SERVICE
Inspection and maintenance should be performed at regular in-
tervals and should include the following:
• Complete cleaning of cabinet, fan wheel, cooling coil,
condensate pan and drain, heating coils, and return-air
grille (if present).
• Inspection of panels and sealing of unit against air
leakage.
• Adjustment of fan motor, belt, bearings, and wheels.
• Cleaning or replacement of filters.
• Testing for cooling/heating system leaks.
• Checking of all electrical connections.
Most unit service can be performed by removing one or both of
the unit’s side panels. Coil cleaning or removal or insulation
cleaning may require removal of a rear, top, or bottom panel,
depending on the unit’s orientation. When service is
completed, replace unit panels.
Panels —
Panels are fastened to unit frame with sheet metal
screws. Fan and coil compartment must be sealed tightly after
service to prevent air from bypassing the cooling coil.
Fan Motor Lubrication —
Fan motor supplied with
unit is permanently lubricated and requires no further
lubrication.
