IMPORTANT
Dirty or clogged filters may cause inadequate ventilation in the home which may lead to
air quality issues. It is important that the filters are changed at least once per year or as
required.
In new build properties it may be prudent to check/ change your filters after the first 3
months of occupancy depending on the amount of residual ‘building dust’ present
within the property. Failure to do so will affect your warranty.
