How to Clean your Filter
High-velocity filters may be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or washed
with a garden hose. Be sure to shake off excess water and allow filter to
completely dry before re-installing the filter.
Blower Care
Even with good filters properly in place, blower wheels and motors will
become dust laden after long months of operation. The entire blower
assembly should be inspected annually. If the motor and wheel are
heavily coated with dust, they can be brushed and cleaned with a vac-
uum cleaner. If the blower cannot be properly cleaned without removing
it from the furnace, then this service must be performed by a qualified
service agency.
Motor Lubrication
The motors in these furnaces are permanently lubricated, and do not
require periodic oiling.
