INSTALLATION TYPES
Example only – duct configuration may differ depending on the model.
1. Stale air is drawn from areas requiring
local exhaust (bathroom, kitchen, laundry
room).
2. Fresh air is distributed to habitable rooms
(bedrooms, living room)
3. The HRV’s airflow must be balanced after
installation using the procedure found in
the section “AIRFLOW BALANCING.”
Suggested for:
• Hydronic baseboard
• In floor heating
• Electric baseboard
• Mini split heat pump
Benefits:
Provides the best fresh air distribution in
the house; lowest operation cost since the
furnace/air handler unit is not needed.
1. The furnace blower is set to run
continuously or interconnected with HRV
for proper fresh air distribution. See
furnace electrical connection on page 12.
2. Stale air is drawn from areas requiring
local exhaust (bathroom, kitchen, laundry
room).
3. Fresh air is supplied to the return air
plenum of the furnace.
4. Due to the difference in pressure, HRV's
airflow must be balanced on site using the
procedure found in the section “AIRFLOW
BALANCING.”
* In the case of a multi-zone system, please
contact Fantech customer service prior to
installing any installation type requiring the use
