APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS

The Perfect Airt Purifier is designed for use in the return air

duct of a forced air heating, cooling, and ventilation system.

Models GAPAAXBB1625 and GAPAAXBB2025 are

specifically designed for use in systems with a forced air gas

furnace.
Air Conditioning
The Perfect Airt Purifier should be installed in a system so

that all the return air is circulated through the air purifier. It

should be located upstream of both the furnace and the air

conditioning evaporator coil. This will help keep the furnace

and evaporator coil clean and prevent condensation from

forming within the Perfect Airt Purifier.
Humidifiers
An evaporative humidifier can be mounted upstream of the

Perfect Airt Purifier. It is best to install atomizing humidifiers

downstream of the air purifier because hard water salt deposits

and water droplets may damage air purifier. If an atomizing

humidifier must be mounted upstream of the Perfect Air t

Purifier, it should be mounted as far upstream as possible (at

least 6 ft recommended), and a standard disposable furnace

filter should be mounted between the humidifier and the air

purifier to trap hard water salt deposits and water droplets.

Transitions
If the return air duct or furnace openings do not fit the Perfect

Air t Purifier cabinet openings, gradual transitions are

recommended to reduce air turbulence and maximize efficiency.

No more than 20 degrees (about 4 in. per running ft) of

expansion should be used on each side of the transition fitting.
Turning Vanes
If the Perfect Airt Purifier is installed adjacent to a 90 degree

duct elbow, turning vanes should be added inside duct to

improve air distribution across the face of the air purifier.
Electrical Power
The Perfect Airt Purifier should only be powered when airflow

is present. The furnace control EAC terminals provide power

only when the furnace blower is operating. Perfect Air t

Purifier models GAPAAXBB1625 and GAPAAXBB2025 are

designed to be powered from the electronic air cleaner (EAC)

terminals on a furnace electronic control. If EAC terminals are

not available, an alternative airflow sensing mechanism must be

used to ensure the Perfect Airt Purifier is only powered when

airflow is present. Contact local Bryant distributor for

information on approved alternatives.
