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 fur-

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 pro-
cedure to determine the filter size. Never operate your furnace without a
suitable air filter.

Replacing 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. 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.

Externally Mounted Air Filters
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. 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.

NOTES:
1. Air velocity through throwaway type filters may not exceed 300 feet per minute (91.4 m/min). All velocities over this require the use of high velocity filters.
2. Air flows above 1800 CFM require either return from two sides or one side plus bottom.
2. Air flows above 1800 CFM require either return from two sides or one side plus bottom.
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.

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 vac-
uum cleaner. If the blower cannot be properly cleaned without removing

assembly should be inspected annually. If the motor and wheel are
heavily coated with dust, they can be brushed and cleaned with a vac-
uum 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 removing the screws of the
access panel. Blower is now ready to be serviced through the opening.
