When the air conditioner works very, it tends to accumulate a considerable amount of dust, giving off foul odors generated by a closed environment.

All appliances are equipped with appropriate filters to absorb a greater quantity of substances present on the premises. While performing ordinary and useful maintenance such as washing and cleaning filters, they can often spread to the home of the unpleasant odors to be eliminated.

In the hot summer months, the air conditioner’s use is frequent, both in private homes and workplaces. It can sometimes be almost impossible to do without. When this unit operates with the fan’s sun, the air may be generated musty smelling.

So it’s best to ensure that the flow of arrivals with a certain fragrance: to achieve this, first removed the filters (following the instructions in the user manual and removing power!) and clean them if you use a compressor, otherwise avoid using the hairdryer because it would not help: wash with a jet of water and a sponge soaked in vinegar, then rinse them, dry them and put them back perfectly.
