Media Air Cleaners
Installation Instructions
1. High voltage may cause serious
injury from electrical shock.
Disconnect power to the
furnace/air handler before
starting installation.
2. Sharp edges may cause injury
from cuts. Use care when cutting
and handling sheet metal.
WARNING
1. To prevent component failure, do not install the air cleaner on the warm
air supply or in an area where the temperature may exceed 140°F. This
may include areas above heat exchangers in downflow furnaces or above
exhaust flues in lowboy furnace cold air returns.
2. Installation must be done by a qualified heating and air conditioning
professional. Read instructions thoroughly before beginning installation.
3. Do not install air cleaner downstream of a UV light. UV lamps will cause
degradation of the filtering media.
