one or more visually coded touch points (130) on the chassis (108), wherein the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprise indicia of user-contactable components of the air cleaner (100).
2. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising one or more of color coded, finish coded, texture coded, or pattern coded touch points.
3. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a label including a coding key.
4. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising at least a portion of an air cleaning component (116).
5. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a grip portion (432).
6. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a handle (406).
7. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a retainer device (407).
8. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a visually coded component and a correspondingly visually coded receptacle.
9. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, with the air cleaner (100) including at least one high voltage air cleaning component (116) located in the chassis (108) and with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising one or more retainer device (407)s (407) that retain the at least one high voltage air cleaning component (116) to the chassis (108).
10. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, further comprising an external shell (103) substantially covering the chassis (108) and including a door (104).
11. The air cleaner (100) of claim 1, further comprising an external shell (103) substantially covering the chassis (108) and including a door (104) and wherein the door (104) exposes the one or more visually coded touch points (130) when the door (104) is open.
12. An air cleaner (100) including touch points, comprising a chassis (108) and an external shell (103) substantially covering the chassis (108) and including at least one access door (104), with the air cleaner (100) being characterized by:

one or more visually coded touch points (130) on the chassis (108), wherein the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprise indicia of user-contactable components of the air cleaner (100) and wherein the door (104) exposes the one or more visually coded touch points (130) when the door (104) is open.
13. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising one or more of color coded, finish coded, texture coded, or pattern coded touch points.
14. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a label including a coding key.
15. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising at least a portion of an air cleaning component (116).
16. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a grip portion (432).
17. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a handle (406).
18. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a retainer device (407).
19. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising a visually coded component and a correspondingly visually coded receptacle.
20. The air cleaner (100) of claim 12, with the air cleaner (100) including at least one high voltage air cleaning component (116) located in the chassis (108) and with the one or more visually coded touch points (130) comprising one or more retainer device (407)s (407) that retain the at least one high voltage air cleaning component (116) to the chassis (108).
21. A method of forming an air cleaner including touch points, the method comprising providing a chassis, with the method being characterized by:

providing one or more visually coded touch points on the chassis, wherein the one or more visually coded touch points comprise indicia of user-contactable components of the air cleaner.
22. The method of claim 21, with the one or more visually coded touch points comprising one or more of color coded, finish coded, texture coded, or pattern coded touch points.
23. The method of claim 21, with the one or more visually coded touch points comprising a label including a coding key.
24. The method of claim 21, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points comprising at least a portion of an air cleaning component.
25. The method of claim 21, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points comprising a grip portion.
26. The method of claim 21, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points comprising a handle.
27. The method of claim 21, with a touch point of the one or more visually coded touch points comprising a retainer device.
28. The method of claim 21, with the one or more visually coded touch points comprising a visually coded component and a correspondingly visually coded receptacle.
29. The method of claim 21, with the air cleaner including at least one high voltage air cleaning component located in the chassis and with the one or more visually coded touch points comprising one or more retainer devices that retain the at least one high voltage air cleaning component to the chassis.
30. The method of claim 21, further comprising providing an external shell substantially covering the chassis and including a door.
