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 opera­
tion, serious injury, death, or property damage.
Before servicing, disconnect all electrical power to
furnace.
When servicing controls, label all wires prior to dis­
connecting. 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 inju­
ry or death.
Filters
All air filters are installed external to the unit. Filters should
be inspected monthly. Clean or replace the filters when
necessary to ensure proper furnace operation. Table 1 lists
recommended filter sizes.
Exhaust and air intake pipes
Check the exhaust and air intake pipes and all connections
for tightness and to make sure there is no blockage.
NOTE - After any heavy snow, ice or frozen fog event the
furnace vent pipes may become restricted. Always check
the vent system and remove any snow or ice that may be
obstructing the plastic intake or exhaust pipes.
Electrical
