Watch: cleaning a split AC filter in under five minutes
The single easiest thing you can do for your AC — shown step by step by the manufacturer.
A clogged filter makes your AC work harder, cool less and cost more to run. Cleaning it takes minutes and no tools.
- Switch off the AC and unplug it or turn off its breaker.
- Open the front panel and slide the filters out gently.
- Rinse or vacuum the dust off. Use lukewarm water if they are greasy.
- Dry fully in the shade before putting them back.
