CLEANING THE UNIT
Your unit should be cleaned monthly to be kept running at peak performance, but depending upon the pollution or odour
levels present during initial setup, it is advisable to clean the unit more frequently (weekly or bi-weekly) until the environment
has been treated.
CLEANING THE UNIT (EXTERIOR)
Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth or use compressed air or a vacuum cleaner to remove dust. Use an alcohol-based
cleaning product to clean the surfaces of your unit.
CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
You may use clean water or compressed air to clean your Filter Assembly once it has been disassembled (see “Removing the
Filter Assembly”: page 8).
CLEANING THE IONIZATION NEEDLE
Use compressed air to blow off any dust that may accumulate near the ionization needle.
CLEANING THE PCO CELL
Using a compressed air or a vacuum cleaner, blow and/ or vacuum the dust out of the PCO Cell. Do not use any liquid to
clean the PCO Cell.
CLEANING THE PURIFICATION PLATE
Using a 50/50 mix of warm water and clear ammonia (100% white vinegar can be used in place of water and ammonia), soak
the Purification Plate for 8-10 hours but do not exceed 12 hours. Using a soft-bristle brush, scrub the wire mesh to remove
debris lodged inside the mesh. Rinse thoroughly. Allow the purification plate to dry completely before reinstalling. After
reinstalling, use a soft cloth and rubbing alcohol to clean the contacts on the interior of the unit that touch the Purification
Plate.
CLEANING THE UNIT (INTERIOR)
Using a damp cloth, a clear alcohol-based cleaner, compressed air or a vacuum cleaner, carefully clean the walls and
components inside of the unit only after completing the disassembly procedures.
