Part 3 - Maintenance Schedule

A. Service Technician

The following maintenance should be performed by a qualified 

service technician annually:

General

• 

Attend to any reported problems.

• 

Inspect the interior of the appliance; clean and vacuum 
if necessary.

•  Clean the condensate trap and fill with fresh water.
• 

If applicable, check the condensate neutralizer and 

ensure it is full of condensate neutralizing marble chips.

•  Check for leaks: Water, gas, flue, and condensate.
• 

Verify exhaust vent and intake piping are in good 
condition and sealed tight.

• 

Check exhaust vent and intake pipe bracing. Ensure 
bracing is undamaged and in good condition.

• 

Check appliance water pressure, piping, and expansion 
tank.

• 

Check control settings.

•  Check  ignition  electrode.  Sand  off  any  white  oxide. 

Clean and reposition.

• 

Check ignition and ground wiring.

• 

Check all control wiring and connections.

•  Check burner flame pattern (stable and uniform).

Additional Items if Combustion of Performance is Poor

•  Clean heat exchanger and flue ways.
• 

Remove burner assembly and clean burner head using 
compressed air only.

The service technician should review service with the owner 
after the maintenance items are completed.

B. Owner Maintenance

Periodically

• 

Check area around the appliance.

• 

Check and remove any blockage from the outdoor 
exhaust vent and intake pipe terminations. DO NOT 
perform this maintenance if exhaust vent and intake 

pipe terminations are in difficult to reach locations.

• 

Check the temperature / pressure gauge.

Monthly

• 

Check exhaust vent and intake piping.

• 

Check exhaust vent and intake pipe bracing. Ensure 
bracing is undamaged and in good condition.

• 

Check the pressure relief valve.

Part 2 - Combustion Air Contamination Prevention

Do not operate the appliance if its combustion air intake is 
located in or near one of the areas or in the vicinity of products 
listed in Table 1. These areas will always contain hazardous 
contaminates that can form strong acids while passing 
through the burner and vent system. These acids will corrode 
the appliance’s heat exchanger, burner components and vent 

system,  resulting  in  flue  gas  spillage  and/or  water  leakage, 

possible substantial property damage, severe personal injury, 
or death. If the appliance combustion air intake is located in 
any area likely to cause or contain contamination, or if products 
which would contaminate the air cannot be removed, the intake 
must be re-piped and terminated to another location.

DO NOT 

re-pipe ventilation system on your own. Call a qualified 

service provider for assistance.
