SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS |
|
|
Installing and servicing heating equipment can be hazardous due to |
||
gas and electrical components. Only trained and qualified person- |
||
nel should install, repair, or service heating equipment. |
|
|
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions |
||
such as cleaning and replacing air filters. All other operations must |
||
be performed by trained service personnel. When working on |
||
heating equipment, observe precautions in the literature, on tags, |
||
and on labels attached to or shipped with the unit and other safety |
||
precautions that may apply. |
|
|
Follow all safety codes. In the United States, follow all safety |
||
codes including the National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) NFPA No. |
||
54-1992/ANSI Z223.1-1992. In Canada, refer to the current |
||
edition of the National Standard of Canada CAN/CGA-B149.1- |
||
and .2-M91 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Codes (NSC- |
||
NGPIC). Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Have fire extin- |
||
guisher available during start-up and adjustment procedures and |
||
service calls. |
|
|
Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol |
. |
|
When you see this symbol on the furnace and in instructions or |
||
manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. |
|
|
Understand the signal words DANGER, WARNING, and CAU- |
||
TION. These words are used with the safety-alert symbol. DAN- |
||
GER identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe |
||
personal injury or death. WARNING signifies a hazard which |
||
could result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to |
||
identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal |
||
injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight |
||
suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, |
||
or operation. |

The ability to properly perform maintenance on this equipment requires certain expertise, mechanical skills, tools, and equipment. If you do not possess these, do not attempt to perform any maintenance on this equipment other than those procedures recommended in the User's Manual. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THIS EQUIPMENT, SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
→ ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
PROCEDURE
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components. Take precautions during furnace installation and servicing to protect the furnace electronic control. Precautions will prevent electrostatic discharges from personnel and hand tools which are held during the procedure. These precautions will help to avoid exposing the control to electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control, and the person at the same electrostatic potential.
1.Disconnect all power to the furnace. DO NOT TOUCH THE CONTROL OR ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE CONTROL PRIOR TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY'S ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE TO GROUND.
2.Firmly touch a clean, unpainted, metal surface of the furnace chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in a person's hand during grounding will be satisfactorily discharged.
3.After touching the chassis you may proceed to service the control or connecting wires as long as you do nothing that recharges your body with static electricity (for example; DO NOT move or shuffle your feet, DO NOT touch ungrounded objects, etc.).
4.If you touch ungrounded objects (recharge your body with static electricity), firmly touch furnace again before touching control or wires.
5.Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled (ungrounded) furnaces.
6.Before removing a new control from its container, discharge your body's electrostatic charge to ground to protect the control from damage. If the control is to be installed in a furnace, follow items 1 through 5 before bringing the control or yourself into contact with the furnace. Put all used AND new controls into containers before touching ungrounded objects.
7.An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources) may also be used to prevent ESD damage.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
For continuing high performance and to minimize possible equipment failure, it is essential that periodic maintenance be performed on this equipment. Consult your local dealer as to the proper frequency of maintenance and the availability of a maintenance contract.
Never store anything on, near, or in contact with the furnace, such as:
1.Spray or aerosol cans, rags, brooms, dust mops, vacuum cleaners, or other cleaning tools.
2.Soap powders, bleaches, waxes or other cleaning compounds, plastic or plastic containers, gasoline, kerosene, cigarette lighter fluid, dry cleaning fluids, or other volatile fluids.
3.Paint thinners and other painting compounds, paper bags or other paper products.
A failure to follow this warning could result in corrosion of the heat exchanger, fire, personal injury, or death.
Turn off the gas and electrical supplies to the unit before performing any maintenance or service. Follow the operating instructions on label attached to furnace. A failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury.
The minimum maintenance that should be performed on this equipment is as follows:
1.Check and clean air filter each month or more frequently if required. Replace if torn.
2.Check blower motor and wheel for cleanliness each heating and cooling season. Clean and lubricate as necessary.
3.Check electrical connections for tightness and controls for proper operation each heating season. Service as necessary.
As with any mechanical equipment, personal injury can result from sharp metal edges, etc., therefore, be careful when removing parts.

Never operate unit without a filter or with filter access door removed. A failure to follow this warning could result in fire, personal injury, or death.
1.Downflow/Horizontal
Each furnace requires 2 filters which are installed in the return-air duct. (See Fig. 4 and 5.) To remove filters for cleaning or replacement, proceed as follows:
a.Disconnect electrical power before removing blower access door.
b.Remove 2 screws from front of door and remove blower access door.
c.Reach up behind top plate, tilt filters toward center of return-air plenum, remove filters, and clean as needed. Replace if torn.
d.Furnaces are equipped with permanent, washable filters. Clean filters with tap water. Spray water through filter in opposite direction of airflow.
e.Rinse and let dry. Oiling or coating of filters is not recommended or required.
f.Reinstall filters.
g.Replace blower access door.
h.Restore electrical power to furnace.
2.Upflow
Each furnace requires 1 or 2 filters which are installed in the blower compartment. (See Fig. 6.) To remove filters for cleaning or replacement, proceed as follows:
a.Disconnect electrical power before removing access doors.
b.Remove blower and control access doors.
c.Release filter retainer from clip at front of furnace casing. (See Fig. 6.) For side return, clips may be used on either or both sides of the furnace.
d.Slide filter(s) out.
e.Furnaces are equipped with permanent, washable filters. Clean filters with tap water. Spray water through filter in opposite direction of airflow.
f.Rinse and let dry. Oiling or coating of filter is not recommended or required.
g.Reinstall filter(s).
h.Replace blower and control access doors.
i.Restore electrical power to furnace.
BLOWER MOTOR AND WHEEL
For long life, economy, and high efficiency, clean accumulated dirt and grease from the blower wheel and motor annually.
The following steps should be performed by a qualified service technician.
Some motors have prelubricated sealed bearings and require no lubrication. These motors can be identified by the absence of oil ports on each end of the motor. For those motors with oil ports, lubricate motor every 5 years if motor is used on intermittent operation (thermostat FAN switch in AUTO position), or every 2 years if motor is in continuous operation (thermostat FAN switch in ON position).
NOTE: Remember to disconnect the electrical supply before removing access doors.
Clean and lubricate as follows:
1.Remove 2 screws from blower access door (downflow/horizontal furnace only) and remove blower access door.
2.Remove vent pipe enclosure (downflow/horizontal furnace only) and disconnect short piece of vent pipe from relief box.
3.Disconnect wires from auxiliary limit on blower housing (downflow/horizontal furnace only).
4.Remove control.
5.Disconnect electrical leads from control. (See Fig. 6 or 7.) Note location of wires for reassembly.
6.Remove screws holding blower assembly to blower deck and slide blower assembly out of furnace.
7.Loosen screw in strap holding motor capacitor to blower housing and slide capacitor out from under strap.
8.Mark blower wheel, motor, and motor support in relation to blower housing before disassembly to ensure proper reassembly.
