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 ignitor 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

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.

Every time the filters are changed the following items should be visually inspected:

Check combustion air and vent pipe for blockage or leakage.

Check all components to be sure they are in good condition and that there are no obvious signs of deterioration.

Check the drain lines to make sure there are no cracks or leaks.

Check for dirt or lint on any surfaces or on components. Do not try to clean any of the surfaces or components. Cleaning of the furnace and its components must be done by a qualified service professional.

If, during the inspection of your furnace, you find any of the following conditions:

Excessive amounts of dust and lint on components.

Damaged or deteriorated components or surfaces.

Leaks or blockage in the vent pipe passages.

Water on any surface inside or outside of the furnace.

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.

Air Filters

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. 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) you must use filters that are the same size as those recommended in Table 1. Use the following procedure to determine the filter size. Never operate your furnace without a suitable air filter.

1.Determine whether you have a bottom or side return air duct using the following method.

a.If the return air filter is on the left or right side of the furnace it is a side return

b.If the air filter is on the bottom of the furnace then you have a bottom return.

c.If the air filters are on the bottom and the side of the furnace then you have a bottom and side return. You must replace both air filters. Table 1 will indicate 2 filters by using brackets with the number two (2).

d.If the air filters are on both sides of the furnace then you have a two sided return. You must replace both air filters. Table 1 will indicate 2 filters by using brackets with the number two

(2).

2.After you determine the cabinet size and what return configuration you have, look up the recommended filter size from Table 1.

Turn off ALL electrical power to the furnace when conducting any service or inspection procedure. Furnace may have isolated electrical supplies - one providing power to the Circulating Blower (230V or 115V) and another supplying the control circuit (115V), which controls the Circulating Blower. The spring loaded safety cutoff switch, mounted to the blower deck DOES NOT interrupt all electrical potential in the blower compartment when the blower access panel is removed.

Externally Bottom Mounted Air Filters

This furnace has the filter(s) mounted externally to the cabinet on either both sides of the cabinet, one side and the bottom of the cabinet, or the bottom of the cabinet only. DO NOT place the air filter(s) on the inside of the blower compartment on this furnace. The air filter(s) must be place in the externally mounted air filter hardware. Follow the instructions below to remove and replace the air filter(s).

1.Before removing the air filters follow the instructions “To turn off the Appliance” on page 3.

2.Remove the cover on the front of the filter box by removing the retaining screw or knob that secures the cover to the box. The external filter box will be located on the bottom of the furnace cabinet. Refer to Figure 7 for upflow filter box locations or Figure 8 for horizontal filter box locations.

3.Use your fingers to grab the outside edge of the filter and remove the filter(s) from the filter box.

4.If the filter(s) are permanent cleanable filter(s) follow the instructions on how to clean your filter or you may replace the throwaway filter with permanent cleanable filter(s) at this time. Refer to Table 1 for the recommended air filter size.

5.Install the filter(s). The filter(s) should fit in the entire filter track. If the filter does not fit inside the entire filter track then the filter you have is the wrong size. Refer to Table 1 for the recommended filter size.

6.Reinstall the filter box access cover.

7.Follow the Operating Instructions on page 3 to place the furnace back in service.
