Hew it works to
keep you comfortable.

Yourcentral air conditioner isdesigned to workwith your

indoorfurnaceand give you years of dependable service.

Your new central air conditioning system isdesigned to give you years of comfort
and dependable performance. Itwill cool every room in your house -- and use less
energy to do it than ever before.

The reason: we've improved the compressor in many of our units. Now it pumps
the heat out of your home more efficiently. And we've made our new coils bigger,
so they dispose of this heat more quickly.

Yourcentral air conditioner filters and dehumidifies.

As the Trane air conditioner circulates the air, it also filters it.The result: less
housework for you, and a cleaner house year 'round. The air conditioner also

extracts excess moisture from the air inside your home, thus helping to control
humidity in muggy summer months.

At the end of the cooling season, it's easy to deactivate the air conditioner. Simply
move the thermostat switch to HEAT.Now the furnace takes over.And the blower

that circulated cool air in the summer now circulates warm air to keep you
comfortable during the cold months.

1rRANE'

Easy maintenance reduces

electricity use,

A cleanfilter saves money.

When the air conditioner circulates and filters
the air in your home, dust and dirt particles build

up on the filter. Excessive accumulation can
block the airflow, forcing the unit to work harder
to maintain desired temperatures.

And the harder your unit has to work, the more

energy it uses. So you pay more any time your
system isrunning with a dirty filter.

Help ensure top efficiency by Cleaning or
replacing the filter once a month.

Clean ittwice a month during seasons when the
unit runs more often.

You can leave the filter in the frame and vacuum
it. Or you can take it out of the frame and wash it

like a sponge.

When replacing your filter(s), always use the

same size and type that was originally supplied.
Filters are available from your dealer.

Pub No 22-5148-04-100 (EN) 3

Where disposable filters are used, they must be
replaced every month with the same size as
originally supplied.

Both methods are quick and easy -- and
guaranteed to improve the performance of your
system.

How to remove your filter,

Ask your Trane dealer where the filter is located
when he installs your system. In most cases
there will be one filter behind the bottom panel
of your indoor unit.

(continued on page 4)

Maintenance

(cont.)

Removing the filter is easy. See the owners
manual furnished with the indoor unit. Just be

sure to replace it with the arrows on it pointing
in the direction of the airflow.

Cut operating costs by keeping

outdoor unit clear of debris,
leaves and shrubbery.

Efficient operation of your air conditioner
depends on the free flow of air over the coil.

Just set the temperature you want.

Here's how: place the system switch on COOL,
and the fan switch on AUTO. Then set the

temperature byusing the indicator on the
thermostat* control.

Now your system wilt cool your house whenever
the indoor temperature climbs above the
thermostat setting. It wilt shut off when the
desired room temperature is reached.

tn winter, it works the same way. When the
system switch is on HEAT,the system will
operate whenever the room temperature falls
below the temperature setting. Once the desired
temperature is reached, the system will shut off.

Carefully read the accompanying thermostat
manual for operating instructions.

Anything that blocks the airflow, causes the
compressor to work harder to move the warm air
out of your house.

To avoid overworking your unit, do not plant
flowers or shrubbery right next to it. Also, make
sure that nothing is stacked against the sides of
the unit or draped over it.

Making sure that your outdoor unit is kept clear
at all times helps it work at peak efficiency. And
that helps you save money.

IMPORTANT: Whenever your house is to be
vacant, arrange to have someone inspect
your house for proper temperature. This is
very important in below freezing weather. If
for any reason your heating system should
fail to operate, damage could result, such as
frozen water pipes.

How to operate your system

to save electricity.

four setup or setback periods each day, plus
weekend and vacation programs, tt saves energy
while it keeps you comfortable day or night.

Let the thermostatdo its job.

Your system will perform most efficiently when
you let the thermostat control it. Turning the
system on and off manually is usually much less
efficient. So let the thermostat do its job.You'll
be sure to save energy.

We recommend keeping the temperature setting
at 78°F for cooling, 68°F for heating. But you
can select the temperature you're most comfort-

able with.
The point is, once you've set the thermostat,

keep subsequent adjustments to a minimum.
At all other times, let the thermostat keep you

comfortable. And keep energy bills down.

Don'twaste money heating and

cooling when you don't needto.

When you're going to be away from home for a
few days -- or when outdoor temperatures are

moderate -- don't let the air conditioner run
unnecessarily. Lower the thermostat to 55°F in

the winter. And raise it to 85°F in summer. Then
when you return -- or when temperature

conditions dictate -- you can reset the system
and it will immediately begin making your home
comfortable again.

Never stop the system by shutting
off the main power.

tf the main power is ever disconnected for more
than three hours, turn off the thermostat. Then
wait for at least three more hours after the

power has been restored before turning the
thermostat back on. Failure to fotlow this

procedure could result in damage to your
system.

