Dynamic V8 Air Cleaner

Choosing a Mounting Location

When deciding on a location ensure the air cleaner and indoor unit are placed an
adequate distance from heat sources or steam.

Support Strength

Ensure the mounting location can support the weight of the air cleaner, accessories,
and fi eld-provided ductwork.

Maintenance Access

For easiest access to the air cleaner media, remotely locate the air cleaner rela-
tive to the LG indoor unit and specify the plenum/grille assembly. The plenum,
in conjunction with the return-air grille, is designed to allow access to the media
pads without removing the ceiling tiles or accessing the ceiling plenum area.
If the return air plenum grille accessory is used, the proposed location the return
air grille should accommodate fully opening the hinged access grille.
If the air cleaner is mounted in a manner where return air ductwork is not used,
verify an area 47" x 23" x housing height directly behind the air cleaner is free of
obstructions. Refer to the cutsheets for service area dimensions.

Plenum Area Clearance

Ensure the plenum area has ample horizontal room for all air cleaners, return air
plenums, and fi eld fabricated ducting for the chosen confi guration.
Ensure the plenum area has ample vertical room for the chosen air cleaner(s).

Return Air Grille Location

Ensure the return-air-grille mounting location is in an area that encourages air
circulation in the conditioned space.
Ensure the mounting location is free of any high-frequency electronic noise that
might affect the operation of the air cleaner.
Ensure return-air-plenum grille housings or extensions are aligned with the t-bar
ceiling grid below where the return-air grille will reside.
Locate the return-air plenum and grille fi rst, followed by the connection of the air
cleaner plenums to the grilles, and air cleaner housing(s) to each mounted
plenum.

• Locations to Avoid

In restaurants and kitchens, ensure that installed hoods and ventilation systems
are suffi cient to keep oil, smoke, and steam away from the return-air grille.
Avoid installation into areas with oil based or conductive particulate loads.
Avoid installation in environments where acidic or corrosive gasses are present.
Violating these guidelines will shorten fi lter media lifespan dramatically.
