WHAT THE HEPA, ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT &
PHOTO CATALYTIC AIR CLEANER DOES
The Console HEPA, Ultraviolet Light & Photo
Catalytic Air Cleaner has been designed to remove
particulate such as atmospheric and household
dust, coal dust, insecticide dust, mites, pollen, mold
spores, fungi, bacteria, viruses, pet dander, wood
smoke, cooking smoke and grease, tobacco and
cannabis smoke, and more.
The two non-ozone producing, high output
Ultraviolet lamps provide germicidal sterilization for
bacteria, viruses, mold and fungi and provide
photons to the CinQuartz™ Media (Photo Catalytic
Oxidation Filter) to reduce odors and Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOC’s).
A Final Filter containing a mixture of Carbon and
Potassium Permanganate further reduces odors,
light and non-organic gases.
BENEFITS
Helps provide relief from allergies, asthma, and
other respiratory illness.
Kills or inhibits bacteria, viruses, mold, fungi
and microbial growth.
Eliminates or reduces odors and gases emitted
from air fresheners, carpets, construction
materials, glues, household cleaners, paints,
varnishes, personal care products, press board
furniture, cigarette and cannabis smoke, and
lots more.
Helps reduce housekeeping time and
redecorating costs.
Provides a healthier, more comfortable
environment, year-round.
HOW IT WORKS
Millions of airborne pollutants are carried the Air
Cleaner by a powerful variable speed motor where
they passes through a 5-stage filtration system.
The air passes through a pleated Carbon Prefilter
to remove lint, large particles and heavy weight
gases to extend the life of the HEPA and PCO
filter.
Smaller particles then pass through a long-life,
99.97% HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air)
Media Filter which captures particles 0.3 micron
(1/84,000 of an inch) and larger. The filter becomes
more efficient as it gets dirtier with time. This HEPA
filter has more than 40 ft² of collection surface
area.
The clean air passes through a reflection chamber
where two High Output Ultraviolet (C band)
Germicidal Lamps emit powerful UVC light rays
which are designed to kill or inhibit bacteria,
viruses, mold, fungi and microbial growth. These
are non-ozone producing lamps. The Ultraviolet
Light is also used to activate the unique
CinQuartz™ Media located above the UVC lamps.
The CinQuartz™ Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO)
Filter is a Quartz media coated with nanoparticles
of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2). The combined action of
the UVC light and the TiO2 decomposes organic
materials into basic molecules such as H2O and
CO2 and reduces odors and VOC’s as a result.
Air then passes through a Final Filter containing a
mixture of Carbon and Potassium Permanganate
pellets further reducing odors and light gases.
Clean air is discharged back into the room.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Lean Air Cleaner on side panel and pull out of box.
If your unit has any signs of damage, immediately
contact the store where the Air Cleaner was
purchased.
Keep the shipping carton and packaging in case
the need arises to store or transport the unit.
Remove all packaging from the unit. Choose a
suitable location to allow unobstructed circulation
from the front and top of the unit.
The Air Cleaner plugs into a regular outlet at the
voltage shown on rating label.
The Control Switch for the Air Cleaner is located on
the rear of the unit. To turn the Air Cleaner on,
rotate the Control Switch knob clockwise. This
controls the power to the Fan and to the UVC
Lamps. When the Control Switch is turned just
past the click position, the fan is on high speed.
Rotating the Control Switch completely clockwise
reduces the fan speed to it’s lowest setting. When
the Control Switch is turned ON, the Indicator on
the rear of the unit will be illuminated.
The Air Cleaner is designed to run continuously
to provide clean, filtered air 24 hours a day.
Running the Air Cleaner intermittently will
shorten the effective life of the lamps.
Note: Do not allow the cord to be placed
where it may be walked on or allow anything to
roll over it.
WARNING
This unit is designed to emit powerful ultraviolet radiation
to sterilize microorganisms. It is dangerous to come in
contact with or look at the light from this unit. Always
turn the Air Cleaner OFF and UNPLUG the unit before
opening panels or the lamp access door.
2
WARNING
The air cleaner has been shipped without the 2 UVC
lamps installed. The filters are enclosed in plastic bags.
Before running the unit remove the plastic bags and
discard safely. Install the lamps following the
instructions given in the maintenance instructions. Use
the cotton gloves provided when handling the lamps.

MAINTENANCE
For efficient operation, the filters must be
changed on a regular basis. If you notice a
reduction in air flow from the system, check the
filters.
Replacing the HEPA Filter and Prefilter
1. To access the filters, turn the Air Cleaner
OFF at the switch and open the Rear,
Bottom Filter Access Door.
2. Carefully remove the filters to avoid spilling of
collected contaminants. Dispose of filters in a
plastic bag and discard with regular
household trash.
3. Remove the plastic from the new filters
before installing. Discard plastic safely. Take
care not to damage the filters. Hold by the
filter frame only.
4. Date the replacement filter in the space
provided.
5. Place the filters in their appropriate track with
the arrows pointing up.
6. Use genuine replacement filters only. Call
your dealer for parts or call 1-800-267-8305.
Note: When the filters are new, you may
notice a new smell from the system. This is
normal and will dissipate within a few hours.
Prefilter (#DM900-0855): This must be
replaced every 3-6 months. A clean Prefilter will
increase the life of the HEPA Filter and improve
airflow.
HEPA Filter (#DMH4-0400): Replace every 2-3
years. The life of this filter depends on the
amount of contaminants in the air and the
frequency in which the Prefilter has been
changed. Renovations in the home that create
wood, drywall dust or similar contaminants will
shorten the life expectancy of the HEPA filter.
Note: Handle the HEPA filter by the frame
only. The paper is fragile and a puncture or tear
will reduce efficiency.
Replacing the UVC Lamps, PCO Filter and
Final Filter
1. To change the PCO filter, Final filter and UVC
lamps, turn the Air Cleaner OFF and
UNPLUG it. Remove the screws from the
Rear Top Lamp Access Panel and remove
the panel. DO NOT misplace the parts.
2. Carefully remove the filters to avoid dusting
of filter. Dispose of the filters in a plastic bag
and discard with regular household trash.
3. To remove the lamp from the lamp socket,
pull the lamp, by the base, away from the
lamp socket. Remove the lamp from the
support clip. Remove the plastic lamp support
clips by pinching the back of the clip and
lightly pulling away from the reflector.
