Trane CleanEffects™ is unlike anything else out there. So is the air it produces.
READ ONLY
Today’s air needs tomorrow’s
air cleaning system.
There may be more in your home than you
know. In fact, the air inside your home can
be up to 5 times more polluted than the
air outside. Because while today’s betterinsulated homes do a great job of keeping
out the elements, they also hold in airborne
particles that can aggravate breathing
difficulties.
• Nearly 72 trillion particles enter the
average home every day, and remain
in the air.
• Most homes generate around 40 pounds
of dust every year for every 1500 square
feet of space. Dust that remains trapped
inside.
• One ounce of dust can contain up to
40,000 dust mites, one of the most
common household allergens.
Technologically advanced cleaning.
Amazingly enhanced air.
Introducing Trane CleanEffects,™ the patented
whole-house air filtration from a recognized industry
leader. Designed from the ground up to clean the
air like nothing before, CleanEffects makes the
air in your home feel cleaner and fresher than you
thought possible. As an accessory to your matched
Trane system, CleanEffects:
• Removes up to an incredible 99.98%
of allergens from filtered air.
• Traps particles as small as .1
micron in size.
• Up to 100 times more effective
than a standard 1” filter.
• Can reduce your need to dust
by up to 50% .
• Has had its performance verified by
leading experts at the Harvard
School of Public Health.

There are several ways to measure the effectiveness
of an air filtration system. The two you’ll most likely
see are
Value, and
MERV, or Minimum Efficiency Reporting
CADR, or Clean Air Delivery Rate.
MERV is designed for systems with media-based
filters, and involves loading the filter with particles
until its airflow is greatly reduced. Unfortunately,
this method only measures one aspect of air
filtration‚ particle capture efficiency. Since Trane

only the efficiency with which particles are removed
from filtered air, but also the rate at which clean
air is delivered to your living space. This is a
more accurate representation of an air cleaner’s
performance because it measures the end
benefit to you.
And it’s quiet, too.
Many electronic air cleaners emit an unpleasant
buzz, similar to a bug zapper, while operating. Not
CleanEffects. Its patented technology makes it as
quiet as it is effective.
Clean Air Delivery Rate measures
the effectiveness of air cleaning
appliances. The higher the clean
air delivery rate, the more effective
the unit is at cleaning the room
or home of airborne particles and
allergens.

Clean air delivery rate (efficiency times airflow rate) is recognized by the Federal Trade
Commission (FTC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a fair and objective
measure of various air cleaner technologies. Ratings reflect cubic feet per minute of clean
air delivered for a typical 3-ton heating and cooling system: the higher the value, the more
effective the air cleaner.

The facts about ozone.
When evaluating any sort of
electronic air cleaning system,
there is often a concern about
ozone levels, especially when dealing
with so-called “ionizing” air cleaners. Your
safety and health are of utmost concern to Trane,
which is why we’ve designed CleanEffects to fall
well below the emissions standards the FDA sets,
even for medical devices.

Cleaner air feels better. In your lungs, on your
skin, all around you. A Trane CleanEffects
uses patented, industry-leading technology
to remove up to 99.98% of particles down
to .1 micron from the air it filters, more than
any other air filtration system on the market.

CleanEffects™ filtration can bring welcome

Many common allergens are small enough
to bypass the body’s natural defenses
and embed deep in the lungs, aggravating
breathing ailments. Since CleanEffects
filters down to .1 micron, or 100
times smaller than a human hair, it
is extremely effective at removing
spores, mold, pollen, pet dander,
dirt and dust, preventing them from
entering your air, and your lungs.

cleaner bag. Small holes let air pass through
but not particles. Unfortunately, the more dirt
these systems collect, the more clogged they
become. This creates a bottleneck that reduces
clean air output, robs system performance and
reduces system life.
Trane CleanEffects™
uses a powerful,
patented ifD corona
field to charge
incoming air, causing
particles to adhere to
the CleanEffects collection cells as air passes
through. Since your furnace or air handler isn’t
struggling to work against a clogged filter,
clean air flows freely. No other filtration system
can compare.
Even the Trane CleanEffects collection element
is ground-breaking.
Each layer is only
0.08 inches apart,
with alternating
charges, which makes
for a stronger, more
effective collection field. What’s more, the
Trane CleanEffects element has eight times
the collection surface of a standard electronic
air cleaner, so it’s vastly more efficient at
providing clean air throughout your home.

Unmatched air quality from a Trane matched system.

Everything works together to keep you comfortable.
When you install a Trane matched system,
you’re stepping up to a new level of
performance. In a matched system, every
component is designed to work together
to deliver maximum comfort and efficiency
from every energy dollar. Make your air
clean, perfectly heated and cooled and
perfectly humidified with a perfectly
balanced Trane matched system.
Variable-speed, continuous clean.
If your matched Trane system includes a
variable-speed blower motor, CleanEffects
gently circulate clean air at low speed 24 hours a
day, filling your home with a continuous supply of
clean air while using less energy than a single
light bulb.
Humidifiers
Improperly humidified air can increase the spread
of dust mites, one of the most common allergens.
It can also dry out your skin and furnishings
and create static electricity. A Trane humidifier
maintains proper moisture levels in the air for
your comfort, while helping to reduce dust
mites in your home.

Easy to appreciate, simple to clean.
Maintaining your CleanEffects™ is as simple as sliding
out the reusable pre-filter and collection cells and
vacuuming them thoroughly. The pre-filter should
be vacuumed each month or two. And the collection
cells should be cleaned every 6 to 9 months,
depending on the indoor air quality in your home.
If you wish, you may have a service contract with your
dealer to perform the cleaning procedures for you.
