Operating and maintenance instructions for the ventilation unit
Using the ventilation during
the cold season
A correctly designed and used ventilation system reduces
costs and saves energy. In addition, it promotes the health
of both the living environment and the residents.
•
Always use the ventilation system in accordance with
the plan drawn up for your home – around the year.
•
Clean or replace the filters when the system advises
you to do so, and vacuum-clean the interior of the
unit regularly.
•
Open the lid of the ventilation unit and inspect the
unit regularly, e.g. once a month.
•
The equipment may become dirty due to dust and
other air pollutants. Dirt blocks the filters and clings
to the heat exchanger weakening the efficiency of
ventilation.
•
Use the special modes, such as the Fireplace mode,
only when truly required.
•
The unnecessary use of special modes increases
energy consumption.
•
Instead of, or in addition to, adjusting the ventilation
system, you can also improve living comfort using
traditional methods:
•
Keep the curtains and windows closed on hot
days in order to keep out the heat of the sun. Dress
more warmly on cold days. This way you can save a
significant amount of energy.
•
Only use spare parts approved by Enervent.
•
Only use original filters. They have been designed
to ensure the best possible performance of your
ventilation system.
•
Use the Eco mode in order to save energy and reduce
costs without compromising indoor air quality.
EFFICIENT USE OF THE VENTILATION
Do not reduce the ventilation or switch it off even when
the outdoor temperature drops. Instead of decreasing, the
costs may increase. Your ventilation system is the result of
a professional system designer. Changes in the outdoor
temperature have been taken into account in the design
of the system and the unit. If no changes occur in your
daily routines, there is no need to adjust the ventilation
system.
If you reduce the airflow in cold weather, ice may
accumulate in the ventilation unit. The risk is particularly
high in extremely cold weather and when the indoor air
humidity is high (the shower is used frequently and large
amounts of laundry are dried).
If the structure of the ventilation system needs to be
updated, contact the designer of the system.
Reducing ventilation may cause serious damage
to the structures of your house.
