Keep the filter clean
Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top per-
forming condition by cleaning the filter regularly. Instruc-
tions for removing and cleaning the filter can be found on
page 5 and 6.
Providegoodairflow
Make sure that the airflow to and from the unit is clear.
Your air conditioner puts the conditioned
air out at the top
of the unit, and takes in unconditioned
air at the bottom.
Airflow is critical to good operation. It is just as important
on the outside of the building that the airflow around the
unit exterior is not blocked.
Insulation
Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable
comfort levels. Doors should have weather stripping. Be
sure to caulk around doors and windows.
Properinstallationof sealgasket
Make sure the seal gasket has been installed properly to
minimize noise and improve efficiency. If the seal gasket
has not been installed,
please refer to your installation
instruction manual.
Unit placement
If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or a wall
that is shaded by a tree or another building, the unit will
operate even more efficiently. Using drapes or blinds on
the sunny side of the dwelling will also add to your unit's
efficiency.
