How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off and unplug the unit before opening the front panel.

Steps:

  • Tighten panels: Ensure the front cover is properly latched and all screws are tight.
  • Check filters: Make sure filters are seated correctly and not vibrating.
  • Inspect blower: Look for debris (plastic, paper, insects) inside the blower wheel and remove carefully.
  • Fan mounts: Gently check if the fan motor is firmly secured. Tighten mounting screws if accessible.

If noise persists or you hear grinding/squealing, the fan motor bearings or blower wheel may need replacement.
