PRIMARY FILTER & CATALYTIC SCREEN CLEANING
You have three options to clean the Primary filter and the Catalytic Screen:
1. When visibly dirty or after 30 days, remove the primary filter and the catalytic screen
from the unit. With a hand-held vacuum, remove the heavy particulates from both
filters. This method will extend the life of the filters and ensure proper function of the
catalytic screen.
2. If vacuuming does not clean the filter sufficiently, remove the primary filter and the
catalytic screen from the unit and wash them in warm water. Brush gently with a
toothbrush to remove particulates. Allow to dry thoroughly before re-installing.
NOTE: Do not use soap because it could damage the filters.
3. If a replacement or additional filter and/or catalytic screen are needed, contact the
dealer you purchased your product from or visit www.rppurchase.com to locate your
closest dealer.
