JDS 750-ER 14022 3 Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter

by JDS

Product Description

Product Description

The JDS 750JE filtration system will remove 99 percent of dust particles as small as 5 microns and 80 percent of particles as small as 1 micron from the air you breathe. It features a 3.9 amp, 300-watt motor. The included electrostatic prefilter cleans dust, bacteria, fungi, and pollen from the air. This model comes with a two-speed on/off pull chain and a variable-speed control knob to dial in the desired airflow from a whisper-quiet 200 cfm to an ultraperformance 750 cfm, cleaning the air in a 30-by-30-foot shop 10 times an hour. The air cleaner measures 12 by 24 by 34 inches (height by width by length). The cabinet is constructed of 20-gauge prepainted steel. The air cleaner comes fully assembled and ready to use with all filters included; just hang it up and plug it in. No outside venting is required and existing room temperature is not affected. This JDS filtration system will operate most efficiently suspended from the ceiling as close to the source of pollution as possible. If a ceiling location is not convenient, a tabletop or shelf may be used--however, the more elevated the location, the less the airflow will be restricted. In larger areas requiring a high volume of air filtration, multiple units can be strategically placed. This product comes with a lifetime warranty.

Product Description

This new development from JDS carries with it all the great features of the model it replaces, and adds a new remote control system. The JDS 750ER is a high efficiency three stage air filtration system that removes the dangerous to breathe talc-fine dust particles that regular dust collectors cannot get. With an included electrostatic (washable) prefilter, use is easier than ever. The 750ER is powered by a heavy-duty motor that pulls 750 cubic feet of air through the filter each minute. From a whisper quiet 200 CFM to its full 750 CFM, the performance is great, with effective removal of 99 of 5 micron dust, bacteria, fungi and pollen particles in your shop. It also grabs as much as 80 of particles down to 1 micron size (1 micron equals 1 millionth of a meter). The system completely filters the air in a 30 x 30 x 8 shop once every 10 minutes. The longer the Air-Tech runs, the cleaner your shop air becomes. A unique slide-in/slide-out filter system, combined with well-placed access doors, lets you change filters quickly and easily, without any tools. While designed for ceiling installation, the Air-Tech 750ER can also be placed on tabletops or shelves. The 750ER measures 12" x 24" x 34" and weighs 62 pounds. It draws 300 watts. The new remote control offers three speeds, low, medium and high, and has four time settings so the 750ER shuts off automatically at one hour, two hours, three hours or four hours.

5.0 out of 5 stars Variable Speed a Big Plus, December 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: JDS 750-ER 14022 3 Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter (Tools & Home Improvement)

The variable speed feature of the JDS unit is a real benefit as are the two speed ranges. At the low speed setting you can barely tell the unit is on. The only noise you hear at the maximum setting is from the rush of air, not rattles. Delta's unit moves more air, 850 cfm vs the JDS units 750 cfm, but is not as quiet (based on sample size of one) and is single speed. The JDS unit has a pull chain that allows you to turn the unit on and off and change speed range when the unit is ceiling mounted. The Delta unit has a rocker on/off switch. Get help mounting the unit on the ceiling, its awkward to handle and heavy. Mounting hardware and rubber feet came with my unit, a nice touch.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality, Great Value, February 21, 2001

I locally purchased the Delta Air Cleaner prior to this unit based on price. Once getting it home I realized that I had given up many features to save a few dollars. I returned the Delta and got this unit, it was worth it!

The JDS quality of build is far above the Delta. Heavier gage case and better attention to detail in manufacture. The eloctrostatic air filter is a real value (since it is the outer filter that needs the most frequent replacing/cleaning), and the infinitely variable speed adjustment and pull switch all make this unit well worth the little extra money. The pull switch will half whatever setting you have as high on the variable speed adjustment (each pull is - high, mid, off).

I have reviewed the Jet product as well (only in literature, not hands on) and feel that the JDS is still a better unit. The Jet has the remote control feature which sounds good at first. I have a stereo in my shop that has a remote, never use it. It's never in a convenient place relative to me or I can't find it! I feel the remote for the air cleaner would be the same, and I feel it's just one more gizmo to break or get lost. The air cleaner goes on and off only once a day, no big deal.

It would be nice if the JDS had a timer as does the Jet, but it's an easy addition if I find it necessary.

