STEP 5

Rinse the cell(s) and prefilter with a hard spray of very hot water; rinse the tub clean, then fill the tub with clean hot water and soak for 5 to 15 minutes. Rinse until the water draining from the cell(s) and prefilter no longer feels slippery.

 

STEP 6

 

Wipe the ionizer wires and contact board on the

 

end of the cell with a clean cloth.

Washing the cell(s)

Use the hand sprayer at a coin-operated do-it-

at a car wash

yourself car wash to wash the cell(s) and

 

prefilter. Hold the nozzle at least two feet away

 

from the unit to avoid damage from the high

 

pressure stream of water. Follow the same

 

sequence of wash and rinse as recommended

 

for cars; however, do not wax the cell(s) or the

 

prefilter. Be sure to rinse until the water draining

 

from the cell(s) and prefilter no longer feels

 

slippery.

Cleaning

Just as with a conventional return air grille, lint

lint and dust

and dust will collect on the grille and door of

accumulation

your electronic air cleaner. This can be removed

on door

during normal house cleaning by dusting or by

 

using the brush attachment on your vacuum

 

cleaner. If the door becomes stained, so that it

 

cannot be cleaned by dusting, the door can be

 

removed and soaked in a tub, or wiped clean

 

using a mild spray cleaner.

Replacing air cleaner components

STEP 1

Inspect the cell(s) for broken ionizer wires and bent collector plates. Repair as necessary or take to a Honeywell authorized air cleaner repair station.
