VII-MAINTENANCE
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
operation, serious injury, death, or property damage.
Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power to
furnace.
When servicing controls, label all wires prior
to disconnecting. Take care to reconnect wires
correctly. Verify proper operation after servicing.
At the beginning of each heating season, system should
be checked as follows by a qualified service technician:
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
injury or death.
Filters
All SLP99UHV filters are installed external to the unit. Fil-
ters should be inspected monthly. Clean or replace the fil-
ters when necessary to ensure proper furnace operation.
See TABLE 40 for filter sizes.
IMPORTANT
If a highefficiency filter is being installed as part
of this system to ensure better indoor air quality,
the filter must be properly sized. Highefficiency
filters have a higher static pressure drop than
standardefficiency glass/foam filters. If the pressure
drop is too great, system capacity and performance
may be reduced.
The pressure drop may also cause the limit to trip
more frequently during the winter and the indoor
coil to freeze in the summer, resulting in an increase
in the number of service calls.
Before using any filter with this system, check the
specifications provided by the filter manufacturer
against the data given in the appropriate Lennox
