Homeowner Information
• On some closet installations, the return air opening to
the furnace may be on the floor, 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.

.
• Filters - At least twice each season (more often in dusty
areas) remove and clean the air filters 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 (
). 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
inefficient 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 qualified service contractor for
these items:
• Remove the air circulator and clean all dust and lint
from the unit with a stiff bristle brush.
• Inspect the combustion chamber blower compartment,
flue collar and Roof Jack.
• Check the gas valve (if applicable) and fuel line
connections for leaks.
• Make any adjustments necessary for good operation.

electrodes.
• Reset the nozzle/drawer assembly to factory
specifications.

replace the combustion liner if necessary.
• Clean or replace the oil filter element at the oil tank.
