The unit must remain switched on at all times to maintain ventilation within
the dwelling. Turning the unit off will cause long term damage to the unit
and building fabric.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction 
concerning the use of the appliance by a person for their safety. Children
should be supervised so that they do not play with the appliance.

1.0 Introduction

The WH1-1Z wall mounted range of units are designed to offer

 

improved sound levels and an aesthetically pleasing installation by

 

housing a Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery unit (MVHR)

 

and attenuator inside an acoustically lined enclosure.

The MVHR unit is fitted with two independent fans. Each fan has full

 

speed control for background and boost ventilation rates. To recover

 

heat from the extract air the heat exchanger block is utilised. The heat

 

exchanger can recover up to 95% of the normally wasted heat.

If the MVHR unit has integral automatic 

HX 

bypass 

(AB models only) 

The bypass damper shall open automatically via 

a wax actuator allowing the air to bypass the heat exchanger to 
deliver fresh filtered air during the warmer months.

2.0 Installation

Installation must be carried out by competent personnel in accordance
with the appropriate authority and conforming to all statutory 
governing regulations. All mains wiring must be in accordance with the
current I.E.E. Regulations, or the appropriate standards. Ensure that the
mains supply (Voltage, Frequency and Phase) complies with the rating
label. 

Please allow a minimum of 430mm in front of the enclosure for
MRXBOX95-WH1 models and 360mm for MRXBOX95AB-WH1 units.

The fan must be installed indoors, on a suitable wall away from direct
sources of frost, heat, water spray or moisture generation. 
For a vibration-free result the unit must be mounted to a non-
reverberant wall.

2.1 Transportation fixings

To prevent damage during transportation the product is shipped
with securing fixings, these can be found front and centre of the
enclosure top panel (fig.3).  These must be removed before use, fail-
ure to do so will result in excessive vibration and noise.  The screws
removed can be discarded and replaced with rubber caps provided.

Figure 3. Securing fixings.

2.2 Wall Mounting the MVHR Unit

The unit is designed for wall mounting only on a solid wall, a gypsum
block/plasterboard wall will not suffice, examples of suitable 
installation are shown overleaf. The wall brackets supplied should be
secured to the wall using suitable fixings (supplied by others) as per
the dimensions given in fig.4, the head of the chosen fixing should
protrude no more than 8mm from the wall bracket. The enclosure
assembly can then be lifted using suitable equipment and moved into
position so it is sitting directly on the wall brackets (ensuring the rear
panel of the enclosure is not in contact with the wall bracket fixings).
The enclosure can be secured to the wall brackets using the 4x M8 
fixings supplied. 

No part of enclosure should be in contact with the building structure,
the only components that should be in contact are the wall mounting
brackets.

Figure 4. Dimensions for fitting wall brackets.

Note: Care must be taken to ensure the unit is installed true in all 3 
dimensions. Failure to do so may result in overflow from the internal 
condensation drip tray.
