PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
BENEFITS
THE AIR PURIFIER SYSTEM BRINGS THE MOST ADVANCED AIR PURIFICATION TECHNOLOGY INTO THE
COMFORT OF YOUR SPACE
Unlike other air puriers, Viro Tech Mini does more than simply filter the air in your space. Incorporating technology like
photo catalytic oxidation, high level negative ionization, scalable purification and electrostatic filtration allows the air
purification system to provide tangible benefits to your home or workspace by:
• Destroying pollution from the air, embedded in walls, ceilings, oors, carpets, furniture, etc.
• Reducing or eliminating odours such as cigarette smoke, mildew, food, etc.
• Contributing to the sanitization of all surfaces.
The whisper quiet ve-speed fan disguises the power encapsulated in the advanced air purication system. Having the air purier
in your space will not only improve the quality of air but most importantly it will improve the quality of life.
EASE OF USE
THE AIR PURIFIER IS YOUR HASSLEFREE PROVIDER FOR CLEAN AIR AND HEALTHY LIVING
With proper care and maintenance (see “CLEANING” page 10), the air purier will operate with the same robust power and
eciency for several years beyond the date of purchase. With the push of a button the unit starts working to eliminate the
biological contaminates and dangerous pathogens in your home or oce. Enhancing your overall quality of life has never
been this easy.
FOUR TECHNOLOGIES
ELECTROSTATIC FILTRATION
An advanced electrostatic lter is included with air purier to help keep the purier clean while at the same time ltering out
particles. Unlike expensive HEPA lters, the electrostatic lter is washable and can be used over and over again.
NEEDLEPOINT IONIZATION
The air purier generates a continuous stream of millions of negative ions that circulate throughout the home. These ions
charge particles (such as dust, dander or bacteria) causing them to attract other particles and clump together. As more and
more particles come together, they become heavier, making them easier to pull into the home’s HVAC air lter or just fall to
the oor to be vacuumed up. Unlike HEPA lters that can only lter out particles of .5 microns or larger, the ionizer in the air
purier can reduce ultra-ne, even nano particles, that are much more dangerous than the larger particles you can actually
see.
SCALABLE PURIFICATION
The unit can be easily adjusted to the preferred purication setting for your living area Using these settings provides optimum
performance and comfort. In High Mode, the purication plate generates activated oxygen to assist in breaking down pollutants
which cause odours. For faster sanitization, the unit can be set to Away Mode which is equipped with an auto shut-o timer and
can be used for maximum output when the room or home is unoccupied.
ADVANCED PHOTO CATALYTIC
Both the Advanced Photo Catalytic Oxidation (PCO) and Scalable Oxidation work to destroy biological contaminates as well
as odours, mold, bacteria and viruses. PCO Cells have been proven to reduce dangerous pathogens by more than 99% in less
than 24 hours through a process called molecular disassociation which actually breaks down the molecules instead of simply

covering up the source. Scalable Oxidation ensures your air purier will perform at the maximum eciency specic to its
environment at the time of use. In High Mode, the purication plate generates activated oxygen to assist in breaking down
contaminates which cause odours. For faster cleanup, the unit can be set to Away Mode which has a programmable auto-
shuto timer feature. This allows the machine to generate maximum output when the room or home is unoccupied.

SETUP
IDEAL PLACEMENT
There are several important factors to consider when selecting a location for your air purier:
• Make sure the location you choose is as far away from the HVAC air return duct as possible. This will ensure that the
purication produced by the air purier is optimally circulated.
• Place the unit on top of something tall such as a bookcase, a shelf or a mounting bracket, leaving only 30 to 60 cm
between the unit and the ceiling. Point the unit towards the centre of the room.
• To ensure the unit works properly, there should be as much space as possible in front of your air purier so that it can
eciently process the air in the area.
• Never place an operating unit on the oor.
• Nearest the source of the worst pollution.
INITIAL SETTING
Before using the unit you will need to nd the area (or square metres) of the environment. To do this accurately, take into
account all connected rooms with open doorways (the purication does not ow readily through closed doors).
The Air purier can purify up to 279 m2of space.
For example: Suppose you have a 232 m2house. The living room is attached to the kitchen, three bedrooms, the den and a
laundry room. The kitchen and three bedrooms’doors remain open the majority of the time but the laundry room and den
usually remain closed o from the rest of the house. Together, the laundry room and den have a combined area of 46 m2.
The area of the environment you would want to set your air purier and purify would be 186 m2.
Once you have determined an ideal location for your unit and calculated the area of the environment:
1. Connect the Power Cord into the unit.
2. Insert the Power Plug into the wall outlet.
3. Turn the unit on and set it to “NORMAL”mode (see “OPERATIONS”: page 7).
4. Leave the unit on “NORMAL” mode for at least 24 hours to begin with.
5. After 9 hours, set the unit to“HIGH”mode and set the square metres to 24 m2.
6. Gradually increase the square metres setting every 24 hours until you reach the accurate square metres of your area
which you calculated in the initial steps).
NOTE
Using the purier at a setting less than the m2of the area being treated is acceptable and may be desirable in an environment
relatively free of pollutants.
