PERFORMING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
With the proper maintenance and care, your system will operate economically and dependably. Maintenance can be
accomplished easily by referring to the following directions. However, before performing any maintenance, consider these
important safety precautions:
WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard. Before attempting any service work or routine maintenance, turn off all electrical
connections to the unit. Failure to do so may result in property damage, personal injury and/or death.
CAUTION: Although great care has been taken to minimize sharp edges in the construction of your unit, be extremely
careful when handling parts or reaching into the unit.
REPLACE AIR FILTER
A dirty air filter reduces the efficiency of your Vert-I-Pak and allows lint and dirt to accumulate on the indoor-air coil. Lint and
dirt on the indoor-air coil can damage your unit and void the warranty. The air filter should be replaced as it becomes dirty.
To replace the filter (front air return units):
1. Slide the filter to the right until it clears the filter rails (See Figure 12).
2. Remove the filter.
3. Install new disposable filter.
CAUTION: Do not operate your system without a filter in place, nor block the front of the unit return air opening.
To remove the filter,
slide it to the right side
of the unit as shown.
