board, non-paper air filters, drainage trays, and plastic insulation on wire. T o
avoid damaging these materials, mount your BreatheCLEAN Air Purifier at least
three feet away from the materials that could break down. If you need to mount
the BreatheCLEAN unit in direct line of sight of these materials, you should use
aluminum foil, aluminum tape or sheet metal to shield the materials from the
ultraviolet light.

Do NOT touch the ultraviolet bulbs with your hands. The oils on your
skin will create hot spots and can reduce the life of the bulbs.
