Operator Maintenance
Detergent
The detergent tank should be checked at least weekly and filled with the recommended detergent Gaylord
Formula G-510EF. Refer to page 4-8 for details and ordering information. Formula G-510EF is non-corrosive
and will not damage the aluminum plates of the ESP Cells. Caution; If a detergent other than Formula G-
510EF is used it must be of the type that will not harm aluminum.
Some Control Cabinets are equipped with a low detergent indicator. If so equipped, the Command Center
screen will display text LOW DETERGENT if the detergent tank is empty or if the detergent pump is mal
functioning and detergent is not pumping. If the detergent tank is filled with water the detergent switch will
activate as if there is no detergent. Depending upon the model of the Command Center there may be a
digital display that reads LOW DETERGENT and the text alternates from FILL TANK and CHECK PUMP.
Maintenance - Spray Odor Chemical
If the ClearAir Unit is equipped with a spray odor control system, the liquid odor control chemical tank,
located in a cabinet on the ClearAir unit must be kept filled. A red light mounted on the face of the Control
Cabinet, or Command Center, will illuminate when the chemical tank is empty. We recommend the use of
Gaylord Formula GS-710 odor control chemical. Refer to page
5-8 for
details and ordering information.

Periodic Pressure Wash or Steam Cleaning
The National Fire Protection Association Standard 96, (NFPA-96) requires all hood, ducts and fans be
inspected and cleaned, if needed, at periodic intervals based on the type of cooking. If cleaning of the
ClearAir Unit is required the cleaning company must be made aware of the following cautions:
Caution 1: Never use any caustic chemicals as they could damage the aluminum in the ESP Cells. If caustic
chemicals are to be used, the ESP Cells must be removed and cleaned separately.
Caution 2: Some commercial hood cleaning companies blow a fire retardant chemical into hood and duct
systems. Fire retardant chemicals should never be applied to any portion of the ClearAir Unit. If retardant is
applied, it must be removed.
