OPERATION
Transporting the Air Scrubber
The Air Scrubber should be transported vertically or horizontally on the appropriate feet located on the bottom of the
unit or opposite the handle
Electrical Requirements
The Air Scrubber can be plugged into a grounded 15 Amp circuit. It draws about 2 Amps with clean lters and no
ducting. The amp draw will decrease slightly with added ducting and as the lters load with particulate. Due to the
presence of GFCI receptacle, the Pro model must be plugged directly into a wall outlet. No extension cords should
be used.
Air Ducting
A. Inlet Ducting
Occasionally the area to be ltered is dicult to access and/ or the unit cannot be located in the area. In such
cases, the air can be ducted to the unit’s inlet. A round 16” diameter exible duct can be attached to the unit inlet.
It connects by placing the wire in the duct over the duct collar lip at one location and working over it over the lip
gradually. It may be removed after use for easier transport and storage. Flexible 16” duct is available from.
B. Outlet Ducting
A detachable trapazoid shaped exhaust ring is supplied that will allow 10” round lay-at plastic duct to be attached
to the Air Scrubber outlet. Lay-at plastic ducting is available from. To attach ducting to the collar, remove the
ring from the unit by pressing release tab at the top of the grill. Put the plastic duct end through the inside of the
ring. Roll the duct end outward so that it over-laps the outside of the ring. Clip the ring back onto the exhaust grill.
C. Negative Air Ducting
The Air Scrubber can be used to lter and exhaust air from a space. When exhausting to outside the space, the
space will be under a slight negative pressure. This will help prevent airborne particles from leaving the space,
because the negative pressure will draw air in through openings in the space’s exterior surfaces.
OWNER’S MANUAL AAS800 AIR SCRUBBER

OPERATION
CAUTION
CAUTION: Exhausting too much air from a space with open combustion devices (e.g. furnace, replace or
water heater) can cause those devices to backdraft. This can contaminate the space with potentially fatal
gases.
In such cases, the Air Scrubber must be used in one of the following three ways:
A. As a ltering unit only. Exhausting no air from the space and thus causing no negative pressure or backdrafting.
B. Exhausting a very limited amount of air which does not cause backdrafting. In case B, the open combustion
devices must be thoroughly checked to guarantee that they do not backdraft while the Air Scrubber is running.
C. Direct the outlet duct from the Air Scrubber to the room with the open combustion device(s). This will positively
pressurize the room with HEPA ltered air, thus preventing backdrafting. As in case B, those combustion devices
must be checked after the Air Scrubber is running to guarantee that they are not backdrafting.
Power/Speed Control
The power/speed switch is located on the control panel. When turned on to any speed, it powers the impeller fan.
Occasionally the impeller fan may not start on low speed. If this occurs, rotate the speed control to high speed until
the impeller fan starts, then adjust it to a lower speed.
CAUTION
CAUTION: Do not remove HEPA lter with the unit on. Removing the top and lters while running will expose
the dangerous rotating impeller fan. Disconnect the appliance before changing lters.

OPERATION
Resettable Circuit Breaker
The 12 AMP thermal response resettable circuit breaker protects the unit and devices connected to its duplex GFCI
outlet. The circuit breaker is designed to sense the total current draw through the circuit.
The circuit breaker "trips" when more than 12 amps of electrical current are drawn through the device's power
cord. Should an over-current condition occur, the Air Scrubber on-board circuit breaker prevents nuisance visits to a
remote power junction box.
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT: Total amperage of the GuardianR plus all devices plugged into the receptacle must not exceed
12 amps. The circuit breaker will not allow for loads in excess of 12 amps, although there is a time delay
before the overloaded circuit is broken.
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT: When the GuardianR is plugged into a standard "powered" wall outlet the GuardianR's duplex
outlet is electrically "HOT" and AC voltage is present.
GFCI Protection and the On-Board Duplex VAC Outlet
The standard AC voltage outlet GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection promotes operator safety in wet
applications. GFCI devices trip when a fault to electrical "ground" is sensed.
It is recommended to check the GFCI protection prior to operation. To check, push the "TEST" button located on
the GFCI duplex outlet. If operating properly the "RESET" button on the GFCI outlet will pop out. A tripped GFCI
is indicated by a small LED. The device can only be "RESET" when the Air Scrubber is connected to a wall outlet
providing standard voltage. This duplex AC outlet allows the inter-connection of other AC powered devices. The sum
total amperage of all devices plugged into the receptacle must not exceed 10 amps.
Servicing
Before each use inspect for damage, blocked inlet or outlet.
Inspect the GFCI to ensure it is not in a "tripped" condition. Push "RESET" to reset the GFCI. When the Air Scrubber
is rst turned on, check for excessive vibration. If the unit vibrates excessively or if impeller rubs on housing, turn o
the unit immediately. Have a service technician inspect the unit to locate the problem.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Use extreme caution when changing the HEPA lter as hazardous material could be trapped in the media.
Always make sure to dispose of lters in the appropriate way. If you are unsure of how to safely dispose of
any lter-consult an industrial hygienist to ensure that all hazardous materials are contained and disposed
of properly.
Air Filters
The standard Air Scrubber HEPA System is equipped with two lters that progressively lter out smaller particles. An
optional activated carbon/potassium permanganate lter can be also added. These lters must be checked regularly.
Operating the unit with dirty lters will reduce the airow, but will do no harm to the unit. The unit can be run indenitely
with dirty lters. The two standard lters used are listed below (as installed in the unit from top to bottom):
A. 25 to 30% ecient (per ASHRAE 52.1-1992), MERV-7, pleated fabric pre-lter.
B. 99.97% DOP ecient HEPA lter.
Filter replacement
When the amber “lter change light” illuminates. It may be time to replace one or both lters.
To check airow accurately, an airow meter or anemometer must be used:
When the lter change light illuminates; remove all ducting and run on high speed. if the lter light remains lit;
replace the pre-lter and run on high again. If the light remains; it is time to replace the HEPA lter for full 500 CFM
performance.
Airow on high speed with all lters clean and no ducting is slightly over 500 CFM. The unit can be run with very dirty
lters and virtually no ow without harming the unit. The operator’s decision to change lters should be based on lter
cost vs. the unit’s ltering eectiveness. If airow is 250 CFM vs. 500 CFM, the unit will lter particles from a space at
half the rate. The operator must judge if that is acceptable. If the operator determines the lters should be changed
due to low airow, it is most economical to change them in the following order:
Change the pre-lter (top) rst. This is the least expensive lter. Recheck the airow. If the airow is acceptable, no
other lters need to be changed. If the airow is still too low, the HEPA lter must be changed. To remove the HEPA
lter, follow these steps:
1. Loosen the eight screws one revolution
2. Rotate all eight clips out of the way.
3. Remove old lter.
4. Installing the new lter is the reverse of these instructions
OWNER’S MANUAL AAS800 AIR SCRUBBER

MAINTENANCE
Optional Activated Carbon/Potassium Permanganate Filters They use a blend of activated carbon and
potassium permanganate.
This blend removes the vast majority of gaseous contaminants encountered in most ltering applications. The
activated carbon removes the heavier volatile organics while the potassium permanganate removes lower molecular
weight contaminants. This is well suited to the smoke odors present after re damage.
The life of the media blend depends upon both the hours used and the contamination level. Another advantage of the
blended media versus activated carbon only is that part of the blend changes color as it loads up with contaminants.
It starts out black, then turns pink, then brown, and nally white. It is best changed when it passes the brown stage
and begins to turn white. It has lost most of its eectiveness at that point. The lter is the same size as the pleated
fabric lter. Install it in place of the pleated fabric lter.
