  The Best  

Limited Warranty  

in the Business

•  The heat recovery polypropylene core has 

a limited lifetime warranty.

•  The motors found in all Powrmatic HRV’s 

require no lubrication, and are factory 
balanced to prevent vibration and promote 
silent operation.

•  The limited warranty covers normal use. 

It does not apply to any defects, 
malfunctions or failures as a result of 
improper installation, abuse, mishandling,  
misapplication, fortuitous occurrence or 
any other circumstances outside 
Powrmatic’s control.

•  Inappropriate installation or  

maintenance may result in the 
cancellation of the warranty.

•  Any unauthorized work will result in  

the cancellation of the warranty.

•  Powrmatic is not responsible for any  

incidental or consequential damages 
incurred in the use of the ventilation system.

•  Powrmatic is not responsible for providing 

an authorized service centre near the 
purchaser or in the general area.

•  Powrmatic reserves the right to supply 

refurbished parts as replacements.

•  Transportation, removal and installation 

fees are the responsibility of the purchaser.

•  The purchaser is responsible to adhering 

to all codes in effect in his area.

•  The warranty is limited to 5 years on 

parts and 7 years on the motor from the 
date of purchase, including parts replaced 
during this time period. If there is no 
proof of purchase available, the date 
associated with the serial number will be 
used for the beginning of the warranty 
period.

* This warranty is the exclusive and only 

warranty in effect relative to the ventilation 
system and all other warranties either 
expressed or implied are invalid.

Sizing (Example) for maximum airflow normally required.

HRVs are typically sized to ventilate the whole house at a minimum of 0.35 air changes per 
hour. To calculate, simply take the square footage of the house (including basement) and multi-
ply by the height of the ceiling to get cubic volume. Then, divide by 60 and multiply by 0.35.
Example:
