Installation & Maintenance Instructions
UNPACKING THE UNIT
Each unit is shipped with the 5” lamp installed . Carefully remove
lamp from the tube taking care to not touch the glass portion of
the lamp with bare hands. Oils from the hands can cause “hot
spots” which reduce lamp life. Handle by the end caps or use a
soft cloth. If you accidentally touch a lamp, clean it using the
included alcohol cleaning pad or a soft cloth dampened with rub-
bing alcohol. The lamp is fragile and proper care must be taken
when removing from packaging.

LIMITED WARRANTY

INSTALLATION:
Best results are achieved when the unit is installed where the HVAC system air temperature is most constant.
Therefore, the preferred installation is on the return side of the furnace. If return side installation is not possible,
install the unit on the supply side. Mount the FM2 upstream when installing in combination with a polarized media
air cleaner.
If there is a device that creates ozone in the space such as an ionizing air cleaner, it is recommended the FM1-5 not
be used in the application. For example, an FM1-16 could be substituted. Homes with multiple air handlers: install
one FM1-5 on the main level air handler and an FM1-16 on the other air handler(s).
Do not locate the unit within 20” of plastic materials that will be directly exposed to the UV light, such as wiring,
return side humidier or certain types of air lters. Check with the lter manufacturer to see if their material is UV
resistant. Over time, UV light may degrade some plastics and petroleum based materials.
Do not touch the glass portion of the lamps with bare hands because oils from the hands can cause “hot spots”
which reduce lamp life. Handle either by the end caps or use a soft cloth. If you accidentally touch a lamp, wipe it
off using the included alcohol cleaning pad or a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol.
1. Cut out the shaded area of the installation template. (Please see insert.)
2. Center the template on the longitudinal axis of the plenum and attach with tape.
Trace the hole pattern for the unit and mark centers for mounting screws. (Airow direction is marked on the unit.)
3. Cut opening for the unit using a 2” hole saw or tin snips.
4. Attach the unit to the air duct using the four self tapping sheet metal screws provided.

SETTING THE ACTIVATED OXYGEN
OUTPUT LEVEL
• The air purication process occurs only while air is circulating
through the HVAC system.
• The oxidizing level can be easily adjusted as needed using the
“Oxidation Odor Control” lever on the unit. Start with the setting in
the normal range. Decrease the setting if an activated oxygen odor
is detectable. If household odors are noticeable after 24 hours,
increase the setting
MAINTENANCE
This maintenance schedule is only a guideline, determined by average
conditions. Actual conditions will dictate the frequency of cleaning and/or
replacement of lamps. Do not touch the glass portion of the lamps with
bare hands because oils from the hands can cause “hot spots” which reduce
lamp life. Handle either by the end caps or use a soft cloth. If you
accidentally touch a lamp, clean it using a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol.
CLEANING THE LAMP - Recommended interval: 12 months (Follow the procedure below)
Replacement lamps are available through your HVAC contractor.
REPLACING THE LAMP - Recommended interval: 24 months. (Follow procedure below excluding #6.)
Note: Standard off-the-shelf lamps are not compatible with this unit. Use of improper lamps will void warranty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Remove the cover from the unit by removing the four machine screws. Remove the oxidation control.
3. Unplug the lamp from the lamp connector.
4. Remove lamp holder using a 1/4 size nut driver (Figure A).
5. Remove the lamp by grasping the end cap and extract carefully.
6. Using a soft cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol, wipe down the lamp. If there is a large build-up of dust
particles, you may wish to use a can of air rst. Always handle lamps by end caps.
7. Slide the lamp back into lamp opening.
8. Reinstall lamp holder.
9. Plug the lamp into the lamp connector.
10. Replace cover and align the oxidation control knob with the adjustment linkage until linkage clicks into place.
Secure cover using the four machine screws.
11. Restore power to unit.
TROUBLESHOOTING The LED should light when the furnace blower is running.
If the LED does not light: 1. Check to be sure there is power to the unit.
2. Be sure lamp connectors are fastened securely.
3. If the LED still does not light, replace lamp(s).
4. If still not operating, replace ballast.
Note: Standard off-the-shelf lamps are not compatible with this unit. Use of an improper lamp will void warranty.

WIRING
This unit must cycle with the furnace blower. Wire unit to an EAC terminal or current-sensing relay to cycle
the unit with the system fan. The multi-voltage ballast is self-adjusting and operates with voltages from 120 - 240
VAC. For 120V wiring connect the black wire to L1, white wire to neutral, green wire to ground.
For 240V wiring install 5 amp in-line fuses then connect the black wire to L1, white wire to L2, green wire to
ground. Be sure power cord is secured with included strain relief connector. Wire the unit in accordance with lo-
cal wiring codes. After installing, verify voltage is operating between 120 - 240 VAC with air handler operating.
Odor Control Lever

1. Cut out area of template indicated by the two red
shaded circles if using a hole saw.
2. Place template on the return path of the H VAC
system and trace the hole pattern for the unit and
mark centers for mounting screws. Unit must be
oriented so long dimension is parallel to the
direction of the air ow parallel to the direction of
the air ow.
3. Cut opening for the unit.
4. Install unit into air duct so that airow
matches direction indicated on side of unit
using the four self tapping sheet metal
screws provided.
