Healthy Climate® Dealer Installation Instructions
Independent Operation:
The HEPA systems can be used independently of any other equipment! The inlet and outlet of the filtration system can be ducted into the same room to create a cleaner environment almost anywhere. The inlet or outlet can also be ducted elsewhere. The inlet and outlet should be installed on opposite sides of the room; however, this varies according to your specific needs.

Inlet (Marked as ‘Air In’ on unit):
•Inlet ducts should be installed near the floor for optimum airflow (see figure 11). If space does not allow, then the inlet can be installed in the ceiling.
•Inlet duct should be installed at least 8 ft. away from the outlet duct on the main return.
•Inlet duct should be installed at opposite end of the room from the outlet duct(s) if in the same room.
•Diffusers are recommended to help distribute airflow evenly.
Outlet (Marked as ‘Clean Air Out’ on unit):
•Outlet(s) should be installed in the ceiling away from any other air inlet(s)
•Room diffusers are recommended to help distribute airflow evenly in the occupied space.
Ducting:
•If HEPA system is installed where inlet and outlet collars face down, metal elbows must be connected to both inlet and outlet collars.
•Each connection must be sealed with aluminum tape or mastic, including all vent connections.
•Installed duct runs should be as straight as possible (if the duct runs are too long, reduced CFM may result).
•If duct is exposed to unconditioned air, insulated flex duct is highly recommended.
•Externally insulated flex duct can also be used for
Electricity:
•The unit must be plugged into a grounded 120V, 60Hz. outlet.
