IntroductionIntroduction
The Lennox Box Media Air Cleaner (BMAC) is shipped with
either a 3” or 5” MERV 8 media air filter depending on the
model. The 5” filter must be replaced every year and the 3”
filter must be replaced every 6 months to ensure maximum
efficiency of both the air filter and air handler. Applications with
higher dust levels may require more frequent replacement.
Upgrade kits are available for BMAC-14CE and BMAC-20CE
models to replace media filters with electronic air cleaner
components.
Please read instructions before installing and using the Healthy
Climate® Box Media Air Cleaner.

Unfiltered air flows through the return air ducts and into the
BMAC cabinet. As the air flows across the MERV 8 filter, it
captures dust mites, pollen, mold spores, pet dander and
other contaminants that are 0.3 microns or larger.
The filtered and conditioned air is distributed throughout the
living space through the supply air ducts.

inside the cabinet (see Fig 2A). These rails can be removed
to allow the cabinet to accomodate a 5” filter media

the rails. The 5” filter media will slide into the cabinet.
The air filter cabinet is installed in the existing return air duct
system and houses either the supplied filter media on “C”
models or the upgrade components (electronic air cleaner
cells) on the “CE” models.
