Unlatch the top section and tip it back on its hinge so the debris falls into the bag from the upper
section of the TurboJet and its first stage filter. Follow all local regulations on disposing of material
removed from the ducts. In critical areas, such as hospitals, it is required to cover the inlet with 6-mil
plastic when the job is completed to prevent the collected debris from escaping and contaminating the
area while it is removed from the building to be emptied in a non- critical area where the trash bag can
be disposed of safely. The first stage filter can be put into the same trash bag for disposal.
2. When necessary, wash the 2nd stage filters with a garden hose and nozzle at full force. First rinse in
the opposite direction of the airflow, then rinse both sides. Occasionally, a degreaser such as Air-Care
Zap electrostatic filter cleaner may be required to restore this filter to its’ peak performance. Let the
filter air dry before reinstalling into the unit.
Note: When there is not sufficient time to allow filters to dry
before using the TurboJet, simply dry vacuum the loose debris off
of the filters’ surfaces or use compressed air in an appropriate
outdoor area.
When the control panel pressure gauge reads 4 1/4” or more and
the 1st and 2nd stage filters are clean, the 3rd stage HEPA filter
should be replaced (approximately once or
twice per year, if other filters are cleaned regularly). There is no
safe way to clean the HEPA filter without a risk of damaging it.
NOTE: Never wash the Pleated or HEPA filter with water.
HEPA Replacement
1. Open the upper section of the TurboJet to gain access to the filters. The first and second stage filters
will be held in the upper section of the TurboMax.
2. Use care when removing the 3rd stage HEPA filter mounted in the bottom half of the cabinet. When
the airflow through the inlet is noticeably reduced and the 1st & 2nd stage filters are clean, it is time to
replace the 3rd stage HEPA filter.
NOTE: Applying compressed air pressure or using a vacuum brush on filter surface will damage
the filter. If you have any questions, please call Air-Care at 800-322-9919
