Congratulations on your choice of the Kenmore HEPA Air Cleaning system. HEPA is an acronym for High Efficiency Particulate Air, which describes a fibrous media designed to remove 99.97% of particulates of 0.3 microns or larger in size. A micron is one millionth of a meter. For example, a human hair is approximately.100 microns in diameter, while pollen and plant spores are greater than 1 micron in diameter. Air p0[lution in all forms is detrimental to your health. Air pollution can and

does exist in our homes. The Kenmore HEPAA_r Cleaner has been designed to thoroughly dean the 2ir which WE CAN CONTROL, the air within our homes. With your Kenmore HEPA Air Cleaning system, you can pro-vide clean and healthy air to your family, air that is free of smoke, dust, pollen and other pollutants.

Dirty, dusty, smoke and pollen ladened air is forced through ourthree stage filtering system and then passes through our IONIZER before it leaves the HEPA Air Cleaning System:

Stage 1 - Pre..Filter.- Traps large particles like dust and pet hairs.

Stage 2-Activated Carbon Filtration layer- Remove..4 :-. odors and harmful gases.

Stage 3 .. HEPA Filter- The Hepa FilterwiI1 help remove the pollen and other airborne particulates that affect people who suffer with allergies and upper respiratory problems.

Electronic IONIZER- Prior to exiting the air cleaning system, the air is exposed to an IONIZER which places a negative charge on any remaining particulate. The negative charge given to these particulates enables them to be trapped by the system when they pass through again. A further benefit,of the IONIZER is that it imparts to indoor air a sense of outdoor air"freshness".

This HEPA filter helps remove the pollen and other airborne particulates that affect people who suffer with " allergies and upper respiratory problems.
