HOW IT WORKS

When set to maximum airflow, the scrubber draws air through two types of filters- a Pre – Filter and a HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter.

1. Pre-Filter
   The first phase of filtration, the prefilter, captures initial dust and allergen particles.

2. HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter
   The second phase of filtration, the HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter, catches smaller particles, down to 0.3 microns. Contributes to the control and prevention of the growth of bacteria, germs, and mold. Captures 99.99% of dust and allergens.

3. UV-C Light (Note: Itis not available for Filteair HEPAV3)
   UV-C light technology works with filters to enhance the elimination of airborne germs Titanium
   Dioxide is activated by the UV-C light to decompose remaining odor molecules caused by smoking, cooking, and pets.

Note: The unit will turn on the UV-C light every 4 hours for 3 minutes each time to sterilize the inside of the equipment and the filter.

SPECIAL FEATURES

Daisy-Chain Capability
Using the auxiliary outlet on the control panel, you can link up to 3 units together. You can also daisy-chain the machines when they are stacked vertically (limit of 2 units).

Multi-Positional
The Filteair HEPAV1/V2/Vv3 can be operated in the vertical postion, as well as, when stacked vertically (up to 2 units). When storing, the machines can be stacked horizontally to save space.

Removable Intake Panel
The Filteair HEPA V1/V2/V3 is equipped with a removable panel on the intake side of the machine. The removable panel is quite useful in remediation applications, so you can draw air out the room and create more negative pressure (use a manometer to monitor airpressure). To use panel:

1. Remove the panel.
2. Install the machine outside the containment area to draw air out.
3. Cut a hole in the containment plastic that is the size of the unit’s inlet.
4. Insert the inlet into plastic and seal the circumference tightly with duct tape.

KEY FEATURES

SETUP

1. Place the Filteair HEPA V1/V2/v3 so thatitis in the upright, vertical position.
2. Plug the machine into a standard 115 volt outlet. Note: Each unit needs 3 amps to operate.
3. The Filteair HEPAV1/V2/V3 can be operated in the vertical or horizontal postion, depending on the exact situation. At this point, adjust the machine to the optimal position.

THE CONTROL PANEL

Variable Speed Control
The Variable Speed Control is used to adjust the power of the machine. Turn the knob in a clockwise direction, to increase the speed from maximum to minimum. The minimum speed setting is located immediately under the OFF button.

Auxiliary Outlet
If more air filtration is necessary for a space, you can”daisy chain” or link up to 3 Filteair HEPA V1/V2/V3’s to the same outlet. There is a maximum amperage of 12 when the units are turned off, a maxium of 9 amps when the units are turned on. Other equipment can be plugged into the same outlet as the Filteair HEPA V1/V2/v3 aslong as itdoesn’t go above the max amperage.

Circuit Breaker Switch
The Circuit Breaker Switch protects the unit if there are more than 12 amps of electricity passing the circuit. If this occurs, the switch will cut off the power to the unit.

Timer
Used to time the running time of the device. Start timing when the device is running, and pause timing when the device is stopped.

CHANGING THE FILTERS

1. Loosen the 4 locks that hold the filter board in place.
2. Slide out the filter panel board.
3. Remove the used filters and replace with new filters.

WARNING

• Always wear approved protective gear when changing the filters.
• Filters should be changed after each remediation job.
• If the indicator lightis on, always change the HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter.

APPLICATIONS

Water Damage
In this application, the Filteair HEPA V1/V2/v3 should be placed in the center of the affected area.
The air scrubber will draw in the air, filter it, then blow out the newly cleaned air. To begin the process, simply turn on the scrubber and it will start cleaning the air. Keep in mind that if you are working in a large area or one divided by walls, you may need several air scrubbers to effectively clean the air.

Odor Control
The Filteair HEPAV1/V2/V3 ,when used with the HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter, is excellent at odor control,as well. Simply place the carbon filter in the pre- filter slot and it will capture a wide variety of odor-causing gas molecules, such as volatile organic compounds (VOC’s), smoke, soot, and paint fumes.

Other Uses
The Filteair HEPA V1/V2/V3 is also useful in many other applications including mold remediation, fire damage, dust control, and sewage remediation.

WARNING

Breathing Hazard

• When using the Filteair HEPA V1/V2/V3 in a containment area, always turn off power to open combustion appliances, such as fireplaces, furnaces, water heaters, and HVAC systems, to avoid the risk of backdrafting carbon monoxide fumes.
• If the Filter Change Light iluminates during the remediation process, immediately change the HEPA/Activated Carbon Filter.

Tipping Hazard

• Use caution when stacking units.
• Do not stack more than 2 units on top of each other.
• Falling equipment could cause bodily harm.

SAFETY NOTES

• Always unplug the unit prior to performing any maintenance.
• Check the power cord for damage (fraying, cuts, etc.) before use.
• Verify that the GFCl outlet is working by powering on the machine and pressing the red G F C l test button. If the outlet is working, the“reset” button will pop up. To operate, press the reset button again.
• To avoid electric shock, never use a water hose or pressure washer to clean the electrical components.
• Check the pre-filter prior to operating the machine to ensure itis not clogged. If there is any sign of air flow restriction change the filter.
• Make sure the unitis dry prior to installing clean filters.
• When using the Filteair HEPA V1/v2/v3 forremediation purposes, replace both filters at the same time and always clean machine in between jobs. This will help prevent cross contamination.
  IMPORTANT NOTICE: Keep the item’s packaging in case warranty service is required.
