Cleaning the Heat Exchanger
If the heat exchanger must be cleaned due to soot or
scale build up, follow the steps below.
1. Shut off the gas supply to the unit either at the meter
or at the manual valve in the gas supply piping.
IMPoRtaNt NotE! See gas valve label on the unit or
Figure 17 (page 35) for proper gas shutdown instructions.
2. Turn off all power to the unit and set the thermostat to
the lowest temperature setting.
cautIoN:
Label all wires prior to disconnection when
servicing the unit. Wiring errors can cause
improper and dangerous operation.
3. Disconnect the wires from the gas valve, ignitor, flame
sensor, and rollout switch.
4. Using two wrenches, separate the ground-joint union
in the gas supply piping at the unit.
5. Remove the piping between the gas valve and the
ground-joint union.
6. Remove the four screws securing the burner assembly
to the unit.
7. Carefully remove the burner assembly from the unit.

10. Remove the screws securing the collector pan cover
to the unit. Remove the cover plate.
11. Attach a round wire brush to a length of high grade
stainless steel cable, such as drain cleanout cable.
Attach the other end of the spring cable to a variable
speed reversible drill. Slowly insert and rotate the cable
into the top portion of the heat exchanger. Operate the
drill alternating between forward and reverse, working
the cable in and out several times to obtain sufficient
cleaning. Repeat this sequence for each heat exchanger
tube.
12. Remove all loosened debris from the heat exchanger
tubes using high pressure air and vacuum cleaner.
13. Using a light, check the condition of the upper and
lower sections of the heat exchanger tube.
14. Inspect the burners and if necessary, clean them
carefully with a soft wire brush and/or the nozzle of a
vacuum cleaner.
