NOTE: Media pads generally last 3-5 months, depending on household conditions. In a new installation, however, it is
suggested that the media pad be inspected and/or replaced after one month of operation due to the initial cleanup of
contaminants. Only genuine EnviroAire IAQ replacement media pads should be used with your air cleaner. Failure to do so
could cause damage to the air cleaner, alter air cleaner performance, and/or void your warranty.
