Household dust is typically an accumulation of particles in a size
range of .01 micron up to 100 microns.
range of .01 micron up to 100 microns.
Pollens and spores, which can
aggravate allergy symptoms, are usually in the 10-100 micron size range.
The visible household dust particles, and nearly all pollen and spore
particles, therefore, can be caught and permanently held, very easily,
if you can get them to the air cleaner. With central high efficiency air
cleaners, the blower of your heating/air conditioning system performs
the air movement function.
Until now the air cleaner has been a passive component of your
heating and cooling system; when the equipment turned on to heat
or cool your home, the air cleaner was functioning. Your thermostat
turns on your heating and cooling equipment and so, essentially, the
thermostat determined when your air cleaner operated. Your model
3210, 3310, or 3410 air cleaner comes with an exclusive Model 8476

Many of the dust particles generated, while vacuuming, are so heavy
they “fall” out of the airstream before they can be drawn out of
your living area. This is why it is important to do household dusting
several hours after vacuuming. Normally once the heavy particles “fall
out”, they are only reintroduced to the air by vacuuming, or similarly
vigorous activity.
Where allergy symptoms, which are aggravated by pollens and spores,
are a concern, continuous cleaning is strongly encouraged.
To recap, when removing household dust is the major benefit you
are seeking, you should operate your air cleaner during and following
periods when dust is being generated or “stirred up”. For pollens and
spores which aggravate an allergy condition, your cleaner must be
operated continuously when these pollutants are in the environment.
The air cleaner can only be effective when air containing the
contaminants is drawn through the filtering media.

Filtering Media which you can do in a few
minutes. The frequency of replacement will vary with operation time,
the number of particles generated in the home and is affected by:
number of people and their activities, the amount of carpeting, pets,
size of home, number of smokers, the pollution level of the area.

Aprilaire recommends replacing the media each year. However, if
you do not run your blower continuously the media may last up to
two years. Air conditioning systems larger than 3.5 tons, or heating
systems larger than 130,000 BTUs per hour (1400 cfm), will require
more frequent attention if operated continuously.
