Maintenance:
The filter media in your air cleaner must be changed
periodically. The frequency of filter replacement is best
determined by visual examination. However, a 60 day
replacement of the 2” filter and 5 years for the HEPA
filter is strongly recommended. Replacement filters
obtained through your installing contractor or local
dealer. - Actual replacement may vary depending on
the severity of dust and dirt particles.
If the Photocatalytic filter should become dirty, it
may be cleaned with low velocity compressed air
or vacuum only, no solvents or water should be
used. If the Photocatalytic section becomes wet, allow
the section to air dry before reinstallation.
The mesh screen on the Photocatalytic filter is coated
using a patented process known to photo chemically
breakdown VOC’s and Odors as well as reduce
airborne pathogens on contact. Under normal operating
conditions this filter should not require replacement
within five years and may last up to 10 years.
.
The Air cleaner should never be run with a filter with
less than a MERV-11* Filter.
Using less than a MERV-11* Filter rating will reduce
the effectiveness of this product. It is recommended
that this product be serviced and maintained by an
HVAC professional.
*MERV or Minimum efficiency rating value is a number
assigned to filters indicating their ability to capture
particles and dust, the higher the number the better the
filter. A MERV 11 filter is 40% more effective than a
MERV-8. Be sure that an Ultravation MERV-11 filter is
requested for replacements in this product.
