Introduction and Application
Your Ultravation® ProgressiveMedia Air Cleaner is a high efficiency air filtration sys-
tem designed to remove dirt, dust, pollen, and other microscopic particles from the air
that circulates through it. By adding it to your HVAC system, you are creating a clean-
er indoor living environment for your whole household.
The filter works by trapping particles in its pleats and fibers. The filter is layered with
progressively tighter density from the air entry to exit. It captures the largest particles
early and increasingly smaller particles through its thickness. By holding dirt in
its entire thickness and because of its extra large surface area, Ultravation®
ProgressiveMedia™ has extremely high dirt holding capacity, so you will enjoy very
long useful filter life. Its size and layered construction also creates minimial air flow
restriction, enhancing HVAC system efficiency.
This media air cleaner is designed to be installed in a forced air heating, cooling
and ventilation system. It should be installed so that all the system air is circulated
through the filter. The air cleaner will only filter the air that is circulated through it.
For maximum filtration effect, set your blower to operate continuously.

We recommend that this unit be installed and maintained by a trained HVAC professional technician.
Replacement Filters
See serial number label inside of equipment door for unit replacement part numbers.
Maintenance
The filter media in your air cleaner must be changed periodically. The frequency of
filter replacement is best determined by visual examination. However, a biannual
replacement of the filter is strongly recommended, more often in areas where dust is
know to be excessive. Replacement filters can be obtained through your installing
contractor or local dealer.
Steps for replacing filter:
1. Open the access door by pressing down on handle then pull top of door forward
slightly and lift.
2. Pull out used filter and discard.
3. Slide new filter into cabinet with airflow label pointing in the direction of the airflow.
4. Replace access door.

Application with a Humidifier
The Media Air Cleaner is compatible with humidifiers. Avoid applications where water
mist will reach the media. When an evaporative type humidifier is used, it may be
installed between the furnace warm air duct and the return air duct without affecting
the air cleaner. Atomizing and spray type humidifiers should be installed at least six
feet between the air cleaner and humidifier.
Air Conditioning
The air cleaner should be installed upstream of the cooling coil to keep the coil clean.
This will improve cooling efficiency and reduce air conditioning coil maintenance.
Better efficiency directly affects energy costs, so it pays to replace the filter at regular
intervals (see Maintenence). Conversely, failure to replace the filter wastes energy and
it may cause damage to the HVAC system.
