OIL FURNACE
USER’S INFORMATION MANUAL
FOR THE OPERATION AND
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR NEW
OIL-FIRED FURNACE
NOTE TO INSTALLER:
THIS MANUAL MUST BE LEFT
WITH THE EQUIPMENT USER.
WELCOME TO A NEW GENERATION
OF COMFORT
Congratulations on the purchase of your new 80+%
efficient oil furnace. If you are replacing an older, less
efficient oil furnace, you may use 20% to 30% less oil.
In order to achieve greater efficiency, your new furnace operates differently in some respects than your
old furnace.
One main difference between an older and newer oil
furnace is in the operation of the oil burner. The new
style retention head oil burner operates at twice the
RPM, therefore the sound is dif ferent — not louder b ut
probably a different pitch. This higher RPM delivers
more air which burns the oil more efficiently.
You will also find the main blower comes on sooner
than before. This is done with efficiency in mind but
also to keep heat exchanger temperatures within allo wable limits. The more ef ficient furnace design heats up
faster requiring a shorter blower on time.
Your new oil furnace blower is also sized for air conditioning and will deliver (even on heating speeds)
more air than your old furnace. Depending on your e xisting ductwork this could lead to a noticeable difference in air noise. A change in ductwork could be
required to reduce air noise, especially if air conditioning is being added.
FOR PROPER AND SAFE
OPERATION OF YOUR FURNACE:
DO NOT place combustible materials, g asoline, and/
or other flammable vapors or liquids on, against, or
near the furnace or flue pipe.
•
DO NOT block or obstruct air openings on the fur-
nace, air openings communicating with the area in
which the furnace is installed, and the spacing around
the furnace. These provide air for combustion and
ventilation.
•
DO NOT store anything near or in contact with the
furnace such as: spray or aerosol cans, rags, brooms,
dust mops, vacuum cleaners or other cleaning tools,
soap powders, bleaches, w axes or other cleaning compounds, plastic or plastic containers, gasoline, kerosene, cigarette lighter fluid, dry cleaning fluids, or
painting compounds.
