Central system air cleaners and filters are generically catergorized by:

Basic Furnace Filters, which come standard awith most HVAC systems. These filters only protect the furnace from bulk dust that can clog equipment before the warranty runs out; they do little to clean the air of smaller particles.

Media Filters, which filter the air using webs of polyproylene fibers. Honeywell offers several media air cleaners and replacement filters, including the latest addition, the PopUp media replacement filter.

Electronic Air Cleaners, which electrically charge and collect airborne particles on a collection grid. The Honeywell F300 EAC captures up to 100% of airborne particles passing through the product. The design of the F300's collection grid section offers the most surface area available for collecting these charged particles.
The F300 power supply also increases voltage based on the amount of particles collected on these plates, so that efficiency over time stays high; an important aspect in EAC selection.

Overview

A Trion HE Plus electronic air cleaner is directly connected to the heating and cooling system so that recirculated air passes through the air cleaner. The permanent mesh pre-filter has first contact with dirty air pulled in by the furnace blower and traps large particles such as hair and lint. Then, a high-voltage ionizer within the air cleaner's air-purifying cell charges airborne pollutants such as bacteria and viruses so they adhere to the collection plates. This prevents harmful irritants from being constantly recirculated inside the home. The air, cleaned of most of its impurities, is returned to the home. The air-purifying cell is permanently renewable by periodic washings.

Features

  • The strongest cabinet, most reliable power supply, and the sturdiest cell in the industry– recognized by dealers nationwide

  • Washable, aluminum mesh pre-filter for large particles

  • Optional charcoal after-filter to reduce common household odors

  • Standard electronic airflow sensor automatically senses air movement within the duct, resulting in reduced power usage

Benefits

  • Affordable operation– permanent, washable, aluminum collection cells deliver longer service life and easy-to-clean cells and filters mean less costly maintenance

  • Overall HVAC system efficiency– because these units keep cooling coils clean, the efficiency and lifespan of the total HVAC system is boosted significantly

  • Intelligent design– these units are built with dealers in mind. Power supply is easy to access and mounting allows easy removal of units to simplify and shorten on-site servicing. Other key parts “snap-in” for simplified service and a fail-safe connection with built-in airflow sensor eliminates the possibility of incorrect wiring by the service technician.

  • Effective air treatment– aluminum mesh pre-filter traps large particles such as dirt, lint and pet hair

  • System protection– built-in internal fuse protects the 24 V transformer in the event of a power supply failure

  • A wide variety of sizes– the HE Plus 1400 comes in two sizes,
    24-7/8" Deep x 7-1/8" Wide x 20-1/4" High with a 22-1/2" x 13-7/8" Duct Opening, and 21-3/8" Deep x 7-1/8" Wide x 24-1/4" High with a 19" x 17-7/8" Duct Opening. The HE Plus 2000 comes in 24-7/8" Deep x 7-1/8" Wide x 24-1/4" High with a 22-1/2" x 17-7/8" Duct Opening. See spec sheet for diagram.

  • Flexible dealer solutions– all of the HE Plus units are UL/C-UL listed, and are easily converted to 240 V

Warranty

  • Limited 3-year Warranty
