Description

The Daikin One Premium Air Cleaner is an in-line air cleaner that treats home air for airborne particulate matter and chemicals found in the home. The high- efficiency MERV 15 media filter removes more than 85% of particles down to 0.3 microns in size at rated flow. The Daikin One Premium Air Cleaner also includes a room temperature catalyst (RTC) insert that helps remove formaldehyde and ozone from the air stream.

WARNING!
This symbol indicates important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
This symbol indicates important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.
WARNING!
Before beginning any installation or modification, be certain that the mainline electrical disconnect switch is in the OFF position. Unexpected start-up of system blower may cause serious injury. Tag disconnect switch with suitable warning labels.
CAUTION!
Installation:

• Only trained personnel should install this unit (see a warning on cover page).
• Homeowners can perform the basic maintenance functions of replacing filters.
  See Handling, Storage, and Disposal of Replacement Filters

WARNING!
Risk of Carbon Monoxide. Do not use this air cleaner without the cabinet door installed. If the cabinet ddoor is not installed, there is a risk that exhaust fumes may be drawn into occupied spaces, which can cause injury or death.
WARNING! This air cleaner utilizes very strong magnets to fasten the cabinet door. Magnets may interfere with pacemakers and Implantable Cardiac Defibrillators (ICDs).
WARNING! Do not ingest magnets; ingested magnets can cause serious intestinal injury.
CAUTION! This air cleaner utilizes industrial strength magnets. Hold front door panel with both hands when removing or replacing door to avoid pinching fingers between door and cabinet.

Handling, Storage, and Disposal of Replacement Filters.
Storage of Replacement Room Temperature Catalyst Insert
When working on the air cleaner, observe precautions in the Owner’s Manual labels attached to the furnace or air handler, and other safety precautions that may apply. · Always use personal protective equipment that is clean and has been properly maintained.

• Always use safety glasses

• Always use work gloves that is resistant to chemical agents
  – Recommended Natural latex.

• Always use a disposable half-mask dust filter.

• Avoid contact with eyes.

• Avoid skin contact.

• Avoid breathing dust.

• Never eat, drink or smoke in the area where you are replacing the filters.

• Always wash hands and face thoroughly after handling.

CAUTION! Potassium iodide exposure may cause skin irritation, serious eye irritation and damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure (if swallowed). Do not breathe dust/fume/ gas/mist/vapours/spray.

• If on the skin; Remove contaminated clothing and wash the skin thoroughly with water – If the contaminated area is widespread and/or there is damage to the skin, seek medical attention.
• If in the eyes; Rinse thoroughly with fresh, clean water holding the eyelids open. Remove contacts lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
• If there is any redness, pain, or visual impairment, consult an ophthalmologist.
• In an event of swallowing, seek medical attention immediately. Do NOT give the patient anything orally. If the swallowed quantity is small (no more than one mouthful), rinse the mouth with water and consult a doctor.

Important: Read and save these instructions. This guide is to be left with the equipment owner.

Storage of Replacement Room Temperature Catalyst Insert and MERV 15 filter

• Keep away from any chemicals (solvents and strong oxidizers).
• Keep away from heat sources.
• Prevent dust generation
• Store in a well-ventilated area.
• Keep the package tightly closed and away from dampness and humidity.

Disposal of Replacement Room Temperature Catalyst Insert and MERV 15 filter

• Dispose of in accordance with national, state and local regulations. Disposal requirements are dependent on the hazard classification and will vary by location and the type of disposal selected.
• Do not contaminate the ground or water with waste; do not dispose of waste into the environment.

Installation

IMPORTANT: This air cleaner may cause more of a restriction on the airflow in the air-handling system than a standard 1″ equipment filter, because of its increased efficiency. As the filter collects particulates, the pressure drop increases, and airflow through the filter decreases. This air cleaner is not recommended where added pressure drop would cause operational problems with the heating and cooling equipment.
Location
This air cleaner is adaptable to unitary residential forced-air heating or cooling systems. It is designed to be installed in the return air duct close to the blower compartment of the furnace or air handler. This location provides the evenest air flow across the filter helping to keep the system motor and fan clean.
To improve the performance of the air cleaner, these simple steps are recommended:

• Run your heating/cooling system fan continuously, on low speed if available, since the air cleaner only removes particulate matter when the system fan is operating.
• Ensure there are no obstructions to airflow (for example, from furniture or carpets) in front of the return air grilles so that air moves freely to the heating/cooling equipment.

WARNING! Turn off the heating and cooling system fan before performing maintenance to the air cleaner.

General Installation Steps

1. Remove existing equipment filter (if present) and clean blower compartment: Thoroughly clean the blower compartment, since the air cleaner cannot remove accumulated dirt from the blower chamber and distribution ducts.

2. Leave sufficient room around the air cleaner: There must be adequate room to remove and replace the filter from the air cleaner cabinet.

3. Transitions: If the air duct does not fit the air cleaner opening, a gradual transition is recommended to reduce air turbulence through the air cleaner and ensure its efficient operation. A maximum of 20° of expansion, or approximately 4 inches per running foot (10 cm per 30 cm), is recommended for each side of the transition fitting. Note: Do not reduce ductwork size to fit a smaller air cleaner. This will increase the velocity of airflow and may decrease cleaning efficiency.

4. Turning vanes: If the air cleaner is installed adjacent to an elbow or angle fitting, field-installed turning vanes are recommended to improve air distribution across the filter.

5. Remove the door: When removing or replacing the door, hold the outer door panel with both hands. The door has industrial strength magnets in it which can pinch fingers if caught between door and cabinet.

6. Remove filters: remove filters (MERV 15 & RTC) from cabinet

7. Install the cabinet: Attach cabinet to furnace and filter riser, air handler or Furnace plenum with the ten self-tapping hex head screws provided. Note the direction of flow indicated on the top and bottom of the cabinet.

8. Seal the joints in the return air system: All joints and seams between the air cleaner, the heating/cooling equipment, and the return air duct should be sealed with aluminum tape or mastic to prevent dust from entering the clean air stream.

9. Replace filters and door: After attaching the cabinet and sealing all joints, reinstall filters (note the direction of flow). Reinstall the door, making sure it is properly seated. Remove the plastic bag before installing the room temperature catalyst (RTC) insert.

10. Adjust Daikin Badge: If a different orientation is needed, slide the badge up and pull it out of the door. Rotate to proper orientation and reinstall.
