SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Read and follow instructions carefully. Follow all
local electrical codes during installation. All wiring
must conform to local and national electrical codes.
Improper wiring or installation may damage the Air
Cleaner.
Understand the signal words
WARNING
and
CAUTION
which are present in the Owner’s
Manual.
WARNING
and
CAUTION
signify a
hazard which could result in property damage,
personal injury or death.
Only a heating/air conditioning installer or
qualified service person should install, repair,
or service your Whole-House HEPA, Ultraviolet
Light & Photo Catalytic Air Cleaner.
Homeowners or untrained personnel can
perform the basic maintenance functions of
replacing the filters or lamps.
When working on air cleaning equipment,
observe precautions in the Owner’s Manual,
labels attached to the unit, and other safety
precautions that may apply. Follow all safety
codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
WHAT THE HEPA, ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT &
PHOTO CATALYTIC AIR CLEANER DOES
The Whole-House HEPA, Ultraviolet Light & Photo
Catalytic Air Cleaner has been designed to remove
particulate such as atmospheric and household
dust, coal dust, insecticide dust, mites, pollen, mold
spores, fungi, bacteria, viruses, pet dander, wood
smoke, cooking smoke and grease, tobacco smoke
and more.
The two non-ozone producing, high output
Ultraviolet lamps provide germicidal sterilization for
bacteria, viruses, mold and fungi and provide
photons to the CinQuartz™ Media (Photo Catalytic
Oxidation Filter) to reduce odors and Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOC’s).
A Final Filter containing a mixture of Carbon and
Potassium Permanganate further reduces odors,
light and non-organic gases.
BENEFITS
Helps provide relief from allergies, asthma, and
other respiratory illness.
Kills or inhibits bacteria, viruses, mold, fungi
and microbial growth.
Eliminates or reduces odors and gases emitted
from air fresheners, carpets, construction
materials, glues, household cleaners, paints,
varnishes, personal care products, press board
furniture and lots more.
Helps reduce housekeeping time and
redecorating costs.
Provides a healthier, more comfortable
environment, year-round.
HOW IT WORKS
Millions of airborne pollutants are carried through
the return air ducts of the heating/cooling system.
The Air Cleaner has been designed to be installed
on the return air duct. A portion of this return air is
by-passed through an opening on the rear or top of
the unit and passes through a 5-stage filtration
system.
The air passes through a pleated Carbon Prefilter
to remove lint, large particles and heavy weight
gases to extend the life of the HEPA and PCO
filter.
Smaller particles then pass through a long-life,
99.97% HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air)
Media Filter which captures particles 0.3 micron
(1/84,000 of an inch) and larger. The filter becomes
more efficient as it gets dirtier with time. This HEPA
filter has more than 40 ft² of collection surface
area.
The clean air passes through a reflection chamber
where two High Output Ultraviolet (C band)
Germicidal Lamps emit powerful UVC light rays
which are designed to kill or inhibit bacteria,
viruses, mold, fungi and microbial growth. These
are non-ozone producing lamps. The Ultraviolet
Light is also used to activate the unique
CinQuartz™ Media located below the UV lamps.
The CinQuartz™ Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO)
Filter is a Quartz media coated with nanoparticles
of Titanium Dioxide (TiO
2
). The combined action of
the UV light and the TiO
2
decomposes organic
materials into basic molecules such as H
2
O and
CO
2
and reduces odors and VOC’s as a result.
Air then passes through a Final Filter containing a
mixture of Carbon and Potassium Permanganate
further reducing odors and light gases.
Clean air is discharged back into the return air
duct.
WARNING
Before beginning any installation or modification, be
certain that the main line electrical disconnect switch
for the system is in the
OFF
position. Failure to do this
may cause electric shock or injury. Tag disconnect
switch with a suitable warning label.
WARNING
This unit is designed to emit powerful ultraviolet
radiation to sterilize microorganisms. It is dangerous to
come in contact with or look at the light from this unit.
Always turn the Air Cleaner
OFF
and
UNPLUG
the unit
before opening panels or the filter access door.
