Lubrication, Cooling Section Maintenance

!WARNING

DISCONNECT MAIN ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPT- ING MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

LUBRICATION

IMPORTANT: DO NOT attempt to lubricate the bearings on the blower motor or the induced draft blower motor. Addition of lubricants can reduce the motor life and void the warranty.

The blower motor and induced draft blower motor are prelubricated by the manufacturer and do not require further attention.

A qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier must periodically clean the motors to prevent the possibility of overheating due to an accumulation of dust and dirt on the windings or on the motor exterior. And, as suggested elsewhere in these instruc- tions, the air filters should be kept clean because dirty filters can restrict air flow and the motor depends upon sufficient air flowing across and through it to prevent overheating.

COOLING SECTION MAINTENANCE

!WARNING

DISCONNECT MAIN ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPT- ING MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK RESULTING IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

It is recommended that at the beginning of each cooling season a qualified installer or service agency inspect and clean the cooling section of this unit. The following areas should be addressed: evaporator coil. condenser coil, condenser fan motor and venturi area.

To inspect the evaporator coil:

1.Remove the filter access panel and the blower/evaporator coil access panel. Remove the filters.

!WARNING

LABEL ALL WIRES PRIOR TO DISCONNECTION WHEN SERVICING THE UNIT. WIRING ERRORS CAN CAUSE IMPROPER AND DANGEROUS OPERATION RESULTING IN FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

2.Shine a flashlight on the evaporator coil (both sides) and inspect for accumulation of lint, insulation, etc.

3.If coil requires cleaning, follow the steps shown below.

Cleaning Evaporator Coil

1.The coil should be cleaned when it is dry. If the coil is coated with dirt or lint, vacuum it with a soft brush attachment. Be careful not to bend the coil fins.

2.If the coil is coated with oil or grease, clean it with a mild detergent-and-water solu- tion. Rinse the coil thoroughly with water. IMPORTANT: Do not use excessive water pressure. Excessive water pressure can bend the fins and tubing of the coil and lead to inadequate unit performance. Be careful not to splash water excessively into unit.

3.Inspect the drain pan and condensate drain at the same time the evaporator coil is checked. Clean the drain pan by flushing with water and removing any matters of obstructions which may be present.

4.Go to next section for cleaning the condenser coil.

Cleaning Condenser Coil, Condenser Fan, Circulation Air Blower and Venturi

1.Remove the compressor access panel. Disconnect the wires to the condenser fan motor in the control box (see wiring diagram). Remove the wires from the opening in the bottom of the control box.

2.Remove the screws securing the condenser top panel and remove the panel with condenser fan motor and grille attached.

3.The coil should be cleaned when it is dry. If the coil is coated with dirt or lint, vacuum it with a soft brush attachment. Be careful not to bend the coil fins.

A-13 specifications

The Heat Controller A-13 is an innovative and efficient heating solution designed to provide optimal comfort while reducing energy consumption. This advanced unit stands out in the market due to its combination of cutting-edge technologies and user-centric features, making it an ideal choice for both residential and commercial applications.

One of the main features of the A-13 is its high energy efficiency rating. With a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating of up to 23, the unit not only lowers energy bills but also minimizes the carbon footprint, making it an environmentally friendly option. This efficiency is further enhanced by the use of variable speed inverter technology, which allows the unit to modulate its output based on the specific heating demand. This ensures a more consistent and comfortable indoor environment while avoiding the energy wastage associated with traditional fixed-speed systems.

The A-13 incorporates state-of-the-art smart technology, enabling users to control their heating system remotely. Through a dedicated mobile application, homeowners can adjust settings, monitor energy consumption, and receive maintenance alerts directly from their smartphones. This level of control offers convenience and ensures that the space is always comfortable upon arrival.

In addition to smart capabilities, the A-13 is designed with ultra-quiet operation in mind. Thanks to its advanced compressor and fan technology, the unit operates at sound levels as low as 26 decibels, ensuring a peaceful atmosphere even when the heating system is in operation. This is particularly beneficial for environments where noise can be a distraction, such as bedrooms or offices.

The heat exchanger technology used in the A-13 further contributes to its high performance. The unit features a corrosion-resistant, gold-fin coating that enhances durability and heat transfer efficiency. This not only extends the lifespan of the unit but also helps maintain optimal performance over time.

Safety features are also a priority in the A-13 design. The unit includes multiple safety mechanisms, such as overheating protection and automatic shut-off functions, ensuring safe operation even during extended use.

Overall, the Heat Controller A-13 represents a blend of efficiency, performance, and user-friendly technology, making it a top choice for those seeking reliable and sustainable heating solutions in their spaces. With its combination of smart controls, quiet operation, and robust safety features, the A-13 is indeed a leader in modern heating solutions.
