2. MAINTENANCE A Model CAUA will operate with a minimum of maintenance. To ensure long life
and satisfactory performance, a heater that is operated under normal condi-
tions should be inspected and cleaned at the start of each heating season. If
the heater is operating in an area where an unusual amount of dust, soot, or
other impurities are present in the air, more frequent maintenance is recom-
mended. If the system includes a cooling coil, the coil and condensate drains
should be checked at the beginning of the cooling season.
The paragraphs that follow discuss the components and systems that require
routine inspection/maintenance. At the beginning of each section, there is a
code indicating the main reason why that maintenance procedure is neces-
sary. The legend for that code is shown on the left.
WARNING: If you
turn off the power
supply, turn off the
gas. See Hazard
Levels, Page 2.
