Service advice
If your heat pump is more than one or two years old, it’s now time for a service!

Cleaning advice
Cleaning your filter
To ensure optimum performance, it is essential that the large filters in the front of the heat pump (or air return filter on a ducted system) are cleaned on a regular basis – at least every 6 weeks.
Always turn the heat pump off before cleaning the filters.
Take the filters out and wash them under a running tap. Dry the filters by pressing them between two dry towels before replacing the filters in the unit.
If you are having difficulty cleaning the filters in your system, Degree can provide a no-hassle regular filter cleaning service.
Please phone our office on (04) 5700 295 for pricing and schedule information.
