About Your Heat Pump

Heat pumps can save money by removing heat from the

outside air—even when the outside temperature is below

one degree at one time. Raising the heat setting 2–3

When the outdoor temperature is determined to be too

cold, heat is provided by the electric heater instead of by

the heat pump.

Temperature Control

Do Not Operate the Air Conditioner (cool mode) in Freezing Outdoor Conditions

49-5000640 Rev. 2 5

Air Filters

NOTICE: Do not operate the Zoneline without the

filter in place. If a filter becomes torn or damaged, it

should be replaced immediately.

Operating without the filter in place or with a damaged

filter will allow dirt and dust to reach the indoor coil and

reduce the cooling/heating, performance, airflow, and

efficiency of the unit.

Dirty filters reduce cooling, heating performance and air

flow.

Changing the filter will: Decrease cost of operation,

save energy, prevent clogged heat exchanger coils, and

reduce the risk of premature component failure.

Replacement filters should be purchased from your local

retailer where air conditioner and furnace accessories

with 2" filter.

NOTE: Use only one filter in the installation.

To replace the filter (unit mounted return air filter):

2. Remove the filter.

To maintain optimum performance, change the filter

at least every 30 days. For other filter installation

options, see page 7.

CARE AND CLEANING

Care and Cleaning

Drain

Clean the drain system regularly to prevent clogging.

area. Check the unit condensate drain periodically. Keep

it free of anything that may block or impeded the flow of

matter in the drainpipe, it should be removed and cleaned.

Indoor/Outdoor Coils

The Indoor/Outdoor coils on the Zoneline should be

cleaned and checked regularly.

NOTE: When cleaning the coils do not use

acid-based coil cleaners, or cleaning agents with

formic or acetic acids. Care must be taken to avoid

bending the aluminum fins on the coils. Do not use

any high pressure spray mechanisms.

Indoor-Air Coil
