the 

fault condition which caused the control to trip.

 Verify that the gas line has been purged and all 

connections are leak tight.

  Verify that all exterior panels are replaced and securely 

fastened.

 Verify that the outdoor fan turns freely.

 Verify that the power supply branch circuit overcurrent 

protection is sized properly.

 Verify that the thermostat is wired correctly. The 

thermostat function switch should be set to OFF and 

the thermostat fan switch should be set to AUTO.

Start-Up Procedure

 WARning:

If this unit is equipped with crankcase heaters, 

allow  24  hrs  for  heating  of  the  refrigerant 

compressor crankcase prior to start up or anytime 

the power has been removed for more than 12 

hrs. Failure to comply may result in damage or 

cause premature failure of the system.

Air Circulation

Leave the thermostat system mode on OFF, and set the 

fan mode to ON. Blower should run continuously. Check 

the air delivery at the supply registers and adjust register 

openings for balanced air distribution. Examine ductwork 

for leaks or obstruction if insufficient air is detected. Set 

the thermostat fan mode to AUTO. The blower should 

stop running.

notE:

 When FAN ON is selected, the blower will operate 

at 50% of selected airflow when no call for heating or 

cooling is present.

Lighting the Appliance
