Ozone and the electronic air cleaner
Electronic air cleaners generate a very small amount
of ozone, about 0.005 to 0.010 parts per million (ppm).
The amount is highest when the air cleaner is new.
The average person can detect the odor of ozone in
concentrations as low as 0.003 to 0.010 ppm. The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, and Health and
Welfare Canada recommend that indoor ozone
concentration should not exceed 0.050 ppm. As a
comparison, the outdoor ozone level in major cities is
sometimes higher than 0.100 ppm.
If desired, the ozone generated by the air cleaner can
be reduced by asking your dealer to:
• Install an activated carbon filter downstream of the
air cleaner, or
• Adjust the air cleaner power supply to reduce ozone
production.This adjustment reduces ozone
production about 20-25 percent, but also reduces
air cleaning efficiency about seven to ten percent.
About lint or “white dust"
White dust is made up of particles that settle out of the
air before they get to the return air duct. You can help
prevent this white dust from settling by running your
fan constantly and:
• Be sure the return registers are not blocked with
furniture.
• Be sure the discharge ducts are clean (best done
before installing the air cleaner).
• Be sure your clothes dryer is vented to the outside
and is not plugged.
• If you have new rugs or drapes or new woolen
blankets, be aware that the lint from these items
will reduce with age.
• In new or remodeled homes, plaster dust or paint
pigment may contribute to white dust, but will
reduce with time.
• Use of a humidifier may contribute to white dust,
especially if filled with undistilled water.
