Normal Maintenance
Periodic inspection and maintenance normally consists of
changing or cleaning filters and (under some conditions)
cleaning the main burners.
WARNING
Motors
Indoor, outdoor fan and vent motors are permanently
lubricated and require no maintenance.
Outdoor Coil
Dirt and debris should not be allowed to accumulate on the
outdoor coil surface or other parts in the air circuit. Clean the
coild when necessary. Use a brush, vacuum cleaner attach-
ment, or other suitable means. If water is used to clean the
coil, be sure the power to unit is shut off prior to cleaning.
NOTE- Care should be used when cleaning the coil so that
the coil fins are not damaged.
Do not permit overhanging structures or shrubs to block the
hot condenser air discharge.
Heating System Inspection
The owner is responsible for ensuring that a qualified ser-
vice technician inspects the entire heating portion of the
unit annually. This inspection should include the burner, the
heat exchanger, and flue for any corrosion or soot accu-
mulation. If any corrosion or soot accumulation is found,
the burner, the heat exchangers, and the flue may have to
be cleaned. The technician should also check the burner
and controls for proper operation.
Vent Outlet
Visually inspect vent outlet periodically to prevent excessive
buildup of soot and dirt. tf necessary, clean the vent outlet to
maintain unobstructed discharge of the flue products.
Burner Flame
The burner flame is not adjustable; however, the flame
should be inspected at the beginning of each heating sea-
son and burners should be cleaned, if necessary. Burner
flame should be blue when burning natural gas.
Venting System Inspection
Annually (before heating season) inspect furnace venting
system, vent cap, heat exchanger and burners for corro-
sion, deterioration, or deposits of debris. Remove any ob-
structions.
Contact your Lennox dealer for a periodic unit inspection
by a qualified service technician.
Rollout Safety Switch
Your gas/electric unit is equipped with a roll-out safety
switch which shuts offthe gas supply to the furnace in case
the heat exchanger becomes blocked. If the heating section
of the unit fails to operate due to the functioning of this safety
switch, DO NOT attempt to place the unit into operation.
Contact a qualified service technician.
Call your service technician if unit is inoperative. Before
calling, always check the following to be sure service is re-
quired.
1 - Check that electrical disconnect switches are ON.
2 - Check room thermostat for proper setting.
3 - Replace any blown fuses or reset circuit breakers.
4 - Gas valve should be ON.
5 - Air filter should not be plugged limiting air flow.
6 - Is gas turned on at meter?
7 - Is manual main shut-off valve open?
To keep your Lennox gas heating system in peak operating
condition year after year, contact your independent Lennox
dealer about a planned service program.
