Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the CleanAlert FILTERSCAN
®
WiFi Air Filter Monitor. The
CleanAlert FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor continuously and automatically monitors the
clogging* of an air filter installed into a household or commercial forced air heating, air conditioning,
or heat pump system and provides alerts when the filter clogs and needs to be replaced.
The CleanAlert AirFilterSentry
™
Notification Service will send you a text message alert and or
email alert notifying you of the clogging* of an air filter installed into your household or commercial
forced air heating, air conditioning, or heat pump system. The system monitoring service is located at
www.cleanalertwifi.com where you may register your FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor and
sign up for the CleanAlert AirFilterSentry Notification Service. In addition to receiving text and or
email notifications, you can check on the status of your air filter as it becomes more and more dirty
over time before reaching clogged* status.
*NOTE: “Clogging” is defined as when the differential air pressure in the HVAC system doubles
from its calibrated clean or new air filter value.
IMPORTANT! Please read all instructions carefully to insure years of trouble-free operation.

Tubing Kit is used to have the FILTERSCAN monitor differential pressure across the air
