High Voltage Components
Your MySpaceTM is ideal for small/medium area air treatment, such as work areas,
oce spaces, kitchens, bedrooms, etc. We recommend a treatment area of up to 65m2
or 700ft2assuming 2.5m (8ft) ceiling with an air exchange of 3-6 times per hour,
although this will vary depending on demand and conditions of the treatment area.
This device will provide a constant stream of hydroxyls to treat air and surfaces.
The hydroxyls generated by the OHAirMySpaceTM will destroy bacteria, viruses,
mould, allergens and odour from the air. Surfaces in the operating area will also be
treated, reducing or eliminating these contaminants. Your MySpaceTM is designed to
protect you and your environment.
Operational Instructions
NOTE: If the sensors detect excessive moisture or other unsafe conditions, it will
automatically shutdown until the condition is no longer present.

Caring for your MySpaceTM
1 month
wash and air dry lter
CAUTION: Unplug the device from the mains before performing any cleaning
activities. Do not allow any excess water to enter the device or to come into contact
with the internal components. Do not use commercial surface cleaners.

It is recommended to remove and wash the air lter
monthly, more regularly if being used in a dusty area, by
removing the cover as below, extracting the air lter and
rinsing under the tap to remove large contaminants. Once
cleaned, it needs to be thoroughly air dried before
re-insertion.
Step 1 - Place the device on its back with power cord removed
Step 2 - Remove one screw 1with PH2 Phillips screw driver
Step 3 - Push both tabs in together 2to release cover
Step 4 - Lift cover upwards 3and towards you to remove the cover
Step 5 - Re-assemble cover in reverse order
It is recommended to clean the internal chamber and the
optic assembly (HGUTM) quarterly, more regularly if being
used in a dusty area, to maintain its peak eciency to
eliminate odours, bacteria, viruses and other volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) in the air and on surfaces. If the
HGUTM is in continuous operation, it is recommended to
replace the HGUTM annually with a new HGUTM purchasable
via the website. Every year when the HGUTM needs
replacement, it will display “driver expired” on the main
screen.

Recommended Use and Example
Your MySpaceTM unit is recommended for a treatment area of up to 65m2or 700ft2
assuming 2.5m (8ft) ceiling with an air exchange of 3-6 times per hour. This device is
recommended for the following areas and more:
KITCHEN
Your MySpaceTM helps to prevent mould and grease from growing on kitchen
surfaces which may result from airborne odours and chemical compounds released
during cooking activities.
BATHROOMS
Your MySpace helps in removing odours and prevents mould growing on the walls
through moisture present and water related activities. It also eliminates any bacteria
and viruses present on the bathroom surfaces.
Applications of your MySpaceTM are almost unlimited from oces and classrooms to
indoor smoking areas and bedrooms. Larger spaces with high demand can also be
treated with multiple units.
Treating A Large Area with Low Demand
Treating Cooking Area in the Kitchen
A large area with low use and low chemical/odour load can be treated with the
MySpaceTM fan settings set on high and with the use of an external fan to distribute
the treated air.
Kitchen surfaces that are vulnerable to mould build up and damaged surfaces due to
daily cooking activities, can be treated with MySpaceTM with fan settings set on high
and the unit placed 0.5m (20”) away from the stove. It is recommended that
MySpaceTM should have the air blowing across the stove at a height of about 0.5m
(20”). This is so the hydroxyls can eectively treat the area.
It is recommended that your MySpaceTM runs continously whether cooking or not to
prevent build up of mould and oil on kitchen surfaces. When cooking, hydroxyls
break down the steam/smoke and contaminants present within the steam/smoke.
When not cooking, hydroxyls break down the grease, mould, bacteria and viruses
already present on the kitchen surfaces. Therefore, your MySpaceTM will be working
for you round the clock to keep your kitchen safe and healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are hydroxyls?
Hydroxyls (HO•) are naturally occurring radicals. They are created in our atmosphere when the
sun's ultraviolet rays react with water vapour in the air. Hydroxyls are an important agent that
scrub and cleanse our planet's environment. OHAirHydroxyl Generators replicate this
naturally occuring process and bring it indoors.
How do hydroxyls clean surfaces and hard to reach places?
Once the hydroxyls are created, they are sent to 'seek and destroy' odour molecules, bacteria,
viruses, mould, VOCs and other chemicals.
This system does not require all of the contaminants within a room to pass through the
processing chamber. Outside the unit the hydroxyls immediately begin a cascade reaction in
the air, thus creating even more hydroxyls. The cascade of hydroxyls quickly disperse
throughout the air and penetrates surfaces and objects and reach places that otherwise can’t
be reached. Other technologies only clean or lter the air that passes through the unit (a small
percentage of the air in a room).
How does it kill mould?
As well as directly destroying spores, the OHAir®system treats infected areas by cutting o the
food source for mould. As a result, there is nothing for mould to feed on since the very bacteria
and micro-organisms that it relies on to survive have been killed o. Only this way can mould
be rendered inert.
Are hydroxyl generators safe to run in occupied areas?
Hydroxyls generators developed by OHAirare safe to run (and have been independently
tested) in occupied areas. Unlike ozone and harsh chemicals, hydroxyls are completely safe for
people, pets and plants. They will not damage rubber, plastic, leather, vinyl, electronics or
other sensitive materials. They will also not bleach or discolour items - wet or dry.
How long does it take to work?
Hydroxyls are very fast acting and do their work through a chemical reaction. There needs to
be a high enough concentration - If there is no noticeable reduction in odour, a second or
stronger unit may be required. Results are often noticed within the rst few minutes of
operation, with heavy odours being permanently eliminated after 3 – 4 days.
Do hydroxyls smell?
Hydroxyls themselves don’t have any smell. When hydroxyls interact with the environment,
that may create some odour. If the odour is too strong, turn the fan speed on your MySpaceTM
to lower settings. The odour may be stronger initially as a room is rst treated.
The odour/mould I was treating is gone, will it come back?
Air and Surfaces will be fully treated. If the cause (urine, feaces, smoke, cleaning agents, mould,
etc) is within/embeded in the material, the unit will need to be run until the source is
exhausted or removed. You can also damp (wet) down the surface and re-treat to improve
results.
