4. Maintenance
It is the user's responsibility to clean off any accumulated dust, lint, or other debris from the front and rear intake grills. This will restrict the airflow and may affect the unit's ability to function properly. Periodically cleaning the unit's vents will help assure maximum cooling efficiency. The drain tube must also be checked and kept clean and free of debris and mold to maintain proper performance.
Mold is a natural living organism in the environment. It exists in the air in the form of microscopic spores that move in and out of buildings through doors, windows, vents, HVAC systems and anywhere else that air enters. Once it is discovered, mold must be addressed quickly and appropriately. Delayed or improper treatment of mold issues can result in costly and reoccurring repairs. If you suspect you have a mold problem, it is always best to hire a qualified and experienced mold remediation specialist.
