TRANE XV18 Heat Pump and Air Conditioners

Congratulations on the purchase of your new outdoor unit. Your outdoor unit is designed to work with a matched indoor unit creating a system that delivers years of dependable service and performance.

Proper Maintenance

Your system requires maintenance and repair by a properly trained service technician. “Do-it-yourself” repairs on an in-warranty unit may void vour warranty.
Other than performing the simple maintenance recommended below, you should not attempt to make any adjustments or repairs to your system. Your dealer can assist you with questions or problems.

Replace the air filters)

A clean filter saves you money by helping ensure top system efficiency.
When replacing your filter(s), always use the same size and type that was originally supplied or consult with your dealer for recommendations. Be sure to replace it with the arrows pointing in the direction of the airflow.
Where disposable filters are used, they must be replaced every month with the same size as originally supplied. Clean or replace your filter twice a month during seasons when the unit runs more often.
Ask your dealer where the filter is located in vour system and how to service it.

Maintain free outdoor coil airflow

Efficient operation of your system depends on the free flow of air over outdoor unit’s coil.
Do not plant flowers or shrubbery right next to the unit. Also, make sure that nothing is stacked against the sides of the unit or draped over it.
Buildup of snow and ice can restrict airflow. As soon as possible after accumulation, clean snow from the area around the outdoor unit.

Clean the finish

To ensure the longevity of the outdoor unit appearance, clean the exterior finish with soap and fresh water.
For stubborn grease spots, use a household detergent. Do not use lacquer thinner or other syn- thetic solvents as they may damage the finish.
Note: For coastal region locations, a monthly fresh water rinse is recommended.

Call your dealer for additional routine maintenance

Your system should be inspected at least once per year by a properly trained service technician.
Ask your dealer about economical service or preventative maintenance agreements that cover seasonal inspections.
Optional extended warranties are also available.
