Maintenance
Your ICE AIR unit is designed to provide
many years of efficient, trouble-free comfort
conditioning service. To ensure equipment
longevity and efficiency, please make sure
that the following simple maintenance
procedures are followed. This manual
assumes that your unit has been installed
by a qualified installation professional, and
is operating properly prior to maintenance
service.
Have your unit periodically inspected by
a properly trained service professional or
building maintenance staff person. The unit
should be checked for the safe and proper
functioning of all of its systems at least
once a year. The following recommended
maintenance procedures should be carried
out only by trained personnel with strict
adherence to the Safety Guidelines outlined
at the beginning of this manual. These
procedures MUST be followed to ensure
your safety and the safety of the person
maintaining the equipment!
Component Cleaning
p
!
IMPORTANT:
Power to the unit must
be turned off at the electrical breaker
before carrying out any of the following
cleaning!
To access the components within the chassis
of the unit:
1. Unit must be in OFF Position.
2. Disconnect unit from power source.
3. Access to internal components may vary
based on installed conditions.
NOTE: Pictures of components and parts
may vary depending on your model.
Indoor Air Filter (if applicable)
Only configurations with a plenum on the
return vent for the ICE AIR unit are delivered
with a dispensible filter. Filters are placed
on the bottom slot and pressed forward into
place (installed filter shown above).
Dispensable Filters (shown above) should be
replaced twice every year, before the start
of every heating or cooling season. Please
contact your local sales representative for
replacements.
Evaporator Coil
Check the coil for cleanliness and uniformity
of fins. If the coil is dirty, vacuum clean with
a soft brush attachment. This is the only form
of cleaning that should be carried out within
an apartment. If the coil requires addi-
tional cleaning, the unit must be removed
and cleaned using compressed air and/or
washed. These operations MUST be carried
out in a facility properly equipped to handle
this type of work in a safe and professional
manner.
Evaporator Motor and Blower Assembly
If there is evidence of dirt or dust build-up in
the evaporator motor or blowers, they should
be cleaned either by vacuum cleaning (if
working in an apartment) or by removing the
unit to a workshop location and cleaning with
compressed air.
p
!
WARNING:
Always obey safety
guidelines for using compressed air
in this latter case.
Your ICE AIR unit has permanently lubricated
motor bearings that do not require additional
lubrication. Blowers and motors are factory
assembled for quiet performance – if there
is any excessive noise and vibration from this
assembly, it should be serviced by a qualified
technician.
IMPORTANT:
Do not operate unit without
filters.
