Replacing the HEPA Filter and Prefilter
1. To access the filters, turn the Air Cleaner
OFF
at the switch and open the top front door.
2. Carefully remove the filters to avoid spilling of
collected contaminants. Dispose of filters in a
plastic bag and discard with regular household
trash.
3. Remove the plastic from the new filters before
installing. Discard plastic safely. Take care not
to damage the filters. Hold by the filter frame
only.
4. Date the replacement filter in the space
provided.
5. Place the filters in their appropriate track with
the arrows pointing toward the fan.
6. Use genuine replacement filters only. Call the
original installer for parts.
Note:
When the filters are new, you may notice a
new smell from the system. This is normal and will
dissipate within a few hours.
Prefilter (#DM900-0855):
This must be replaced
every 3-6 months. A clean Prefilter will increase the
life of the HEPA Filter and improve airflow.
HEPA Filter (#DMH4-0400):
Replace every 2-4
years. The life of this filter depends on the amount
of contaminants in the air and the frequency in
which the Prefilter has been changed. Renovations
in the home that create wood, drywall dust or
similar contaminants will shorten the life expectancy
of the HEPA filter.
Note:
Handle the HEPA filter by the frame only.
The paper is fragile and a puncture or tear will
reduce efficiency.
