SPECIAL CONSIDERATION
For integrated system installation
• Verify clearance on the ductwork to
mount the unit using the Forced Air
heating/cooling system
• Minimum clearance requirements for
maintenance and service
• Electrical power requirements
• Interaction between the HEPA lter
unit and other mechanical devices.
DUCTING FLAIR SYSTEM
Installation
The Whole House HEPA Filtration sys-
tem is designed to install directly onto
the return air plenum of the forced air
heating/cooling system. Choosing this
type of installation eliminates the need
to externally duct the HEPA lter unit to
the plenum system. If you choose this
type of installation, it is recommended
that you run the fan on your forced air
system continuously to maximize its
cleaning ability.
TIPS TO INSTALLER
The Whole House HEPA Filtration sys-
tem does not replace the lter from the
forced air heating/cooling system. Reg-
ular maintenance of this lter is neces-
sary to permit the good operation of the
forced air heating/cooling system.
OPTIONAL COLLAR SYSTEM
Installation
Using kit no. 463085 the Whole House
HEPA Filtration system can be convert-
ed to use 8 inch round collars for appli-
cation requiring ducting. The kit includes
two, 8 inch round collars, two mounting
brackets for wall or oor mounting, in-
stallation guide and fasteners.
The Whole House HEPA unit is a versatile appliance with multiple installations
conguration. It is recommended to take your time in planning the installation.
Several Installations are illustrated herein’ for Whole House ltration applications:

5. INSTALLATING THE UNIT: STEP BY STEP (continued...)
TIPS TO INSTALLER
Please consult local authorities to nd out
whether the installation of electrical prod-
ucts requires the services of a certied
technician or electrician. Removing the
lters from the unit will facilitate your job.
DUCTING FLAIRS
MOUNTING SYSTEM
The Whole-House HEPA Plenum Systems
are designed for single person
installation. Imperial Air Technologies is
introducing it’s «Ducting Flairs» system
which is integrated within the unit and will
enable you to save time and effort.
Once the holes are made in the main
return duct and the unit is aligned, the
installer just has to unfold the «Ducting
Flairs» and screw the unit in place.
TIPS TO INSTALLER
It is recommended that the ltration unit
have a devoted receptacle with 120V. It is
not recommended to connect unit with an
extension cord. If no receptacle is avail-
able please call an electrical contractor to
have one installed.
MAKE SURE TO INSTALL FILTER
ACCORDING TO AIR FLOW DIRECTION FOR
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE

FUNCTION
The Whole House HEPA system is comprised of a ventilator, speed selection switch,
3 stages of ltration and the cabinet enclosure system. The ventilator pulls air through
the pre-lter and then threw the impregnated carbon pad for odor control and nally
the last stage of ltration is the HEPA lter which removes 99.97% of particles 0.3µm
in size.
OPERATION MODE OPTIONS
The unit features two speeds of operation for your convenience. The speed selection
switch is located on the front of the motor assembly. At lowest speed the unit will
provide 220 CFM of clean air while at highest speed, the unit will provide 300 CFM of
clean air. It is recommended that the unit be operated on highest speed at all times to
maximize the benets of the HEPA ltration system. If for some reason the ltration
needs are not as important then one might operate the unit at low speed.
An access door is provided at the front of the unit to permit
access to the lters and speed selection switch. Opening the
latch on the right side of the unit will permit the door to swing
open. A safety door interlock switch cuts the power to the
motors for your safety. If needed the door can be removed
from the cabinet hinges by holding the top part of the door with
one hand and gently taping on the bottom edge of the door with
the other hand to release the door from its hinges.
RECOMMENDED OPERATION
The return plenum mount model operates in conjunction with your forced air heating/
cooling system. A forced air distribution system continuously circulates the same air
inside your home. The whole house HEPA ltration system operates on the principal of
bypass ltration, which means that a portion of the air being returned into the furnace is
ltered on each pass. Over time all the air in the home gets cleaned. It is recommended
that the furnace blower be in operation whenever the ltration system is in operation.
For stand-alone attic installation, the HEPA ltration system must be operated
continuously whenever a part of all the system is located in an unconditionned space to
avoid condensation in the ductwork below freezing (32°F ,0°C)
Maintenance of the unit should be performed at regular interval to keep the benets of
the HEPA ltration unit.
