MAINTENANCE AND WASHING
MAINTENANCE
When to Wash: Periodically the dirt collected by your
unit must be removed. The frequency of washing will
depend on the amount of dirt present in the air in your
locality.
The washing frequency best suited for your unit can be
determined by examining the dirt collected components
at three week intervals. As the dirt begins to collect, you
3
will notice a light film, then a very definite collection will
be evident at a later examination. When there is a
noticeable build-up of dirt, it is time to wash.
input line voltage. A minimum voltage of 108 VAC is
required.
After assembling and installing the unit, turn the control
switch to one of the 3 positions.
In most areas the collecting cell should be washed every
12 weeks.
1. The unit’s green “on” light should now be on
indicating the unit has line voltage.
NOTE:
2. The voltage to the cell light (red) should be on
indicating high voltage is being sent from the
power supply to the cell. (Not on FM 1000
Media).
Dirt build-up on the ionizing–collecting cell should not be
confused with dirt stains. Dirt stains are normal and
should not affect efficiency.
STEPS FOR WASHING (Electronic Units Only)
ARCING (SNAPPING OR CRACKING NOISE)
Does not apply to FM 1000 Media
1. Switch control switch “OFF”.
2. Remove pre-filter and cell.
An occasional arcing noise may be emitted from the air
cleaner. This is normal and is caused by an
exceptionally large piece of dirt or other matter entering
the collecting cell. An arcing noise may also be noted
after cell washing. If this occurs and is consistent, allow
more time for the cell to dry. Refer to Troubleshooting
Chart.
3. Place components in automatic dishwasher,
stationary tub, shower stall or over floor drain.
Use hot soapy water and rinse thoroughly.
(Ionizing wires are easily broken. Handle the
cells with care.)
4. Replace pre-filter and cell.
5. Close cell access door.
6. Switch control switch to “ON”.
If arcing noise occurs due to wet cells, turn
switch off and allow more drying time.
If there are any problems, refer to the service
check list.
CAUTION:
TROUBLESHOOTING WILL EXPOSE HAZARDOUS
LIVE PARTS. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE
PROCEEDING. ALLOW THE CELL TO DISCHARGE
AT LEAST 2 MINUTES AFTER POWER HAS BEEN
TURNED OFF TO INSURE THERE IS NO RESIDUAL
CHARGE.
