Safety Precautions
Always think safety and use common sense precautions when working with Air-Care equipment. Do
not block walkways with equipment and remove delicate and breakable articles from the immediate
work area. The following are precautions that should be reviewed by all persons who will be involved
in the cleaning activity.
•Other than the 3 filters, the brush and the Batteries in the Remote, there are no user serviceable
components in Air-Care DuctMaster or Vent Vac. Only trained technicians should attempt to make
internal repairs on this equipment.
•Always unplug both power cords before removing the covers to change filters or clean the internal
parts of the DuctMaster.
•Inspect AC power plugs to be sure the ground pins are in place.
•Never connect power to Air-Care equipment unless all covers and safety shields are in place.
Mechanical and electrical parts could activate without warning and cause injury.
•Never allow anyone but a properly trained technician to use the equipment.
•All Air-Care equipment is designed for US standard 115-volt, 60 Hz AC. The Air-Care DuctMaster
is optionally available in 220/240 Volt, 50/60 Hz Power. Always check the specifications on the
equipment before connecting electrical power to Air-Care Equipment.
If you have questions about the safe use of any Air-Care product, call 702-454-5515.
Equipment specifications and part numbers are subject to change without notice.

Operating Instructions
Set-Up and Testing
The Air-Care DuctMaster has significantly MORE static pressure than Air-Care TurboJet Negative Air
Machines and will be able to pull heavy, moist (But NOT WET) or sandy construction debris out of
dryer vents, commercial ducts, chimneys, and restoration areas. It is NOT meant to be a wet vacuum
for liquids.
To test an Air-Care DuctMaster, plug one of the power cords into a suitable 120-volt outlet. Line #1
will supply power to VAC1 and VAC2 and the Brush Motor, while Line #2 will provide power to VAC3
and VAC4 and the auxiliary AC socket on the panel. If all 4 VAC Motors are to be used at one time,
Line 1 and Line 2 must be plugged into 2 independent power outlets rated at 15 Amps each or more.
If you are not sure if 2 outlets are independent, press the center “test” button; the green power light
will only light up if the 2 power cords are in independent power outlets. In some areas there may be
independent lines, but the green light may not light up – This is true in some specific areas.
The optional 220/240 Volt Air-Care DuctMaster also requires 2 independent electrical outlets; each
must be 7.5 to 10 amps. This version does not come with a “test” button or green power light.
WARNING: DO NOT TURN ON MORE THAN 2 VAC MOTORS BEFORE PERFORMING THE
‘TEST’, WHICH WILL INDICATE A GREEN LIGHT IF PLUGGED INTO TWO INDEPENDENT
OUTLETS. IF THE EQUIPMENT IS NOT PLUGGED INTO INDEPENDENT OUTLETS BEFORE
TURNING ON MORE THAN 2 VAC MOTORS, A POWER SURGE MAY OCCUR AND TRIP A
CIRCUIT BREAKER IN THE BUILDING.
Because of a unique full flow check valve system, any combination of motors can be used. Any one
motor can be used by itself or any 2 or 3 can be used with identical airflow and static pressure (water
lift). The Universal Remote and the Power Brush operate from Power Cord #1, so even if you are only
using Vac Motor #3 or #4 that use Power Cord #2, both power cords must be plugged in for the brush
to operate.
One motor will provide more airflow than most single motor shop or HEPA vacuums, and two motors
will usually be more than adequate for most vacuuming needs. In those cases where extra power is
required, simply plug in the 2nd power cord and turn on the 3rd or 4th motor as required.
The Air-Care DuctMaster combines 4-high Powered Vacuum Motors, with a vacuum collector hose
and motor-brush assembly to both agitate and collect debris at the same time. This is called Contact
Cleaning. Once completely set up, with the vacuum motors running, the Brush motor speed can be
Selected with a switch on the Control Panel then the brush end can then be inserted into each duct
and the brush motor started with the hand held wireless Remote control or the Brush Run Switch on
the panel for thorough cleaning of the Air Ducts.
UNIVERSAL Remote:
The Handheld Remote Controls the Brush Motor.
The Red Button at the TOP Turns the Brush Motor ON with the First Press, while pressing it again
turns the Brush Motor OFF.
The 2 Buttons just below the RED button are Marked FWD / REV, and either one will Change the
direction of the Brush Rotation when pressed while the Motor is Running.
The other buttons are reserved for any new features that may be added in the future.

