About pureAir HVAC
pureAir HVAC is a new generation Air Purication Enhancement System.
Designed to work with existing purication technology to reduce odors,
smoke, and a broad spectrum of indoor air contaminants.
pureAir HVAC is easily mounted into air conditioning and/or heating systems
where contaminants can grow. When the HVAC system is in operation,
pureAir HVAC produces the ARC® (Photocatalytic Oxidation) Process
consisting of hydroperoxides and superoxide ions, which are friendly oxidizers
that revert back to oxygen and hydrogen after the oxidation of a pollutant.
Cautions & Warnings
WARNING: UV Light in operation. Disconnect unit from power
supply before servicing. Failure to follow warnings may result in
severe eye damage.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of shock, this equipment may have
a grounding type plug with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will
only t into a grounding type power outlet. If the plug does not t
into the outlet, contact a qualied electrician or HVAC specialist to
install the proper outlet. DO NOT alter the plug in any way.

*Additional pureAir HVAC units are recommended in
the Return Plenum for added protection and to keep
the internal parts clean.
An opening of 4” across will need to be cut into the
existing duct work to install the unit properly.
Electrical Requirements
The unit is powered by connection to 24VAC from
HVAC System or 24VDC from 120VAC transformer
(included).
WARNING: Long term use of an extension cord is not recommended due to safety considerations.

Installation
1. Locate a suitable area of duct for
the installation.
7. (A) Install the Mounting Plate to
the Duct using the Eight (8) Self-
Tapping Screws.
2. Cut away any insulation to expose
the duct.
3. Use the Mounting Plate to trace
the main hole and the eight (8)
Screw Hole Locations.
4. Use a 1/8” Drill Bit to drill the 8 screw
hole locations just marked. (If you are
using Tin Snips, add 4 additional holes
around the large marked circle.)
5. Use a 4” Hole Saw or the Tin Snips to
cut around the traced hole.
6. Unscrew the Knurled Thumb Nuts and
remove the Mounting Plate from the
unit ballast. Peel the backing from
the adhesive side and press the plate
onto the duct over the cut opening.
(B) For Fiberglass Ductwork, attach using
the 2” Bolts with Toggle Bolt Anchors.

Installation (Continued)
8. Orient the Ballast to allow the Power
Outlet to face the the ideal direction.
9. Align the ARC Cell’s screw holes with
the holes on the Ballast in a way which
will allows air to pass through the Cell
once mounted into the duct.
10. Mount the Cell onto the Ballast,
ensuring that the UV Bulb’s prongs
fully insert before fastening the screws.
Note: The UV bulb can only be inserted one way,
but it can rotate inside the cell to accomodate
your required cell orientation.
11. Place the unit through the hole in the
mounted faceplate so that airow
always passes through the honeycomb.
12. Thread the four (4) Knurled Thumb
Nuts onto the Threaded Bolts,
making sure a seal is created along
the backside of the Ballast Housing.
13. Plug the Power Cable into your unit
and then into the outlet. Ensure that
both the Unit Power LED and Cell
Power LED are active.

Dispose of the spent ARC Cells and UV Lamps at your local recycling center or by
local regulations. You may also send your spent ARC Cells and UV Lamps, in the
same container you received your replacement, to:
GreenTech Environmental Reclamation

Your pureAir HVAC unit requires no periodic maintenance beyond the normal
replacement of the ARC Cell every year. It is recommended, for optimum
performance, that the ARC Cell be replaced annually.
The UV Lamp Operation Indicator on the face of the unit will glow when the unit is in use.
If the indicator does not glow and the unit has power, the ARC Cell needs replacing.
