How to Clean the Filters in a PermaLife Air Purifier

PermaLife air purifiers are manufactured by the Hunter Fan company. The purifiers use a permanent air filter that removes pollutants and other particles from the air in your home. The charcoal prefilter removes dust, smoke, pollen and larger particles such as lint or pet hair from the air, and the permanent filter captures particles as small as .05 microns. Clean the filter when the filter indicator flashes, and reset the counter each time you clean it. Clean the filter on your PermaLife air purifier every four to six months to ensure it works effectively and efficiently.
