HOW YOUR GAS FURNACE WORKS
Your furnace is a very easy appliance to take for granted. Season after
season, it sits there in your home, keeping you warm and comfortable.
For this reason, you may never have given much thought to the way
your furnace operates. In order to get the safest and most efficient operation from your furnace, you should understand how your furnace does
its job.
When you set your thermostat to provide more heat in your home, you
are starting the heating cycle of the furnace. First, the inducer motor
starts to purge the heat exchanger of any remaining gases. Next, the
hot surface igniter glows and after a warm-up period the gas valve
opens and ignition occurs. A short time later, the blower starts and distributes the warm air throughout the home. When the temperature setting on your thermostat is reached, the gas valve closes, the main
burners are turned off, and the blower continues to run until the remaining warm air in the system is distributed. When the blower stops, the
heating cycle has ended.
START-UP AND SHUTDOWN INSTRUCTIONS
Read the Instructions Below Before Trying to Start the
Furnace
If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or
explosion may result causing property damage, personal
injury, and/or loss of life.
A.This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with an ignition
device which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to light the
burner by hand.
B.BEFORE OPERATING; smell all around the appliance area for
gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is
heavier than air and will settle on the floor.
C.Use only your hand to push the gas control switch to the “on” posi-
tion. Never use tools. If the switch will not operate by hand, don’t
try to repair it, call a qualified service technician. Force or
attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
D.Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Imme-
diately call a qualified service technician to inspect the appliance
and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control,
which has been under water.

FURNACE USER MAINTENANCE
Before proceeding, be sure the area is well ventilated. Turn
the thermostat OFF. If the blower is running, wait until it
stops automatically. Turn OFF the gas and electrical power
supplies to the furnace. Check all metal parts and surfaces
to be sure they have cooled to room temperature before
you begin.
Blower Care
Even with good filters properly in place, blower wheels and motors will
become dust laden after long months of operation. The entire blower
assembly should be inspected annually. If the motor and wheel are
heavily coated with dust, they can be brushed and cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. If the blower cannot be properly cleaned without removing
it from the furnace, then this service must be performed by a qualified
service agency.
The blower can be serviced/removed through the blower access panel
on the inside of the furnace. If there is a combustion air pipe installed
inside the furnace, it may have to be removed to access the blower
access panel. After the combustion air pipe is removed, it is easy to
remove the inside blower access panel by pushing it up, against a
spring, or removing the screws of the access panel. Blower is now
ready to be serviced through the opening.
If the blower has to be removed through the inside blower access panel,
then the top flange, blower door switch and bottom flange will also have
to be removed on some models, On some other models, top and bottom angles will have to be removed to slide the blower out of the furnace.
Make sure you DO NOT move the clip-on weight on the
indoor fan wheel when cleaning the wheel. This weight is
used to balance the wheel. Moving the weight will cause
the fan wheel to vibrate.
Air Filters
The filters should be checked every 3 months. On new construction,
check the filters every week for the first four weeks and every three
weeks after that, especially if the indoor fan is running continuously.
When replacing the filter(s), refer to Table 1 to be sure you install the
right size filter for your furnace. Dirty filters greatly restrict the flow of air
and may cause damage to the moving parts of the furnace. If the filters
become clogged the heat exchangers and blower motor could overheat
resulting in a potentially dangerous situation.
Never operate your furnace without a suitable air filter.
Use the following procedure to determine the filter size.
1.Measure the furnace width and use that measurement to determine the cabinet width.
• A 17-1/2” wide cabinet is a “B” cabinet.
• A 21” wide cabinet is a “C” cabinet.
• A 24-1/2” wide cabinet is a “D” cabinet.
2.After you determine the cabinet size and what return configuration
you have, look up the recommended filter size from Table 1.
Removing Filters
Some downflow furnaces have their filters located on the top of the furnace in an external filter rack. To check filters you should:
1.Follow the instructions to turn off the appliance before servicing.
2.Filters are installed in the return air plenum above the blower
assembly. An “A” frame assembly supports the filters. Lift the filter
slightly and remove for service.
3.Follow the instructions “HOW TO CLEAN YOUR FURNACE’S FILTER”.
4.Reverse the procedure to reinstall filters.
5.Follow the operating instructions to place appliance in operation.
TABLE 1:
Externally Mounted Air Filters
Some installations may have the air filter in a rack attached to the casing of the furnace or placed in the return air duct. You can gain access
to the filter by pulling on the door or unscrewing the retaining screw,
then slide the filter(s) out of its channel. Replace throw away filter(s)
with the same size new filter(s). Throw away filter(s) may be replaced
with cleanable filter(s) at this time. Cleanable filter(s) may be cleaned as
described in the manufacturer instructions or as described below and
then re-installed.
How to Clean your Filter
High-velocity filters may be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or washed
with a garden hose. Be sure to shake off excess water and allow filter to
completely dry before re-installing the filter.
To replace the filter after cleaning you must do the following:
1.Slide filter into place.
2.Snap the door on or place the door in position and tighten the
3.Make sure the door is secure to the end of the filter rack.
4.For filter grilles, place the filter into the grilles, close the grille cover
Every time the filters are changed the following items should be visually
inspected:
If, during the inspection of your furnace, you find any of the following
conditions:
Do not operate the furnace, call a certified dealer / servicing contractor
to check and / or clean your furnace, or for more information if you have
questions about the operation of your furnace.
If all components appear to be in good operating condition, replace the
front panels. Turn ON the gas and electrical power supplies to the furnace, and set thermostat to the desired temperature.
