INSTALLATION
Installing Drain Line
Through normal operation and including defrost mode, the HRV may produce some condensation. This water should flow into a nearby
drain, or be taken away by a condensate pump. The HRV and all condensate lines must be installed in a space where the tempera-
ture is maintained above freezing point. A “P” trap should be made in the drain line. This will prevent odors from being drawn back
up into the unit.
LOCATION
The HRV must be located in a conditioned space where it will be possible to conveniently service the unit. Typically the HRV would be
located in the mechanical room, above a drop ceiling or an area close to the outside wall where the weatherhoods will be mounted.
Attic installations are not recommended due to extreme temperatures, and difficulty in performing, required service & maintenance.
Care must be taken to locate the recirculation port in an area that will not cause any unwanted contaminant to be drawn into the liv-
ing space during recirculation and defrost.
Connecting appliances to the HRV
It is not recommended, including:
- clothes dryer
- kitchen exhaust hoods
- combustion venting
- central vacuum system
These appliance may cause lint, dust or grease to collect in the HRV , damaging the unit.
NOTE:
Connecting any of these type of appliances to the HRV will invalidate your warranty
