Nu-Calgon 4900-20 - iWAVE-R, Residential IAQ Ion Generator Each
Nu-Calgon 4900-20 – iWave-R, Residential IAQ Ion Generator (Each)
Product Description
Improve your home’s indoor air quality with the Nu-Calgon 4900-20 iWave-R, a residential in-duct ion generator designed for HVAC systems up to 6 tons (approximately 2,400 CFM). This self-cleaning, maintenance-free device uses advanced needlepoint bi-polar ionization technology to actively neutralize airborne particles, allergens, bacteria, viruses, odors, and smoke — creating cleaner, fresher air throughout the home.
Key Features & Benefits
- High ion output: Generates over 160 million ions per cm³ per polarity (320 million total ions/cm³) for effective air and coil treatment.
- Self-cleaning design: Built-in cleaning cycle (every 1, 3, 5, or 10 days; default = 3 days) ensures consistent performance without maintenance.
- Universal voltage input (24 VAC – 240 VAC): Compatible with virtually all residential HVAC systems.
- Compact and easy to install: Measures approximately 6″ L × 4.8″ W × 2″ D; mounts with screws or magnets inside duct, on return or supply plenum, or air handler wall.
- Safe and ozone-free: Certified to meet UL 867 standards for low ozone generation and indoor air safety.
- Extended HVAC performance: Reduces buildup on coils and keeps systems operating efficiently while improving overall air cleanliness.
- Suitable for up to 6-ton systems: Perfect for typical residential HVAC applications.
Ideal Applications
- Whole-home HVAC systems with ducted air distribution (gas, electric, or heat pump).
- Homes seeking improved IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) — targeting odors, VOCs, smoke, and allergens.
- Installers looking for a low-maintenance IAQ enhancement for new or retrofit projects.
- Areas where HVAC coil cleaning is difficult or infrequent — the iWave-R helps keep coils cleaner for longer.
