INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

Your ventilation system should be installed in conformance with the appropriate provincial or state
requirements or in the absence of such requirements with the current edition of the National
Building Code, and / or ASHRAE’s “ good Engineering Practice”.

IMPORTANT - 

PLEASE READ THIS

MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING UNIT

CAUTION

- Before installation, careful consideration must be given

to how this system will operate if connected to any other piece of
mechanical equipment, i.e. a forced air furnace or air handler, oper-
ating at a higher static. After installation, the compatibility of the two
pieces of equipment must be confirmed by measuring the airflow’s of
the Heat / Energy Recovery Ventilators.
It is always important to assess how the operation of any HRV/ERV
may interact with vented combustion equipment (i.e. Gas Furnaces,
Oil Furnaces, Wood Stoves, etc.).

NEVER

- install a ventilator in a situation where its normal opera-

tion, lack of operation or partial failure may result in the backdrafting
or improper functioning of vented combustion equipment!!!
