Cleaning And Storage; Frequently Asked Questions - Honeywell DESIGNER HPA830 Series Owner's Manual

We recommend that you clean the air purifier at least once every 3 months and before extended storage.

Use only a dry cloth to wipe the external surfaces of the air purifier.

Do Not Use Water, Wax, Polish, Or Any Chemical Solution.

If your Air Purifier will not be used for more than 30 days, we recommend that you:

• Remove the HEPA and Pre-Filter cartridge from the unit.

• Wrap the HEPA and Pre-Filter cartridge in an air-tight plastic bag.

My Air Purifier is starting to make noise and the air output is less. What's wrong?

The filters may be dirty. High amounts of contaminants can block the pores in the filter and stop the air from

moving through it. Replace the Filters. The HEPA Filters should be replaced every year and the Pre-Filter should

be replaced every 3 months. Please note these are guidelines only and filters should be checked periodically as

individual home conditions may vary. To ensure the unit continues to perform properly, replace with Genuine

Honeywell Filters.

How long should I run my Air Purifier?

In general, the unit will be most effective when doors and windows are closed. It is recommended that you run

your air purifier while you are at home to help clean the air. If desired or conditions warrant, you may run your air

purifier 24 hours a day.

Can I wash any of the filters in my Air Purifier?

No. Washing the filters will ruin them.

What are VOCs?

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted from various solids and liquids such as paints, cleaning supplies,

building materials, and permanent markers. Some of these compounds can have adverse short and long term

health effects and consistently have higher concentrations indoors than outside.

Why did my Air Purifier suddenly turn on a higher setting?

Is the air purifier set to Auto Mode? If it is, the unit may have sensed a higher level of VOCs and has adjusted the

cleaning level accordingly.
