HOW THE CompleteHeat SYSTEM WORKS
The CompleteHeat system consists of a heating module (HM30) that produces hot water and an air hanĆ
dling module (AM30) that sends warmed air through the home's duct system. The two modules may be
installed together (closeĆcoupled) or apart (remote).
The system's operation begins when cold potable water fills the water storage tank through the pipe at
the top of the HM30 unit. When heat is needed to produce warm water or air, the HM30 control tells the
combustion air blower to draw in outside air for use in combustion. After a short safety delay, a fuel mixĆ
ture is sent into the burner where it is ignited by an electronic spark. Burning fuel moves through the
stainless steel heat exchanger inside the water storage tank. The water surrounding the heat exchanger is
heated until the water temperature reaches the desired setpoint on the water thermostat dial.
Combustion products travel out of the heat exchanger, condensate water is drained, and exhaust gases
are vented safely to the outdoors. Hot water is directed from the HM30 to faucets, shower heads, and
appliances (such as the dishwasher and washing machine) through the plumbing located on top of the
HM30 unit.
When the room thermostat senses a need for heat, the AM30 water circulating pump draws hot water
from the HM30 heating module and routes it through the AM30 space heating coil. The aluminium and
copper coil absorbs heat from the water. The blower turns on, blowing air across the heated coil.
Warmed air is sent through the air duct system into the home. Water circulates back to the HM30 unit to
be reheated until the room temperature reaches the thermostat setting.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Consider the materials stored near to the CompleteHeat system. Make sure the area around both AM30
and HM30 units has adequate space according to the prescribed clearances. DO NOT store combustible
materials such as newspapers, rags, mops, or flammable liquids such as gasoline, kerosene, paint thinner
near this or any other heating appliance.
Vapors from flammable liquids will explode and catch fire
causing death or severe burns.
FOR YOUR SAFETY - Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable, combustible, or corrosive vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this appliance.
Keep flammable products:
1. far away from heater,
2. in approved containers,
3. tightly closed, and
Vapors:
1. cannot be seen,
2. are heavier than air,
3. go a long way on the floor and
4. can be carried from other rooms
to the heater by air currents.
4. out of childrens reach.
Water temperature over 125_F can cause severe burns
instantly or death from scalds.
Children, disabled and elderly are at high risk of being
scalded.
See the Adjusting Water Temperature section in this
manual before setting temperature at heat module
(HM30 unit). Feel water before bathing or showering.
Temperature limiting valves are available and are recomĆ
mended for all applications.

1-STOP! Read the safety information at the beĆ
ginning of this section.
2-Set both room thermostat and water temperature
dial to lowest settings.
3-Turn off all electrical power to the CompleteHeat
system (AM30 & HM30 unit). Ask your dealer to
identify the disconnect switch or circuit breaker.
4-The HM30 unit is equipped with an ignition device
which automatically lights the burner. Do not try to
light the burner by hand.
5-Turn knob on main manual shutĆoff valve 90_ counterclockwise to ON. Do not force.

HOW TO SET THE ROOM THERMOSTAT
Your thermostat may vary from this example; however, the operation is similar.
TEMPERATURE SETTING LEVERS
Simply set the indicator lever or dial on the
thermostat to the desired temperature for heating
and cooling modes.
SYSTEM SWITCH
Set the system switch for either heating, cooling or
auto (if available). AutoĆchangeover is a setting that
allows the system to heat or cool, depending on the
need, without manually switching from one to
another. This setting is useful during seasonal
changes when heating may be needed in the
morning and cooling in the afternoon.
FAN SWITCH
In AUTO or INT setting, the blower runs only when
the thermostat calls for either heating or cooling.
The ON or CONT setting runs the blower for
constant air circulation and filtering, regardless of
whether the equipment is heating or cooling. If your
thermostat does not have ON or CONT settings and
the continuous fan option is desired, ask your dealer
about an optional continuous fan switch. In high
humidity areas, the continuous fan operation tends
to increase indoor humidity levels, ask your dealer
which setting is best for your area.
TEMPERATURE INDICATOR
The temperature indicator needle shows the actual
room temperature.

PROGRAMMABLE THERMOSTATS
Many systems are installed with a programmable thermostat. These thermostats provide the same
SYSTEM and FAN control as standard thermostats, but also provide the feature of setting certain
temperatures for different times of the day or days of the week. Most provide for the selection of both
heating and cooling set points (the temperature at which you want that mode to come on). Refer to the
separate instructions provided with your programmable thermostat for operation and adjustments.

ADJUSTING WATER TEMPERATURE
Remove the HM30 access panel. The water temperature dial is loĆ
cated at the lower left hand side of the HM30 control box. It is facĆ
tory set at 120_F (49_C). Water temperature setting may be raised
by turning dial clockwise to the desired setting. Temperature setĆ
tings are marked from 110_F (43_C) to 140_F (60_C). Each dash
mark represents an increase of 10_F (5.6_C). Some local building
codes limit the temperature of potable water to 120_F (49_C). Ask
your Lennox dealer for information on highest allowable water
temperatures and the use of antiĆscald and pointĆofĆuse water mixĆ
ing valves. These valves help reduce the risk of scalding.
KEEPING YOUR SYSTEM IN TOP FORM
HM30 Tank Draining Procedure
It is recommended that 5 to 10 gallons of water from the HM30 tank be drained every six months to reĆ
move any sediment. This may need to be done more often in areas of poor water condition.
1-Turn off power to unit and allow water temperature in HM30 tank to cool.
2-Remove HM30 access panel.
3-Connect hose to drain valve and route to open drain.
4-Open drain valve to allow water to flow.
5-After draining, close drain valve and disconnect hose. Replace access panel.
6-Fill tank with water and reĆapply power to the unit.
DO NOT reĆapply power to a dry tank. The burner should never operate with an empty water tank. Irreparable
damage to the HM30 unit may occur.

Filter
AM30 Air Module and Filters
Having a clean filter is the most important step in keeping your new
heating and air conditioning system working to its full potential.
Dirt, dust and pet hair clog the filter as air cycles through the system.
Dirty filters make the equipment work harder which causes the unit
to use more energy than normal. A system with dirty filters will not
provide you with the comfort you expect. Cleaning or

Return Air Filter
(Upflow shown)
replacing the filter is much less expensive than higher
energy bills or damaged equipment.
Pull filter door
to remove filter
Make sure that all the power is OFF to the unit
before attempting to change filter. Have the dealer
show you where your unit's filter is located. The
filter may be found either inside or outside the
AM30 air module or in the wall at the return air
grille. If the filter is in the air module, it may be
inside the unit behind an access panel or located on
the side of the unit in an external filter rack. If
replacement is necessary, always replace it with the
same type of filter. If you don't know what filter you
need, call your Lennox dealer with the model
number of the unit. The dealer will be able to tell you
what type and size filter you need.
Remove lower
access panel.
Press side clips
and pull filter
up and out.
The filter shipped with the AM30 unit is reusable and can be
cleaned with a mild soap and water. The filter should be completely dried before being returned to the
unit . When replacing, look for the airflow direction arrow marked on the filter. Disposable filters (used
at the return air grille) cannot be cleaned but should be replaced every month. During times of heavy
usage, it is beneficial to vacuum the filter in between changes or cleanings.
Your system may include an electronic air cleaner which rids your home of even the smallest particles of
dirt, dust and pollen. Ask your Lennox dealer to instruct you on its maintenance.
