Annually (before heating season) inspect furnace venting
system, vent cap, heat exchanger, and burners for
corrosion, deterioration, or deposits of debris. Remove any
obstructions.
Inspect the furnace for obvious signs of deterioration.
Inspect the furnace venting system to make sure it is in
place, physically sound, and without holes, corrosion, or
blockage.
Vent pipe must be clear and free of obstructions and must
slope upward away from the furnace.
Inspect the furnace return air duct connection to ensure duct
is sealed to the furnace and terminates outside the space
containing the furnace.
Inspect the physical support of the furnace to guarantee that
it is sound without sagging, cracks or gaps around base and
it maintains seal between base and support.
Inspect the condensate drain and trap for leaks and cracks.
The drain and trap must also be cleaned and the trap must
be lled with water.
During a seasonal check the service technician will conduct
a combustion analysis. The technician will also inspect the
indoor blower, burner ames, electrical connections and the
venting system.

The blower motors are prelubricated for extended bearing
life. No further lubrication is needed.
