IQAir Perfect 16 Ducted System - Models 2225/2530

The IQAir Perfect 16 is a fan-less air filter system is designed to be installed in combination with new or existing air-con or heating HVAC systems. The unique feature of the Perfect 16 system is the very low airflow resistance it has, in spite of the very high filtration efficiency (≥ 95%). In fact, the Perfect 16 offers the closest thing to HEPA-filtration without the very high and detrimental airflow resistance associated with normal HEPA-filter installations in ventilation ducts.

 The Perfect 16 is the only system that is rated a perfect MERV 16, the highest filtration efficiency for removing dust, dust mites, pollens, bacteria, pet allergens, mould spores and other harmful contaminants.  No other ducted air cleaning system can offer particle removal of more than 95% for .3 micron (HEPA) and more than 75% for .003 microns (100 x better than HEPA.) This is genuine medical grade indoor air quality.

 There are two models, the

• ID 2225 for 660 litres air per sec (l/s) capacity
• ID 2530 for 943 litres air per sec capacity (l/s) 

 As we sell the P16 units all over Australia, we cannot provide installation services but any local air-con subcontractor will find this a straight forward installation (some people even "diy"). And because we cannot guarantee any sub-contractor's ongoing performance, we cannot make recommendations. Installation cost varies according to access, available space, etc.

Under the Spec & Downloads section, is the Installation Manual which an installer would use as a guide. There are two factors that first must be established:

1.  The air volume that your system generates – usually expressed as litres per second (lps or l/s). This will determine the P16 system you need.
2. That the fan of your system can operate independently, so that pure air can be generated without the cooling or heating operating.

The Perfect 16, given its unique filtration performance, is the most economical means of whole house particle air purification available. However, it does not contain any carbon media for the removal of gases, chemicals or fumes - this must be addresses via another model such as the IQAir GC or GCX.

 NOTE: Evaporative coolers will not work with the P16.

On 50% usage cycle, P16 filters will last 3 years, replacements currently are $800/$1,100. (All prices include gst and subject to change without notice).

Also note that the unit can be broken down to enable it to be passed through a ceiling manhole.

WARRANTY ISSUES: The Perfect 16 is a simple filtration device, which does not affect the warranty of an HVAC system any more or less than that of another filter.

In fact, the Perfect 16 creates less static pressure than many other filters or filtration systems, including those offered by HVAC manufacturers. IQ Air has installed thousands of Perfect 16 systems through hundreds of HVAC installers in the USA and Canada with dozens of different HVAC makes and models.
There has never been any issue regarding an HVAC Manufacturer's warranty.
