1.0 INSTALLATION & CONFIGURATION INSTRUCTIONS

1.1 AIRCYCLER® G1 CONTROLLER LOCATION

The AirCycler® g1 controller can be installed near the thermostat or out of view on/near the air handler unit. 

Warning: Before installing the AirCycler®, turn off all power to the furnace. There may be more than one power to disconnect. 

Electrical shock can cause injury or death.

1.2 CONFIGURING THE AIRCYCLER G1®

On power up, all icons will be illuminated for 3 seconds.  

There are two set up methods: Calculated Flow and Calculated Time. If you know the amount of fresh air coming into the 

air handler as well as flow required by code you can use Calculated Flow to meet requirements. If you prefer to configure 

the amount of time you want fresh air to enter the home per hour, use Calculated Time.

To set up the AirCycler® g1 based on 

Calculated Flow

 press and hold the 

UP

 arrow for 10 seconds.

To set up the AirCycler® g1 based on 

Calculated Time

 press and hold the 

DOWN

 arrow for 10 seconds.

OPERATING MODE DISPLAY

When the AirCycler® is in Normal Operation, the display will show 

the percentage of ventilation complete for the current hour.

If the outside fresh air damper is open the OA icon will show.

If the thermostat is calling for heat or cool, the FAN icon will be 

illuminated 

without

 the ON icon.

If the central fan is on, the FAN and ON icons will show. The 

ON icon is only illuminated when the AirCycler® g1 has 

forced the central fan on. 

Pressing the MODE button at any time during normal 

operation will go to setting the current time of day.
