GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR AIR CLEANER

Run the air

For greatest efficiency, the air cleaner should

cleaner as much

run all the time. To do this, set the fan switch on

as possible

your thermostat to ON, and make sure the air

 

cleaner is switched on. The fan and air cleaner

 

will run even when the furnace or air conditioner

 

is off. Note: A manual fan switch may be built

 

into the furnace fan controller.

 

The air cleaner itself uses less power than a

 

40 watt light bulb (two-cell model—33 watts;

 

single-cell model—22 watts). You will also have

 

the cost of running the system fan to consider.

 

Generally the added cost is more than offset by

 

the added benefits of full time air cleaning and

 

improved air circulation. Some people feel that

 

room temperatures stay more even when the

 

fan is always on.

 

Even if your thermostat does not have a fan ON

 

position, you can obtain maximum available air

 

cleaning benefit by making sure the air cleaner

 

is always switched on so it operates whenever

Keep the cell(s)

the furnace or air conditioner is on.

 

and prefilter clean

Although the air cleaner is designed to be

 

efficient over a wide range of cell loading

 

conditions, regular cleaning is your best

 

assurance of consistent performance. Also, a

 

very dirty cell and prefilter reduces air flow and,

 

in turn, this reduces the efficiency of the furnace

 

or air conditioner.
