Filters must be changed when they become saturated. Wear protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection during set up, application, and clean up. It is critical to avoid any conditions that may cause a fire. Avoid open flames, pilot lights, sparks, heating elements, cigarettes, or all possible sources of ignition.
