Maintenance 

Your LakeAir Air Cleaner is a high quality, precision piece of equipment designed for 
long years of satisfactory performance.  Adhere to a regular maintenance schedule and 
no problems should occur.  This unit should be checked  periodically for “dust load” 
and cleaned if found to have a large accumulation of dust and lint.  Under regular 
conditions cleaning can be done once every 1 or 2 months.  Under other more severe 
conditions more frequent cleaning may be required.  

To obtain maximum  efficiency 

from your LakeAir Electronic Air Cleaner it must be kept clean.

 

In addition to the grilles and electronic cell, care should be taken to keep the rest of the 
unit clean as well. 

Disassembly and Cleaning 

1.

Turn off unit and disconnect line cord from

 

outlet.

2.

Remove fasteners from cover assembly.

3.

Lift cover from chassis.

4.

Remove ground screw from base of chassis

 

connecting chassis to the electronic cell.  

Lift

 

cell from chassis, being careful not to bend any

 

of the plates on the electronic cell.

5.

The electronic cell may be cleaned in a

 

number of ways, but the best way is to soak 

it in

 

a container of hot water into which has been

 

dissolved a cup of dishwasher 

detergent or other

 

cleaner that is safe for aluminum.  After soaking

 

for 10-15 minutes, 

agitate the filter (cell) in the

 

solution to release some of the

particles.  Alkaline cleaners, such as our LA-99

 

heavy duty cleaning solution, may be 

used with

 

care.  Be certain to read and follow all

 

directions carefully to avoid damage 

to the

 

aluminum cell components caused by harsh

 

chemical agents.  LA-99 can be 

obtained

 

through your dealer or by calling LakeAir

 

directly.

6.

It may be necessary, if the cell is extremely

 

dirty, to repeat the soaking process or to 

take a

 

small soft brush to the plates of the cell. 

If this is done, care should be taken not to  damage the plates or the fine ion wires 
between the widely spaced plates on the ionizer section of the cells.  After soaking, 
rinse off all traces of the detergent with clean warm water and allow the excess to 
drain off.  Before replacing the cell into the chassis, make sure the cell is  
completely dry. 

7.

The electronic cell may also be washed in

 

the normal cycle of a household 

dishwasher, but

 

caution should be taken to avoid damage to the

 

closely spaced plates 

of the unit.

8.

Do not wash the carbon afterfilter.  This

 

filter should be brushed or cleaned with a

 

vacuum cleaner if any dust is present.  This

 

filter should also be replaced when there is 

an

 

indication that it is no longer absorbing odors.

 

Normal replacement is 

approximately every 4-6

 

months. 

NOTE:  TO INSURE PROPER OPERATION, FILTERS SHOULD BE 
CLEANED AT REGULAR INTERVALS. FAILURE TO CLEAN ELECTRONIC 
FILTER WILL    VOID WARRANTY. 

Reassembly 

1.

Place the dry electronic filter (cell) back on

 

the chassis, making sure the wider 

spaced plates

 

(ionizer section) face the outside of the unit.

 

Also make sure the 

handle is at the top of the

 

unit.

2.

Insert the ground screw in the proper

 

location and tighten.

3.

Place the carbon afterfilter back into the unit.

4.

Replace the cover assembly and secure with

 

the fasteners.

5.

Before plugging the unit in, make sure the

 

power button is in the 

Off 

position.  

Plug in the

 

line cord and turn the unit on to the 

High

 or

 

Low

 position.  If arcing 

occurs, turn the unit off

 

until the electronic filter cell has been dried

 

completely.
