SECTION IV: FURNACE MAINTENANCE -
USER INFORMATION
EXTERNAL AIR FILTERS
Filters used with this furnace must be installed external to the furnace
casing. DO NOT attempt to install filters inside the furnace cabinet.
Some installations may have the air filter in a rack attached to the cas-
ing of the furnace or placed in the return air duct. If the filter location or
replacement process is not obvious, contact your installer or service
technician for assistance.
Every time the external air 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 fur-
nace and its components must be done by a qualified service pro-
fessional.
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 or servicing contractor
to check 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
furnace access panels/doors. Turn ON the gas and electrical power
supplies to the furnace, and set thermostat to the desired temperature.
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.
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.
Should overheating occur, or the gas valve fail to shut off,
turn the external manual gas valve in the gas supply line to
the furnace to the “off” position and let the furnace cool off
before shutting off the electrical power supply.
