height=\"229\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Every 30 days, make sure you wash the ceramic ozone plates in warm water with recommended clear\/lemon ammonia added.\u00a0 If you do add the ammonia, add 1 teaspoon with 1 cup of water.\u00a0 If you do not have this, it\u2019s OK.\u00a0 Then you want to soak the ozone plates in the warm water solution for 2-3 minutes.\u00a0 Remove any leftover residue by lightly scrubbing the metal screen on each side of the plates with a toothbrush or soft brush-like material.\u00a0 Allow for the plates to dry fully before reinserting them back into the unit.\u00a0 You do not want to insert damp and moist plates back into the unit which may result in damaging your unit.<\/p>\n<p>If your air purifier has a back carbon filter on the back of it, it is recommended that you clean it at the same time as the ozone plates.\u00a0 You can use a can of compressed air that can be bought from any local Home Depot or office supplies store to spray the dust off the filter.\u00a0 It is recommended that this is done every 3 months about.\u00a0 You should also replace the back filter at least once a year and replace the ozone plates at least once every 3 years.\u00a0 If you notice the ozone output has decrease or the plate is arching\/producing a weird sound, you shouldn\u2019t wait to replace the plates as well.\u00a0 You can order these plates or other replacement parts like back filters on our parts page found on our website.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, you can use the compressed air to effectively remove any dust inside the unit once every couple of months, or whenever you feel necessary.\u00a0 You can also easily unscrew and remove the front grill of the air purifier and use compressed air to clean the fan motor, the fan blade, or the surrounding areas as needed as well.<\/p>\n<p>For additional information for specific maintenance instructions applicable to your model, please refer to the user guide for you air purifier.\u00a0 Please know that the user guides for old, out of circulation air purifiers are no longer available and you can just follow these general maintenance instructions safely.\u00a0 Visit Alpine\u2019s <a
