Safety 

Read all the safety information carefully before you use 

the ComfoAir Q for the first time to make sure that you 

use it safely and correctly. Refer to the full manual for the 

necessary information and the applicable safety regulations 

and installation regulations. 

WARNING
Electricity hazard

 Safety instructions – general

  

Always obey the safety regulations, 

warnings, comments and instructions 
in this quick guide. If you do not obey 
them, personal injury or damage to the 
ComfoAir Q can occur.

  

Installation, commissioning and 

maintenance must be carried out by 
a certified installer unless instructed 
differently. A non-certified installer can 
cause personal injury or damage the 
performance of the ventilation system

  

After installation, all parts that can cause 

personal injury are safely contained 
within the casing. Tools are required to 
open the casing.

  

Do not open the casing. The installer 

makes sure that all parts that can cause 
personal injury are safely contained 
within the casing. 

  

Do not disconnect the power to the 

ComfoAir Q, unless instructed otherwise 
in the ComfoAir Q manual. This can lead 
to a build-up of moisture and result in 
problems with mould.

  

Do not change the ComfoAir Q or the 

specifications given in this document. 
Changes can cause personal injury 
or damage the performance of the 
ventilation system.

 Safety instructions – maintenance

  

Make sure that no units are used with 

exposed fire (fireplace or stove). The 
ComfoAir Q can pull the smoke or gases 
from the fire into the house.

  

Get a (maintenance) engineer to inspect 

and clean the ComfoAir Q at least 
every two years to make sure that the 
performance of the ventilation system 
will not decrease. 

  

Replace the filters at least every 

six months to keep the indoor air 
comfortable, healthy and the ComfoAir Q 
clean. 

  

Clean all valves and grilles at least 

every six months to make sure that the 
capacity of the ventilation system will 
not decrease.

 Safety instructions – installation

  

Always obey the general and locally 

applicable construction, safety and 
installation regulations. 

  

Install the ComfoAir Q in a frost-free 

space (minimum 4°C to 5°C) to prevent 
the condensation drain from freezing.

  

Remove the unit plug from the wall 

outlet to disconnect the unit from the 
power supply. If the unit does not have 
a plug, use a switch as specified in EN 
60335-1 (with switch-off of all poles and 
3 mm overvoltage category III). 

  

Always disconnect the power to the 

ComfoAir Q before working on the 
ventilation system. When the ComfoAir 
Q is open while in operation, it can 
cause personal injury. Make sure that 
the ComfoAir Q cannot be set to ON 
accidentally. 

  

Always connect air ducts of at least 

900 mm to the ComfoAir Q before you 
connect the unit to the power supply 
to make sure that you cannot touch 
the motor while the ComfoAir Q is in 
operation. 

  

Always take ESD protective measures 

when you work with electronics, such as 
wearing an antistatic wristband. Static 
electricity can cause damage to the 
electronics. 

  

Connect the ComfoAir Q to a 230 V-50 

Hz power supply. Any other power 
supply will damage the ComfoAir Q.
