. Keep the air filter clean. (See
instructions on page 5.)
●
For most efficient cooling, keep
vent in closed position except when
you want to exhaust air, smoke or
odors from the room.
●
Don’t let the room get too
hot. Whenever possible, turn the
unit on before the room heats up.
When heat is “stored up” in walls,
furniture, rugs and draperies, your
air conditioner takes longer to
produce the desired comfort
condition.
. Keep windows and doors
closed. Cool, dry air escapes when
they’re open.
● Keep furnace floor registers and
cold air returns closed. Cold air
can easily escape through them.
●
Don’t let drapes or furniture block
top or front of unit and restrict air
flow when it is operating.
●
It’s best to operate your air
conditioner at high speed during
extremely hot weather.
●
Keep outdoor condenser coil
clean. (See page 5.)
●
Turn air conditioner off before
vacations or extended absences
from home.
