PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Location
The media air cleaner should be installed where all the air
passing through the system is circulated through it. The best
location is in the return air duct next to the blower compartment
so the media air cleaner can help to keep the blower motor and
evaporator coils clean. Do not mount in the supply air duct.
For most efficient air cleaning, spread airflow evenly across the
face of the media. If the duct is a different size than the media
air filter cabinet, gradual transitions are required. If the duct
turns sharply just before the air filter, turning vanes are
required.
Choose a location that is readily accessible for checking and
replacing the filter. Allow at least 26 in. (660 mm) clearance in
front of the unit for removal of the cartridge.
Install the media air filter where the temperature will not
exceed the ratings in the Specifications.

Applications With Air Conditioning

Mount the media air cleaner upstream of the evaporator coil in
a cooling system. The filter will help to keep the coil clean and
reduce maintenance.

Applications With A Humidifier

The media air cleaner is compatible with humidifiers. Avoid
applications where water mist will reach the media. If an
atomizing humidifier is used, the filter media will require
replacement more often because of minerals in the water.

Choose Mounting Position

The media air cleaner can be mounted in any position, but the
arrow on the cartridge must point in the same direction as the
airflow. See Figs. 4-11 for proper location of the media air
cleaner for a variety of furnace installations. Note that the
media air cleaner cabinet is sturdy enough to easily support
the weight of the furnace and evaporator coil. See Fig. 5.
