existing filter in the residential unit. The size of each filter (2 required per unit) is as follows: 6-3/4" x6-1/4" x 3/16"
NOTE: Filters must be used ,otherwise the face of the energy exchange core will become blocked by dust. The filters existing in the unit are usually able to

Clean the face of the energy exchange core yearly:
1.Open the door and pull out the core.
2.Vacuum the exposed faces of the energy exchange core with a soft brush attachment.
3.After maintenance, re-install the core.
4.Vacuum out dust from the rest of the unit case. Dust collects only on the entering faces of the energy exchange core. The interior of the energy
exchange core stays clean even if the core faces are dust covered.
