Normally, the fresh air filter will need to be removed and cleaned every six months, but check it after the first three months following installation to
determine if more or less frequent cleaning will be necessary . After cleaning the filter inside the ventilator, clean off the screen at the fresh air intake
hood on the outside of the house . The most common cause of reduced ventilation is a clogged air intake hood .
To clean the ventilator filter
(see FIGURE 14):
1. Flex the outside edges of
the filter door to disengage
it from the housing .
2. Lift the filter door and
remove the filter from the
ventilator .
3. Use water to rinse the
filter and shake the excess
moisture off the filter .
4. Replace the filter in the
ventilator and press the
outside edges of the filter
door to snap it in place .
