WARNING
BE SURE TO DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL POWER BEFORE SERVICING THE SYSTEM.
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE REQUIRED
SEVEN-STEP SCHEDULE
With routine prevention maintenance, you can avoid unnecessary
problems and ensure the effectiveness of your ERV and prolong its life. For
specific routine maintenance please contact your local HVAC contractor.
1. Clean or replace air filters. Filters, which are located within the ERV
should be cleaned every two to three months. Filters should be vacuumed
first, then washed with a mild soap and water. Most washable filters will last
several years before needing to be replaced.
2. Clean the exterior intake and exhaust vents of obstructions.Check the
outside vents regularly to ensure that the screen openings are not
obstructed by grass, bushes, leaves, snow or other debris.
3. Clean and inspect the energy recovery core twice a year and clean it as
required (consult your owner’s manual for instructions on inspecting and
cleaning the core). A build-up of dust and dirt can restrict airflow and reduce
the efficiency of your ERV. After inspection and cleaning, make sure the core
is replaced right-side-up.
4. Clean the condensate drain and pan. Twice a year, check the condensate drain and tubing to ensure that they are open and free-flowing. The tubing can
be disconnected for cleaning. The condensate drain must have a “trap” in the tubing that traps a quantity of water – to prevent air from entering the ERV via
this tubing.
5. Service the fans. The fans on the ERV’s are designed to operate continuously without lubrication. Inspect the blower fans periodically for dirt on the blades,
and remove it by gently brushing the blades or using a vacuum cleaner.
6.
Clean the grilles and inspect the ductwork. Clean the grilles when they are dusty. At least once a year, visually inspect the ductwork leading to and from
the ERV. Damaged ducts can lead to condensation problems, including wet insulation, water on the floor and, ice build-up. If the insulation itself is damaged.
7. Arrange for an annual servicing. Your ERV should undergo annual general servicing by a certified contractor and who is familiar with your ERV. If possible,
have your furnace and ERV serviced at the same time; this will result in less inconvenience and cost than two separate visits.
