Introduction
This guide will show how to replace the air vent covers or grilles of an air conditioner. As the air conditioner is used for a long time, some dust will accumulate in the air vent covers of an air conditioner. This is when you will need to clean it or replace it.
Before beginning this guide, use a ruler to measure the length and width of the air conditioning vents. Then buy the corresponding size of the air conditioning vent cover online or in the store.
This guide is divided into two main parts. The first part is to remove the air vent and the second part is to replace it with a new one.
For safety, consider wearing a mask to prevent dust inhalation.
