Fan & Blower Area Cleaning: With power off, gently wipe the fan and blower area occasionally to prevent grease accumulation and sustain suction performance.
-
Duct & Vent Inspection: Seasonally inspect ductwork and external vent caps for obstructions to ensure efficient airflow.
-
Controls & Lights: Wipe control panels and lights with a damp cloth, avoiding moisture near electrical parts.
