SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-
tions such as changing filters. All other operations should
be performed by trained service personnel. When working on
air-conditioning equipment, observe precautions in the litera-
ture, tags and labels attached to the unit or accessory, and other
safety precautions that may apply.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work
gloves.
GENERAL
The Totaline® Whole-House HEPA Air Cleaner is designed
to remove particulates from the airstream, such as atmospheric
and household dust, coal dust, insecticide dust, mites, pollen,
mold spores, fungi, bacteria, viruses, pet dander, cooking
smoke and grease, and tobacco smoke. The air cleaner also re-
moves odors with a carbon prefilter. The Totaline Whole-House
HEPA Air Cleaner helps provide relief from allergies, asthma,
and other respiratory problems.
The air cleaner is installed in parallel to the return air duct.
The air flows through a 2-stage air filtration system.

COMPONENTS
See Fig. 1 for a picture of the air cleaner. See Table 1 for air
cleaner specifications.
Cabinet — The cabinet is constructed of heavy gage steel.
The cabinet can be free standing or adapted to mount on a wall
or be suspended from a ceiling.
Activated Carbon Prefilter — The activated carbon
prefilter removes lint and odors from the airstream. The
filter is an activated carbon impregnated, polyester filter.
HEPA Filter — The HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate
Air) filter captures 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns
(1/84,000-in.) and larger. This HEPA filter has 65 sq ft of col-
lection surface area.
INSTALLATION
Location — The air cleaner should be located as close to
the return air duct as possible. This allows shorter ducting to
the air cleaner and keeps static pressure lower.
The unit can be adapted to mount on a wall or be suspended
from a ceiling. The unit should not be installed outside or in an
area where moisture may leak on the unit.
There must be 24 to 36-in. clearance above the unit to
remove and change filters.
Before installing air cleaner or performing maintenance or
service on air cleaner, unplug the unit. Electrical shock can
cause injury or death.

NOTE: Any outside air added to the system from a HRV
(Heat Recovery Ventilator) or directly must be introduced
before the filtration system.
Install Filters
1. To access the filters, turn the Air Cleaner off at the
switch and remove the top cover.
2. Cut wire ties from holddown bar. Remove the filters
from inside the air cleaner by pulling the filter hold-
down bar forward one side at a time.
3. Remove plastic wrapping from carbon prefilter. Date
the HEPA filter in the space provided on top. Wrap
carbon prefilter blanket around HEPA filter and secure
with Velcro.
4. Ensure the open end of the HEPA filter is facing down
toward the motor. Position filter so it is touching the
back position bars and is inserted past the line marked
on the cabinet.
5. Replace the filter holddown bar by placing one side
under the bracket on the side of the cabinet. Once you
have one side started, push the bar under the bracket
on the other side of the cabinet, ensuring the filter has
a good seal. (See Fig. 2.) Replace the top cover.
NOTE: When filters are new, you may notice a new odor from
the system. This is normal and will dissipate within a few days.
Connect Ductwork — To connect the ductwork to the
air cleaner, perform the following:
NOTE: If outside air is introduced into the return air duct,
either through a HRV (Heat Recovery Ventilator) or
directly, it should be added to the system before the intake
inlet to the air cleaner.
1. When the unit is shipped, the intake and exhaust col-
lars are reverse mounted to prevent damage in ship-
ping. Both collars must be removed and reattached
with the collar ring facing out.
2. An inlet collar is provided on the unit to allow a flexi-
ble 8-in. intake duct, from the cold air return, to be
attached. The 8-in. intake must be drawn from the cold
air return duct at a location that will be ahead of the
clean exhaust air, that will be returned to the duct from
the air cleaner.
3. A duct adapter and a length of 8-in. flexible hose or
duct is required to attach between the 8-in. intake col-
lar and the existing cold air return duct. When running
the hose, make sure that there are no kinks or sharp
bends that will impede the airflow to the unit. Secure
and seal the hose and connections to prevent air
leakage.
4. A duct adapter and a length of 6-in. flexible hose or
duct is required to attach between the exhaust collar
and the existing cold air return. The exhaust hose
should be attached to the return air duct, close to the
furnace. The ideal location is low on the return air boot
pointing at the furnace. To prevent air shear inside the
duct, it is recommended that you install a deflector
inside the boot, so the discharged air is deflected down
into the boot. See Fig. 3. When running the hose, make
sure that there are no kinks or sharp bends that will
impede the airflow from the unit. Secure and seal the
hose and connections to prevent air leakage.
5. It is important to maintain some distance between the
intake and the exhaust openings in the return air duct.
Failure to do this may result in short cycling between
the intake and the clean air discharge. It is recom-
mended that you leave 10 ft between the intake and the
exhaust; however, as little as 6 ft will work effectively.
If the distance is smaller than 6 ft, it is important that
an air deflector is installed in the duct.
Do not connect to the supply side of the system. Damage to
equipment could result. Unit must be installed on the return
side of system only. Do not install in a cooking area or con-
nectdirectly to an appliance.

OPERATION
The HEPA Air Cleaner is designed to operate continuously.
The heating/cooling system that the air cleaner is connected to
should be set accordingly. If the heating/cooling system is set
on “automatic” the HEPA Air Cleaner should be connected to
an air switch or relay to turn the unit on when the system is
operating.
The HEPA Air Cleaner is equipped with a standard 120 v
power cord that can be plugged into any 120 v outlet.
NOTE: Avoid unit damage and possible personal injury. DO
NOT place cord in high traffic areas.
All filters must be installed correctly and the filter access
panel must be secured for proper unit operation.
MAINTENANCE
Carbon Prefilter — Replace every 3 to 6 months. Vacuum
with a soft brush attachment between changes. If there are
heavy odors in the home from cooking, smoking, painting or
other sources, the filter will require changing more often.
HEPA Filter — Replace every 2 to 3 years. The HEPA fil-
ter’s service depends on the amount of contaminants in the air
and the frequency of prefilter cleaning/changes. Renovations in
the home that create wood, drywall dust or similar contami-
nants will shorten the life expectancy of the HEPA filter. The
filter surface is fragile. Vacuum with a soft brush attachment
regularly. If possible, vacuuming should be done outdoors.
NOTE: Handle the HEPA filter by the frame only. Any tears
or punctures in the filter material will reduce efficiency.
Filter Replacement — Unit filters must be changed on
a regular basis to maintain unit efficiency. The prefilter and
HEPA filter should be vacuumed regularly to reduce the
static pressure drop of the filters between filter changes. Use
Totaline® replacement filters only; contact the original installer
for replacement parts.
To replace filters:
1. Turn power off and remove the top cover.
2. Release the filter holddown bar by pulling forward.
3. Carefully remove filters to avoid spilling of collected
contaminants. Dispose of filters in a plastic bag.
4. Remove plastic from the new filter. Be careful not to
damage filter.
5. Date replacement HEPA filter in the space provided.
6. Place the carbon prefilter around the HEPA filter and
secure with the Velcro.
7. Ensure the open end of the HEPA filter is facing down
toward the motor and is inserted past the line marked
on the cabinet.
8. Replace the filter holddown bar, ensuring the filter has
a good seal.
9. Reinstall and secure top cover and turn power on.
