WARNING
Air Filter(s)
Air filters should be checked at least every 3 or 4 weeks and
changed or cleaned whenever they become dirty. Table 1 indicates
the correct filter size for your unit. Open the filter access panel to
replace or inspect the filters. All units have filter tracks into which
the filters slide. Remove the filters by pulling the filter slide
outward from the track. See Fig. 6 for filter access panel location.
Note the direction of flow arrows on the filter frame.
If you have difficulty in locating your air filter in the return--air
duct system, or if you have questions concerning proper filter
maintenance, contact your dealer for instructions. When replacing
your unit filters, always use the same size and type of filter that was
originally supplied by the installer.
Filter tracks are field
convertible for 2 or 4--in. thick filters. Verify airflow and duct
static values and related motor sizing and belt drive adjustment, if
filter type or efficiency rating is changed from the original
installation.
Units with outdoor air capability have cleanable filters for the
outdoor air. These filters should be checked quarterly and cleaned
as necessary. Remove by pulling out the middle of the hood top.
Push up on the center filter and then remove. Slide the other filters
to the center and repeat.
FIRE AND EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury,
death, and/or property damage.
Never operate unit without filters in place. Damage to blower
motor and/or compressors could result. An accumulation of
dust and lint on internal parts of your unit can cause loss of
efficiency and in some cases, fire.
