Assembling The Smoke Purification System

• 1

  Measure and cut the Velcro strips. Take the Velcro strips and cut them with the scissors into four 1 inch long square pieces.

  Attach the Velcro Strips to the air filter. Separate all four of the 1 inch Velcro strips. Then on the side with the cardboard support frame, attach the softer halves of the Velcro strips to the four corners of the activated carbon air filter.

• 3

  Attach the Velcro strips to the box fan. Align the four remaining rough sided Velcro strips to the four corners of the back of the box fan so that they are even with their counterparts on the air filter. Then attach the remaining Velcro strip halves to the back to the fan.

• 4

  Attach the air filter to the box fan. Align the Velcro side of the activated carbon air filter to the back of the box fan and push them together until the Velcro holds the filter in its place.

• 5

  Activate the system. Now that everything is assembled, simply turn on the fan through its controls to activate it, and enjoy your new smoke purification system.