Using the
Air-Care DuctMaster
The Air-Care DuctMaster is an extremely powerful and versatile tool. The 3” vacuum hose is ideal for
collecting construction debris without clogging and can be directly inserted into a 4” air duct or dryer
duct. It can also be used with the “Y” adapter paired up with an agitation tool, such as the Air Whisk
or 20’ drill powered cable to be inserted at the same location. When connecting to a dryer duct, it is
important to clip the outside flap open for proper cleaning.
For collecting debris in a variety of situations, a set of 1 ½” diameter vacuum tools are supplied. See
pages 3 and 13 for a list of these tools.
The Air-Care DuctMaster’s high volume and high static “water lift” make it even more effective at
removing debris from smaller diameter air ducts than many other standard duct vacuums.
Air-Care has self-study and classroom and hands on training on how to clean all types of air systems,
call 800-322-9919 for details.

Cleaning Floor Ducts
Duct Cleaning with the Air-Care DuctMaster
The Air-Care DuctMaster has a unique dual function. The rotating brush on the hose assembly
agitates the dust and debris in the air duct, while the vacuum nozzle collects debris and filters out this
dust and debris in the 4 Stage HEPA filtration system. This Contact Cleaning method only requires
that the supply and return grills be removed and the air system turned off.
After connecting the Air-Care DuctMaster power cords to 2 separate power outlets (different circuits),
turn the Vac Motor and Brush Panel switches OFF. Connect the 1-½” X 35’ brush and motor hose
assembly or the optional 2” X 35’ brush and motor hose assembly to the 3” to 2” hose adapter that
you installed in the inlet of the Air-Care DuctMaster.
Use the vacuum motor switches on the panel to select the motors you want to use to vacuum the
ducts: 1, 2, 3 or all 4 motors can be used at one time. The motors can be turned on and off with
these switches.
The Wireless, Handheld Universal Remote uses an Infrared Light beam like a Television Remote.
The operator must be in sight of the front of the DuctMaster where the Remote Receivers are located
for it to operate. The operator can be across the room or up on a ladder and the remote will function if
there are no obstructions between the operator
and the sensor on the DuctMaster Panel. The
remote will NOT work between rooms.
Once the technician inserts the brush into the duct,
use the wireless remote control to turn on
the brush motor.
The technician will
push the brush and
hose into the duct until
it cannot be pushed
any farther, then press
the FWD/REV button on the wireless remote to “reverse” the brush
rotation to allow it to go deeper into the ducts. The brush can now be
pulled back to the return opening while still running. Stop the Brush
before removing it from the duct. Repeat this process for every supply
and return duct.
Where you have long ducts, such as larger main trunk lines without
access doors or a removable End Cap, the technician must make “cut-
ins”, to access the entire length of the duct. Many local governments
require a contractor’s licenses for technicians making cut ins. The access holes must be properly
sealed with a metal plate and screws and the original insulation replaced in the hole.
After cleaning each duct, each opening should then be decontaminated with Envirocon, an EPA
registered sanitizer, Soot Set sealer and Liquid Odor Kill air freshener. The Air-Care Foggers are
ideal for this (See Page 17)

