INTRODUCTION
Congratulations for selecting the Perfect Air Purifier for your home
comfort system! The Perfect Air Purifier is proven to remove and
kill airborne germs and allergens, including viruses, bacteria, and
mold spores. The Perfect Air Purifier is a cornerstone of Bryant
Healthy Home Solutions for providing healthier, cleaner air in your
home.
HOW IT WORKS
The Perfect Air Purifier provides extremely high filtration
performance while killing captured contaminants, including
viruses, bacteria, and mold spores. The purifier treats the entire
air--stream through a state of the art, three--stage process.
In stage one, the particles are electrically charged by a
precision--point ionization array as they enter the purifier.
In stage two, the charged particles are electrically attracted to the air
purification cartridge, which is located within an electric field.
In stage three, captured particles are killed by electrical current
flow and ion bombardment.
The purifier is CSA certified for shock and electrical fire hazard
only.
La purifier certification CSA vise uniquement les risques de choc
electrique et.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, maintenance,
or use can cause explosion, fire, electrical shock, or other
conditions which may cause death, personal injury or property
damage. Consult a qualified installer, service agency or your
distributor or branch for information or assistance. The qualified
installer or agency must use factory--authorized kits or accessories
when modifying this product. Refer to the individual instructions
packaged with the kits or accessories when installing.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses, protective clothing,
and work gloves. Have a fire extinguisher available. Read these
instructions thoroughly and follow all warnings and cautions
included in literature and attached to the unit. Consult local
building codes and the current edition of the National Electrical
Code (NEC) NFPA 70.
In Canada, refer to the current editions of the Canadian Electrical
Code CSA C22.1.
Recognize safety information. When you see this symbol
the unit and in instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for
personal injury. Understand the signal words DANGER,
WARNING,andCAUTION. These words are used with the
safety--alert symbol. DANGER identifies the most serious hazards,
which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING
signifies hazards, which could result in personal injury or death.
CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices, which may result
in minor personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE
is used to highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced
installation, reliability, or operation.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
!
The Perfect Air Purifier is designed for use in the return air duct of
a forced air heating, cooling, and ventilation system. Models
GAPAAXBB1625 and GAPAAXBB2025 are specifically
designed for use in systems with a forced air gas furnace.
Air Conditioning
The purifier should be installed in a system so that all the return air
is circulated through the air purifier. It should be located upstream
of both the furnace and the air conditioning evaporator coil. This
will help keep the furnace and evaporator coil clean and prevent
condensation from forming within the purifier.
Humidifiers
An evaporative humidifier can be mounted upstream of the
purifier. It is best to install atomizing humidifiers downstream of
the air purifier because hard water salt deposits and water droplets
may damage air purifier. If an atomizing humidifier must be
mounted upstream of the purifier, it should be mounted as far
upstream as possible (at least 6 ft./1.8 m recommended), and a
GAPAA
standard disposable furnace filter should be mounted between the
humidifier and the air purifier to trap hard water salt deposits and
water droplets.
Ensure that the humidifier installation will not allow water or water
droplets to enter the air purifier because it may cause electrical
arcing or damage the air purifier.
NOTE: For fan coil installations, do not install the humidifier in
the fan coil access doors or cabinet.
Inspect for plugged drains and maintain humidifier drain lines on a
regular basis to avoid overflow of water into the air purifier. The
recommended inspection should be done at every change of the air
purifier cartridge (minimum, annually).
HIGH VOLTAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
This air purifier utilizes high voltage. If you notice water
running into or around the air purifier, water stains on the
purifier cartridge or on the Enhancement Module walls or
cabinet, shut off the air purifier and call your service provider.
Transitions
If the return air duct or furnace openings do not fit the purifier
cabinet openings, gradual transitions are recommended to reduce
air turbulence and maximize efficiency. No more than 45_ (about
8.5 in. per running ft.) of expansion should be used on each side of
the transition fitting.
Turning Vanes
If the purifier is installed adjacent to a 90_ duct elbow, turning
vanes should be added inside duct to improve air distribution
across the face of the air purifier.
Electrical Power
The purifier should only be powered when airflow is present. The
furnace control EAC terminals provide power only when the
furnace blower is operating. Perfect Air Purifier models
GAPAAXBB1625 and GAPAAXBB2025 are designed to be
powered from the electronic air cleaner (EAC) terminals on a
furnace electronic control. If EAC terminals are not available, an
alternative airflow sensing mechanism must be used to ensure the
purifier is only powered when airflow is present. Contact local
Bryant distributor for information on approved alternatives.

CAUTION
CUT HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in personal injury.
Sheet metal parts may have sharp edges or burrs. Use care and
wear appropriate protective clothing and gloves when
handling parts.
Carefully remove all items from the box.
Identify Mounting Location
a. Identify a mounting orientation for the purifier in the return
air duct (see Figures 3 and 4).
b. Ensure airflow direction through the purifier matches the ar-
rows on the face of the air purifier cartridge. The purifier
can be rotated 180_ to accommodate the cabinet orientation.
NOTE:
Mounting on this side
requires the cabinet
to be rotated 180° for
correct air flow.

c. The location of the purifier should be readily accessible.
Enough room should be provided for periodic replacement
of the air purifier cartridges.

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK AND UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Only a trained, experienced service person should install the
purifier. A thorough check of the unit installation should be
completed before unit operation. Before performing
installation, service or maintenance operations on unit, turn off
all power to unit. Tag disconnect switch with lockout tag.
