WARNING: never expose eyes or skin to UVC light from any source. Looking directly at the UVC light may cause permanent eye damage or blindness. 

Never operate the UV-Aire™ AirPurifying System out of the plenum. Avoid touching the glass portion of the lamp with your hands.

WARNING: Before installing or servicing a humidifier, air filter, heat system, or this unit, etc., always turn all 
power OFF and have unit unplugged. Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death. Never expose eyes 
or skin to direct UVC light from any source.
WARNING: To prevent water damage or electric shock, do not mount unit under a humidifier.
WARNING: Designed for a closed duct system. Do not mount near a supply or a return air opening.
WARNING: This product is designed for installation in the interior of weather-protected HVAC equipment or 
ductwork, or on the exterior of protected ductwork only.  For use on gas fired, oil fired, electric, split system 

heat pump forced air systems*, and the interior of weather-protected heat pump packaged units**.
*Split system heat pumps are systems where the air handler and the air conditioning compressor are 

separate units.

**Packaged units are systems where the air handler and the air conditioning compressor are built together 

and are installed outside of the building

MAGNET MOUNT INSTALLATION INSIDE PLENUM OR AIR HANDLER

1.  Choose a suitable location for the lamp in the supply plenum, return plenum, or air handler; preferably 
downstream from the air filter. For optimum “cleaning” effect on the A coil, mount the unit above or below 

the A-coil as close as possible while still illuminating the entire surface of the coil. (See Figure 1)
2.  Clean the mounting surface with degreaser and let dry.  The mounting surface must be clean and dry.

3.  Attach the Shield to the Mounting Bracket Assembly, if it is to be used, by 

bending the tabs on the shield over the Lamp Bracket notches (see Figure 2).  This 

will hold the shield in place during installation and lamp replacement.  The shield 
will be held firmly in place when the lamp is installed.
Attach the Shield in the best of four possible positions, to shield sensitive wiring 
and ductwork etc., and/or concentrate the UVC irradiation on a certain area or 
surface, and allow positioning of the mounting bracket that creates minimal 

obstruction to air flow.
4.  Attach the Lamp to the Mounting Bracket Assembly with the supplied #8-32 
wing nuts (see Dimensional Drawing).  Remove tag and alcohol swab from the 

lamp, and clean the lamp glass with the alcohol swab.   Avoid touching the cleaned 
lamp with your hands.

5.  Separate the Lamp Cable from the Ballast output cable connector, if attached.  The cables have 
mating watertight connectors to allow ease of installation and service (see Figure 3).
6.  Attach the Lamp Cable lamp connector to the lamp base, ensuring correct alignment of the rectangular pin 

arrangement.  The connector may be connected in either of two positions for which the pins line up.  Ensure 
that the lamp connector is firmly attached and that the sealing boot is pushed fully onto the lamp base.
