Seasonal Inspections

A qualified service technician should inspect the complete
system each season (heating and cooling). The following
maintenance procedures should only be conducted by a
qualified service technician.

the unit in any way.
Venting System

WARNING

Asphyxiation Hazard
The exhaust vent for this furnace must be securely

connected to the furnace flue collar at all times.
For your safety and to fulfill the terms of the limited

warranty, a qualified service technician must annualĆ

ly inspect this furnace and its vent system.

Annually (before heating season) inspect furnace venting
system, vent cap, heat exchanger, and burners for corroĆ
sion, deterioration, or deposits of debris. Remove any obĆ
structions.
Inspect the furnace venting system to make sure it is in
place, physically sound, and without holes, corrosion, or
blockage.  Vent  connector  must  be  in  correct  position,
sloped upward and be physically sound without holes or
excessive corrosion.
Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to ensure
duct is sealed to the furnace and terminates outside the
space containing the furnace.
Inspect the physical support of the furnace to guarantee
that it is sound without sagging, cracks or gaps around
base and it maintains seal between base and support.
During a seasonal check the service technician will inspect
the indoor blower and the burner flames along with the
venting system.

Blower

Check blower wheel for any debris and clean, if necessary.
Blower motor is pre-lubricated for extended bearing life. No
further lubrication is needed.

Burner Flame

CAUTION

To ensure proper operation, a qualified technician

should annually check the burner flame.

Service Reminder

Call your Lennox service technician if the unit will not operĆ
ate. Before calling, always check the following to be sure
service is required:
 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, which will limit air flow.
 6 - Is gas turned on at meter?
 7 - Is manual main shut-off valve open?
Record the model and serial number of the furnace. These
numbers are on the unit nameplate, which is located below
the burners.

Safety Precautions

If you discover any of the following, shut down your
unit, and contact a Lennox dealer for an inspection by
a qualified technician.

D

If you repeatedly hear any new or unfamiliar sounds

while your unit is operating, there may be a problem. For

example, poorly performing burners can produce unfaĆ

miliar noises.

D

If you smell any unusual odors, your unit may be operatĆ

ing improperly. For example, units can give off unfamilĆ

iar odors if components are required to operate in abĆ

normal conditions.

D

Look for visible signs of a malfunctioning unit. Examples

include unusual amounts of condensate on windows inĆ

side your house, visibly burnt components or unusual

dirt or rust accumulations on the vent pipe or in the unit.

D

If you experience headache, nausea, fatigue, or dizziĆ

ness, the cause could be exposure to carbon monoxide

gas.  This  is  often  misdiagnosed  as  the  flu  because

symptoms are similar. If you suffer from flu-like sympĆ

toms that are exaggerated at home, but seem to subĆ

side while you are away from the house, exposure to

carbon monoxide could be the cause.

Your vigilance may pay off in early detection of a problem
before either personal injury or property damage occurs.
Do not hesitate to contact a qualified service technician as
an investment in your well being.
