Air Exchanger Maintenance

Don’t forget to clean your air exchanger while doing your spring cleaning this year. Your air exchanger is usually a box that is located in your laundry or utility room. It has three to four insulated tubes coming out of it. UNPLUG it before you work on it. Then simply slip the filters out and proceed with the maintenance listed on the instructions. Air exchangers can plug up with dust, leaves, hair, and worst of all, mold, since they also recycle hot humid air from kitchens and bathrooms.

This is an example of what an air exchanger might look like.
This is the inside. There are instructions listed on how to maintain the unit.
