Electric Heat Controls 

 

  Turn on power supply. Set thermostat fan 

switch to on. Set the cooling indicator to 
maximum, heating to minimum. System switch 
may be on heat or cool. Check slope gauge 
measurement against appropriate air flow 
chart. Make damper, register and motor speed 
adjustments to obtain required airflow. 
 

  Set thermostat fan switch to auto, system to 

heat and thermostat heating indicator to 
maximum heat. Blower should start and all 
heat be energized. 

 

  Check air flow using temperature rise method.

NOTE:

 BTUH output should be computed by VOLT 

x AMPS x 3.4 = BTUH OUTPUT. Since line volt 
can vary, do not use nameplate rating to determine 
output.

  

 

Operation and Maintainance  

 

Below are brief descriptions of the key components 
of the unit and installation. This manual only 
provides general idea of the components and 
recommended practices. The installer should use 
best judgment to ensure safe installation and 
operation of the unit.  

 

1)  Room Thermostat- This is the device that 

controls that operation of your heating and/or 
cooling unit. It senses the indoor temperature 
and signals the equipment to start or stop 
maintaining the temperature you have selected 
for your comfort. The room thermostat should 
be in a central, draft free inside wall location 
for best operation. Do not place any heat 
producing apparatus such as lights, radio, etc., 
near the thermostat as this will cause erratic 
operation of the comfort system. The 
thermostat can accumulate dust or lint which 
can affect its accuracy. It should be cleaned 
annually. 

2)  Air Filter(s) - All central air moving comfort 

systems must include air filter(s). These filters 
will be located either in the equipment or in the 
return air duct system upstream of the 

equipment. The filter(s) removes dust and 
debris from the air thus helping to keep your 
air-conditioned space clean. More important, 
the filter keeps dust and debris from collecting 
on the heat transfer surfaces thus maintaining 
optimum equipment efficiency and 
performance. Inspect and clean or replace 
filters every month. This routine maintenance 
procedure will pay big dividends in reduced 
operating cost and reduced service expense. 
Never operate comfort equipment without 
filter(s). 

 

3)  Fuses and/or Circuit Breakers- This comfort 

equipment should be connected to the building 
electric service in accordance with local and 
National Electric codes. This electrical 
connection will include over-current protection 
in the form of circuit breakers. Have your 
contractor identify the circuits and the location 
of over-current protection so that you will be in 
a position to make inspections or replacements 
in the event the equipment fails to operate. 

 
4) 

WARNING

 

a)  Do not store combustible materials or use 

gasoline or other flammable liquids or 
vapors in the vicinity of this appliance. 

b)  Do not operate the comfort equipment with 

panels removed. 

c)  Have your contractor point out and identify 

the various cut-off devices, switches, etc., 
that serve your comfort equipment. There 
is a main switch that will cut off energy to 
your heating system. Know where they are 
so that you may cut off the flow of energy 
in the event of overheating. 

5)  Periodic Checkup and Service- This product is 

designed to provide many years of 
dependable, trouble-free comfort when 
properly maintained. Proper maintenance will 
consist of annual check-ups and cleaning of 
the internal electrical and heat transfer 
components by a qualified service technician. 
Failure to provide periodic checkup and 
cleaning can result in excessive operating cost 
and/or equipment malfunction. 

6)  Lubrication- Direct drive blower motors are 

equipped with permanently lubricated bearings 
and do not require further lubrication.
