There is a repair outfit located through the internet that seems reasonable for approaching for a more involved repair job. Contacting them may get you the parts you require.

The one I looked up had rebuilds available, so you might be able to get a replacement for a better price with your old one exchanged.
If you go this route, just do a web search for Ecoquest air purifier parts/repair

Need a wiring diagram for Oreck XL air purifier Air8SD

I would look at the board using a high powered magnifying glass to see if there was any signs of broken stubs of wires sticking out of any solder joints. Also look for solder joints that have no other possible routes, (dead ends) that do not have any other connections running from them. Like a resistor that has a copper path on one end and nothing running from the other end. Or it could be a ground wire if no other spot is found.

Why does clean stay on

it has a reset function hold down power 5 sec otherwize check to see if there is any dark spots on the bottom before reinserting. 1st make sure its unplugged then 2nd there should be a copper set up as if putting a 9 volt battery into a fire alarm. there should be two side by side the darkening is where either cleaner was left still dripping or a dust partical probably from the paper towel. caused a static charge. use a Q tip to clean it . and always make sure it is dry if u hear a static sound unplug it is still wet.

I have an older model Flair unit. I took it apart to try and give it a good cleaning and noticed that there was a small glass bulb-looking part with one of the thin wires was broken. Of course the other...

It's attached to the pulse radio-wave ionizer. It comes on when the unit is on to show the radio wave is working. It's not needed and I've never seen a replacement but Radio Shack could probably help you replace it if you wanted.

I HAVE 2 IONIC BREEZE QUADRA. FIRST HAD PROBLEM WITH 1, NOW THE SECOND ONE HAS SAME PROBLEM. HAVE CLEANED AND DRIED THOROUGHLY THE BARS AND FILTER, AND CLEANED REST OF WIRES WITH BRUSH. WHEN I TURN ON I...

If none of the hi voltage grid wires have broken then check to be sure grid wires are truly cleaned.
If not cleaned in a while like every 2 weeks they will have carbon build on them. And from my experiences with cleaning them is the build looks similar to the color of the wire. Try some qtips dipped in alcohol or cotton balls. The build comes off like flaking metal. Also be very tender with these wires they break fairly easy. When done cleaning turn upside down and back so beads can scrape up and down on wires. Also you do know once clean the parts especially the big collection bars they need to dry for at leased 24 hours before ever powering unit back on. Hope this helps.

The cleaning overdue light is flashing I cleaned the filter what else do I need to do

Hi.

The filter must be replaced.

If the model is post 2007, to get parts or repair contact Ionic Breeze support. Here contact page.

If the model was manufactured before 2007, read below, in that case I suggest not proceeding with the repair.

I want to call attention on the fact that several of old Ionic Breeze models are not being manufactured anymore because of health concerns. New model use a completely different technology. Parts for old models that raised concerns are not distributed anymore.
I suggest contacting manufacturer, if parts are not available, then the purifier was among the ones related to health concer. In that case I suggest replacing the ionic purifier with a different air purifier.

Please read the article below:

Ionic Breeze Health Concerns

Sharper Image Ionic Breeze 3.0 IS SPARKING

Hi.

The filter is arching. Try first cleaning the filter, dust may cause arching. If that does not help, then parts had been damaged by arching. Usually the filter and more parts must be replaced.

My wife wanted me to take it apart to clean it properly. we have the quadra which all of you know that it's impossible to clean. Well, after cleaning it, I noticed a fuse which is permanently in place...

You can replace the fuse by soldering a new one into place -- it's a standard fuse, just match the amp rating of old to new.

Chances are though, after you do this, it will blow again. So, there's a good chance the unit is kaput.

I have extensive experience with these units to the point of even replacing the high-voltage field wires (the two fine wires which run from top to bottom) with titanium wire. There is no real good way to keep these things running properly -- they're kinda like weed whackers -- inherently problematic.

I have a Fresh Air Unit from Ecoquest. The

Hi,

When that message appears the plate does not make good contact with the two contact points. You can use rubbing alcohol and a q-tip to clean the points. After 1-2 years it is also advisable to change the purifier plate. Plates are about $15 and can be purchased at EcoQuest.com

If the plate is dirty (and this can unnoticeable grime-grease) clean the plate with 1 part clear ammonia and 1 part water. An old tooth brush works great.

"Replace plate" messge appears. I replaced it but the message remains!

Regarding "Replace Card" warning, 90% of the time it's the female metal connector on the red wire going to the spring metal connection screws... The connector can have a buildup of corrosion ( green) build inside of the crimped connection. In that case, the crimped connector will need to be replaced. The black wire may also suffer from corrosion, but to a lessor extent. The replacement crimps need to be stainless steel crimps. The copper crimps corrode easily. Another thing to look out for are loose connections. The final solution would be to replace the card, or see your friendly dealer.
