This switch also prevents operation when the propane tank
level is low which can result in gas with a high
concentration of impurities, additives, and residues that
have settled to the bottom of the tank. Operation under
these conditions can cause harm to the heat exchanger
system. Contact your fuel supplier if this condition is
suspected.
Flue Gas Passageways
To inspect the flue collector box and upper areas of the
heat exchanger:
1. Remove the combustion blower wheel and motor as-
sembly according to directions in Combustion--Air
Blower section. See Fig. 53.
2. Remove the flue cover to inspect the heat exchanger.
3. Clean all surfaces as required using a wire brush.
Combustion--Air Blower
Clean periodically to assure proper airflow and heating
efficiency. Inspect blower wheel every fall and
periodically during heating season. For the first heating
season, inspect blower wheel bi--monthly to determine
proper cleaning frequency.
To access burner section, open the heater access door
below the indoor fan panel.
To inspect blower wheel, shine a flashlight into draft hood
opening. If cleaning is required, remove motor and wheel
as follows:
1. Remove the seven screws attaching the induced--draft
motor housing to the vestibule plate. See Fig. 53.
2. The blower wheel can be cleaned at this point. If ad-
ditional cleaning is required, continue with Steps 3
through 5.
3. Remove the blower from the motor shaft, by
loosening two setscrews.
4. Remove the motor by removing the four screws that
hold the motor to mounting plate. Remove the motor
cooling fan by removing one setscrew.
5. Remove the nuts that hold the motor to the mounting
plate.
6. To reinstall, reverse the procedure outlined above.
