MAINTENANCE
The main collection ESP cells and pre-lter should be washed regularly, depending on usage, or when the Fault
indicator comes on. These 2 components should be soaked in soapy water.
A water jet spray may be used to help remove the contaminants from the plates and pre-lter. Remove them, rinse
and let it drip dry.
NOTE: Do not use any brush or device to clean the plates or wires. Doing so may cause damage to the cells. Charcoal
Filters, if used should be replaced every 3-4 months depending on usage. Failure to clean the ESP cells for an extended
period of time may result in them being damaged. The UVC lamp is located between the fan and the charcoal lter.
UV lights have a life span of 9000 hours.
