General Information
Media Filters
The HEPA System’s 3 Stage Filtration Process
The 3 stage filtration process is used to create a very
effective filtration system. Each filter is independent
and can be changed individually.
Media filters strain particulates from the air. The filter
media needs to have tiny holes to allow air to pass
through, but not particulates. Filter types vary for all
sorts of purposes. The most effective and proven filter
media is HEPA. HEPA filter media is 99.97% efficient
at capturing particles which are 0.3 micron in size or
larger.
•
Stage 1: Carbon pre-filter - The inexpensive carbon
pre-filter removes larger particulates from the air, thus
prolonging the life of the HEPA filter.
•
Stage 2: HEPA - The HEPA filter removes 99.97%
Inner Charcoal Filter/Carbon Canister
of particulates 0.3 micron and larger. The cleaned air
then passes through the third stage filter.
Carbon media is used to capture chemicals and odors,
also referred to as V.O.C.’s. Chemicals and odors
cannot be captured with media type filters. Activated
carbon attracts chemicals and odors and holds them.
If air passes through the carbon filter before particu-
lates are removed, the surface of the carbon quickly
gets covered with particulates, rendering it ineffec-
tive at capturing chemicals and odors. If particulates
are removed from the air with a HEPA filter, virtually
the entire surface area of the carbon can be used to
capture chemicals and odors. This increases the effi-
ciency and filter life of the inner charcoal filter.
•
Stage 3: Inner Charcoal Filter - The inner charcoal
filter is 1/2 an inch thick to give it plenty of surface
area for removing chemicals and odors from the air.
OPTIONAL UPGRADE: The stage 3 Inner Carbon
Filter may be replaced by an optional heavy duty
granulated coconut shell carbon canister. The VOC
Canister offers increased capacity removal of chemi-
cals and odors. Filled with granulated coconut shell
carbon, the surface area available for adsorption of
gas and chemical pollution is approximately 60 to
70 million square feet. The filter upgrade captures
many contaminents in the air and holds them safely in
the carbon. The increased capacity of this filter also
extends the performance life. The VOC Canister also
captures low level ozone from outside air and uses
the ozone to turn the filter into an active system which
actually destroys VOCs rather than just holding them.
Separate HEPA and Carbon Filters
HEPA and carbon filters have different life spans. It is
important for a filtration system to keep the filter com-
ponents independent from each other, so that the filter
that is dirty/saturated can be changed. This is more
economical than a system where you need to throw
out two or three filters when only one needs changing.

* Chart based on homes with 8 ft. ceilings.
Notes:
• Industry experience indicates that one (1) air change per hour generally provides adequate air cleaning. Actual
results will depend on multiple factors such as outdoor particulate levels, infiltration rate, indoor activities etc.
• The chart is based on an infiltration rate of 0.3 air changes per hour, which is typical for residential construction.
Higher infiltration typically brings in more particulates and thus increases the air changes per hour needed for
HEPA bypass filtration. Other particulate sources in the house will require higher air changes per hour.
• The chart is based on continuous operation of the HEPA system. If the HEPA system is cycled, the capacity
of the filter needs to be increased. For example, if the HEPA system is “ON” only half the time, then the capac
ity of the unit needs be doubled or additional units need to be installed.
• The more air changes per hour provided, the more effective a HEPA system will be. People with sensitivities
may desire a higher number of air changes per hour for cleaner air.

Proper care and maintenance of your HEPA system
Filter Changing Guidelines
will ensure years of service. The unit must be turned
off during service/maintenance or when filters are
being changed.
Carbon Pre-Filter:
Dust and other large particles will collect on the car-
bon pre-filter over time. The color of the filter will
change as particulates build up on the carbon pre-filter.
Change the carbon pre-filter when you can see the par-
ticulate build up start to clog up the carbon pre-filter.
It is recommended that gloves and a filtered
breathing mask be worn during filter replacement.
!

e. Unroll the inner charcoal filter and roll it up in the
opposite direction (this makes the filter follow a
more contoured profile against the inner HEPA
filter surfaces and helps keep it in place), place
the rolled inner charcoal filter inside the HEPA
cartridge and gently unroll it until the ends ‘butt’
together and the filter is snug against the HEPA
filter mesh.
Avoid grasping equipment edges without protective
gloves.
It is recommended that gloves and a filtered
breathing mask be worn during filter replacement
to avoid breathing particulates (dust, mold, pollen,
etc.) captured on the filter that become airborne
during the filter(s) changeout.
The old filters should be wrapped and sealed in
plastic bags immediately upon removal from the
unit to avoid distributing particles throughout the
house during the process of disposal.

Preparation:
Here are some things to consider as you decide where
to install the HEPA system.
• Each connection must be sealed with aluminum
tape or mastic, including all take offs.
• Installed duct runs should be as straight as possible
(if the duct runs are too long, reduced CFM may
result).
• If duct is exposed to unconditioned air, externally
insulated flex duct is highly recommended.
• Externally insulated flex duct can also be used for
noise reduction purposes
• For best indoor air quality, do not use ductboard or
fiberglass inside of ducts.

Forced air handler/furnace system with an HRV/ERV
This application provides filtration of all Outdoor Air (OA) that is brought into the home through the HRV/ERV,
thus reducing the introduction of dust, pollen and mold from the outdoor air. For systems that have HRV/ERV
units installed, we recommend ducting the ‘fresh air’ outlet from the HRV/ERV into the HEPA system. If the
HRV/ERV CFM (cubic feet per minute) rating is lower than that of the HEPA system, an additional return needs
to be installed into the HEPA system (See figure 8.) The output air from the HEPA system then needs to be
installed into the main return of the air handler/furnace system.

Independent Operation:
The HEPA systems can be used independently of any other equipment! The inlet and outlet of the filtration
system can be ducted into the same room to create a cleaner environment almost anywhere. The inlet or outlet
can also be ducted elsewhere. The inlet and outlet should be installed on opposite sides of the room; however,
this varies according to your specific needs.
Example of Single Room Stand Alone System Installation
For single rooms where increased filtration is desired such as a
dedicated ‘smoking room’.
