1. Furnace blower must operate when ventilation from HRV is required. The
furnace should be set to run continuously or interlocked with HRV.
2. Weatherhood arrangement is for illustrative purposes only. 3m (10')
minimum separation and 460 mm (18") above grade is recommended.
3. Due to the differences in pressure between the HRV and the equipment it is
being connected to, the HRV's airflow must be balanced on site, using the
procedure found in section “AIRFLOW BALANCING”.
