Congratulations!

You have made an excellent choice! The operating principle of your Heat Recovery Ventilator 
or your Energy Recovery Ventilator will give you personal comfort you have never known 
before.

We have prepared this User Guide especially for you. Please read it carefully to ensure you 
obtain full benefit from your unit. Over the coming months, you will increasingly appreciate the 
feeling of living in a more comfortable home.

Please take note that this manual uses the following symbols to emphasize 
particular information:

Identifies an instruction which, if not followed, might cause serious personal injuries 
including possibility of death.

Identifies an instruction which, if not followed, may severely damage the unit and/
or its components.

NOTE: Indicates supplementary information needed to fully complete an instruction.

We welcome any suggestions you may have concerning this guide and the unit, and we 
would appreciate hearing your comments on ways to better serve you.

Please forward all correspondence to us at the address indicated on the product registration 
card included with this guide.

CAUTION

Make sure at all times that the outdoor intake and exhaust hoods are free from any 
snow during the winter season. It is important to check your unit during a big snow 
storm, so it doesn’t draw in any snow. If this is the case, please operate the unit in 
recirculation mode (if available), or turn it OFF for a few hours.
Do not use your unit during construction or renovation of your house or when 
sanding drywall. This type of dust may damage your system.
Since the electronic control system of the unit is incorporated with a microprocessor, 
it may not operate correctly because of external noise or very short power failure. 
If this happens, unplug the unit and wait approximately 10 seconds. Then, plug the 
unit in again.

In order to ensure your ventilation unit remains in good working condition, you must use 
Venmar Ventilation ULC genuine replacement parts only. The Venmar Ventilation ULC 
genuine replacement parts are specially designed for each unit and are manufactured 
to comply with all the applicable certification standards and maintain a high standard of 
safety. Any third party replacement part used may cause serious damage and drastically 
reduce the performance level of your unit, which will result in premature failing. Venmar 
Ventilation ULC also recommends to contact a Venmar Ventilation ULC certified service 
depot for all replacement parts and repairs.

When leaving the house for a long period of time (more than two weeks), a 
responsible person should regularly check if the unit operates adequately.
If the ductwork runs through an unconditioned space (e.g.: attic), the unit must 
operate continuously except when performing maintenance and/or repair. Also, the 
ambient temperature of the house should never drop below 18°C (65°F). At least 
once a year, the unit mechanical and electronic parts should be inspected by 
qualified service personnel.
