Routine Maintenance

To ensure proper unit operation, the air filters should be cleaned at least
monthly, and more frequently if conditions warrant. The unit must be turned
off before the filters are cleaned.
To Remove, Wash and Replace Filter
Lower front panel (See Figure 2). Use handle on filter to flex filter up and
out of retainer. Remove filter from unit (See Figure 3). Clean filter monthly
or more frequently if needed. Refer to accessories section for filter options.
Coils & Chassis
Do not use a caustic coil cleaning agent on coils or base pan.
NOTE:
Use a biodegradable cleaning agent and degreaser. The use
of harsh cleaning materials may lead to deterioration of the
aluminum fins or the coil end plates.
The indoor coil and outdoor coils and base pan should be inspected
periodically (annually or semi-annually) and cleaned of all debris (lint, dirt,
leaves, paper, etc.) as necessary. Under extreme conditions, more frequent
cleaning may be required. Clean the coils and base pan with a soft brush
and compressed air or vacuum. A pressure washer may also be used,
however, you must be careful not to bend the aluminum fin pack. Use a
sweeping up and down motion in the direction of the vertical aluminum fin
pack when pressure cleaning coils.
It is extremely important to ensure that none of the electrical
NOTE:
and/or electronic parts of the unit get wet. Be sure to cover all
electrical components to protect them from water or spray.
Decorative Front
The decorative front and discharge air grille may be cleaned with a mild
soap or detergent. Do NOT use solvents or hydrocarbon based cleaners
such as acetone, naphtha, gasoline, benzene, etc., to clean the decorative
front or air discharge grilles.
Use a damp (not wet) cloth when cleaning the control area to prevent
water from entering the unit, and possibly damaging the electronic control.
Fan Motor & Compressor
The fan motor & compressor are permanently lubricated, and require no
additional lubrication.
Wall Sleeve
Inspect the inside of the wall sleeve and drain system periodically (annually
or semi-annually) and clean as required. Under extreme conditions, more
frequent cleaning may be necessary. Clean both of these areas with an
antibacterial and antifungal cleaner. Rinse both items thoroughly with water
and ensure that the drain outlets are operating correctly. Check the sealant
around the sleeve and reseal areas as needed.
