Filter Maintenance

The B33DHW comes with a washable filter. Check filter every two months. Clean or replace the filter as neces-

sary.

Removing the Filter:

 

Remove the screws on the front cover and then push the front cover up gently to free the cover hooks from the 

chassis. Filter is located on the back side of the front cover. Gently remove the filter by lifting the bottom side 

corners first to prevent bending it.

Filter Cleaning:

 

The filter can be vacuumed with a wet / dry vac or washed with warm water.

Reinstalling the Filter:

 

Insert the filter into the tabs on top of mount and flex the filter to insert it into the bottom tabs. Reinstall the cover 

by lining up the tabs, sliding down into place, and secure with included tamper resistant or phillips screws.

Return Air

The B33DHW functions by drawing moist 

air in through the bottom portion of the 

diffuser and returning dried air to the space 

out the top portion of the diffuser.

Note:

 Avoid blocking the return and  

supply air flow to maximize unit  

performance and prevent heat build  

up. Furniture must be at least 6" 

away from the diffuser.

Diffuser Maintenance

It is recommended to use a mild detergent to clean the surface of the diffuser, especially around the edges where 

the return air is flowing into the unit (see illustration below). This is where air is being drawn into the filter and may 

collect dust. Do not use harsh solvents on the diffuser.
The diffuser can be painted to blend in with interior aesthetics. Use only paint that is recommended for  

polycarbonate surfaces and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for surface prep and application.
