An Aprilaire whole-house air cleaner is installed by your heating and air conditioning contractor as one of the components in your heating and cooling system. It cleans the air that circulates through your home (see Figure 1). Common Pollutants Particle sizes in microns* (1 micron = 1/25,400 inch) *American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineering Guide 0.01 0.1 1 POLLENS & SPORES SMUDGING DUST SMOKE AIRBORNE BACTERIA 5 10 50 100 Figure 2 90-1148 Introduction When the heating or cooling equipment turns on, the air in your home travels through the registers and return duct(s) to the heating and cooling equipment where it is conditioned and sent back into the rooms of your house through the supply ducts. Small particles from numerous sources are suspended in your home’s air, just as they are suspended in the air outdoors. The largest of these particles will eventually come to rest and appear as dust. Smaller particles may come to rest, but with even the slightest disturbance will re-suspend into the air. These particles are very small, and come from natural sources such as dust and pollen and from manmade sources such as tobacco smoke or exhaust. The air cleaner is installed on or near the furnace/air handler and removes the particles that travel with the air that circulates through your heating and cooling system. Removing these particles keeps the equipment components clean and more importantly removes particles from the air you breathe. Particles are measured in microns, which is a unit of measure used for very small things (1 micron = 1/25,400 inch). For reference, the diameter of a human hair is approximately 100 microns. Figure 2 shows the size of various particles that can be found in the air. 2 oPErATIon oPErATIon Household dust is typically an accumulation of particles in a size range of .01 micron up to 100 microns. Pollens and spores, which can aggravate allergy symptoms, are usually in the 10-100 micron size range. The visible household dust particles, and nearly all pollen and spore particles, therefore, can be caught and permanently held, very easily, if you can get them to the air cleaner. With central high efficiency air cleaners, the blower of your heating/air conditioning system performs the air movement function. Until now the air cleaner has been a passive component of your heating and cooling system; when the equipment turned on to heat or cool your home, the air cleaner was functioning. Your thermostat turns on your heating and cooling equipment and so, essentially, the thermostat determined when your air cleaner operated. Your model 3210, 3310, or 3410 air cleaner comes with an exclusive Model 8476 programmable thermostat with Event-Based™ Air Cleaning that allows you to clean your air when desired. Not only does Event-Based™ Air Cleaning allow you to actively clean the air, it will show you when the air cleaner is filtering the air and when it is time to change the filter. Please see the Owner’s Manual included with the Model 8476 Thermostat for a detailed explanation. Many of the dust particles generated, while vacuuming, are so heavy they “fall” out of the airstream before they can be drawn out of your living area. This is why it is important to do household dusting several hours after vacuuming. Normally once the heavy particles “fall out”, they are only reintroduced to the air by vacuuming, or similarly vigorous activity. Where allergy symptoms, which are aggravated by pollens and spores, are a concern, continuous cleaning is strongly encouraged. To recap, when removing household dust is the major benefit you are seeking, you should operate your air cleaner during and following periods when dust is ...
