Optional Air Booster Activator
For automatic, year-round
operation of Air Boosters.
How Air Boosters Work
Field Air Boosters improve air flow and distribution of conditioned air to "problem" rooms in homes and businesses.
They are mounted in ductwork and increase air flow by up to 1400 cfm, improving heating/cooling system efficiency,
and saving energy. There are nine models designed for round or square ducts up to 14" in diameter.
• Increase air flow to problem rooms from 80 CFM
to 1400 CFM depending on model
• Designed for use in 4", 5", 6", 8", 10", 12" and 14"
round metal or flexible ductwork
• Easy installation
• Heavy-duty motor
• Motor is designed for years of trouble free
operation

Furnace
Air Booster
Air Boosters are typically wired parallel with the furnace or air conditioner blower. When the blower activates, the Air
Booster will activate. The Air Booster can also be wired to an on/off switch to provide additional air flow only when
needed. For remote locations, where wiring into the furnace is not practical, the Air Booster Activator (ABA-1) is available.
The ABA-1 senses an air pressure change in the duct when the blower activates and starts the Air Booster.
