Washing Cells at the Car Wash
Use the hand sprayer at a coin-operated do-it-yourself car wash to
clean the cells. Hold the nozzle at least two feet away from the unit to
avoid damage (such as broken ionizer wires or bent collector plates)
from the high pressure stream of water. Follow the same sequence of
wash and rinse as recommended for cars. However, do not wax the
cells. Be sure to rinse until the water draining from the cells no longer
feels slippery.
Reinstalling the Cells and Prefilters
1.
Inspect the cells for broken ionizer wires and bent collector plates.
Repair as necessary or take to a Honeywell Authorized Air Cleaner
Repair Station.
2.
Slide the prefilters into the upstream prefilter guides.
3.
Slide in the air cleaner cells so the airflow arrow points downstream
and the handles faces outward.
4.
Firmly close the access door.
5.
Wait two to three hours until the cells are dry and then turn
on the air cleaner. If the cells and prefilters are wet, the
neon light may not come on and you may hear arcing.
Replacing Media Postfilters
To maximize the filtration efficiency of the media postfilters,
replace them every six months. Replacement filters are
available in the same size and configuration as the original
unit. Contact your local Honeywell distributor to purchase
replacement filters. Install the replacement filters exactly as the
filters provided with the equipment. Use the Service Reminder
Schedule at the end of this document to help you establish and
maintain a regular replacement schedule. Keep your Service
Reminder Schedule in a convenient location.
Replacing Ionizer Wires
Broken or bent ionizer wires can cause an electrical short to
ground, often resulting in visible arcing or sparking. Do not
use cells until broken wires are removed. Cells can be used
temporarily with one wire missing, but replace the wire as soon
as possible.
Replacement wires are supplied cut to length with eyelets on
both ends for easy installation. See Parts and Accessories Not
Illustrated section. To install:
