How to clean &
change your lter
Check the air lter once every couple of weeks.
Dirt, dust, and other particles can block the airow. This
isn’t great for the efciency of the machine or your air!
To clean the included antimicrobial lter:
1. Remove the front intake grille. Place your hands in
the bottom groove and pull out (it’s magnetic, so should
be easy!)
2. Remove the lter. Use the plastic grips near each hole
as you pull out. Be careful not to snap off the plastic
pegs where the lter rests.
3. Wash the lter. Use warm water below 100 degrees
fahrenheit. Lightly shake off excess water. Do not use
soap to clean the lter.
4. Return lter and front intake grille. Align the holes in
the lter with the plastic pegs. When it is secure, insert
the front intake grille’s magnets into their respective
holes on the front bezel.
For cleaner, fresher air, we also included (for free!) a removable
activated carbon lter, which helps remove odors, smoke, and
VOCs (volatile organic compounds) from the air. To learn more and

WARNING
● Power off and unplug the AC before you change the lter.
For our WhisperTech™ models only, you will have an additional
(washable) filter on the bottom of the AC (right behind the
removable front panel). You can clean this smaller bottom filter
like the larger mesh filter - under warm water. You should clean
this filter every couple of weeks during periods of heavy use.
