Operational Instructions
Your MySpace
TM
is ideal for small/medium area air treatment, such as work areas,
office spaces, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. We recommend a treatment area of up to 65m
2
or 700ft2 assuming 2.5m (8ft) ceiling with an air exchange of 3-6 times per hour,
although this will vary depending on demand and conditions of the treatment area.
This device will provide a constant stream of hydroxyls to treat air and surfaces.
The hydroxyls generated by the OHAir
MySpace
TM
will destroy bacteria, viruses,
mould, allergens and odor from the air. Surfaces in the operating area will also be
treated, reducing or eliminating these contaminants.
NOTE: Your MySpace
TM
is designed to protect you and your environment.
If the sensors detect excessive moisture or other unsafe conditions, it will automatically shutdown until the condition is no longer present.

Internal Cooling Fan
The internal cooling fan is automatically controlled by the temperature of the drive
circuit. It may come on and off during operation of the device and can continue to run
for a couple of minutes after the main unit has been turned off.
Caring for your MySpace
CAUTION: Unplug the device from the mains before performing any cleaning
activities. Do not allow any excess water to enter the device or to come into contact
with the internal components. Do not use commercial surface cleaners.
The exterior surface of your MySpace
TM
can be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened
with a dilute solution of dishwashing detergent and water.
It is recommended to remove and wash the air filter
monthly, more regularly if being used in a dusty area, by
removing the cover as below, extracting the air filter and
rinsing under the tap to remove large contaminants. Once
cleaned, it needs to be thoroughly air dried before reinsertion.
It is recommended to clean the internal chamber and the
optic assembly (HGUTM) quarterly, more regularly if being
used in a dusty area, to maintain its peak efficiency to
eliminate odors, bacteria, viruses and other volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) in the air and on surfaces. If the
HGU
TM
is in continuous operation, it is recommended to
replace the HGU
TM
annually with a new HGU
TM
purchasable
via the website. Every year when the HGU
TM
needs replace-
ment, it will display “driver expired” on the main screen.

Recommended Use and Example
Your MySpace
TM
unit is recommended for a treatment area of up to 65m2 or 700ft
2
assuming 2.5m (8ft) ceiling with an air exchange of 3-6 times per hour. This device is
recommended for the following areas and more:
KITCHEN

BATHROOMS
Your MySpace helps in removing odors and prevents mo ld growing on the walls
through moisture present and water related activities. It also eliminates any bacteria
and viruses present on the bathroom surfaces.
Applications of your MySpace
TM
are almost unlimited from offices and classrooms to
indoor smoking areas and bedrooms. Larger spaces with high demand can also be
treated with multiple units.

Flush Mount
Ceiling Mount
Treating a Large Area with Low Demand
A large area with low use and low chemical/odor load can be treated with the
MySpace
TM
fan settings set on high and with the use of an external fan to distribute
the treated air.
Treating Cooking Area in the Kitchen
Kitchen surfaces that are vulnerable to mold build up and damaged surfaces due to
daily cooking activities can be treated with MySpace
TM
with fan settings set on high
and the unit placed 0.5m (20”) away from the stove. It is recommended that
MySpace
TM
should have the air blowing across the stove at a height of about 0.5m
(20”). This is so the hydroxyls can effectively treat the area.
It is recommended that your MySpace
TM
runs continuously whether cooking or not
to prevent buildup of mold and oil on kitchen surfaces. When cooking, hydroxyls
break down the steam/smoke and contaminants present within the steam/smoke.
When not cooking, hydroxyls break down the grease, mold, bacteria and viruses
already present on the kitchen surfaces. Therefore, your MySpace
TM
will be working
for you round the clock to keep your kitchen safe and healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are hydroxyls?
Hydroxyls (HO•) are naturally occurring radicals. They are created in our atmosphere when the
sun's ultraviolet rays react with water vapor in the air. Hydroxyls are an important agent that
scrub and cleanse our planet's environment. OHAir
Hydroxyl Generators replicate this
naturally occuring process and bring it indoors.
How do hydroxyls clean surfaces and hard to reach places?
Once the hydroxyls are created, they are sent to 'seek and destroy' odor molecules, bacteria,
viruses, mold, VOCs and other chemicals.
This system does not require all of the contaminants within a room to pass through the
processing chamber. Outside the unit the hydroxyls immediately begin a cascade reaction in
the air, thus creating even more hydroxyls. The cascade of hydroxyls quickly disperses
throughout the air and penetrates surfaces and objects and reach places that otherwise can’t
be reached. Other technologies only clean or filter the air that passes through the unit (a small
percentage of the air in a room).
How does it kill mold?
As well as directly destroying spores, the OHAir® system treats infected areas by cutting off the
food source for mold. As a result, there is nothing for mold to feed on since the very bacteria
and micro-organisms that it relies on to survive have been killed off. Only this way can mold
be rendered inert.
Are hydroxyl generators safe to run in occupied areas?

Phone: 1 866 711 6196
Email: info@oh-air.com
Hydroxyls generators developed by OHAir are safe to run (and have been independently
tested) in occupied areas. Unlike ozone and harsh chemicals, hydroxyls are completely safe for
people, pets and plants. They will not damage rubber, plastic, leather, vinyl, electronics or
other sensitive materials. They will also not bleach or discolor items - wet or dry.
How long does it take to work?
Hydroxyls are very fast acting and do their work through a chemical reaction. There needs to
be a high enough concentration - If there is no noticeable reduction in odor, a second or
stronger unit may be required. Results are often noticed within the first few minutes of operation, with heavy odors being permanently eliminated after 3 – 4 days.
Do
hydroxyls smell?
Hydroxyls themselves don’t have any smell. When hydroxyls interact with the environment
that may create some odor. If the odor is too strong, turn the fan speed on your MySpace to
lower settings. The odor may be stronger initially as a room is first treated.
The odor/mold I was treating is gone, will it come back?
Air and Surfaces will be fully treated. If the cause (urine, feces, smoke, cleaning agents, mold,
etc.) is within/embedded in the material, the unit will need to be run until the source is
exhausted or removed. You can also damp (wet) down the surface and re-treat to improve
results.
