How To Clean The Air Filter

The filter prevents dust and other particles from
entering the indoor unit. Dust buildup can reduce
the efficiency of the air conditioner. For optimum
efficiency, clean the air filter every two weeks, or
more frequently if you live in a dusty area. Replace
the filter with a new one if it's heavily clogged and
unable to be cleaned.
