Introduction Thank you for purchasing the QuietFlo® Air Purification System from Hunter Fan Company. You have purchased our latest development in portable air purification which has been designed to improve the quality of the air that you breathe. The following innovative features are included in your Hunter Air Purifier. • High Particulate Efficiency: The HEPA filter will remove 99.97% of 0.3 micron particles from the air that passes through the filter. • Odor Removal: The activated carbon pre-filter helps remove odors such as cooking, smoke, and pet smells from the air. It also traps lint, hair, and other large particles to help extend the life and performance of the HEPA filter. • Ionizer: The ionizer improves the quality of air in the room by releasing negative ions into the air that attract positively charged dust, smoke, and pollen particles. • Quiet: The air purifier has been designed to operate quietly and efficiently. You can choose among three speeds to best meet your needs at different times. •Filter Counters: Filter maintenance is critical to the performance of the air purifier. To help you determine when to change the filters, the pre-filter and HEPA filter, the unit has built in life counters that keep track of the life remaining of each filter. 3 41913-01 41913-01_rev 10.14.05.pmd 3 10/14/05, 2:16 PM 41913-01 4 Description of Air Filtration System .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... ....