Dryer Duct Cleaning with the
Air-Care DuctMaster
YOU WILL NEED: Air-Care DuctMaster and the drill powered dryer duct cable with 4” dryer duct
brush (Included with DuctMaster).
Dryer exhaust ducts vary in construction, materials and configuration from city to city. The general
procedure for using the drill powered dryer duct cable described here may need to be modified to
safely and effectively clean these ducts in your area. An alternate tool to the drill powered cable is
the Forward and Reverse Air Whisk, which requires an air compressor.
CAUTION: Cleaning the exhaust duct on a clothes dryer will improve performance and reduce future
lint build up, but the inside of the dryer itself must also be cleaned and lint removed from its fan,
heating area and other interior components to reduce the risk of fire.
1. With the dryer running, clip the outside flap “OPEN” and check the airflow at the exhaust with a
flow meter. Write down the reading for comparison after cleaning.
CAUTION: If you cannot locate where the air exhausts outside then you cannot guarantee
your work and probably should not try to clean it. Refer the customer to their contractor.
2. Turn off the dryer, remove power, then move it away from the wall and disconnect the exhaust
tubing. If it is a gas dryer, be careful to not damage or break the gas line.
3. Attach the 3” diameter DuctMaster vacuum hose to
the end of the exhaust duct (inside or outside,
depending on configuration).
4. Use 20’ drill powered dryer duct cable with 4” dryer
duct brush.
5. Insert the drive end of the cable into the chuck of
your Electric Drill. A low speed (300-500RPM), 3/8”:
chuck is best suited.
6. Place the drill in the Air-Care drill holder and secure
with the included straps. Plug the drill into the foot
pedal switch and plug the pedal cord into the wall.
Press the Drill’s Trigger and lock it in the “ON”
position. It will only run when the foot pedal is
pressed. The pedal leaves both hands free.
NOTE: Avoid Sharp Bends in the Cable, it will eventually result in a broken core.
7. Turn on the vacuum motors in the Air-Care DuctMaster then insert the 4” brush into the dryer
vent. The Drill will not run unless BOTH the Trigger Switch in the Drill Handle and the Foot
Pedal are Turned ON, Start the drill using the foot pedal only AFTER the brush has been
inserted into the duct.
8. If you experience resistance to the brush, the cable may “Twist Up” on you. If so, STOP the
drill. Try reversing the rotation and go slowly until you get past the restriction. If the Drill has a
torque limiting setting on the Chuck, it can be set to a lower torque to reduce cable twist up.
9. A slow steady insertion is ideal, but you may need to pull the cable out a few inches and push
it rapidly back to get around some obstructions and elbows.

Page 9 of 23
10.If the cable cannot be pushed all the way to the end of the duct, it may be necessary to also
insert the cable and brush from the other end of the duct.
11.If there is visible lint clog or bird nest, the Nest Claw tool may be needed to break it up. Attach
the nest claw tool to the cable with a setscrew, which is the same way the 4” dryer duct brush
attaches. CAUTION: The Nest Claw can be very aggressive and may damage flexible ducts.
12.If you only have access to one end of the exhaust duct, use the “Y” adapter to allow the
vacuum and the cable to be inserted from the same end of the exhaust duct.
13.Once the duct has been cleaned, the dryer should also be cleaned.
14.Remove the back cover of the dryer and clean out the lint on the internal components. Usually
4-8 screws are used to mount the back cover. Access to the interior of the dryer will vary with
model, be careful to not damage it.
15.Once the duct and dryer are clean, connect the dryer to the wall opening with aluminum hose.
(The Consumer Product Safety Commission does NOT recommend plastic connector hoses,
nor does any major dryer manufacturer).
16.Turn the dryer on and again check the airflow outside. Typically, over 1000 fpm (feet per
minute) (1000 fpm = 5 mps [meters per second]) is good, and less than 1000 fpm is usually
not. Continue cleaning until you have reached airflow over 1000 fpm. If 1,000 fpm cannot be
obtained, the duct may be damaged and require a contractor to correct the problem
17.Clean up any lint around the outside of the dryer, clean the exterior of the dryer and if you have
a sticker or magnet with your company name, date it for a follow-up cleaning in 12 months.

Maintenance
The Air-Care DuctMaster requires a minimum amount of maintenance, normally limited to cleaning or
replacing filters as they become filled with dirt and debris. It is always beneficial to keep the exterior
and interior of the machine clean. Only a qualified technician should perform electrical or mechanical
repairs. The brush head motor should be wiped off and metal particles captured by the magnets in
the motor should be removed with compressed air or a brush. The AAA (2) Batteries in the Handheld
Universal Remote should be changed annually.
Filter Removal & Replacement
1. Turn off all the VAC motors and unplug the
Air-Care DuctMaster.
2. Open the front door and remove the bag from
its 3” tube at the rear of the door.
3. Carefully remove the bag filter through the
door and dispose of it properly in accordance
with any local state or federal regulations
applicable.
4. If there is noticeable debris build up on
the electra-silver pre-filter above the
HEPA filter, push it to the rear and lift it
off and clean it. It can be rinsed with
water or sprayed with Dynamite cleaner
and rinsed, but it must be DRY before
reinstalling it into the Vacuum Unit.
5. To remove the HEPA, release the top latch and both side latches
and lift the vacuum tank off the base.
6. Lift the HEPA out and inspect it for damage or clogging. Inspect
the gasket under the HEPA. The HEPA cannot not be cleaned
without damaging it.
7. Install a new HEPA filter, by placing it into the base with the
airflow arrow pointing down.
8. Install a new dual stage bag filter
following the instructions on the bag. It
collects heavy debris in the bottom
section of the bag and lighter debris in
the top section.

