The Emerson Media Air Cleaner comes complete with a 4"
media furnace air filter. This filter must be changed every three
to six months to maintain efficiency of the filter and furnace
system.

Filter Compartment.
The fiber filter used in this cabinet for air cleaning
must be replaced every 90 to 180 days. Your heating

air flow when filter becomes dirty.

of the unit, serious personal injury or death.

failures due to incorrect installation procedures.
