How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn OFF power to the indoor unit before removing access panels to check or replace filters.
- Inspect filter: Locate the air filter in the Ruud furnace/air handler or return grille. Remove and inspect for dirt and blockage. Replace if dirty with the correct size and type.
- Reset reminder: In the thermostat menu, navigate to filter or maintenance reminders and reset the timer after replacing the filter.
- Adjust interval: If reminders occur too frequently or not often enough, adjust the runtime or calendar interval to match your home's needs and filter type.
