    CAC CASSETTE CONTROLS AND COMPONENTS Electromechanical Operation (Stan- dard): An optional thermostat can be ob- tained through EMI or your local distributor. NOTE: make sure the thermostat is suitable for unit operation (i.e., cool- ing only, cooling/electric heat, etc.) Filters: Metal framed filters are fitted. These are reusable and may be vacuum cleaned.
