PRODUCT INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Place the mounting template provided on the wall where the air purifier is to
be installed. If air purifier is being mounted high on the wall make sure the
top edge of the unit is positioned at least 8” inches (21 cm) below the
ceiling to allow for filter replacement (see Fig 2).
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): Be sure to follow all ADA
guidelines pertaining to “Objects protruding into a circulation path.” For

MOUNTING REAR HOUSING AND MAIN ASSEMBLY
Test the electrical outlet box first to ensure rated power requirements are
met before beginning installation.
Remove air purifier from its shipping carton and remove all packing material.
Place the air purifier face up on a flat, stable work surface. Open the access panel by pressing in latches on each side of the unit (Fig 3).
Open the access panel and remove filter assembly by pulling out on top of side edges of the frame, then lifting. NOTE: remove all plastic wrap from filters (Fig 4).
At the location of the two upper housing screws (Fig 5), insert a flat head
screwdriver and gently twist to the release tab as shown in Fig 7. This will
disconnect the main housing
assembly from the rear housing assembly.
Disconnect the main housing assembly from the rear housing assembly. Separate the main housing from the rear housing. Lift main housing assembly away from rear mounting housing (Fig 8).
REAR HOUSING INSTALLATION & WIRING
Reference rear housing and locate desired mounting location. Again, it is
strongly recommended at least 2 mounting anchors for the air purifier be
mounted to an existing stud.
Using provided template ensure the electrical outlet box is located behind cable hole (A) in the Rear Housing assembly (Fig 9). Drill holes and place anchors in the wall. If mounting on concrete, cinder block or brick-type walls route the wires through the “punch-out” hole marked (B) in Fig 9
Check for washers at all mounting screw locations (Fig 10). Pull wires from the electrical outlet box through the hole in the rear housing. Align housing over anchors and securely install all mounting screws.
Attach wires from the electrical outlet box to wires located inside the rear
housing using wire nuts. Match up line (black) and neutral (white) wires (Fig
11). Make sure
all connections are made in accordance with federal, state and local codes and
regulations.
MAIN ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid the risk of electrocution confirm the electrical supply
has been disconnected or switched off before continuing any installation work.
The power connector (B, in Fig 12) will carry power from the rear
housing to the main housing once the assemblies are fully seated. The main
assembly will attach to the rear housing assembly by the four screws
previously removed (Fig 5 & 6). Two snap hooks (A, in Fig 12) will hold the
main and rear assemblies together until the screws can be installed.
Carefully align the main assembly with the rear housing assembly. Slowly press into place until the snap is heard, and there is no gap between the assemblies (Fig 13). The unit should now support its own weight.
Install four screws (previously removed) to secure main assembly to the rear housing assembly (Fig 14 & 15).
RE-INSTALLING FILTERS
IMPORTANT: Make sure all plastic wrap is removed from the filters.
Make sure filters are in the correct order – pre-filter / carbon filter / HEPA
filter – and inserted into the filter frame (Fig 16).
IMPORTANT: Make sure filter detection area aligns with window in filter
frame (Fig 17). Open the front panel by pressing latches on both sides of the
unit. Allow the door to open fully. Insert filters
– IMPORTANT: make sure the filter detection window is aligned in the upper
right corner (Fig 18).
Close the front panel by pressing firmly until both sides’ latch is closed
(Fig 19).Once the unit is closed re-establish power.
Lights on the control panel will be visible through the lens, indicating the
unit is operational (Fig 20). The power light indicator
will flash once a second.
LOCKING ACCESS PANEL
To restrict access to the control panel and filters the unit can be locked.
To lock, insert the key provided and rotate clockwise ¼ turn (Fig 21).
