Clean Comfort AMHP-250-UPD 5-Stage HEPA - 2000 SQ. FT. Home
The AMHP-250 Air Cleaner is the most advanced air treatment system in the Clean Comfort® brand family of products. This Clean Comfort™ product offers five stages of air treatment for outstanding cleaning and sterilization of air in the home. The AMHP-250-UPD combines HEPA particulate filtration, non-ozone producing UVC germicidal light for deactivation of viruses, bacteria and molds, photocatalytic oxidation for reduction of airborne chemicals, and activated carbon / potassium permanganate odor absorption - all in one air treatment system. How It Works The AMHP-250-UPD air cleaner has been designed to be installed on the return air duct. A portion of this return air is drawn in through an opening on the rear or top of the unit and then through five stages of air treatment before returning the air to home's return air duct. First, the air passes through a pleated carbon VOC prefilter to remove lint, large particles and heavyweight gases to extend the life of the HEPA and PCO filter. Smaller particles then pass through a long-life, 99.97% HEPA media filter, which captures particles 0.3 micron (1/84,000 of an inch) and larger. This HEPA filter has more than 40 ft² of collection surface area. The clean air passes through a reflection chamber where two high-output ultraviolet (C band) germicidal lamps emit powerful UVC light rays that are designed to deactivate or inhibit bacteria, viruses, mold, fungi, and microbial growth. These are non-ozone producing lamps. The ultraviolet light is also used to activate the CinQuartz™ media located below the UVC lamps. The CinQuartz™ PCO filter is a quartz media coated with nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO2). The combined action of the UVC light and the TiO2 decomposes volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into basic molecules such as H2O and CO2, thereby reducing odors and airborne chemicals in the process. In the last stage of treatment, the air passes through a final filter containing a mixture of activated carbon and potassium permanganate to further reduce odors and light gases. Treated air is discharged back into the return air duct. Although the AMHP only treats a portion of your home's air at a time, it can treat all the air in a 2,000 square foot home in just over an hour of operation when running continuously on full speed. The very large collection surface area of the HEPA filter (40 ft²) ensures a long service life: up to 2-3 years, based on conditions in the home. Downlaods: Spec Sheet
