Energy Saving Tips

• Do not locate the air conditioner where furniture or other objects can obstruct
the airflow.
• Keep blinds/curtains closed during the sunniest part of the day.
• Close the fireplace damper and floor or wall grills so that cool air does not escape
through the chimney or ductwork.
• Keep the filters clean.
Set the unit to maximum cooling and high speed fan initially, then adjust the unit to a
comfortable setting.
NOTE: It is recommended to turn on the air conditioner when the room
temperature is around 75
°
F. Do not wait until the room is excessively hot.

rinse them thoroughly under running water (no hotter than 104

Dry thoroughly before replacing.
