Maintenance…

greatly. Inspect the installation area regularly removing and twigs, dirt or
particulate matter from impeding or building up around the unit or the output
grill area. The units may be cleaned using very mild detergents like
dishwashing liquid if desired. A hose with clean water may also be used but
please avoid using high pressure or forcing water into the grill or acoustic ports.
