a filtration unit;
a pump;
a water source in connection with the filtration unit;
a base plate having an aperture fixedly attached to a wall of the plenum or a wall of the airflow duct within a building;
a locator plate removably attached to the base plate;
a bulkhead fitting engaged to the locator plate and coupled to a hose capable of withstanding at least 3000 psi of water pressure and a rigid pipe;
two hand bolts that are offset and asymmetrically positioned from one another and are engaged with the locator plate and the base plate;
wherein the rigid pipe extends from the locator plate in a direction opposite the hose, the rigid pipe having a nozzle at a distal end from the locator plate and opposite the bulkhead fitting;
wherein the nozzle is positioned such that filtered water at a pressure of at least about 800 psi is dispersed within the airstream in a direction of flow of the airstreams; and
