. 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.
