Tips before installation

Your Room Air Conditioner unit is designed to
be highly efficient and save energy. Follow these
recommendations for greater efficiency.
1. Select thermostat setting that suits your
comfort needs and leave the thermostat at
that chosen setting.
2. The air filter is very efficient in removing airborne
particles. Keep the air filter clean. Typically, filter
should be cleaned once a month. More
frequent cleaning may be necessary depending
on outdoor and indoor air quality.
3. Use drapes, curtains, or shades to keep
direct sunlight from heating your room, but
DO NOT obstruct the air conditioner. Allow air to
circulate around the unit without obstructions.
4. Start your air conditioner before outdoor
air becomes hot and uncomfortable. This
avoids an initial period of discomfort while
the unit is cooling off the room.
5. When outdoor temperature is cool
enough, use HIGH or LOW FAN
only. This circulates indoor air, providing
some cooling comfort, and utilizes less
electricity than when operating on a
cooling setting.
Your Room Air Conditioner was designed
for easy installation in a single or double-hung
window. NOTE: This unit is NOT designed for
vertical (slider type) windows.
