HRV/ERV Operational Modes Functionality

4

Off Mode:

 HRV/ERV fans are off. Defrost damper is closed to prevent cold air from entering the unit.

Normal Mode:

 In Normal mode HRV/ERV fans run and the unit exchanges indoor air with outdoor air. The 

airflow exchange can be adjusted in four preset airflow values. Normal Mode is intended to be requested by the 
user for long time HRV/ERV operation.

High Ventilation Mode:

 In High Ventilation Mode the 

 fans run and the unit exchanges indoor air 

with outdoor air, as in Normal Mode, but the airflow level is much higher. The airflow exchange can be adjusted 
in four preset airflow values. High Ventilation Mode is intended to be requested by the user if he/she requires 
quick air exchange in the house. The 

 can run in High in Ventilation mode for unlimited period of time 

or for one of three preset timeout periods: 1,2 or 3 hours.

Energy Saving Mode:

 The 

 will switch to Energy Saving Mode when it is requested by the User, 

from the Wall Mount Unit. In Energy Saving Mode 

 will automatically run in Auto mode 20 minute per 

every 4 hours. The rest of the time the unit will stay in OFF mode. The defrost damper is closed to prevent cold-
air from entering the unit and the first running will start immediately after the 

 was set to Energy 

Saving mode.

Humidity Mode:

 In Humidity Mode, the 

 switches to High Ventilation Mode automatically when the 

indoor humidity level exceeds the humidity set point, and returns to Normal Mode when the humidity level 
becomes lower than the set point. The humidity level is measured by an external humidity sensor mounted in 
the inlet of 

 station #3. The Humidity Mode can be disabled by the user by setting the humidity set 

point to zero.

Recirculation Mode:

 When the User requests Recirculation Mode from the Wall Mount Unit, the 

 

Control will place the supply fan into high speed with damper closed. Exhaust fan is off in this mode. 

Manual Balancing Mode: (Optional for unit without automatic balancing)

 In manual balancing Mode, fan 

speed can be manually adjusted by operating Wall Mount display in programming mode. (refer to page 7)

Defrost Mode: 

In Defrost mode the HRV/ERV re-circulates or only exhausts indoor air through the heat 

exchanger, for a prescribed length of time over a prescribed time period. The unit automatically switches to 
Defrost mode, when the outdoor air is below -5°C, and return to the last requested mode when the outdoor air 
temperature becomes above -5°C. The period of time when the unit re-circulates or exhausts indoor air, will 
lengthen as the external temperature lowers. While re-circulating, the unit runs in High Ventilation Mode with 
supply fan shutting off and damper closed. While non-recirculating (exhausting), the exhaust fan runs in High 
Ventilation Mode with supply fan shutting off and damper closed. Outdoor temperature is measured by a 
thermo sensor, located in the HRV/ERV outdoor air intake duct. The Defrost Mode is an automatic mode which 
cannot be enabled/disabled by the user, but the user can select from two defrost methods - recirculation or 
non-recirculation and also one of nine preset maps for the defrost period length depending on the outdoor 
temperature and type of heat exchanger / core. (see page 6)

The Timer Switch Unit consists of 3 LEDs and 1 push button. The Timer 
Switch Unit can put the unit in to High Speed Mode for the set time on the 
Timer Switch (20 min, 40 min, 60 min), when timed cycle is complete the 
unit returns to normal run mode set on Wall Control unit.

When a Timer Switch is activated, the other Timer Switch Blinks its LED1  
and Wall Mount Unit light up REMOTE icon on LCD indicating that 

 has been forced in to High Speed Mode. If there are more than 

one Timer Switch is activated the Timer Switch having longest time wins 
and only that Timer Switch can turn off the timer switch operation.

All 3 LEDs will blink to indicate error if the Control Board reports error or the 
Timer Switch loses communication with the Control Board.

Timer Switch (Optional)

(P/N # 02-092304

 of the timer)

Model # TC100-5V

Important Note:-

 When installing timers or time delay switches, make sure 

                             that they are for appropriate HRV/ERV models.
