6. BALANCING THE UNIT WITH THE DUOTROL™ SYSTEM (LCH-4H & LCH-7H ONLY)

The light indicator shows you in which mode the  

Duotrol

TM

 System is in.

  

GREEN LIGHT Mode Selector

  

YELLOW LIGHT Balancing Mode

USING THE SELECTOR SWITCH 
NOTE TO INSTALLER

When on Balancing Mode, the Selector Switch  

allows you to choose the motor you want to set.
Closed Duotrol Cover 

1. INTER (Exhaust Motor) 

2. CONT (Both Motors) 

3. OFF (Supply Motor)

Step 1

  Press the (+) and (–) buttons on the Duotrol™ simultaneously 

until you see the yellow light. Once the indicator light turns 

yellow and the unit goes to high speed you are in balancing mode. 

When in balancing mode the selector switch on the Duotrol™ 

becomes the motor selector switch: 

INTER = Exhaust Airflow Motor 

CONT = Both Motors 

OFF = Supply Airflow Motor  

Step 2

  To adjust the 

(fresh air)

, select the «OFF» position on the 

Duotrol™. To adjust the airflow rates, press the 

(–)

 button to 

decrease or press the 

(+)

 button to increase the airflow rates 

until you reach the calculated fresh airflow requirements. 

Step 3

  To adjust the 

(stale air)

 select the «INTER» position on the 

Duotrol™. To adjust the airflow rates, press the 

(–)

 button to 

decrease or press the 

(+)

 button to increase the airflow rates 

until you reach the calculated stale airflow requirements. 

Step 4

  Once this is completed and you have balanced the airflow rates 

required for your application. Proceed to exit the balancing 

mode you must press 

(+)

 and 

(–)

 buttons on the Duotrol™ 

simultaneously until solid green LED appears then release. The 

indicator light will turn green to indicate normal operation mode. 

Step 5

  Mark down the balanced air flow rates information. Apply the 

label to the HRV access door for future reference (e.g. date, 

balance airflow rate, your name, phone number and business 

address). 

Step 6

  Once the HRV is balanced, switch to «CONT» on the Duotrol™ 

By using

 (+) 

 and

 (–)

 buttons you can set the continuous speed if 

required. 

Note : 

 

When selecting the 

CONT

 mode: The HRV will continuously exhaust 

stale indoor air to the outside and will introduce fresh outdoor 

air continuously on low speed except when there is a request for 

ventilation by one of the remote controllers then the ventilation system 

will exchange at high speed. 

(Recommended for maximum indoor air 

quality.) 

 

When selecting the 

INTER

 mode: The only HRV will only run on high 

speed when there is a request for ventilation. At this time the unit will 

run on high speed until the level of humidity is below the set point. The 

T-3 timer has completed its time period or once the cycles per hour has 

completed its cycle.

NOTICE: 

To balance the LCH-12H it will require balancing damper in the ductwork since the Duotrol does not offer this balancing feature at the current moment.
