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.

Venting System

WARNING

Asphyxiation Hazard

The exhaust vent for this furnace must be leak−free and must be securely connected to the furnace flue collar at all times.

For your safety and to fulfill the terms of the limited warranty, a licensed professional service technician (or equivalent) must annually inspect this furnace and its vent system.

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.

Burner Flame

CAUTION

To ensure proper operation, a licensed professional service technician (or equivalent) should check the burner flame and conduct a combustion analysis annually.
