OPERATION

Household dust is typically an accumulation of particles in a size range of .01 micron up to 100 microns. Pollens and spores, which can aggravate allergy symptoms, are usually in the 10-100 micron size range.

The visible household dust particles, and nearly all pollen and spore particles, therefore, can be caught and permanently held, very easily, if you can get them to the air cleaner. With central high efficiency air cleaners, the blower of your heating/air conditioning system performs the air movement function.

Continuous air cleaning will be accomplished when your thermostat is set for continuous air circulation (“Fan On”). If continuous air cleaning is not required, or desired, set your thermostat to “Fan Auto”.

For those who choose periodic cleaning, (as opposed to continuous cleaning through continuous furnace blower operation), the most important period is during—and for several hours after—vacuuming your home. The vacuuming process (unless you have a central vacuum system) stirs up a large volume of dust particles which must be drawn into your air cleaner.

Many of the dust particles generated, while vacuuming, are so heavy they “fall” out of the airstream before they can be drawn out of your living area. This is why it is important to do household dusting several hours after vacuuming. Normally once the heavy particles “fall out”, they are only reintroduced to the air by vacuuming, or similarly vigorous activity.

Where allergy symptoms, which are aggravated by pollens and spores, are a concern, continuous cleaning is strongly encouraged.

To recap, when removing household dust is the major benefit you are seeking, you should operate your air cleaner during and following periods when dust is being generated or “stirred up”. For pollens and spores which aggravate an allergy condition, your cleaner must be operated continuously when these pollutants are in the environment. The air cleaner can only be effective when air containing the contaminants is drawn through the filtering media.

MAINTENANCE

The only maintenance required is the periodic replacement of the disposable Aprilaire® Filtering Media which you can do in a few minutes. The frequency of replacement will vary with operation time, the number of particles generated in the home and is affected by: number of people and their activities, the amount of carpeting, pets, size of home, number of smokers, the pollution level of the area.

We recommend replacing the media each year. However, if you do not run your blower continuously the media may last up to two years. Air conditioning systems larger than 3.5 tons, or heating systems larger than 130,000 BTUs per hour (1400 cfm), will require more frequent attention if operated continuously.

CHANGING THE FILTER

Replace the filtering media with genuine Aprilaire SelfSeal™ filters, available from your installing contractor. IMPORTANT: Follow the step by step directions on the filter carton to ensure that it is installed in the proper orientation – the outlet side of the filtering media is the expanded metal.

•Use Model 213 filtering media for the Model 2210 Air Cleaner.

•Use Model 413 filtering media for the Model 2410 Air Cleaner

The model number for your air cleaner can be found on the door label (see Figure 3). Record this information on your replacement record found on the following page.

Aprilaire is renowned for its innovative air quality products, and two of their standout offerings are the Aprilaire 2410 and 2210 air purifiers. Both models exemplify the company’s commitment to improving indoor air quality, making them essential additions to any home.

The Aprilaire 2410 is designed to tackle allergens and particulates effectively. One of its main features is the high-efficiency air filter, which captures up to 95% of airborne particles. This includes dust, pollen, mold spores, and pet dander, ensuring a cleaner environment for those with allergies or respiratory issues. The filter has a long lifespan, typically lasting up to a year, which reduces maintenance hassle.

In contrast, the Aprilaire 2210 is also focused on delivering unparalleled air filtration capabilities. It utilizes a robust MERV 10 filter, designed to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns. This model is particularly effective against larger particles, helping to maintain optimal air quality in your living spaces. The 2210's filter is also designed for longevity, which means less frequent replacements and lower operational costs.

Both models employ a unique self-sealing design that ensures unfiltered air does not bypass the filter, maximizing efficiency. Additionally, they feature a simple installation process, which can be completed in a matter of minutes without the need for professional help.

Another key characteristic of both the Aprilaire 2410 and 2210 is their compatibility with central heating and cooling systems. This means they can work seamlessly with existing HVAC systems, allowing for whole-home air purification. Their compact design doesn’t take up valuable space, making them convenient for homeowners.

Both units also utilize a filter indicator light that alerts users when it’s time for a replacement, ensuring optimal performance at all times. This feature minimizes guesswork and helps maintain a consistently healthy indoor environment.

In summary, the Aprilaire 2410 and 2210 air purifiers are exceptional choices for anyone looking to enhance indoor air quality. Their advanced filtration technologies, compatibility with HVAC systems, longevity, and user-friendly features make them ideal for maintaining a healthier living space. Investing in either of these models will undoubtedly lead to improved air quality and a cleaner home environment.
