MAINTENANCE
Homeowner
Information
, On some closet installations,
the return air
opening to the furnace may be on the floor,
in the door, in the side wall of the closet, or
any combination
of these. The upper grille on
the front of the furnace admits return air to the
blower. Return air must be provided back to
the circulating
blower in order to provide air
distribution. See Figure 38.
. Filters - At least twice each season (more often
in dusty areas) remove and clean the air filters
with a vacuum or with warm water and soap.
Reinstall when dry. Also clean dust and lint
around furnace and in the furnace vestibule.
. During extremely cold weather, ice may form
on the furnace
roof jack (Figure 39). Small
amounts
of ice forming
on the
roof jack
will present no problems
to proper furnace
operation.
Excessive
ice formation
could
restrict
the combustion
air supply
to the
burner, causing inefficient
burner operation.
If excessive ice has formed on the air inlet or
exhaust portions of the roof jack, it must be
carefully removed.
Installer