Brush Motor Replacement Kit for
DuctMaster and TruckMaster
Coaxial Spring Mount
This new version of the Brush Motor and Mount retains all the advantages of the original and includes
some improvements to reliability, durability, and Debris Collection. It has more POWER so the New
DuctMasters have a 2 position Switch for HI and Low. Installing a new motor in a DuctMaster without
the Hi/Lo switch could run the FIRM brush fast enough to cause damage to older ducts. If in Doubt
about the Ducts condition, use the SOFT 12” Brush with the smaller, .021” Bristles. Contact Air Care
for questions about using the Newer Motor on existing DuctMasters or TruckMasters. 702-454-5515.
The Hoses, Motor and electrical Connections for the new version will fit previous DuctMaster Models.
KEEP THE NEW MOTOR FULLY ASSEMBLED!
First remove the OLD motor and mount from your hose:
1. Remove the screws holding the Motor Mount collar on the end of the hose and save the
screws and nuts to mount the new motor and mount. One screw also secures the internal
stiffener to the interior of the hose. (Some stiffeners are Steel, and some are Fiberglass)
2. Cut the 3 wires for the motor leaving enough cord to crimp (or solder) the wires to the new
motor wires. All 3 wires will need to be the same length for this new Motor Connection.
3. You will no longer need any of the parts in the original motor assembly unless you are
returning it to Air-Care with an RMA for warranty evaluation.
Installing the NEW Motor Assembly.
1. Be sure you have all the parts for the installation.
a. Your original Screws, 10-32 x 5/8” long machine screws,
b. 10-32 Hex Nuts with built in Lock Washers.
c. Metal or Fiberglass Stiffener (if it was on the original hose)
2. Remove the outer insulation from the black power cord in the hose to expose the 3
insulated motor wires about 2 inches long.
3. Strip the insulation from all 3 wires about ½” back from the ends.
4. Slide the larger black Shrink Tubing over the cable. It will slide over the new connections
after the wires are connected.
5. Slide the 3 pieces of smaller shrink tubing over each of the motor wires. The connections
can be made by Crimping the new connectors or soldering them. If you are planning to

Page 12 of 23
solder the connections, be sure the blue shrink tubing is far enough away from the heated
ends to prevent it from shrinking prematurely from the heat of soldering.
6. The wires may be different colors from the Motor than the ones from the hose cable. The
order is not important, the brush will operate with any combination of wires, but it may turn
in the opposite direction in some cases but will still change directions as before.
7. Each of the 3 wires from the hose can now be inserted into the Crimp connectors on the
new motor. Try to twist the wires tight enough so that all the strands go into the silver
connector, then crimp it with a crimping tool. Alternately, the wires can be soldered, if so,
be sure they are heated to a point where the solder flows into all the strands and into the
silver connector. The Motor is a low voltage, HIGH AMP device and a poor connection will
result in faulty performance.
8. Slide the Blue shrink tubing over the metal connector; Heat the tubing to shrink it in place.
A hair dryer, heat gun or even a cigarette lighter can be used. Be careful to not burn
yourself, the plastic hose or heat the other shrink tubing at this time.
9. Connect the other 2 wires following the same procedure.
10.When all 3 wires are connected and insulated, slide the larger black shrink tubing over
them and as far towards the motor as possible. Heat this shrink tubing to shrink it on to the
wires.
11.Next, slip the Nylon Loop Strap over the wires. This will guide the wires. The Loop Strap
will be held in place with one of the 10-32 x 5/8” screws used to hold the black nozzle on
the hose.
12.Insert the screws into the mounting holes in the Nozzle and thread the screws into the
original holes in the hose if possible. If this is difficult, you may need to drill new holes in
the hose using the 2 holes in the Black Nozzle as a guide. Use a 3/16” diameter drill.
13.When the screws are in place, place the loop strap hole over one of the screws and install
one of the nuts then tighten the screw with a screwdriver. It may be necessary to use a
screwdriver to thread the screws through the loop strap.
14.If your hose has a stiffener, install its loop over the other screw, install the nut and tighten it.
If there is no stiffener, just install the nut and tighten the screws.
15.Your repair and upgrade are now complete and ready to test. If you have any questions,
please call Air-Care Tech Support, 800-322-9919.

