Troubleshooting and Repair Guide

Alpine / EcoQuest Fresh Air 120FA / 1.5

by Carl Powell III

Introduction

The Fresh Air 120FA or 1.5 model (EcoQuest seems to have named ALL their systems

“Fresh Air”, so you have to refer to them by the model number) has been a work horse

of an air puriﬁer for a decade or more. The latest models from Vollara, Inc. (who

eventually bought most of EcoQuest International) use the same technologies, just with

a little bit of a twist. However, the 120FA and 1.5 models have been long ago

discontinued and Vollara no longer supports these models with parts and repairs.

But don’t worry, we still do! In fact, we’ve gone out of the way to help our customers

keep up and running with their old dependable puriﬁers! This guide is one example of

how we help our customers with their systems. We also answer questions and source

our own parts when they are no longer available.

How does it work?

Here you’ll ﬁnd a down-to-earth, plain english description of what your puriﬁer does.

Inside this machine, you’ll ﬁnd four or ﬁve different methods (depending on the model)

of puriﬁcation to make your home or ofﬁce air cleaner. They are:

1) Ozone Production from the Ozone Plate or Puriﬁer Plate

! Ozone, when released into the air, combines with odors, gasses and chemicals

in the air reducing them to odorless and harmless materials. The ozone combination

causes a chemical reaction that results in reducing them to oxygen and water.

A little ozone is a good thing, just be careful not to use too much. It can be an

irritant to some people (some much more than others). A good rule of thumb is to set

the unit so that you can smell just a little when you walk into the room, but don’t notice it

after a few minutes. If you can smell it all the time, it may be set too high. Use the

square footage guide on the LCD panel as a starting point and adjust as needed.

2) RF Ionization from the energized antenna

! The RF ionizer uses a radio-like signal that alternates to create a signal that

gives all the material ﬂoating in the air to take on either a positive or negative charge as

it works. When a piece of dust or other particle with a positive charge comes close to

one with a negative charge, they are attracted together. When enough get together, they

have enough weight to fall from the air to the ﬂoor where it can be vacuumed and

removed.

3) Needlepoint Ionization

! Depending on the model, you may also have a type of ionization that emanates

from a small needlepoint located in the front of the unit. This performs a similar function

to the RF Ionizer, but uses direct ionization instead.
