UNPACKING AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
In order to operate your LakeAir Air Cleaner properly, it is necessary to remove plastic
packing material from the media filter inside the unit. (Remove plastic packaging
material from the optional carbon after filter inside the unit if included as well).
1. Un-screw and remove the two fasteners from the top of the cabinet.
2. Lift the cover assembly from the chassis and set aside.
3. Take off the protective packing material and discard.
4. Replace the media filter (and carbon after filter if included), then the cover
assembly, making sure to include both of the fasteners. NOTE: The fasteners must be
in place and secured snugly or the unit will not operate.
Place your LakeAir Air Cleaner in a convenient area in the desired room. If you are
using the air cleaner for a specific purpose, such as smoke removal, locate the air
cleaner as close as possible to the source. (Such as near a smoking stand.) Care should
be taken to allow at least 4-6” of unobstructed space behind the unit so that it will
exhaust freely into the room. If, however, you position the unit so that the airflow is
parallel to the nearest wall, you need not allow as much free space. For best results the
unit should be elevated by placing it on a table or stand. It can also be mounted on a
wall, using our convenient wall mount option.
Plug the line cord into a standard household outlet with 120V AC 60 Hz. Caution
should be taken to use the unit only on the required voltage, as to do otherwise will void
the warranty.
OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
Position the unit and plug it into the
proper line voltage before turning it on.
1. To turn unit on, locate the threeposition rocker switch on top of the unit.
Depress the button to activate the unit
on the desired speed; High, Low, or Off
(center, flat position). Under normal
conditions, the Low position is adequate
to keep an average size room clean.
With excessive amounts of dust, smoke,
or other pollutants present, the air
cleaner should be operated on high.
2. To shut the unit off, simply push the
button to its center (flat) position and
unplug the unit from the line voltage.
Note:
Above items are available from your local LakeAir dealer.

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 replace filter
regularly. Under regular conditions the media
filter should be replaced every 3-4 months.
Under more severe conditions more frequent
replacement may be required. Note: Change
filter when noticeably dirty as it will damage
the motor if it is not changed frequently
enough. To obtain maximum efficiency from
your LakeAir Media Air Cleaner it must be
kept clean.
In addition to the grilles and filters, 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. Replace media filter and discard old filter.
5. Do not wash the carbon after filter. 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 3-4
months.
NOTE: TO INSURE PROPER OPERATION,
FILTER(S) SHOULD BE REPLACED AT
REGULAR INTERVALS. FAILURE TO
REPLACE MEDIA FILTER WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY.
Reassembly
1. Replace media filter
2. Place the carbon after filter back into the unit
if purchased
3. Replace the cover assembly and secure with
the fasteners.
4. 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.
DESCRIPTION OF PARTS
1. COVER ASSEMBLY: The vinyl covered metal cover assembly is secured to the
chassis by means of two screw fasteners on top of the unit. The cover assembly
includes the two grille sections.
2. CHASSIS: The chassis consists of the base of the Excel and Maxum and has several
components of the unit attached to it. The motor and fan, power supply, control switch,
and all internal wiring are found in the chassis.
3. OPTIONAL CARBON AFTER FILTER: The carbon after filter is optional in all
Excel and Maxum units and is used as an after filter to remove objectionable odors from
the cleaned air.
4. MEDIA FILTER: This is the workhorse of the LakeAir Air Cleaner and performs
the major function of the air cleaner by removing the particles from the air.
HOW A LAKEAIR UNIT WORKS
In business establishments or in your home, millions of airborne particles
are continually being circulated in the air you breathe. A LakeAir Media
Air Cleaner removes: smoke, dust, dirt, pollen, and other particulates like
a powerful pollution trap.
1. The internal circulating fan draws the dirty air into the system where
it first must pass through the outer grille.
2. The air then passes into the
media filter, a revolutionary filter that
has electro statically charge synthetic media.
3. The optional activated carbon filter removes odors and freshens the
air.
4. The cleaned and purified air is then returned to the room
environment.
