Keep Your System in Top Form Year After Year
In order to ensure peak perfor­mance, your system must be properly maintained. Clogged filters and blocked airflow prevent your unit from operating at its most efficient level.
Ask your Lennox dealer to show you where your indoor unit’s filter is located. It will be either at the indoor unit (installed internal or external to the cabinet) or behind a return air grille in the wall or ceiling. Check the filter monthly and clean or replace it as needed.
Disposable filters should be replaced with a filter of the same type and size. If you are unsure about the filter you need for your system, call your independent Lennox dealer for assistance.
Important!
Turn off electrical power to the unit at the disconnect switch before performing any maintenance. The unit may have multiple power supplies.
Many indoor units are equipped with re-usable foam filters. These filters can be cleaned with a mild soap and water solution. Rinse the filter thoroughly and let it dry com­pletely, before it is returned to the unit or grille.
The filter and all access panels must be in place any time the unit is in operation.

Your system may be equipped with an electronic air cleaner which will provide respiratory relief by removing up to 90 percent of all airborne particles which pass through it. If it is, ask your dealer to instruct you on its maintenance.
Your indoor evaporator coil is equipped with a drain pan to collect condensate formed as your system removes humidity from the inside air. Have your dealer show you where the main condensate drain (and auxiliary drain, if applicable) runs and how to check the drain for any obstruction.
It is also very important to provide unrestricted airflow to the outdoor unit. Leaves, trash or shrubs crowding the unit cause the outdoor unit to work harder and use more energy. Keep shrubbery trimmed away from the unit and periodically check for debris which may have collected around the unit.
Comfort is at Yo u r Fingertips
Though your thermostat may vary somewhat from the description below, its operation will be similar.
Temperature Setting Levers
Set the indicator lever or dial to the desired temperature setpoints for both heating and cooling.
Fan Switch
In AUTO or INT mode, the blower operates only when the thermostat calls for heating or cooling. This mode is generally preferred when humidity control is a priority. The ON or CONT mode provides continuous indoor blower operation, regardless of whether the compressor or burners are operating. This mode is required when constant air circulation or filtering is desired.
System Switch
Set the system switch for heating, cooling or auto operation. The auto mode allows the system to automatically switch from heating mode to cooling mode to maintain predetermined comfort settings.
Temperature Indicator
The temperature indicator displays the actual room temperature.
Programmable Thermostats
Your Lennox system may be controlled by a programmable thermostat. These thermostats provide the added feature of programmable setpoints for both heating and cooling. Refer to the user’s information manual provided with your particular thermostat for operation details.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE — YOUR INDEPENDENT LENNOX DEALER CAN HELP
Nobody knows more about the care and operation of your new Lennox equipment than your independent Lennox dealer. This means that your independent Lennox dealer is your best choice for routine maintenance or service. Lennox’ Quality Dealer Standards program ensures that when you call your independent Lennox dealer, you can count on prompt, courteous and professional service.
Before the start of each cooling season, the following air conditioning service checks should be performed by a qualified service technician. As always,
electrical power to the unit must be turned off prior to any unit maintenance.
The outdoor condenser coil and indoor evaporator
coil should be inspected and cleaned. The outdoor condenser coil may be flushed with a water hose.
The refrigerant lines should be visually inspected
and the coils should be checked for leaks.
Wiring should be checked for loose connections.
Voltage must be checked at the indoor and
outdoor units (units operating).
The amp-draw at the condenser fan motor and
indoor blower motor should be checked. Values should be compared with those given on unit nameplate.
Indoor unit filters should be cleaned or replaced.
The refrigerant charge should be checked and
system pressures should be gauged.
The condensate drain line should be checked for
free and unobstructed flow and it should be cleaned, if necessary.
Be Prepared with the Information You r Dealer Will Need
If your system fails to operate, check the following before calling for service:
Check to see that all electrical
disconnect switches are ON.
Make sure the room
thermostat temperature selector is properly set.
Make sure the room
thermostat system switch is properly set.
Replace any blown fuses, or
reset circuit breakers.
Make sure unit access panels
are in place.
Make sure air filter is clean.
Locate unit model number
and have it handy before calling.
