For maximum efficiency, the air cleaner cells and the pre-filter
should be inspected and cleaned on a regular basis.
The Maintenance Schedule is dependent on the amount of air
passing through the filter as well as the amount of dust (pollen,
smoke, etc.) in the air. This schedule shows estimated time
periods and may be increased or decreased based on actual
conditions.

Congratulations - Your Electronic
Air Cleaner is a modern, economical
indoor pollution fighter. You should notice
a marked improvement in your indoor
atmosphere as your Electronic Air Cleaner
begins removing those tiny airborne
pollution particles, such as dust, pollen,
and smoke from the air in your home.
Home Care
Keeping your home furnishings clean is
easier when the air is clean. Most of the
dust and grime you must remove is drifting
in the air. With your Electronic Air Cleaner
operating in your home’s environmental
system, walls, windows, mirrors, draperies, and furniture stay cleaner longer. You
should have a reduction in the soiling
effect of these pollution particles on your
home furnishings.
Most staining and soiling problems are
caused by these minute particles. These
particles are so tiny that they are only
slightly affected by gravity, and can stick
as easily to a wall as to the floor. The
soiling of fabrics and the dull film on
mirrors and windows are caused by these
tiny particles. With your Electronic Air
Cleaner operating, you should not have to
clean them as often as before.
A small percentage of the larger visible
particles in your home, such as large dust
and lint, are too heavy to stay adrift long
enough to be returned to the Electronic Air
Cleaner. They settle out on horizontal
surfaces and will have to be picked up by
dusting as before, though perhaps not
quite so often. These visible dust particles
represent a small percentage of all the
drifting particles in your home.
Smoke
Smoke is comprised of submicroscopic
particles. Collectively, these particles
make up the familiar blue haze we all
know. In dense concentration the particles
form layers and can stay suspended on
the air currents for hours. These particles
will eventually settle out as a dulling film
on mirrors and windows. Your Electronic
Air Cleaner can remove nearly all of these
particles before they have a chance to soil
your home and its furnishings.
Pollen
Pollens are also drifting particles, some
which can be seen, but many are invisible
to the eye. Your Electronic Air Cleaner
removes almost all of the pollen particles
circulated to it.

Figure 1. Electronic Air Cleaner Cabinet with 1” Pre-Filter
Components
A. The cabinet is installed into the return
ductwork of your air conditioning
system.
B. The Power Door located on the front of
the Cabinet, contains the electronic
components that provide power for the
Air Cleaner and allows the removal of
the Electronic Cells and Pre-filter when
Pre-Filter
cleaning is required. The On/Off switch
and indicator light are located on the
front panel of the Power Pack. The
power cord plugs into the receptacle
below the ON/OFF switch.
C. The Pre-filter catches large dust
particles and lint before they reach the
Electronic Cells.

which electronically remove the dirt,
pollen, and smoke particles from the
air passing through them.
