INTRODUCTION

The Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is used to exchange indoor

stale air with outside fresh air. The HRV unit is equipped with a
special heat recovery core which transfers sensible heat between

the fresh incoming air and stale exhaust air.
It is required to locate the HRV in a conditioned space. Special
attention should be given to condensate drain, duct application,

balancing the HRV, and locating unit for easy access and routine
maintenance. The cross- flow design core allows entering and

leaving air streams to transfer heat energy without mixing.

LOCATION

Inspect Equipment

Move carton to final installation location. Remove the HRV from
carton taking care not to damage unit. Remove all packaging and

inspect unit for damage. Remove parts bag from inside unit. File
claim with shipping company if shipment is damaged or

incomplete.
