AIR CONDITIONING AND HEAT PUMP HOMEOWNER'S ROUTINE MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
We strongly recommend a bi-annual maintenance checkup be performed before the heating and cooling seasons begin by a qualified servicer.
Replace or Clean Filter
IMPORTANT NOTE: Never operate unit without a filter installed as dust
and lint will build up on internal parts resulting in loss of efficiency, equip-
ment damage and possible fire.
An indoor air filter must be used with your comfort system. A properly
maintained filter will keep the indoor coil of your comfort system clean.
A dirty coil could cause poor operation and/or severe equipment dam-
age.
Your air filter or filters could be located in your furnace, in a blower unit,
or in "filter grilles" in your ceiling or walls. The installer of your air condi-
tioner or heat pump can tell you where your filter(s) are, and how to
clean or replace them.
Check your filter(s) at least once a month. When they are dirty, replace
or clean as required. Disposable type filters should be replaced. Reus-
able type filters may be cleaned.
You may want to ask your dealer about high efficiency filters. High effi-
ciency filters are available in both electronic and non-electronic types.
These filters can do a better job of catching small airborne particles.
Compressor
The compressor motor is hermetically sealed and does not require ad-
ditional oiling.
Motors
Indoor and outdoor fan motors are permanently lubricated and do not
require additional oiling.
Clean Outside Coil (Qualified Servicer Only)
Air must be able to flow through the outdoor unit of your comfort system.
Do not construct a fence near the unit or build a deck or patio over the
unit without first discussing your plans with your dealer or other quali-
fied servicer. Restricted airflow could lead to poor operation and/or se-
vere equipment damage.
Likewise, it is important to keep the outdoor coil clean. Dirt, leaves, or
debris could also restrict the airflow. If cleaning of the outdoor coil be-
comes necessary, hire a qualified servicer. Inexperienced people could
easily puncture the tubing in the coil. Even a small hole in the tubing
could eventually cause a large loss of refrigerant. Loss of refrigerant
can cause poor operation and/or severe equipment damage.

Do not use a condensing unit cover to "protect" the outdoor unit during
the winter, unless you first discuss it with your dealer. Any cover used
must include "breathable" fabric to avoid moisture buildup.
Before calling your servicer
• Check the thermostat to confirm that it is properly set.
• Wait 15 minutes. Some devices in the outdoor unit or in pro-
grammable thermostats will prevent compressor operation for
awhile, and then reset automatically. Also, some power compa-
nies will install devices which shut off air conditioners for several
minutes on hot days. If you wait several minutes, the unit may
begin operation on its own.

YOU RUN THE RISK OF SEVERE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
• Check the electrical panel for tripped circuit breakers or failed
fuses. Reset the circuit breakers or replace fuses as necessary.
• Check the disconnect switch near the indoor furnace or blower
to confirm that it is closed.
• Check for obstructions on the outdoor unit . Confirm that it has
not been covered on the sides or the top. Remove any obstruc-
tion that can be safely removed. If the unit is covered with dirt or
debris, call a qualified servicer to clean it.
• Check for blockage of the indoor air inlets and outlets. Confirm
that they are open and have not been blocked by objects (rugs,
curtains or furniture).
• Check the filter. If it is dirty, clean or replace it.
• Listen for any unusual noise(s), other than normal operating
noise, that might be coming from the outdoor unit. If you hear
unusual noise(s) coming from the unit, call a qualified servicer.
