Maintenance - Lennox XP14-018-230-06 Nstallation And Service Instructions

Maintenance

Maintenance and service must be performed by a qualified
installer or service agency. At the beginning of each
cooling season, the system should be checked as follows:
Outdoor Unit
1. Clean and inspect the outdoor coil. The coil may be
flushed with a water hose. Ensure the power is turned
off before you clean the coil.
2. Outdoor fan motor is prelubricated and sealed. No
further lubrication is needed.
3. Visually inspect connecting lines and coils for
evidence of oil leaks.
4. Check wiring for loose connections.
5. Check for correct voltage at the unit (with the unit
operating).
6. Check amp-draw outdoor fan motor.

NOTE - If owner reports insufficient cooling, the unit should
be gauged and refrigerant charge checked.
Outdoor Coil
It may be necessary to flush the outdoor coil more
frequently if it is exposed to substances which are
corrosive or which block airflow across the coil (e.g., pet
urine, cottonwood seeds, fertilizers, fluids that may
contain high levels of corrosive chemicals such as salts)
S
Outdoor Coil — The outdoor coil may be flushed with
a water hose.
S
Outdoor Coil (Sea Coast) — Moist air in ocean
locations can carry salt, which is corrosive to most
metal. Units that are located near the ocean require
frequent inspections and maintenance. These
inspections will determine the necessary need to wash
the unit including the outdoor coil. Consult your
installing contractor for proper intervals/procedures
for your geographic area or service contract.
INDOOR UNIT
1. Clean or change filters.
2. Adjust blower speed for cooling. Measure the pressure
drop over the coil to determine the correct blower CFM.
Refer to the unit information service manual for pressure
drop tables and procedure.
3. Check blower drive belt for wear and proper tension.
4. Check all wiring for loose connections
5. Check for correct voltage at unit (blower operating).
6. Check amp-draw on blower motor.