Pancake-Style Brush
12”x .021" Bristles Original, Soft
12" x .045" Bristles, New High Lift, Firm
18" x.032" Alum Hub 4 tuft Brush, Optional, soft
18" x .045" New High Lift, Firm
With the addition of the higher power Brush Motor with
HI and LOW Switch (On Panel Only), the Standard
Brush is the Firmer 12” Pancake Brush .045” dia.
Bristles, which is disposable and can be purchased
singly or in a 5 Pack. It can be used in the LOW Speed
mode for Internally insulated and older Flex ducts, but
always inspect the duct for brittleness or flaking
insulation before cleaning. If your machine only has a
single speed, these ducts should only be cleaned with
the softer 12” brush (.021" Dia. Bristle) Disposable
Pancake Brush. The “Pancake-Style” hubs allow either brush
to negotiate sharp turns in smaller air ducts and are even
more nimble with the slightly shorter new motor.
The New, Firm version of the brush floats higher in the duct,
especially on the "HI" setting of the Panel Switch.
It will function in older ducts with the "LO" Setting just as the
original 12" .021" Bristle version does.
The 2”,BLUE Vacuum Hose and motor now have an 18”
brush with .045” dia Bristles in the traditional Disposable
Pancake Hub. The stiffer bristles raise the brush higher in the duct, especially when the Panel Switch
is in "HI" setting. The Aluminum hub 18” Brush with .032” dia. Bristles is now optional.
The 12” Brushes will work on the 2” (Blue) hose.
While the New 18” Brush will fit on the 1.5” hose, there are some situations where the 18” brush may
not start properly with the Original Single Speed Motor.

Troubleshooting Guide
Prior to troubleshooting, check the following:
1. Be sure the power cords are plugged into 2 separate, dedicated power sources and verify that
the wall outlet where the power cord is plugged into is working. (Plug in a lamp or other device
and be sure it works properly).
2. Check that the dual stage, 15-gallon vacuum bag is not full, and that the 3rd stage electrostatic
air filter and 4th stage HEPA filters are not clogged.
3. Us the “test” button on the power panel to verify there are 2 independent power outlets being
used.
4. Unplug both Power Cords, Attach the Brush connector to the DuctMaster, Turn OFF all
switches on the Panel, especially the Brush RUN switch, Plug the power cords in again and
test.
Symptom Possible Causes Suggested Action
Low or no vacuum suction.
1. Filters are clogged.
2. Gaskets leaking.
3.
One or more motors are not
running.
4. The hose is clogged.
•Replace the dual stage, 15-gallon
vacuum bag filter.
•Clean the 3rd stage electra silver pre-filter.
•Clean or replace the 4th stage HEPA filter.
•Inspect the door gaskets and base of the
HEPA for leaks
•
Run one motor at a time to determine
which one is not running.
•Remove the hose and check for vacuum
then reverse the hose to suck out clogged
debris if vacuum is ok. If there is still no
vacuum, call Air-Care.
Circuit breaker in building
trips.
1. Both power cords are plugged
into the same circuit.
•Check test light on panel, if it does not
light, only use 2 motors.
•
Find a second independent electrical
circuit for the second power cord.
Excessive noise.
1. White check valve located in the
Air-Care DuctMaster
cabinet is
installed upside down (air flow
arrow should point up).
2. One or more motors are bad.
•Remove check valve and install in proper
direction.
•Turn on one motor at a time to determine
which one is bad, and then call Air-Care
for a new motor. Only a trained technician
