Turning Vanes
If the air cleaner is installed close to an elbow or angle
fitting, install turning vanes inside the angle to distribute
airflow more evenly across the face of the cell. See Fig. 5.
Offsets
If the duct connection to the furnace in a side installa-
tion allows less than 7 in. [178 mm] for mounting the air
cleaner cabinet, add an offset to the elbow. See Fig. 5.

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD.
CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK
OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
Do not connect to power before installation is
complete.
UNPACK ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER
Check that all components are included. The electronic
air cleaner is shipped assembled. The unit consists of a
galvanized steel cabinet, power supply with on-off switch
and neon light, one or two electronic cells and prefilters,
access door with test button, and homeowner literature
package.
W8600E (optional), mounting hardware and installa-
tion literature must be ordered separately.
CLEAN BLOWER COMPARTMENT
Remove and discard the existing furnace filter.
Thoroughly clean the blower compartment.

1 TURNING VANES HELP DISTRIBUTE AIRFLOW EVENLY.
If possible, power vacuum the ductwork to remove
accumulated dust in an existing home, or construction dirt
in a new home. The electronic air cleaner cannot remove
dust that has settled in the blower compartment and distri-
bution ducts.
Check the edges of the furnace fan blades for dirt
buildup and clean as necessary. The fan will not deliver the
rated cfm if the blades are dirty.
FASTEN CABINET TO FURNACE
NOTE: This procedure shows a side installation on a
typical highboy furnace. You may need to alter the
procedure to fit your application.
Remove and set aside the access door, electronic cell(s)
and prefilter(s).
Align the cabinet with the return air opening.
Create opening in furnace to match air cleaner cabinet
opening.
Install a transition when the furnace and air cleaner
openings are different sizes. See Fig. 4.
Place blocks under the cabinet so the unit is firmly
supported and level. The 5/8 in. [16 mm] mounting foot on
the cabinet hinge plate provides the minimum clearance
required for the access door hinge.
Attach the cabinet securely to the furnace. The unit can
be attached directly, as shown, or a starting collar can first
be fitted in the furnace opening. Either drill holes and
fasten with sheet metal screws or rivets, or use slip joints.
See Fig. 6.
