| How can I get the most from my
Blueair system? The Blueair system is easy to use. Start by choosing the right
size unit for your room, and replace the filter at the recommended 6-month intervals.
Remember that just as air conditioners and heaters have limits to the volume of air they
can cool or heat, every air purification system has limits to the volume of air it can
clean. Follow these commonsense guidelines:

Close your windows. You wouldn't throw open your windows on a hot summer
day and expect your air conditioner to work efficiently, because you can feel the hot air
coming in and the cool air going out. Even though you can't see the contaminated air
coming in and the clean air going out, the same logic applies to your air purifier. |
|
Close your doors, too. Just as you might seal off part of your house on a
cold winter night to keep your heater working more efficiently, seal off the room in which
your system is working for best results. This is especially important for people using a
Blueair system to ease nighttime asthma or allergy attacks. |

Run your system 24 hours per day. Blueair systems are designed for
phenomenally low power usage, so you can run the system 24/7 without a jump in electricity
consumption. In fact, it costs about the same to power one of our air purification units
as it does to power a single lightbulb: between 15 and 100 watts, depending on the unit
and the operating speed. |

If visible "fluff" builds up on the outside of the air
intake grids, as it can in dustier parts of the world, simply vacuum it away or wipe clean
with a damp cloth. The air intake grid is designed in part to intercept very large
particles before they enter the system, thereby prolonging the life of the filter. The 301
and 402 units may also be vacuumed on the inside, if necessary, while the side panels are
open for filter replacement. |
