Cooling Season

☐ Check the unit's drain pans and condensate piping
to ensure that there are no blockages.
☐ Inspect the evaporator and condenser coils for dirt,
bent fins, etc. If the coils appear dirty, clean them
according to the instructions described in "Coil
Cleaning" later in this section.
☐ Manually rotate the condenser fans to ensure free
movement and check motor bearings for wear.
Verify that all of the fan mounting hardware is tight.
☐ Inspect the F/A-R/A damper hinges and pins to
ensure that all moving parts are securely mounted.
Keep the blades clean as necessary.
