PROPER CARE OF
YOUR SYSTEM
LUBRICATION
The indoor blower motor, outdoor fan
motor and ventor motor are perma-
nently lubricated and require no main-
tenance.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The manufacture recommends
that the furnace system be in-
spected once a year by a qualified
service person.
For proper and safe operation, the
gas heating section needs air for com-
bustion and ventilation. Do not block or
obstruct air openings on the unit, nor
the spacing around the unit. Keep the
gas heating system area clear and free
of combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
Snow or debris should not be al-
lowed to accumulate in or around
the unit. Do not permit overhanging
structures or shrubs to obstruct con-
denser air discharge or vent outlet
on your unit. These provide air for
combustion and ventilation.
FILTER CARE
Single phase units are shipped
without a filter and is the responsi-
bility of the installer to secure a filter
in the return air ductwork or install
a Filter/Frame Kit (1FF0110).
A filter rack and a high velocity
filters are standard on three phase
units.
Filters must always be used and
must be kept clean. When filters be-
come dirt laden, insufficient air will be
delivered by the blower, decreasing
your units efficiency and increasing
operating costs and wear-and-tear on
the unit and controls.
Filters should be checked monthly
especially since this unit is used for
both heating and cooling.
REGISTERS
Supply air and return air registers
must be open when the unit is in
operation. Furniture must not block
airflow in or out of the registers.
COIL CARE
An annual check and cleaning, if
necessary, of the condenser coil
should be done. Clean any debris
and dirt from the outside coil face
with a brush being careful not to
damage the fins. If extremely dirty,
a hose can be used to wash the coil
from the inside out while brushing a
soapy solution on the outside.
TROUBLESHOOTING
BEFORE CALLING A SERVICEMAN:
A. Check thermostat setting and
insure thermostat is calling for
heat or cooling.
B. Check thermostat for lint, dust, etc.
C. Check fuses or circuit breakers.
D. Check filters for excessive dust
accumulation and/or restriction.
PARTS INFORMATION
UPG renewal parts may be ob-
tained from your local qualified UPG
contractor-check the yellow pages
in your telephone directory.
SOME EFFICIENCY
DO’S AND DON’TS
DON’T heat or cool unused areas.
Reduce supply and return air flow to
a minimum in areas which are not
living spaces (storage rooms, ga-
raged, basements, etc.).
DON’T be a "thermostat jiggler".
Moving your thermostat setting will
not make your system heat or cool
any faster. Adjust your thermostat to a
comfortable setting and leave it there.
DON’T restrict air circulation. Plac-
ing furniture, rugs, etc. in such a way
that they interfere with air vents will
make your system work harder to
achieve a comfortable temperature
level. This requires more energy,
which means greater cost to you.
DON’T heat or cool when you are
away. If you are going to be away for
a day or more, re-adjust your thermo-
stat accordingly. Your furniture is far
less demanding than you are when it
comes to comfort levels. However,
don’t expect the system to restore
comfort conditions immediately upon
returning home. It will take a little time.
DON’T locate lamps or other heat-
producing appliances (radios, TV’s,
heaters, etc.) near your thermostat.
The heat from these items will give
your thermostat "false information"
about the temperature in the room.
DO select a comfortable thermo-
stat setting, but keep in mind that
moderation in temperature selection
will save energy.
DO turn on your kitchen exhaust fan
when cooking and your bathroom ex-
haust fan when showering. Also, make
sure your clothes dryer is properly
vented. If these items are neglected, an
excess heat and humidity condition
may be created, causing your air con-
ditioning system to run longer.
DO set your thermostat a few de-
grees lower than normal several hours
before entertaining a large group of
people in a relatively small area. Peo-
ple give off a considerable amount of
heat and moisture in a closed area.
DO keep drapes and Venetian
blinds closed when practical. These
items provide insulation against
heat loss/gain.
DO contact a qualified service
man to make repairs or adjustments
to your system. He has been trained
to perform this service.
