COOLING CONSERVATION
delivered by the blower, decreasing your units effi-
ciency and increasing operating costs and wear-and-
tear on the unit and controls.
To comfortably cool your home, your heat pump must
remove both heat and humidity. Don’t turn your system
off even though you will be away all day. On a hot day,
your system may have to operate between 8 and 12
hours to reduce the temperature in your home to a nor-
mal comfort level.
AIR FILTERS
3 THRU 6 TON
Units 3-6 Ton are shipped with 1" throwaway type air filters.
The filter racks on 3-6 ton units will receive 1" or 2" filters. Fil-
ters can also be installed in the building at a suitable return
air location if an economizer or outside air accessory is not
used. Filters must always be used. They should be inspected
once a month and thoroughly cleaned or replaced if it
appears they are beginning to accumulate excessive dirt. Fil-
ter sizes and quantities are shown in the following table.
Keep windows closed after sundown. While the out-
door temperature at night may be lower than indoors,
the air is generally loaded with moisture which is
soaked up by furniture, carpets and fabrics. This mois-
ture must be removed when you restart your system.
The hotter the outside temperature, the greater the
load on your system. Therefore do not be alarmed
when your system continues to run after the sun has
set on a hot day. Heat is stored in your outside walls
during the day and will continue to flow into your home
for several hours after sunset.

Use your kitchen exhaust fan when cooking. One sur-
face burner on “High” requires one ton of cooling. Turn
on your bathroom exhaust fan while showering to
remove humidity. You can also help your system in the
summer by closing drapes or blinds and lowering
awnings on windows that get direct sunlight.
