INSTALLATION
Cut off power supply at circuit breaker/fuse before proceeding to installation.
1. Open the door of the compartment where the filter must be installed.
2. Remove the new filter from its packaging and insert it into the filter rack. Pay attention to the direction of the filter; you must respect the direction of
the arrows indicating the direction of the airflow.
3. Close the filter rack door.
4. Restore the power supply of the furnace at circuit breaker/fuse and turn it on to check if it works well.
N.B.
If you encounter a problem after turning the furnace on, turn it off and check out the filter installation again. If required, contact
our customer service (see the “Limited warranty” section to obtain the phone numbers).

MAINTENANCE
Cut off power supply at circuit breaker/fuse before proceeding to maintenance.
When used under normal operating conditions, the useful life of a filter is approximately 4 to 6 months (at the end of the heating or the cooling season).
That means that you must replace it roughly 2 to 3 times a year, depending of where the furnace is placed. In fact, it is very simple to determine if a
filter needs to be replaced; you only have to proceed to a visual inspection and evaluate if the amount of dirt and dust can affect its good performance.

Conditions, exclusions and disclaimer of liability
This warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all other representations and warranties (except of title), expressed or implied, and Stelpro expressly dis-
claims and excludes any implied warranty of merchantability or implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose.
Stelpro’s liability with respect to products is limited as provided above. Stelpro shall not be subject to any other obligations or liabilities whatsoever,
whether based on contract, tort or other theories of law, with respect to goods or services furnished by it, or any undertakings, acts or omissions
relating thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Stelpro expressly disclaims any liability for property or personal injury damages,
penalties, special or punitive damages, damages for lost profits, loss of use of equipment, cost of capital, cost of substitute products, facilities or
services, shutdowns, slowdowns, or for other types of economic loss or for claims of a dealer’s customers or any third party for such damages.
Stelpro specifically disclaims all consequential, incidental and contingent damages whatsoever.
This warranty does not cover any damages or failures resulting from: 1) a faulty installation or improper storage; 2) an abusive or abnormal use, lack
of maintenance, improper maintenance (other than that prescribed by Stelpro) or a use other than that for which the unit was designed; 3) a natural
disaster or an event out of Stelpro’s control, including, but not limited to, hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, terrorist attacks, wars, overvoltage,
flooding, water damages, etc. This warranty does not cover any accidental or intentional losses or damages, nor does it cover damages caused by
negligence of the user or owner of the product. Moreover, it does not cover the cost of disconnection, transport, and installation.
The warranty is limited to the repair or the replacement of the unit or the refund of its purchase price, at the discretion of Stelpro. Any parts
replaced or repaired within the warranty period with the written authorization of Stelpro will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty

during the shipping.
Some states and provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages and some of them do not allow limita-
tions on how long an implied warranty lasts, so these exclusions or limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights
and you may have other rights which vary from state to state or from province to province.
