For the best cooling performance and highest energy efficiency
Keep the filter clean
Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top performing condition by cleaning the filter regularly. Instructions for removing
and cleaning the filter can be found on page 12.
Provide good air flow
Make sure the airflow to and from the unit is clear. Your air conditioner blow the cold air out at the top of the unit, and takes in the
warm air from the room at the bottom. Airflow is critical to good operation. It is just as important on the outside of the building that
the airflow around the unit exterior is not blocked.
Unit placement
If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or wall that is shaded by a tree or another building, the unit will operate even more
efficiently. Using drapes or blinds on the sunny side of the dwelling will also add to your unit’s efficiency.
Insulation
Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable comfort levels. Doors should have weather stripping. Be sure to caulk
around doors and windows.
Note: if you switch from Cool mode to Fan Only, and switch back to COOL mode, there is a three minute delay before the
compressor comes back on.
