2 Installation Notes
APCO RT is usually installed on the supply side
duct just above the air system but can also be
installed on the return side if necessary.
The APCO RT unit should be oriented so that
the air flows past the UV Light first then into
the Matrix Element.
If a second optional UV lamp is used (APCO
RT Dual) select a location inside the air system
that will allow it to shine on the greatest
surface area or the area with the most evident
microbial growth. To install the secondary UV
light use the Optional 2nd Remote UV Light
