Description
Plug and Play comes to Commercial Cigar Air Purification / Ventilation
Setting up ventilation for a commercial cigar required extensive planning and hours of work to install each smoke removal unit. With LakeAir’s On-Board WIFI, you can be up and running in a few hours. Because this system requires only hanging and plugging in, you can do it in around one hour each. Hanging the LA2-RC2 is easy when using a drywall jack. Common hardware is all you need to secure the unit from above. Lastly, connect the unit to the Smart Life app.
Lift into Place
Place your LA2-RC2 on a drywall jack. These can be rented for less than $100.00 and do all the heavy lifting for you. Be sure you have your unit secured onto the jack before lifting.
Hang with Proper Hardware
Hang your LA2-RC2 with the proper hardware. Our Hanging hardware kit has all you need to safely hang your unit. All you provide is the hardware that is attached to the ceiling or ceiling supports.
Plug In and Connect
Plug your unit into a 120-volt outlet that will handle five amp draw. We can add a custom cord up to 45 feet long. Connect the Unit to the Smart Life App on any Bluetooth device.
All Smoke and Other Particles Removed in One Pass
HEPA filtration is the Best way to remove indoor pollutants like SMOKE, dust, mold, pet dander and hundreds of other particles from the air. LakeAir HEPA filters are True HEPA, meaning they have been tested to remove 99.97% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns. True HEPA filters were tested by NASA, Showing they are even more effective on smaller particles as small as 0.1 microns.
In a commercial setting like a cigar lounge, the HEPA filter is the best way to remove smoke from the air. Most cigar lounges change the HEPA filter every four months.
You can save money on the cost of replacement filters when you use our Filter Subscription Plan. Filters are cheaper and ship-free with the subscriptions. Your units may be eligible for an extended warranty if you subscribe.
Odor Elimination: VOCs , Smoke Odor and Other Odors
Removing smoke odor from the air is the second most important function of a smoke eater. Occasionally, customers will tell us that odor removal is even more important to them than the smoke itself. For the most effective odor removal, you must make the odorous gases directly contact the carbon crystals.
LA2-RC2-HOC uses a five-chamber carbon filter containing 6 pounds of carbon. The air is pulled through 4.5 inches of carbon, which allows the odors to maintain contact with the carbon crystals.
On average, this filter ( part# 499025) provides 4 months of odor-free air for a space of up to 400 square feet (10-foot ceiling height). With a filter subscription filters are shipped for free.
Fast Acting Carbon Filters vs Long Lasting
LakeAir manufactures fast-acting carbon filters. Our filter design uses less carbon placed directly into the air stream. VOCs are pulled through a three-dimensional field of activated carbon, significantly increasing the smoke odor removal rate. However, on the downside, the carbon volume is saturated more quickly, and there is a shorter replacement cycle.
Some air purifier manufacturers use a deep carbon filter. The air stream is passed over beds of activated carbon. The VOCs come into contact on one face of the bed; this provides a much smaller surface for adsorption. This can be a good option in an environment where odor control is of moderate concern. However, this may not provide enough immediate odor mitigation in a room where a great deal of odor is generated (like a cigar room). Just because a product boasts a larger carbon filter, it does not mean it will remove smoke and other odors better than a product with a smaller carbon filter capacity.
WIFI at Wall Switch
If you want the power of WIFI control and the convenience of smoke eater adjustment from a wall switch, you should order your LakeAir smoke eater with WIFI and WS. One WIFI Module can control two LA2-RC2-HOC units at a time.
The WIFI option allows you to control your smoke removal units from any Bluetooth device. You can set up schedules for power off and on. Controlling the blower speed is also possible in real time or within a schedule.
The one drawback to wall switch control is the possibility of customers changing operations controls when you don’t want them to. Consider installing a security cover over the WIFI Speed Control.

On Board WIFI
If you want the most straightforward setup, choose On Board WIFI. Hang your units, plug them in, connect to the Smart Life app, and you are ready to go.
We suggest connecting your air purifiers using a tablet. After the initial setup, you can add more devices and users through the “Home” section of the app.
Adding WIFI allows you to control your smoke removal units from any Bluetooth device. You can set up schedules for power off and on. Controlling the blower speed is also possible in real time or within a schedule.
Maintain total control of your smoke eaters. You will have no unwanted changing os machine settings.

Rotary Potentiometer at Wall Switch
If you want to avoid the challenges of technology, you can choose to have the units controlled by a rotary potentiometer. This provides full functionality from a wall switch. The switch will be connected using six wires. Three wires bring power to the unit, and three wires connect the low-voltage speed control.
To make the job easier, we sell a wiring kit with color-coded conductors to avoid confusion. Be careful not to connect high-voltage (120 volts) to speed control wires. Doing so will damage the unit’s blowers, and that will not be covered by the warranty.
Rotary Potentiometer On Board
Sometimes, a customer wants to be able to control the LA2-RC2-HOC at the unit. This is usually the case if the commercial air purifier is mounted on a cart. In this case, the unit will be plugged into the wall and moved as needed. If this is the method you would like, be sure to order “Controls at Unit only”.
Product Information
The LA2-RC2 is approved for installation in all states, even the state of California. It has zero ozone emittance and contains no prop 65 materials. While it has not been formally certified for European use it is ROHS compliant. The LA2-RC2 can be mounted in several ways. There are 4 eye bolts to hang the unit from the ceiling. Optional wall mount kit allows you to hang this unit from a wall or post in your facility. The LA2-RC2-HOC has 4 rubber feet which can be removed to expose (1/4-20) inserts for mounting to a utility cart. This is certainly one of our most popular commercial air purifiers.
This heavy duty commercial air purifier has a variable speed controller. This allow you to adjust the sound level from 43 to 68 dB(A). As the sound level goes up so does the CFM of the machine. You can achieve 600 to 1200 CFM of HEPA air cleaning.
