Maintenance Tips

Fan & Blower Area: With power off, gently clean around the fan/blower area occasionally to prevent grease accumulation and sustain strong suction.
-
Duct & Vent Inspection: Seasonally inspect ductwork and external vent caps for obstructions to ensure efficient airflow and optimal ventilation.
