MAINTENANCE
Homeowner Information
•  On some closet installations, the return air 
opening to the furnace may be on the fl oor, 
in the door, in the side wall of the closet, or 
any combination of these. The upper grille on 
the front of the furnace admits return air to the 
blower. Return air must be provided back to 
the circulating blower in order to provide air 
distribution. See Figure 38.
•  Filters - At least twice each season (more often 
in dusty areas) remove and clean the air fi lters 
with a vacuum or with warm water and soap. 
Reinstall when dry. Also clean dust and lint 
around furnace and in the furnace vestibule. 
•  During extremely cold weather, ice may form 
on the furnace roof jack (Figure 39). Small 
amounts of ice forming on the roof jack 
will present no problems to proper furnace 
operation. Excessive ice formation could 
restrict the combustion air supply to the 
burner, causing ineffi cient burner operation. 
If excessive ice has formed on the air inlet or 
exhaust portions of the roof jack, it must be 
carefully removed.
Installer Information
All furnaces need periodic service at the 
beginning of each heating season. Call your 
serviceman to:
•  Remove the air circulator and clean all dust 
and lint from the unit with a stiff bristle brush.
• Inspect the combustion chamber blower 
compartment, fl ue collar and Roof Jack.
•  Check the gas valve (if applicable) and fuel 
line connections for leaks.
•  Make any adjustments necessary for good 
operation.
OPTIONAL ADD-ON AIR CONDITIONING
Whether split system or single package, an 
energy-saving NORDYNE Air Conditioner is 
available that has been designed specifi cally 
for manufactured housing applications and can 
best handle your home comfort needs. Ask your 
dealer or contractor about NORDYNE add-on 
central air conditioning systems. 
Single package unit includes cooling coils, 
compressor, and vertical discharge fan. This type 
of unit connects with the existing home air duct 
system (an optional close-off damper is required 
with the furnace).
Split system unit with vertical discharge for quiet 
operation connects with NORDYNE cooling coil 
furnace (optional coil cavity required with “A” 
model furnaces).
