Frequently Asked Questions About A Smoke Air Cleaner and Pur...
The SE400 and SE800 are designed to run 24/7, but in most cases, they will not need to run constantly. A good practice is to turn the air cleaner(s) on high speed prior to opening time, to get a head start on air circulation ? this helps reduce the chance of your air cleaning equipment having to play "catch-up." Once patrons start rolling in, you may choose to reduce the air cleaner fan speed if high speed is not necessary.
