UV-Aire® Air Purification System

Installation


1. Insert the unit downstream from an A-coil in the supply plenum or downstream from the air filter in the return plenum. Mount base on duct using the enclosed mounting screws.
2. Insert lamp through hole. Place bracket over end of tube and tighten wing nut.
3. Replace cover on unit and tighten side screw.
4. Plug into 120V outlet & place rocker switch in “ON” position.
5. Switch will illuminate & blue glow can be seen through view port when unit is operating properly.
ALWAYS wear protective goggles to shield your eyes from UV damage when installing the UV-Aire.

UV-C can break down plastic material that is not UV resistant. Based on lab tests, positioning the lamp 30 inches or more away from plastic surfaces such as flex duct, drain pans, etc. will prevent any measurable break down.

Installation Options


The UV-Aire can be installed in ducts nine inches and larger. Each unit comes with a duct board mounting kit and a patent-pending angle bracket. A dual lamp model is available for commercial applications and/or increased potency. There is also a model designed specifically for heat pumps and a model for outdoor installations.

Good: Standard Installation

Better: Patented Angled Installation - Single Lamp

Best: Two Angled Lamps or Two Lamps Perpendicular

Note: When multiple lamps are used, spacing between lamps should be at least four inches. Angle option allows longer lamps to fit in smaller ducts.

Maintenance

    

Cleaning

  

Replacement Parts
The UV-Aire intensity output is at optimal levels when the UV lamp is clean. As buildup of dust increases, the lamp’s intensity decreases. To maintain maximum benefits, lamps should be cleaned regularly.

Lamps should be wiped with a clean cloth dampened with alcohol or ammonia and water in order to eliminate oil, dirt, and fingerprints. Conditions of the application will dictate how often lamps need to be cleaned.		   To maintain maximum benefits, lamps should be replaced annually. It is important that lamps be replaced when the ultraviolet output falls below minimum requirements for protection. Even though a lamp will appear to be operating effectively because it still maintains the visible blue glow, the ultraviolet output will be significantly reduced after 9000 hours of use.
It is recommended to clean the lamps at least every six months.   UV-Aire Germicidal Lamps
