Please verify your air purifier model before installation to ensure compatibility.
4. Setup and Installation
Follow these general steps to replace the filters in your compatible Coway air purifier. Always refer to your air purifier's original user manual for specific instructions on opening the unit and filter placement.
- Power Off: Before beginning, ensure your air purifier is turned off and unplugged from the power outlet.
- Access Filter Compartment: Open the front cover or access panel of your air purifier according to its specific design.
- Remove Old Filters: Carefully remove the used filters. Note their orientation and order for correct installation of the new filters. Dispose of old filters responsibly.
- Install New Filters: Insert the new FilterTech filters in the correct order and orientation. Typically, the nonwoven/pre-filters are installed first, followed by the carbon filter, and then the HEPA filter. Ensure any 'FRONT' markings on the filters face the correct direction as indicated by your air purifier.
- Close Compartment: Securely close the filter compartment or front cover.
- Restore Power: Plug the air purifier back into the power outlet and turn it on.
- Reset Filter Indicator (if applicable): If your air purifier has a filter replacement indicator, follow its manual to reset it.
5. Operating Instructions
Once the FilterTech replacement filters are correctly installed, your air purifier will operate as usual. The filters work continuously to capture airborne particles and odors, improving your indoor air quality.
The recommended use period for this filter set is 1 year. These filters are non-reusable and should be replaced after this period for optimal performance.
6. Maintenance
Consistent maintenance, primarily timely filter replacement, is crucial for the efficiency and longevity of your air purifier.
- Replacement Schedule: Replace the entire filter set every 12 months (1 year) under normal operating conditions. More frequent replacement may be necessary in environments with higher pollution levels or continuous use.
- Filter Disposal: Used filters should be disposed of with regular household waste. They are not recyclable.
- Cleaning: The HEPA and Carbon filters are not washable and should not be cleaned. Attempting to wash them will damage the filter media and reduce their effectiveness.
7. Troubleshooting
- Issue: Unpleasant odor from new filters after installation.
- Possible Cause: New carbon filters may release a slight odor (off-gassing) initially, or there might be residual manufacturing odors.
Solution: Remove the new filters and allow them to air out in a well-ventilated area for several hours before re-installing. Ensure the filters are installed correctly. If the odor persists after a few days of use, contact customer support. - Issue: Reduced air purification performance or increased noise.
- Possible Cause: Filters are old, clogged, or incorrectly installed.
Solution: Check that all filters are installed correctly and securely. If the filters have been in use for close to or over 1 year, they are likely saturated and require replacement. Ensure the air purifier's intake and output vents are not obstructed.
