2.0 General Overview
2.1 The product incorporates a Heat Exchanger that recovers the heat energy from the "extract air" that would
normally be lost with other ventilation systems. It does this using minimal power consumption as the product
uses EC low energy motors.
2.1.1 Depending on the way your ComfoAir 185 WM unit has been installed, the specific operation may vary.
The unit has either two or three speeds available:
ZGS2 switch markings: Low (I) & High (II) operation

ZGRC1 boost and system status controller markings:
Low (I) & High (II) operation
(See section 3.1.8 for system status details)
Note: Other manufacturers switches may show different markings, or your unit may be connected to
a Building Management System (BMS).
2.1.2 To maintain good indoor air quality within the dwelling it is important that the ventilation system remains in
operation at all times unless powered down periodically for maintenance/repair.
