HOW YOUR GAS FURNACE WORKS

Your furnace is a very easy appliance to take for granted. Season after season, it sits there in your home, keeping you warm and comfortable. For this reason, you may never have given much thought to the way your furnace operates. In order to get the safest and most efficient operation from your furnace, though, you should understand how your furnace does its job. When you set your thermostat to provide more heat in your home, you are starting the heating cycle of the furnace. The gas valve inside the furnace opens to supply gas to the burners. The hot surface igniter lights the main burners. When the temperature inside the furnace reaches the operating level, the blower starts and distributes the warm air throughout the home. When the temperature set on the thermostat is reached, the gas valve closes, the main burners are turned off, and the blower continues to run until the remaining warm air in the system is distributed. When the blower stops, the heating cycle has ended.

START-UP AND SHUTDOWN GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Read and follow these procedures CAREFULLY and COMPLETELY. Before attempting to start your furnace, always do the following things FIRST:

If you cannot reach your gas supplier, call the fire department.

C. Use only your hand to turn the gas control knob. Never use tools. If the knob will not turn by hand, dont try to repair it. Call a qualified service technician. Force or attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.

Turn the thermostat OFF. Open windows or make other provisions to ventilate the area around the furnace. If the blower is running, wait until it shuts off automatically. Turn off all electrical power to the furnace. Make sure all metal surfaces of the furnace have cooled to room temperature before beginning.

WARNING: Do not use this furnace if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service technician to inspect the furnace and to replace any part of the control system and any gas control which has been underwater.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. STOP! Read all preceding safety information. 2. Set the thermostat to lowest setting. 3. Make sure all electrical power to the furnace is OFF. 4. This furnace is equipped with a hot surface ignition device which automatically lights the burners. Do not try to light the burners by hand. 5. Remove the control access panel by lifting the panel up and outward. 6. Turn knob on the gas control clockwise to the "OFF" position. 7. Wait five minutes to clear out any gas. If you then smell gas, STOP! Follow step B in the preceding safety information. If you dont smell gas, go to the next step. 8. Turn the knob on the gas control counterclockwise to the "ON" position. 9. Replace the control access panel. 10. Turn on electrical power to furnace. 11. Set the thermostat setting. 12. The unit will go through a 17-second igniter warm-up period. Then if the unit does not light within 4 seconds, the unit will go through two additional cycles before locking out. 13. If the furnace will not operate, follow the instructions "To Turn OFF Gas To Furnace" and call your service technician or gas supplier.

FOR YOUR SAFETY, READ BEFORE OPERATING:

WARNING: If you do not follow these instructions exactly, a fire or explosion may result, causing property damage, personal injury or loss of life.
A. This appliance does not have a pilot. It is equipped with an ignition device which automatically lights the burners. Do not try to light the burners by hand. B. BEFORE OPERATING, smell all around the appliance area for gas. Be sure to smell next to the floor because some gas is heavier than air and will settle on the floor.

KEEP THE FURNACE AREA CLEAR

NEVER . . . use the area around your furnace as a storage area for items which could block the normal flow of air. This flow of air is required for ventilation of the various furnace components. NEVER . . . store flammable materials of any kind near your furnace. Gasoline, solvents, and other volatile liquids should be stored only in approved containers outside your home. These materials vaporize easily and are extremely dangerous. NEVER . . . store cleaning materials near your furnace. Materials such as bleaches, detergents, powdered cleansers, etc., can cause corrosion of the heat exchangers. WARNING: Insulating materials may be flammable.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS:

Do not try to light any appliance. Do not touch any electrical switch; do not use any phone in your building. Immediately call your gas supplier from a neighbors phone. Follow the gas suppliers instructions. 2

CAUTION: When a furnace is installed in an attic or other insulated space, or if insulation is added, examine the furnace to ensure that the furnace is kept clear and free of insulation.

2. Turn off all electrical power to the furnace if service is to be performed. 3. Remove the control access panel. 4. Turn the knob on the gas control clockwise to OFF. 5. Replace the control access panel.

The filter in your furnace takes the lint and dust out of the air that passes through it. This keeps dirt particles from getting into the moving parts of the furnace, where they could cause serious damage. It also keeps the dirt from circulating through your home. As the filter continues to collect these particles, it becomes clogged and no longer allows enough air to circulate through the furnace. If this happens, the heat exchangers and blower motor could overheat; a potentially dangerous situation. It is very important to keep the air filter clean! Never operate your furnace without a suitable air filter.

FILTER FRAME shown, slide the filters out of the accessory through the slot on its side. To check filters located in the blower compartment, remove the blower compartment panel. NOTE: The spring-loaded safety cutoff switch, mounted under the blower deck in the control box will automatically cut off the electrical power supply to the furnace when the blower panel is removed. A filter mounted on the side of the furnace can be removed by pushing down on the looped end of the wire filter retainer until it clears the lip of the furnace casing. The retainer may be swung toward the center of the furnace, exposing the filter for removal. Reverse the procedure to reinstall filters.

FREQUENCY OF CHECKING FILTERS

Clean your furnaces filter at least every three months. If you need to replace a filter, check the filter chart to be sure you install the right size and type of filter for your furnace. If your home is new, you should check the filter every week for the first four weeks after you begin to use the furnace, and then at least every three weeks after that, especially if the system runs constantly.

FILTER RETAINER

To remove bottom mounted filter(s) on all furnaces, push the looped end of the filter retainer to the side and then lift up to expose the filter for removal. Reverse the procedures to install filters.

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

It is the owners responsibility to ensure that an annual inspection of the entire heating portion of the unit is made by a qualified service agency. The inspection should include heating element, vent/combustion air piping, to see that they are clear and free of obstructions and without holes or corrosion. Make sure the horizontal run of the vent system slopes upward and all of the connections are secure. Make sure the return air duct connections are physically sound and sealed to the furnace casing, and terminates outside the space containing the furnace. Make sure no sagging, cracks, gaps, etc. exist around the base of the furnace. Check the main burner flames for proper adjustment per the illustration below.
