TROUBLESHOOTING
Before you request dealer service, check for these easily solved
problems:
S Check the indoor and outdoor disconnect switches (see Fig. 1.)
Also check your main electrical panel circuit breakers or fuses.
S Check for sufficient airflow. Air filter(s) should be reasonably
clean and interior vents should be open and unobstructed.
S Check thermostat settings. For cooling, your desired
temperature setting should be LOWER than the displayed room
temperature, and the System/Mode control should be on Cool or
Auto. For heating, your temperature setting should be HIGHER
than the displayed room temperature, and the System/Mode
control is set to Heat or Auto.
S Time delays -- depending on the Bryant Heat Pump model you
have, there may be delays in unit operation that are built--in to
protect the equipment and your comfort. Don’t be alarmed if
you notice a time delay in operation. It may be a standard
protection feature of your equipment. Check with your Bryant
Dealer for more informationon time delays.
If you need to contact your Bryant dealer for troubleshooting and/or
repairs, be sure to have the model and serial numbers of your
equipment available (there are spaces on the cover for you to write
this information). With this information, your dealer may be able to
offer helpful suggestions over the phone or save valuable time
through knowledgeable preparation for the service call.
REGULAR DEALER MAINTENANCE
In addition to the routine maintenance that you perform, your home
comfort system should be inspected regularly by a properly trained
service technician. Many dealers offer this service at a reduced rate
with a service contract. Some service contracts offer additional
benefits such as parts discounts and no additional charge for ”after
hours” or emergency service.
Your annual system inspection should include:
S Routine inspection of air filter(s) with replacement or cleaning as
required
S Inspection and cleaning of the blower wheel housing and motor
S Inspection and, if required, cleaning of indoor and outdoor coils
S Inspection of the indoor coil drain pan, as well as the primary
and secondary drain lines. If the system has an auxiliary drain
pan and line, they should be inspected at this time as well.
Service should include cleaning if required.
S Check all electrical wiring and connections
S Check for secure physical connections of individual parts in
each unit
S Operational check of the Heat Pump system to determine actual
working condition. Necessary repair and, or adjustment should
