(1.) Release blower access panel door switch and turn
setup switch SW-6 to OFF position.
(2.) Replace blower access panel.
(3.) Operate furnace through 1 heat cycle to check for
proper operation and check LED status.
(4.) If furnace is operating properly and LEDs indicate
proper operation, replace main furnace door.
IX. CHECKING HEAT TAPE OPERATION
(IF APPLICABLE)
In applications where the ambient temperature around the furnace
is 32°F or lower, freeze protection measures are required. If this
application is where heat tape has been applied, check to ensure it
will operate when low temperatures are present.
NOTE: Heat tape, when used, should be wrapped around the
condensate drain trap and drain line. There is no need to use heat
tape within the furnace casing. Most heat tapes are temperature
activated, and it is not practical to verify the actual heating of the
tape. Check the following:
1. Check for signs of physical damage to heat tape such as
nicks, cuts, abrasions, gnawing by animals, etc.
2. Check for discolored heat tape insulation. If any damage or
discolored insulation is evident, replace heat tape.
3. Check that heat tape power supply circuit is on.
X. WINTERIZING
CAUTION: Freezing condensate left in the furnace will
damage the equipment.
If the furnace will be off for an extended period of time in a
structure where the temperature will drop to 32°F or below,
winterize as follows:
1. Turn off electrical supply to furnace.
2. Remove main furnace door.
3. Disconnect drain tube from inducer housing. (See Fig. 13.)
4. Insert funnel in drain tube and pour antifreeze, propylene
glycol (RV, swimming pool antifreeze, or equivalent) into
furnace until it is visible at point where condensate enters
open drain. (See Fig. 14.)
5. Reconnect drain tube to inducer housing.
6. Replace main furnace door.
CAUTION: Do not use ethylene glycol (Prestone II
antifreeze/coolant or equivalent automotive type). Failure
of plastic components will occur.
CAUTION: If this furnace is installed in an uncondi-
tioned space where the ambient temperatures may be
32°F or lower, freeze protection measures must be taken.
