The window air inlet is dusty. How do I clean it?

Air inlets supply ventilation and should not be sealed. Cleaning depends on the mechanism; do not soak humidity sensors.

What you can do

  1. Identify the model and read its instructions. Protect the sill and remove accessible dust with a soft brush or cloth.
  2. Wipe the casing only as permitted. Keep water and solvents away from the sensor.
  3. Refit properly and leave the inlet unobstructed in its specified setting. Do not alter internal parts blindly.

How to tell whether it helped

The casing should be secure and inlet clear. Cleanliness alone does not prove the whole ventilation system works.

When to stop

Seek assessment for damage or continuing problems. Never test airflow with a flame.

How NAPREMO can help

NAPREMO can help clean or report faults. Also notify the manager about shared ventilation problems.
