Maintenance Tips
-
Inspect Gas Connections – Regularly check the natural gas connections for leaks or wear. Tighten any loose connections and replace damaged parts to avoid gas leaks.
-
Clean Stainless Steel Heat Exchanger – Ensure the heat exchanger is clean from dust, dirt, or any debris. This promotes efficient heating and prevents overheating.
-
Check Burner Operation – Inspect the burner to ensure the flame is blue and steady. If the flame is yellow or fluctuating, the burner may need cleaning or adjustment.
-
Clear Venting System – Verify that the venting system is free from obstructions to allow proper air circulation. Blocked vents can lead to poor combustion.
-
Test Direct Spark Ignition – Ensure the ignition system sparks reliably. Clean or replace the ignition components if necessary for consistent performance.
-
Air Filter Maintenance – Regularly check and replace the air filter to ensure proper airflow. A clogged filter can reduce efficiency and increase energy consumption.
-
Monitor Thermostat – Ensure the thermostat is functioning correctly and maintaining accurate temperature readings. Recalibrate if necessary.
-
Annual Inspection – Have a qualified technician perform a professional inspection yearly to ensure safety and efficiency.
