5 | P a g e Installation:

1. Identify a suitable location for the unit downstream from the 'A' coil in the supply plenum, and downstream from the air filter. 2. Determine the type of duct you have 3. Apply supplied stick mounting template to air duct in either a vertical or horizontal position as shown and so that the long side of the rectangle is perpendicular to the direction of the air flow.

4. Drill 1/8 inch diameter mounting holes at positions indicated on template.

5. Cut out rectangular hole on template using a pair of tin snips or jigsaw. 6. Mount the unit base to the duct using the eight (8) mounting screws provided. 7. Plug ballast plug into end of lamp. 8. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet. 9. Look through view port in the box cover to be sure lamp is working. You should see a blue glow. 10. Loosen the 4 thumbscrews on the sail frame and gently insert the DHP sail. 11. After the DHP sail has been inserted tighten the 4 thumbscrews on the sail frame and slide the frame into place 12. Insert the final 2 thumbscrews into sail frame base until the sail frame is secure.

If the lamp is not glowing, follow steps 8-9 again. If lamp still does not glow, contact technical support at 802-375-2511 for further assistance

Troubleshooting Guide: 1. If unit does not light up, disconnect the power and check the connections for the bulb and ballast then turn the power back on. 2. If unit still does not light up, replace bulb. 3. If unit still does not light up after replacing bulb, replace ballast.

Maintenance: To keep your unit in top condition, we recommend routine cleaning.  Inspect and clean lamp at least every 4 months.  Replace lamp every 18 months to maintain lamp’s output intensity. The lamp should operate continuously.  Replace your SAIL after 2 weeks and every 4 months thereafter.  Do not try to repair or adjust any of the electrical components on your DHP system yourself. Contact LAMS or Mack for warranty information.

Lamp Replacement Procedure: VERY IMPORTANT: Unplug unit from outlet. 1. Loosen the 8 mounting screws on unit and slide unit out of duct work 2. Unplug ballast plug from end of lamp. 3. Slide lamp out carefully. NOTE: When replacing the lamp, always wipe off lamp after installing in unit. 4. Attach the ballast plug onto the end of the lamp.

WARNING: UV lamps contain a small amount of mercury, like a typical fluorescent lamp. Check with your local waste management authority for local disposal or recycling requirements. According to the EPA's Universal Waste Rule, these types of lamps may be disposed of into household waste

5. After replacing lamp, make sure a new Lamp Replacement Label (supplied with lamp replacement) is applied to the housing and dated with the date of installation. 6. Remount DHP unit in duct using 8 mounting screws.

Getting the most from your DHP System:

The DHP system is easy to use. Make sure your unit is the proper size for your HVAC system and for the square footage you wish to cover in your home. In some cases multiple DHP units may be necessary. Be sure to change the Sail according to the recommended replacement schedule.

Close your windows Simple logic would tell you not to run your HVAC system with the windows open and expect it will work with the same efficiency as if they are closed. Even though you cannot see the contaminated air coming in and the disinfected air going out through the windows, the same logic applies to DHP.

Close your doors Just like keeping your windows closed to retain the disinfected air, doors that remain open will also act as a pathway for clean air to escape and new contaminated air to enter your home.

Run your DHP 24 hours a day For optimal results, run your DHP unit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Continuous operation will ensure that a non-stop stream of bacteria- fighting air will circulate throughout your home. DHP technology uses approximately the same amount of power as a single 40 watt lightbulb.

8 | P a g e Safety Considerations: Designed for use in a closed duct system. Do not mount near a return air opening. Please read, understand, and follow all the safety information contained in these instructions prior to use of the DHP system. Retain these instructions for future reference.
