GENERAL SYSTEM INFORMATION  
Field Controls high efficiency series of media air cleaners are designed for installation into heating, ventilation,  
air conditioning (HVAC) systems to reduce the amount of airborne particulate (1.0 micron and larger) including  
pollen, dust and dander promoting better indoor air quality. The media air cleaner should be installed in the  
return air system duct, such that all of the circulated air passes through the filter. For maximum filtering  
performance, the air circulation fan should operate continuously.

CAUTION:  
Before installing a media filter into the HVAC system,  
the Qualified Agency must consider the additional  
pressure drop being added to the HVAC system.  
1. The filter must be installed on the return side of  
the HVAC system, between the return air duct  
and the intake of the system blower. NEVER  
install on the supply side of the HVAC system.  
2. The filter access panel MUST be installed where  
there is at least twenty-six (26) inches in front of it.  
This allows clearance for the replacement of the  
media filter.  
3. Some installations may require a duct transition.  
Transitions may be needed to reduce pressure  
drop and maintain appliance efficiency. The  
appliance must operate within the manufacturer’s  
recommended temperature and pressure drop  
requirements.  
4. Check the flow capacity and pressure drop  
(Figure 6) to determine the filter is properly sized.  
Figure 6  
INSTALLATION:  
WARNING: Always shut off the electrical power supply before working on the appliance.  
1. Refer to the typical mounting positions (Figures 1 to 5) for proper placement of the filter cabinet.  
2. Remove the metal filter cabinet from the carton and plastic bag.  
3. Remove the access panel door and pull the media filter (in plastic bag) out of the cabinet. DO NOT install the media  
filter with the plastic bag around it.  
4. Position cabinet so access panel is available for easy media filter replacement The access panel MUST be accessible  
to remove and replace the media filter. (Note: Minimum of twenty-six (26) inches for front clearance).  
5. Position the filter cabinet onto return air side of the appliance (Figures 1 to 5). Duct transitions may be required to  
properly mount the filter cabinet.  
6. When the filter cabinet is mounted directly to the appliance or existing duct, mark the inside opening of the filter cabinet  
and all 12 mounting screw locations.  
7. Drill the marked mounting holes with a 1/8 inch diameter drill bit. Remove the marked filter opening with metal cutting  
shears or equivalent.  
8. Attach filter cabinet to the appliance or duct work using #8 X 1/2 inch long sheet metal screws or pop rivets. Seal the  
housing connections with aluminum duct tape or equivalent.  
9. Remove media filter from the plastic bag and discard the plastic bag. TIP: Write the installation date on filter next to  
directional arrow for future filter replacement reference. The media filter MUST be installed WITHOUT the plastic bag.  
10. Install media filter into the filter cabinet.  
11. Install the filter cabinet access panel.  
12. Place appliance back into service. Appliance must operate within the appliance manufacturer’s recommended  
temperature and pressure drop requirements.

MAINTENANCE:  
The media filter MUST be replaced periodically. The  
reason is to maintain appliance operating efficiency  
by minimizing pressure drop through the HVAC  
system. The frequency of filter media replacement  
depends on the operational environment. The need  
for replacement is easily determined by a visual  
inspection. Note: For optimum performance, replace  
the media filter every 6 to 12 months.  
MEDIA FILTER REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE:  
1. Turn off electrical power to the HVAC system.  
2. Remove the filter cabinet access panel.  
Note: “AIR FLOW” directional arrow, located on  
existing media filter (Figure 6).  
3. Remove the existing filter media.  
4. Remove the new media filter from the plastic bag.  
Tip: Re-use plastic bag to discard the used  
media filter.  
5. Check media filter directional arrow ()! The  
directional arrow MUST point in the direction of  
air flow.  
Figure 7  
Tip: Write the installation date on media filter  
next to directional arrow for future filter  
replacement reference.  
6. Install the new media filter.  
7. Install the filter cabinet access panel.  
8. Turn on electrical power to the HVAC system.
