Choose an appropriate location for the unit.
•
Within an area of the house where the ambiant temperature is between 10°C
(50°F) and 65°C (149°F) (basement, furnace room, closet, etc.).
•
So as to provide easy access to the interior of the unit, for filter maintenance.
•
Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible
duct to and from the unit (not necessary for HEPA 1000 and HF 1.0 units).
•
Away from hot chimneys and other fire hazards.
•
Allow for a power source (standard 3-prong grounding outlet).
•
Close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off.
(for HEPA 3000 and HF 3.0 units only).
