My HVAC contractor cut the cord off the CaluTech duct mounted air purifier and wired it direct to the fan. Does this mean I have no warranty now?

You would have been better off with the unit on always, not connected to a relay or switch on the fan. When the fan isn’t running the pathogens and mold spores in the air don’t stop too. In addition, the dust mites don’t stop mating and multiplying. You want the UV on whenever possible. If mounted at the coils keep in mind that they are always wet, even when the fan shuts off. If the UV goes off at the coil for even 10 minutes mold already begins to form. Keep it on for cleaner air. This extends the lamp life and the electrical cost is no more than a single light bulb. If you want it to be sent as a hard wire unit, tell us, we’ll ship it to you that way.
