Maintenance Tips
-
Clean & Wash Air Filters Frequently: Remove the washable indoor unit filters every 4–6 weeks (or more in dusty conditions). Rinse with lukewarm water and let them dry fully before reinstalling to maintain airflow and efficiency.
-
Dust Indoor Unit Exterior: Wipe the indoor unit’s front panel and louvers regularly with a soft, dry cloth to stop dust from entering internal components.
-
Keep Outdoor Unit Clear: Remove leaves, grass, debris, and vegetation around the outdoor condenser to ensure unobstructed airflow and heat transfer.
-
Inspect Condensate Drain Line: Periodically check that the indoor unit’s drain is unobstructed to prevent moisture buildup and potential leaks.
-
Annual Professional Servicing: Schedule yearly HVAC maintenance to check refrigerant charge, electrical connections, clean coils, and verify system performance.
-
Watch for Early Issues: Reduced airflow, unusual noises, or inconsistent temperatures can signal a need for cleaning or professional service early.
-
Maintain Adequate Airflow: Don’t block the indoor unit’s intake or discharge areas with furniture or curtains — unrestricted airflow keeps efficiency high.
