Lecture Notes: Cleaning Ductless Mini-Split Air Filters
Introduction to Ductless Mini-Split Systems
Purpose
: Ideal for homes without ductwork.
Features
:
Provides individual room comfort.
Comparable comfort level to central AC units.
Functions as heat pumps, suitable for shoulder seasons.
Operates quietly compared to bulky window units.
Operation and Control
Each mini-split unit comes with a controller:

Utilize economy mode.
Set different schedules for temperature changes.
Cleaning the Air Filters
Initial Step
:
Turn off the unit before beginning the cleaning process.
Removing Filters
:
Lift tabs on the side of the unit.
Slide out filters using the guide arrow.
Note: Filters can accumulate dust quickly, especially in environments with ongoing construction.
Cleaning Process
:
Recommended to clean the air filters about once a month.
Use a vacuum to remove dust from both sides of the filters.

Reinstalling Filters
:
Use the arrow guide to position the filter.
Slide the filter back in, ensuring it fits properly under the edges.
Importance of Regular Cleaning
Ensures the unit brings in clean air.
Prevents airflow obstruction, maintaining unit efficiency.
Filters are advantageous over typical window AC units due to their ability to maintain air quality.
Conclusion
Regular maintenance of filters is crucial to the effectiveness and efficiency of ductless mini-split systems.
