PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Water Coil Maintenance –
(Direct Ground Water Applications Only)
If the installation is performed in an area with a known
high mineral content (125 P.P.M. or greater) in the
water, it is best to establish with the owner a periodic
maintenance schedule so the coil can be checked
regularly. Consult the well water applications section
of this manual for a more detailed water coil material
selection. Should periodic coil cleaning be necessary, use
standard coil cleaning procedures which are compatible
with either the heat exchanger material or copper water
lines. Generally, the more water fl owing through the unit
the less chance for scaling therefore 1.5 gpm per ton is
recommended as a minimum fl ow.
Water Coil Maintenance –
(Other Water Loop Applications)
Generally water coil maintenance is not needed however,
if the installation is located in a system with a known
high dirt or debris content, it is best to establish with
the owner a periodic maintenance schedule so the coil
can be checked regularly. These dirty installations are a
result of the deterioration of iron or galvanized piping
or components in the system or open cooling towers
requiring heavy chemical treatment and mineral buildup
through water use. Should periodic coil cleaning be
necessary, use standard coil cleaning procedures which
are compatible with both the heat exchanger material and
copper water lines. Generally, the more water fl owing
through the unit, the less chance for scaling, however fl ow
rates over 3 gpm per ton can produce water (or debris)
velocities that can erode the heat exchanger wall and
ultimately produce leaks.
Filters – Filters must be clean to obtain maximum
performance. They should be inspected every month
under normal operating conditions and be replaced when
necessary. Units should never be operated without a fi lter.
Washable high effi ciency electrostatic fi lters, when dirty,
can exhibit a very high pressure drop for the fan motor
and reduce air fl ow resulting in poor performance. With
ICM2 fan motors, excessive fan watts will be used as
well. It is especially important to provide consistent
washing of these fi lters (in opposite direction of the
normal air fl ow) once per month using a high pressure
wash similar to that found at self-serve car washes.
Condensate Drain – In areas where airborne bacteria
produce a slime in the drain pan, it may be necessary to
treat chemically with an algaecide every three months
or so to minimize the problem. The condensate pan may
also need to be cleaned periodically to assure indoor air
quality. The condensate drain can pick up lint and dirt,
especially with dirty fi lters. Inspect the drain twice a year
to avoid the possibility of overfl ow.
Fan Motors - All units have lubricated fan motors.
FAN MOTORS SHOULD NEVER BE LUBRICATED
UNLESS OBVIOUS, DRY OPERATION IS
SUSPECTED. Periodic maintenance oiling is not
recommended because it will result in dirt accumulating
on excess oil and cause eventual motor failure.
Air Coil – The air coil must be cleaned to obtain
maximum performance. Check once a year under normal
operating conditions and, if dirty, brush or vacuum clean.
Care must be taken not to damage the aluminum fi ns
while cleaning. CAUTION: Fin edges are sharp.
Hot Water Generator Coils – See water coil maintenance
for ground water units. If the domestic water is hard or
not chemically softened the high temperatures of the
desuperheater will tend to "lime up" even quicker than the
water coil and may need more frequent inspections.
Cabinet - Do not allow water to stay in contact with the
cabinet for long periods of time to prevent corrosion of
the cabinet sheet metal. Generally the cabinet is set up
from the fl oor a few inches for prevention. The cabinet
can be cleaned using a mild detergent.
Refrigerant System - To maintain sealed circuit integrity,
do not install service gauges unless unit operation appears
abnormal. Reference the operating chart for pressure and
temperatures. Verify that air and water fl ow rates are at
proper levels before servicing the refrigerant circuit.
