Optimizing Performance For Maximum Performance and Efficiency: 1. Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use. 2. Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do not obstruct the air intake. 3. Minimize the length of the exhaust hose. 4. Make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible. 5. Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the day. 6. Use the timer to operate the unit before it is needed.
