How is an air curtain maintained?
Using an air curtain with a dirty air intake is like running it at a fraction of its full potential. That’s why the first step in any maintenance procedure is to switch off the unit at the electrical panel to avoid any risk. Then, to ensure maximum efficiency, it’s essential to keep the intake grille and filters clean. You can vacuum the air intake grille and wipe it down with a damp cloth.
Additionally, to reduce any potential risks during maintenance, it’s strongly recommended that servicing be performed by a certified technician. Under normal operating conditions, the air curtain should be cleaned at least twice a year—or more frequently if the unit is operating in dusty or corrosive environments.
