Elevate your HVAC system and your air quality with the General Aire Perfect Platform Air Cleaner, a whole-house air filtration system for vertical installations that keeps the furnace elevated off the floor. Homeowners who want cleaner air, less dust, and longer equipment life will appreciate its space-saving design and powerful 2,000 CFM airflow capacity.
Designed to raise your furnace off the floor, blocking water, insects, and debris while delivering whole-home air cleaning, the adjustable galvanized steel cabinet fits most 1.3- to 3.5-ton air handlers or gas furnaces. It’s a smart choice for new and retrofitted installations.
Key Features and Benefits of the Perfect Platform Air Cleaner
- High Airflow, Low Resistance: Handles up to 2,000 CFM with only .26-inch WC pressure drop, so your system runs efficiently.
- Filtration: Captures 65 percent of dust, pollen, pet dander, and other allergens between 1 and 3 microns for noticeable relief from asthma and allergies with the included MERV-11 filter or finer filtration with the upgraded MERV-13 filter. Filters should be changed every 6 to 12 months.
- Dual-Door Access: Service the filter from either side of the cabinet, making maintenance easy in tight utility rooms.
- Adjustable Cabinet Dimensions: The galvanized steel cabinet can be adjusted to a width of 19 to 22.5 inches and a depth of 24 to 26 inches. Connect a 10-inch duct or a 12-inch duct to the inlet and 19-inch or 22-inch ducting to the outlet, reducing installation time and material costs.
- Heavy-Gauge Steel Construction: Engineered with 22-gauge galvanized steel to resist corrosion and support the weight of your furnace for years of dependable service.
- Protects Your HVAC Investment: Even airflow and debris protection help extend blower life and reduce maintenance calls.
Why Choose a Platform Air Cleaner?
Traditional whole-house air purifiers install in the return duct, often demanding extra sheet-metal work and valuable floor space. The Perfect Platform redesigns that setup by integrating filtration into a load-bearing base, lifting your furnace 14.5 inches to safeguard it from basement moisture and accidental flooding. Because the filter lies horizontally, gravity assists particle capture, making filter cartridge swaps cleaner and quicker. This design simplifies installation with no transition pieces, turning vanes, or added supports, saving both labor and space.
Whether you’re finishing a basement, replacing an old furnace, or seeking a streamlined house air filtration solution, the Perfect Platform offers efficient performance without complicating your mechanical room.
