factory equipped for use with bottom return air only. If side reĆ

Filters must be cleaned or replaced when dirty to assure
proper unit operation. Replace with same hogshair-type
filter material cut to specific measurements for each unit

The factory supplied filter can be washed with cold water.
Direct water through filters in the opposite direction of air
flow. When dry, replace filter and reconnect springs. Refer
