Filters

Filters are not supplied with the unit. Inspect once a month. 
Replace disposable or clean permanent type as necessary. 

Do not replace permanent type with disposable.

Motors

Indoor and outdoor fan and vent motors are permanently 
lubricated and require no maintenance.

Rollout Switch  

The switch is located on the left side of 

burner box.  In the event of a sustained main burner rollout, 
the rollout switch shuts off the ignition control and closes 
the main gas valve.  To reset, push the button on top of the 
switch.

Auxiliary Limit  

This control is located in the side of the 

circulation air blower housing.  The switch opens and shuts 
off the blower/ignition control and closes the main gas valve 
should the circulation blower fail to operate.  This control 
resets automatically.

High Altitude

The input rate shown on the rating plate is for elevations 
up to 2000 feet.  For elevations from 2001 to 4500 feet, the 
input rate is reduced by 5%. For elevations above 4501 feet,  
refer to the National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1 (latest edition) 
or the Canadian Installation Codes CAN/CGA-B149.1 & 
B149.2 for further details.

Secure Owner’s Approval

When the system is functioning properly, secure the owner’s 
approval.  Show the owner the location of all disconnect 
switches and the thermostat. Instruct the owner on how to 
start and stop the unit and how to adjust temperature settings 
within the limitations of th

e system.

MAINTENANCE

Periodic inspection and maintenance normally consists of 
changing or cleaning the 

fi

 lters and cleaning the outdoor coil.  

On occasion, other components of the furnace may also require 
cleaning.

2.  When the speed of the combustion air blower reaches 

proper RPM, the pressure switch closes, initiating a 
pre-purge period (30 seconds nominal).

3.  When the pre-purge period has expired, the  ignition 

control energizes the main gas valve and spark 
electrode for a period of 10 seconds.  

4. If 

the 

fl ame sensor does not sense that a fl ame has been 

established in the 10-second interval, then the ignition 
control will  de-energize the gas valve, and begins a 30 
second interpurge period, then initiates another trial for 
ignition.

5.  The ignition control is designed to repeat this “trial 

for ignition” a total of three times.  If, at the end of the 
third trial, fl ame still has not been established, then the 
ignition control will try to light again 1 hour later.  The 
1-hour retry is indefi nite.  The ignition control can be 
reset by interrupting the unit power or the thermostat 
circuit.

6.  When the thermostat is sa

Ɵ

 s

fi

 ed, the combus

Ɵ

  on air blower 

and gas valve are de-energized. The circulation air 
blower will continue to run for a short period after the 
furnace is shut down.

Blower OFF Delay – Heating

The circulating air blower  “OFF” delay is 120 seconds after 
shutting down the burners.  This delay is not adjustable.

Safety Controls

The control circuit includes the following safety controls:

Limit Control  

This control is located inside the heating 

compartment and is designed to open at abnormally high 
circulating air temperatures.  It resets automatically.  The 
limit control operates when a high temperature condition, 
caused by inadequate airfl ow, occurs.  This closes the main 
gas valve. 

Pressure Switch  

If the combustion air blower should fail, 

the pressure switch prevents the spark electrode and gas 
valve from being energized.

Flame Sensor   

If the ignition control does not receive a 

signal from the fl ame sensor indicating that the burners have 
established fl ame, the gas valve closes after the 10-second 
trial for ignition period. 

Shut off all electrical power to the unit before conducting 
any maintenance procedures.  Failure to do so could 
cause personal injury.
