INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Total Air Purification System
from Hunter Fan Company. You have purchased our
latest development in Portable Air Purification Systems.
This system has been developed to improve the quality of
the air you breathe.
Our Permanent HEPA Air Purification System out
performs other air purification systems by quickly and
effectively removing dust, smoke, and pollen particles as
small as 0.3 microns in size. The following innovative
features are included in your Hunter Air Purifier.

Do not use excessive force when handling the UVC
Lamp. Dispose of the UVC bulb in accordance with
local or State guidelines as trace amounts of Mercury
are present.
3. This Air Purifier is designed for use on a level floor and
may not work properly on an uneven floor. ALWAYS
place the Air Purifier on a firm, level floor. ALWAYS
place the Air Purifier at least six (6) inches away from
walls and heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or
heaters.
4. Place the Air Purifier in an area that is out of the reach
of children.
5. Before using the Air Purifier, extend the cord and
inspect for any signs of damage. DO NOT use the
product if the cord has been damaged.
6. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this product has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other)
as a safety feature. This plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat or
override this safety feature.
7. ALWAYS UNPLUG the Air Purifier while it is being
cleaned.
8. DO NOT move or tilt the Air Purifier while it is in
operation. Turn off and unplug before moving.
9. DO NOT immerse the Air Purifier in water at any time
because permanent damage will occur. To properly
clean your Air Purifier, follow the instructions in the
Maintenance section of this manual “Air Purifier
Maintenance” on page 7.
10. This equipment should be inspected frequently and
collected dirt removed from it regularly to prevent
excessive accumulation that could result in flashover
or risk of fire.

SETTING UP YOUR AIR PURIFIER
1. Take the Air Purifier out of the box and remove the
clear plastic protective bag and place the unit on a
firm, level surface.
2. Before turning on the Air Purifier, you need to confirm
that the filters are firmly in place and have not become
loose during shipping. To check the filters, push down
on the tab under the handle. Figure 1.
3. Gently pull the rear grill away from the unit and lift
away. Figure 2.
4. The washable Pre-Filter is mounted inside the back
grill of the unit. Confirm that it properly covers the
grill vents.
5. The Permanent HEPA Filter will be resting inside the
unit. If present, remove the plastic bag surrounding
the filter and place the filter back into the Air Purifier.
The filter should have arrows on the side to indicate
air flow and the direction the filter should be placed
back into the unit. Figure 3.
6. Set the tab on the bottom of the rear grill into the slot
in the base of the unit and rock the grill up until the
top tab snaps into place. Figure 4.
7. Plug the unit into a 120V electrical outlet.

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
Dust and other irritants are pulled into the Air Purifier by the fan. The Washable Pre-Filter
attracts larger particles like pet dander and hair and traps them on the Pre-Filter. Smaller
particles such as dust, mold, and pollen pass through the Pre-Filter and are captured by the
Permanent HEPA filter. Up to 99.9% of particles can be captured.
The UVC Light helps kill particles not trapped on the Permanent HEPA Filter and the
Photocatalytic Oxidation screen removes harmful VOC’s. Clean, purified air is then released
into the room through the front grill as the Oxygenating Catalyst converts smog and ozone
back into oxygen. Figure 5.

AIR PURIFIER MAINTENANCE
It is necessary to periodically check your Air Purifier for
performance. If the Pre-Filter and/or Permanent HEPA
Filter are covered in dust and other captured particles, it
will be necessary to clean one and or both. The Pre-Filter
and Filter should be checked at least every 6 months. The
UVC Light should be replaced every year.
NOTE: Some environments may require more frequent
cleaning of each filter. In these situations, adjust the time
you check your filters to ensure the filters stay clog free to
optimize performance.
