1 Introduction and safety
The unit is a balanced ventilation system with
heat recovery in order to create energy-efficient
ventilation in houses. Balanced ventilation means
that pollutants from the kitchen, bathroom, wc(s)
and possibly the utility room are extracted, while the
same amount of fresh air is supplied into the living
room and bedrooms. Gaps under or near doors
ensure a good through-flow in the dwelling.
Ensure that the gaps under or
near doors are never obstructed.
For example by furniture, draught
excluders or deep-pile carpet.
A balanced ventilation system consists of:
■
The unit (A);
■
Duct system for the intake of outdoor air (B);
■
Duct system for the exhaust of indoor air (C);
■
Supply valves and/or grilles in the living room and
bedrooms (D);
■
Extract valves and/or grilles in the kitchen,
bathroom, wc and (if present) the utility room (E).
