# Maintenance Guidelines for Optimal Performance of Your Unit
## This article outlines the maintenance requirements for the unit to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
### Soft Shell Chambers (e.g., Pro90, Standard36, etc.)
- **Filter Replacement:** Every 200 hours for compressor and concentrator filters.
- **Surface Cleaning:** Wipe chamber exterior and interior after each use with antibacterial, non-abrasive cloths. Avoid bleach or alcohol-based cleaners that can degrade TPU/PVC materials.
- **Zipper Care:** Apply lubricant monthly to the curved zipper track to prevent resistance or wear.
- **Noise Troubleshooting:** If airflow is loud, check that the silencer is fully connected.
- **Storage:** Store in a dry, climate-controlled room. Avoid folding while damp.
### Hard Shell Chambers (e.g., Elite, Ultra)
- **Air System Filters:** Same 200-hour filter change intervals apply. May have more complex filtration—refer to model-specific documentation.
- **Interior Surfaces:** Use medical-grade disinfectant wipes on the metal or acrylic interior between users.
- **Touch Panels / Electronics:** Use microfiber cloths for control screens and hardwired electronics. Avoid moisture buildup near electronics.
- **Door Seals:** Inspect silicone or rubber gaskets monthly for cracking or wear. Apply seal lubricant if included.
- **Cooling and Ventilation:** Ensure vents around electronics and compressors are unobstructed.
- **Annual Professional Inspection (Recommended):** Especially for clinical setups or units running at 2.0 ATA.
Consistent maintenance—especially **cleaning after each use and timely filter replacement**—is key to preserving the performance, safety, and lifespan of your hyperbaric chamber.