The JDS says lifetime warranty, that's on the case only, the motor is 1 year. Not sure about the other brands.

One more little thing. I've worked to create a nice atmosphere in my shop and I really dislike products that are sticker laden billboards for the manufacturer. I felt the Delta was an eyesore hanging from my ceiling and the Jet looks to be the same from the pictures. The JDS is subdued and professional looking, a small thing indeed, but perhaps something to consider if you dislike visually obtrusive logoism.

I would buy this unit again and highly recommend it as a necessary safety item in any dust laden environment.

This review is from: JDS 750-ER 14022 3 Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter (Tools & Home Improvement)

I had a body shop for 20 years. We did a lot of high end cars. At the risk of sounding stupid, I always wondered why the spotless shops always had smokeaters on the ceiling. (That is what they called them) Being that the shop was large enough to hold 20 cars, I would need two, and that would run me about 4 grand for the size that I needed. It always got put on the back burner.
I no longer own the shop, but now have a pretty elaborate home woodworking shop in the basement. Even though it was in a separate room, and I would frequently install a fan in the high windows, the whole basement still managed to get dusty. Yeah real dusty. Now thanks to the JDS Air Tech, the shop, doesn't even get real dusty. I get some wood chips on the floor, which to some extent can't be avoided, but the air is clear. I still use a mask while sanding or using saws. Not a litlle white cotton thing, but a real mask like the 3M R6211 Dual Cartridge Paint Spray Respirator. The simple dust and pollen masks don't do the job. They leak around the edges real bad, almost like not having a mask on at all.
After twenty years of exposure, my lungs are clear, thanks to always using a quality mask. In the woodworking industry, their is a disease they call brown lung, or black lung, and it is a result of years of exposure to fine wood airborne dust.
Wear a mask, get a shop vac to hook up to your equipment, and buy a JDS Air Tech Air Filtration system. You'll have a much cleaner shop, healthier lungs, and the quiet hum of the motor gives a warm cozy feeling to the shop that is hard to describe. Now on to the nuts and bolts of it.
I considered the Delta models, and became concerned when I read the reviews on their dust collection systems. Several people had blown motors in the first month, and many more of them were blowing circuit breakers. I didn't know if that would spill over into their air filtration units.
The Delta's had a timer and a remote control. The timer was set in 1/2 hour incrementals up to 7 1/2 hours. What if you only wanted to leave it running for 15 minutes when you left the shop?
When another reviewer mentioned the thin gauge metal used in the Delta, I decided to try the JDS. I'm glad I did. It included a free electrostatic filter, something that I had to pay for on the Delta. All in all it was one hundred dollars less.
You would have to position the delta so the proper side was exposed for the remote control to work.
I decided with the money saved, I would install a switch timer on the wall for twenty bucks and keep the eighty in my pocket. That way I can set it to constant on, for long term use, or set it for precisely the amount of time I want to leave it running when I leave the shop.
The JDS does have a pull chain on it if you want to use stop, slow, or full on. In addition the variable speed knob gives you infinitely variable speed settings between 200 and 750.
That is one thing about the Delta, it moves a little more air at 1000 CFM instead of 750. My shop is 30x15 and the JDS clears the dust out of the air in only a minute or two. I guess that is because it is located in the center of the shop, directly over the dustiest production area.
One other thing is that I like the idea of having both ends of the unit being all filter area. The Delta has a little opening on one end. Makes me think that the little opening filter would require more cleaning or replacement.
The JDS boasts a cleaning rate of 99% of the airborne particles. The Delta advertises 91% of the particles 1 micron or larger. At a woodworking publication site, they had a review of the different air cleaners, and the JDS came in at 80% of particles 1 micron in size. Then they explained that different manufacturers used different standards to determine their filtration specifications, so that was not a reliable method of comparison. I'm up in the air on that issue. :-) No pun intended.
The Delta appears to be louder, made of thinner gauge metal, and related to it's cousin dust collection series that is fraught with electrical problem reviews.
The JDS is super quiet, even when running at top speed. At the lowest setting, you barely know it is on. It is a solidly built unit, and well packaged from the factory.
All in all I give it 5 stars for price, performance, and usability. I give it 100 stars, for being part of a package, that protects the most important tool in your shop, and that is you.
