2.4 Installation conditions
In order to determine whether the ComfoAir can be in-
stalled in a certain area, the following aspects must be
taken into account:
■
The ComfoAir must be installed according to the gen-
eral and locally applicable safety and installation regu-
lations of power and water companies, as well as the
instructions in this manual.
■
The system must be fitted to allow sufficient room
around the ComfoAir for the air connections and
supply and exhaust ducts as well as for carrying out
maintenance activities.
■
The ComfoAir must be installed in a frost-free space.
The condensation must be drained off frost-free, at a
gradient and incorporate a 'U' bend.
■
The ComfoAir should not be installed in areas with
higher average humidity because of condensation
forming on the out side of the ventilation unit.
■
The room must offer the following provisions:
- Air duct connections.
- 230V electrical connection.
- Provisions for the condensation drain.
- Wiring for an wired switch.
■
A gap should be left near the doors in order to ensure
effective and draughtfree airflow in the house. A gap
under the inside doors must be atleast 0.39 inch (10
mm).
If these openings are obstructed, due to draught
blockers or deep-pile carpet, the airflow in the
house will stagnate. As a result, system perfor-
mance will be compromised or fail altogether.
2.5 Installation of the ComfoAir
2.5.1 Transport and unpacking
Take the necessary precautions when transporting and
unpacking the ComfoAir.
Make sure the packing material is disposed in
an environmentally friendly manner.
2.5.2 Checking the delivery
Contact your supplier immediately in case of damage or
an incomplete delivery. The delivery must include:
■
ComfoAir;
Check the identification plate to ensure that it is the
required type.
■
Ceiling mounting set;
■
Wall mounting bracket;
■
Documentation.
The ComfoAir is supplied in the following types:
Type
ComfoAir 200 L Luxe ERV
ComfoAir 200 R Luxe ERV
Meaning of the suffixes:
* L
= Left version
* R
= Right version
* ERV = Contains a enthalpy exchanger by default.
* Luxe = Contains a connection board with extra function by
default.
ComfoSense panel (optional) can be ordered separately.
2.6 Mounting of the ComfoAir
The ComfoAir can be mounted two ways:
■
On the ceiling;
■
On the wall.
2.6.1 Mounting on the ceiling
Mount the ComfoAir to a ceiling with a minimum mass of
at least 0.28 lb/in
2
(200 kg/m
2
).
B
A
C
1. Fasten the four mounting brackets (A) (using the
screws supplied) to the sides of the ComfoAir.
2. Fasten the two spacer brackets (C) (using the screws
supplied) to the top of the ComfoAir on the side of
the condensation drain (B). As long as the ceiling is
level, this ensures a run-off of 2% to the condensa-
tion drain.
3. Mark the position of the mounting points on the ceil-
ing.
4. Mount four pieces of studding (M8 or M10) extending
9.51 feet (290 cm) below the ceiling.
5. Screw suitable (securing) rings and nuts on the four
rods.
6. Hang the unit on the rods and then screw the lock-
nuts tight.
Allow a minimum 2% run-off to the condensation
drain. If the ceiling is horizontal, the spacer brackets
will automatically ensure that the ComfoAir hangs at
the correct angle.
7. Mount the condensation drain to the ComfoAir with a
coupling or removable pipe.
8. The air exhaust duct must be fitted with a double-
walled or insulated roof passage. This prevents the
formation of condensation between the roof board-
ing. In addition, the air exhaust duct must drain in the
direction of the ComfoAir.
9. To prevent unnecessary temperature loss in either
the summer or the winter, we recommend fitting ther-
mal and damp-proof insulation to the supply ducts
from the ComfoAir up to the supply valves.
Ensure that there is enough room under the ComfoAir
for carrying out maintenance. The ComfoAir does not re-
quire any space at the sides for effective operation.
Do not mount the side of the ComfoAir against
the wall due to the risk of impact sound.
