important, especially in areas near oceans or where rust is a
problem. If needed, touch up with a good grade enamel paint.
Annual Maintenance
Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure
steady, top performance throughout the year. Call your local
authorized dealer to schedule an annual checkup. The expense

Air conditioner seems to run too much
■The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The
use ofmore efficient components may cause the air
conditioner to run longer than an older model, but the total
energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do
not emit the "blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to
from older air conditioners, but this is not an indication of
lesser cooling capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency
rating (EER) and capacity rating (in Btu/h) marked on the air
conditioner.
■The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heat-
producing appliances are in use in the room. Use exhaust
vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat-
producing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A
higher capacity air conditioner may be required, depending
on the sizeof the room being cooled.
