What will it cost to operate my Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner?Because all
Friedrich C90B Air Cleaners are ENERGYSTAR certified,
the cost to your electric bill will be minimal. The Friedrich C90B
Air Cleaner requires about as much electricity as a household light
bulb.
What does ENERGYSTAR certified mean?
The ENERGYSTAR Program was created by the US Department of Energy
(DOE) and the US Environment Protection Agency (EPA) to help
consumers identify and purchase homes, buildings, and products that
not only save money, but also protect the environment. A product
that has been ENERGYSTAR certified ensures that the product meets
the DOE and EPA's strict guidelines for energy efficiency and
superior energy performance. Energy efficient products save you
money on your energy bill and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. By
buying ENERGYSTAR products, you not only save yourself money, but
also help save the environment.
How many filters does the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner use?
The energy-efficient Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner uses a washable
pre-filter, an Activated Carbon filter, and re-usable collector
plates instead of HEPA filters. The plates trap particles like dust,
dander, and pollen, while the Activated Carbon filters absorb odors
and fumes and can be easily replaced. Instead of multiple filters
that need frequent changes, the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner only uses
one carbon filter and a series of Collector plates that can be
washed and reused whenever needed.
How often do I have to change the Friedrich C90B Carbon filter?
The life of your Carbon Filter will depend on your Friedrich C90B
air cleaner usage. The concentration of odors and fumes in the air
passing through the air cleaner will determine how long the carbon
filter can be utilized. If your Friedrich C90B air cleaner filters
high concentrations of odors and fumes, its filter life will be much
shorter and will need to be changed to ensure effective use of the
unit. Under normal conditions, with a medium concentration of odors
and fumes, the carbon filter will last between three and six months.
How do I change the Carbon filter in the Friedrich C90B?
It's simple! Remove the plastic cover from the activated carbon
filter. Position the pre-filter closest to the electronic cell, near
the rear of the unit, and insert the carbon filter to the front of
the unit. Make sure the electronic cell is positioned with the
airflow arrow on the end plate pointing toward the fan. Once
properly in place, return the cover and you are done.
What's the difference between the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner and the
Friedrich C90A Air Cleaner?
Although the basic construction of the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner is
the same as the Friedrich C90A Air Cleaner, the C90B air cleaner is
the newest addition to this top-rated line of electronic air
purifiers. Essentially, it is the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR)
that has been improved in the C90B unit. The Friedrich C90B Air
Cleaner delivers more clean air per square foot.
While the Friedrich C90A delivers maximum efficiency for a space of
465 square feet, the Friedrich C90B delivers clean air at a maximum
efficiency for a space of 506 square feet. Additionally, the
Friedrich C90B outperforms the C90A in capturing pollen, tobacco
smoke, and dust. The difference between the Friedrich C90A and C90B
is clear. Friedrich has not only improved on the efficient design,
but they have also yielded better performance rates with the newer
Friedrich C90B.
Do the Friedrich C-90B Air Cleaners come with Filter Replacement
Light Indicators?
No, the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaners do not come with Filter
Replacement Light Indicators. However, simply sign up for the
Clean

Where can I use my Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner?
The Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner works great anywhere. This air
cleaner is recommended for bedrooms, offices, nurseries, and common
areas of the home. If you are an allergy or asthma sufferer, the
Friedrich C90B is the ideal unit for you, and we recommend using it
in the bedroom, as that is where you spend most of your time.
Does the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner produce ozone?
Like a fax machine or copier, the Friedrich C90B does produce
minimal amounts of ozone during operation. The maximum allowable
indoor concentration recommended by the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) and American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) is .050 parts per minute (PPM).
However, the Friedrich C90B's highest ozone level measured was only
.014 PPM.
What type of warranty is offered for the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner?
The Friedrich C90B Carbon filter and air cleaner carries a one year
warranty. This warranty guarantees the air cleaner to be free of
defects in workmanship or materials, under normal use and service
for a period of one year from the date of purchase by the original
owner.
Can I wash my Friedrich C90B Collector plates in the dishwasher?
Absolutely! You can wash the Friedrich C90B collector plates
either in the dishwasher or by hand with a little soap and water.
Either way, it's easy to clean these reusable collector plates.
What particles does the Friedrich C90B Air Cleaner eliminate?
Friedrich C90B Air Cleaners eliminate pollen, dust mite allergen,
mold spores, aerosols, tobacco smoke, odors and fumes, and animal
dander. These air cleaners are the perfect companions for allergy
and asthma sufferers everywhere!
