Routine Maintenance
The Bionaire
®
Air Exchange System is easy to use and maintain.
It includes filters that remove dust from air that is circulated through
the system. These filters will need to be cleaned or replaced with
use. The Service Indicator bar graph on the display (6) shows when
service is needed. The Service Indicator bar graph decreases - and
when the bars disappear, the filters need to be cleaned. The average duration between cleanings is about three months.
WARNING: Do not attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void the warranty. This
unit contains no user serviceable parts. Only qualified personnel
should perform servicing—other than what is described in this manual.
About the Filters
There are three black washable filters
installed in the Air Exchange System.
Each has a single tab that locks
them into the unit. See Figure 18.
There is one two-tab filter installed
in the Air Exchange System. This
will either be a black washable filter
or a white disposable Electrostatic
filter. The Electrostatic filter removes
smaller particles from the circulating
air. See Figure 19.
PERFORMING MAINTENANCE
1. Confirm that the Service Indicator
bars (6) no longer illuminate and
the word "SERVICE" displays. This
signals that maintenance is
required.
2. Turn off and unplug the unit.
3. Remove the Air Exchange System
from the Window Sealing Frame: See
Figure 20.
• Grasp each side of the Air
Exchange System and
gently pull it toward you.
• Place the unit on a clean,
level surface.
4. Remove the front grill.
See Figure 21.
5. To remove the rear grill:
See Figure 22.
• Put the unit with the face
down on the surface.
• Place your thumb under
the opening in the rear grill
and pull up. One side of
the grill will lift up and you
will be able to slide the grill
out.
6. Remove the black filters from
openings #2, #3, and #4. Gently
wash these filters with mild soapy
water. Rinse in warm running
water. Shake off excess water
and allow to air dry completely.
See Figure 23.
7. Remove the filter from opening #1.
If it is a white electrostatic filter, discard it and replace with a fresh filter. Call 1 (800) 253-2764 to order
replacement filters. See Figur e 24.

6.Next you must customize the Plastic Extender Panels so that
the Window Sealing Frame will fit securely in your window. Each
Plastic Extender Panel is divided into segments stamped with
measurements between 26 to 38 inches. These measurements
represent the total inside measurement, in inches, of various
sized windows. See Figure 7.
CAUTION: Once you have removed segments from the Plastic
Extender Panels, the frame will only fit in windows equal to or
less than the width you have selected.
7.Use the black marker to mark the number on each Plastic
Extender Panel that is closest to (but not greater than), the
measurement you recorded in Step 1. For example, if your window is 33 inches wide, mark the number 32. See Figure 8.
8.Snap off each segment of the front of the Plastic Extender Panel
with a higher number than you
marked. If you marked 32 in
step 8, you only will remove the
segments for 38, 36 and 34 and
three segments from the back of
the Plastic Extender Panel. Use
a forward and backward motion
to remove the excess sections
along the scored indications.
See Figure 9. Remove the same
number of segments from the
back of the Plastic Extender
Panel.
9.Repeat this process on the other
Plastic Extender Panel.
10.Install the Foam Insulation
Blocks into the Plastic Extender
Panels. Note that the Foam
Insulation Blocks are divided into
vertical segments of various
widths. The foam is installed
with these segments oriented
vertically. See Figure 10A. Insert
a Foam Insulation Block into the
right Plastic Extender Panel. For
proper fit, the foam should be
only slightly wider than the
Plastic Extender Panel. If the
foam is the exact size, rotate the
foam block to utilize the half-size
foam block on the opposite
side. Reinstall the foam into the
Plastic Extender Panel. See
Figure 10B.
