OPTIONAL ECOHELP FILTER

Changing the UV Lamp

The UV lamp should be changed when REPLACE LAMP appears 
on the display. To change the lamp follow the instructions on 
pages 10 - 13.

Changing the fuse: 

The fuse may be accessed by 
unplugging the cord from the back 
of the unit and gently pulling the 
fuse holder straight out. 

PLACEMENT OF UNIT

Place the unit as high 
as possible to insure 
complete purification. (On 
top of a bookshelf, high 
cabinet, etc.)
Suggested locations, listed 
in the order of preference:
1.  Nearest the source of the 

worst pollution.

2.   Near a cold-air return 

to thoroughly circulate 
clean air throughout the 
area.

3.  In the area most 

heavily used to achieve 
maximum benefit.

Note: 

•  The rear of the unit should always have at least one inch of 

open area to allow unrestricted airflow.  

• Be sure the power cord is not accessible to small children to 

prevent injury.

For removal of additional dust and allergens, your Fresh Air by 
EcoQuest will accommodate an optional EcoHelp filter. The 
EcoHelp filter replaces the standard lint screen and is completely 
covered when the unit is properly assembled. See page 13 for filter 
installation instructions. Contact your EcoQuest Dealer to order 
an EcoHelp filter.

100 & 110 volt models - use 1.6

 

Amp slow blow fuse. 

220/240 volt models - use 1.0 Amp slow blow fuse.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Periodic maintenance is required to insure that your Fresh Air 
by EcoQuest operates properly. The unit will display a PERFORM 
CLEANING reminder when it is time to perform regular 
maintenance. If you are operating your unit in a severely polluted 
environment, cleaning of the unit, purifier plate, and RCI

 Target 

should be done more frequently. Shown here are basic procedures 
that should be carried out to keep your unit running at top 
performance.
CAUTION: Unplug the unit before performing any maintenance 
procedures.

Cleaning the Case:

Wipe the unit with a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not use 
chemicals or solvents. Vacuum the front and rear grills periodically 
to remove any lint buildup. 

Cleaning the RCI

 Target: 

Remove the RCI Target and rinse with warm water. Allow to dry 
completely before reinstalling.

Rear lint-screen cleaning: 

You have two options to clean the lint screen:
1.  When visibly dirty, simply remove the rear lint screen from the 

unit (see pages 10 - 13) and, with a hand-held vacuum, remove 
the heavy particulate. This method will extend the life of the 
filter.   

2.  When visibly dirty, remove the rear lint screen from the unit 

(see pages 10 - 13) and wash in hot water, brushing gently with 
a toothbrush to remove particulate. Allow to dry prior to re-
installing. Note: do not use soap - it will damage the carbon 
material in the lint screen. If an EcoHelp filter has been installed, 
replace if necessary - do not wash.

Rear lint-screen replacement: 

Contact your EcoQuest Dealer for replacement lint screens.

Purifier Plate:

Remove the rear filter (see pages 10 - 13). Carefully remove the  
purifier plate from the card cage by grasping the middle of the edge 
nearest to you, and slowly pull it straight out.

If you are in an environment where there are fats, oils or grease, such 
as in a kitchen

, start with cleaning with denatured alcohol  and a soft 

bristle brush. This will cut the grease without leaving a residue.

For all applications

 - Clean with ammonia to remove contaminates.  

Put the plate(s) into a shallow dish and pour enough ammonia 
into the dish to just cover plate(s).  Allow the plate(s) to soak for 
10-20 minutes.  Remove and scrub with a soft bristle brush. Rinse 
thoroughly.  

Let air dry

 for 24 hours or use a blow dryer to 

dry 

thoroughly

.

The unit will display a REPLACE PLATE message if the purification 
plate needs to be replaced.
