However, periodic cleaning/vacuuming of the appliance around the air intake and exhaust, as well as the blower is recommended. For heavy or continuous use, periodic cleaning must be done more frequently. If the heater blows alternating cold and warm air, check the blower for free movement and for debris restricting air flow. If the blower does not move freely, the unit must be turned off and the blower replaced immediately in order to prevent further damage to the unit.
