CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Periodic Maintenance
Periodic maintenance is recommended to ensure proper operation of the unit. Recommended maintenance intervals may vary depending on the installation environment, e.g., dusty zones, etc
Cleaning the Coil
Clean the coil at the beginning of each cooling season, or when necessary. Use a vacuum cleaner or a long-bristle brush to avoid damage to the coil fins.
Cleaning the Air Filters
