Page 15: Operation
Installation for HVAC System Scenting Operation The AirQ generates micro-droplets 1/100th the diameter of a human hair from a reservoir of liquid in a disposable cartridge. These micro-droplets behave like a vapor. They are passed through a silicon tube and injected into the airflow of the air handler using an injector tube that is installed in a hole in the ductwork. -
Page 16: Positioning The Machine
Positioning the Machine The AirQ 570 machine is mounted on a flat vertical surface — either a wall or on an air duct. The maimum run of the silicon injector hose between the Cartridge and the Injector Tube is 18”. The shortest possible run length is better. -

Page 41: Chapter 12: Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) How does AQ570 work? AQ570 uses a patented technology to convert liquid fragrance compounds into tiny droplets less than 1/100th the diameter of a human hair. By comparison, an aerosol droplet is 100 times bigger and 1,000,000 times heavier. AQ570 droplets present 100 times more surface area to the air being treated, which means much less fragrance is used to create the scent effect. - Page 42 How does AQ570 differ from aerosol room fresheners? The more expensive aerosols can produce a very pleasant scent, but only for a few minutes and in very high concentrations just in the area they were sprayed. AQ570 is what is known as a “continuous action”...
