YOUR NEW APRILAIRE® MODEL 2275 HIGH EFFICIENCY AIR PURIFIER

Aprilaire® has been the industry leader in whole home high efficiency air cleaning for over 40 years. We are now bringing our air cleaning expertise to
a portable unit. Your Aprilaire® Model 2275 High Efficiency Air Purifier is ideal for use in apartments or in single rooms in your home, anywhere clean
air is required. The unit effectively reduces irritating airborne particles such as dust, pollen, pet dander and tobacco smoke leaving your home’s air
purifier and fresher. It is especially useful for reducing the discomfort from allergies by trapping pollutants in its disposable media filter. This unique
high efficiency media filter has a deep fold design providing more than 10.8 square feet of filtering surface. The efficiency of the media filter will
increase as it loads with particles that are permanently trapped.

HOW IT WORKS

Your Aprilaire Model 2275 High Efficiency Air Purifier operates by
running its fan and drawing in dirty air through the bottom of the unit.
The air passes through the deep pleated high efficiency media filter
permanently trapping airborne particles. Clean air is discharged into the
room through the outlet grille on the top of the unit. See FIGURE 1.

In a 16' x 16' x 8' room (2,048 cubic ft) the unit will filter all of the air in
the room approximately four times per hour at high speed and about
three times per hour at low speed. For maximum effectiveness the unit
should operate continuously.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your Aprilaire Model 2275 High Efficiency Air Purifier comes fully
assembled and ready to operate.

1. Plug the power cord into a standard grounded outlet. This appliance
has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

2. Set the airflow speed to either High, Low or Off with the side
mounted switch.

• Do not remove the motor compartment safety screen.

• Do not place items on the unit.

• Do not use the unit as a step stool, chair or end table, etc.

Air can enter the unit from all sides so it is important to position the air
purifier away from walls or furniture which may obstruct the inlet and
reduce effectiveness.

To rid a room of undesirable airborne particles it is recommended that
high speed be used initially. Once the air is clean, low speed may be
used continuously to maintain that cleanliness. Quiet operation on low
speed is also well suited for use in the bedroom while sleeping. The unit
operates for less than 18¢/day (at 14¢ per kw/hr).
