Tip: How to Repair Your Air Cleaner
Because electronic air cleaners work silently, the only way to tell if they
are working is to introduce some dust or salt to them. If they crackle and
pop like a bug zapper, they are working. If not, the filter may have been
damaged while cleaning or there could be an electrical problem. In either
case a professional should come out and take a look.