IMPORTANT: If unit is not operational during
the cold weather months, provisions must be
taken to prevent freeze-up of all water pipes
and water receptacles.

How to help reduce
summer humidity.

tn summer, your air conditioner does more than
cool the air. It also helps remove the excess
moisture that can make the inside of your home
feel muggy. When removing this moisture your
system must work harder than when simply
cooling the air.

That's why kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms
should have vents and exhaust fans. These

devices help prevent accumulation of moisture
throughout the rest of the house. So your air
conditioner works less to keep you comfortable.
And that helps keep operating cost down.

The Problem Solver,

A central air conditioner is not a household
appliance, tt's a complex self-contained system

that requires professional maintenance and repair.

That's why attempts at "do-it-yourself"
repairs on an in-warranty unit may void the
remainder of your warranty.

Other than performing tile simple maintenance
recommended inthis manual, you should not
attempt to make anyadjustments to your central air
conditioning system.Your dealer will be able totake
careof any questions or problems you may have.

Keepyour air conditioner looking
like new for years.

Clean the enamel finish of your air conditioner
with ordinary soap and water. For stubborn
grease spots, use a household detergent.
Lacquer thinner or other synthetic solvents may
damage the finish.

IMPORTANT: if you have a cooting coil installed
with your unit, condensate drains should be
checked and cleaned periodically to assure that
condensate can drain freely from coil to drain. If
condensate cannot drain freely water damage

could occur.

Extra Energy Tips,

Insulation

1. Make sure your home is properly insulated.
This is the single most important step incon-
serving energy. Thermal insulation should
be specified in terms of thermal resistance
(R-values). R-30 (10")is recommended for
ceilings, R-11 (3½") for exterior walls and

floors over unheated areas. In colder
climates, consider additional insulation.

2. Infiltration of humid outside air is your heat-
ing and cooling system's worst enemy -- it
could account for 15 to 30% of air condition-

ing energy requirements. Find the places
where air can sneak into the home and plug

them up with caulking, weatherstripping or
plastic. Also weatherstrip and caulk around

all entrance doors and windows.

3. Cut heat transfer through your windows by
40 to 50% with double glazing (two panes of

glass separated by a sealed air space).

4. Use wood or metal-frame storm windows

even if single-glazed windows are high
quality. The extra layer of glass and the layer
of still air will cut heat transfer considerably.

5. Install storm doors at all entrances to your

house.

6. Keep all windows and doors closed.

7. Remember that by increasing the glass

area, you increase the amount of heat
added in summer and lost in winter.

8. Keep the overhead door of an attached

garage closed. This will block cold winds

5 Pub. No. 22-5148-04-100 (EN)

from infiltrating the connecting door
between the house and garage.

9. Make sure fireplaces have tight-fitting
dampers which can be closed when the
fireplace is not in use.

10. Invest in a humidifier to conserve energy in
wintertime. The air in your home won't be as
dry, so you stay comfortable at a lower
temperature setting.

Heating

11. Locate the thermostat on an inside wall
away from windows and doors.

12. Set the thermostat as low as comfort
permits. Each degree over 68°F can add 3%

to the amount of energy needed for heating.

(continued on page 6)

Extra Energy Tips, (cont,)

13. People generate heat. So lower the thermo-
stat a degree or two when expecting a large
group of guests. Otherwise your home may
be wastefully overheated.

Cooling

14. When possible, locate any window air
conditioning units on the north or shady

side of the house.

15. Set the thermostat as high as comfort will
permit.

16. Make sure attics are adequately ventilated
to relieve heat build-up. If necessary, im-
prove airflow by adding or enlarging vents.

17. When building a new house or renovating
an oid one, choose light-colored roof
shingles to reflect more of the sun's heat.

18. During moderate weather, don't use the air
conditioner unnecessarily.

19. Draw blinds or drapes to block the sunlight
during the hottest part of the day.

20. tnsta]l awnings over windows exposed to
direct sunlight.

21. tn the cooting season, don't run kitchen and
bath exhaust fans longer than necessary.

22. Don't place lamps, TV sets or other heat-
producing devices beneath a wail-mounted
thermostat. Rising heat from the equipment
may cause the air conditioner system to
overcool your house.

Water heating

23. Keep your water heating system properly
maintained. Once or twice a year, drain a

bucket of water out of the bottom of the tank
as it may be full of sediment.

24. Add an extra layer of protection with a water
heater insulation kit. It will keep the heat

from being lost through the walls of your
tank.

25. Locate water heaters as close to the points

of hot water as possible. (The longer the

suppty pipe, the more heat lost.)

26. Repair leaky faucets promptly. A steady drip

of water can waste many gallons per month

and the energy used to heat it.

27. Running water is wasted water. When you
shave, use a sink stopper. When you
handwash dishes, use a dishpan.

Clean and check

28. It isrecommended that an annual "clean
and check" be performed on heating / air

conditioning equipment. Catl your local

Trane service professional for details.
