Maintenance
A licensed professional service technician (or equivalent)
should inspect the complete system each season (heating
and cooling). The following maintenance procedures
should only be conducted by a licensed professional ser
vice technician (or equivalent).
Do not attempt to service
the unit in any way.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE,
OR EXPLOSION HAZARD.
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could result
in dangerous operation, serious injury, death or
property damage.
Improper servicing could result in dangerous opera
tion, serious injury, death, or property damage.
Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power to
furnace.
When servicing controls, label all wires prior to dis
connecting. Take care to reconnect wires correctly.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
CAUTION
To ensure proper operation, a licensed professional
service technician (or equivalent) should check the
burner flame and conduct a combustion analysis
annually.
Annually (before heating season) inspect furnace venting
system, vent cap, heat exchanger, and burners for corro
sion, deterioration, or deposits of debris. Remove any ob
structions.
Inspect the furnace for obvious signs of deterioration.
Inspect the furnace venting system to make sure it is in
place, physically sound, and without holes, corrosion, or
blockage.
Vent pipe must be clear and free of obstructions and must
slope upward away from the furnace.
Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to ensure
duct is sealed to the furnace and terminates outside the
space containing the furnace.
Inspect the physical support of the furnace to guarantee
that it is sound without sagging, cracks or gaps around
base and it maintains seal between base and support.
Inspect the condensate drain and trap for leaks and cracks.
The drain and trap must also be cleaned and the trap must
be filled with water.
During a seasonal check the service technician will con
duct a combustion analysis. The technician will also in
spect the indoor blower, burner flames, electrical connec
tions and the venting system.
Blower
Check the blower wheel for debris and clean if necessary.
The blower motors are prelubricated for extended bearing
life. No further lubrication is needed.
WARNING
The blower access panel must be securely in place
when the blower and burners are operating. Gas
fumes, which could contain carbon monoxide, can
be drawn into living space resulting in personal inju
ry or death.
Electrical
1 - Check all wiring for loose connections.
