Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your inline filter box. It is recommended to install the filter box at the starting end of your ductwork for intake applications.

1. Plan Placement: Determine the ideal location for the filter box within your ducting system. It should be easily accessible for future filter replacements.
2. Prepare Ducting: Ensure that the 6-inch ducting on both the intake and exhaust sides is ready for connection.
3. Connect to Ducting: Attach the filter box to your existing 6-inch inline ducting using appropriate clamps or fasteners (not included). The aluminum duct flanges are designed for a secure fit.
4. Integrate with Fan: For maximum filtration efficiency, it is highly recommended to use the filter box with a high static pressure inline duct fan, such as the AC Infinity CLOUDLINE Series. Connect the filter box to the intake side of your inline fan.
5. Secure Installation: Ensure the filter box is securely mounted or supported to prevent movement or strain on the ducting.

Operating Instructions

Once installed, the AC Infinity Inline Filter Box operates passively as part of your ventilation system. Its primary function is to filter incoming air as it passes through the installed filter.

• Ensure the filter is correctly seated within the inner chamber before closing the door.
• Close the hinge-sealed door and engage the slide lock to secure it and maintain an airtight seal.
• The filtration process begins when the connected inline duct fan is activated, drawing air through the filter box.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance, primarily filter replacement, is essential to maintain optimal air quality and system performance.

Filter Replacement:

1. Power Off: Always turn off and disconnect power to the inline duct fan and any associated HVAC system before opening the filter box.
2. Open Door: Locate the slide lock on the side of the filter box. Disengage the lock and open the hinge-sealed door.
3. Remove Old Filter: Carefully slide out the used high-efficacy pleated air filter from the inner chamber.
4. Insert New Filter: Insert a new standard 12" x 20" x 1" MERV-rated filter into the slot. Ensure it is seated correctly.
5. Close Door: Close the door and engage the slide lock to ensure a tight, dust-free seal.
6. Restore Power: Reconnect power to your inline duct fan and HVAC system.
