After replacing your True HEPA Filter, place the Pre-Filter
back in and close the Front Panel. While the unit is on, hold
the Filter Reset Button for at least 5 seconds until you hear
the beep. After the beep, the Filter Replacement Indicator

Why doesn't the fan engage? The filters are perfectly clean and it receives power

See if the motor is bound up. Move the fan blade to check for stiffness. The motor may just need a drop of oil. There is an internal fuse in the motor that you cannot change It may have opened. If you have access to a volt meter check all the wires on the power switch

When I'm in my bathroom and showering the light turns red- what does this mean- Mold?. moisture?

The simple answer is moisture. If you have a bathroom exhaust fan, be sure to run it during and after you're showering. Typically, for a bathroom exhaust fan to reduce the moisture properly, it should remain ON for at least 15 minutes after your showering is complete,

Hope this helped to answer your question.
