THE ALLERAIR AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM

ACTIVATED CARBON

Your AllerAir air purifier contains activated carbon that permanently traps dangerous airborne chemicals, gases and odors. This vital filter should be changed approximately every two to three years, depending on the environment in which the unit is operating. You can also upgrade your Exec, Vocarb or D unit at any time to accommodate a larger and deeper carbon filter suitable for removing heavier concentrations of chemicals, gases and odors.

PRE-FILTER

The pre-filter included with your unit removes larger particles and helps prolong the life of your HEPA filter. The pre-filer should be vacuumed or replaced every three months.

**SUPER-HEPA***

HEPA filters are widely recommended by allergists, doctors and indoor air quality experts for home and office use. The robust and flexible Super-HEPA in AllerAir units traps 99.9% of fine particles at 0.1 microns in size, including dust, hair, pollen and even some bacteria and viruses. Depending on the particle level in the environment in which the unit is used, your HEPA filter should be replaced every three to five years.

“Note that a pleated HEPA filter is also available. Contact AllerAir or check our website for more information.

THE ALLERAIR ADVANTAGE

• Our units offer complete air filtration removing airborne chemicals, gases, odors and particles.
• Our deep bed, activated carbon filters last longer than the average thin filter which is generally carbon sprayed onto a synthetic material.
• Our units do not use dangerous ozone technology
• Our units are manufactured to clean your air and therefore are not made with a plastic housing, or other materials which may off-gas chemicals. Our units are powered by American-made motors that are energy efficient and cost only pennies a day to operate.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

PLANNING ON PAINTING YOUR HOME? READ THIS FIRST

Particles from paint may clog your HEPA filter, therefore we recommended that users unplug their units and remove the HEPA filter, storing it off-site until the paint job is complete. Due to the serious toxic nature of paint it is also recommended that your carbon filter be replaced or refilled in the weeks after the paint job is complete. See, Replacing HEPA and/or carbon filters, for instructions on how
