Rheem heating and cooling combined unit safety tips

• Conduct yearly maintenance. Have a HVAC service technician inspect, clean and perform required maintenance on your central air conditioning system annually. The service technician will examine the unit thoroughly for possible safety hazards such as worn components and shorts in the electrical system.
• Change the air filters regularly. The air filters remove contaminants from the air in your home. Use allergen air filters to remove dust and pollen that can cause breathing problems.
• Disconnect electrical power from the heating and cooling combined unit anytime you perform maintenance or access internal wiring or components to complete repairs.
• Read and follow all operational and safety instructions in the owner's manual for your heating and cooling combined unit.
• Have a service technician examine and repair the heating and cooling combined unit whenever it fails and you're not able to fix the problem with simple troubleshooting steps described in the owner's manual.

Common Rheem heating and cooling combined unit parts that need replacing

• Air filter. Replace the air filter monthly or as directed in your heating and cooling combined unit’s owner’s manual. Replacing the air filter regularly helps keep the heating and cooling combined unit running smoothly and helps the unit last longer.
• Thermostat. The thermostat turns the heating and cooling combined unit on and off. The thermostat can eventually wear out or break. Replace the thermostat if it doesn’t control temperature accurately or doesn’t turn on the heating and cooling combined unit at all.
• Blower motor. The blower motor often runs for long periods without stopping. The bearings that support the motor shaft can wear out over time. Electrical problems inside the motor can also prevent the blower motor from running. Replace the blower motor if it doesn’t run or makes loud noises when running.
