NOTE:  Due to ongoing research and product development, 

specifications, ratings and dimensions are subject to change without notice.

Before

 

installation,

 

careful

 

consideration

 

must

 

be

 

given

 

to

 

how

 

this

 

system

 

will

 

operate

 

if

 

connected

 

to

 

any

 

other

 

piece

 

of

 

mechanical

 

equipment,

 

i.e.

 

a

 

forced

 

air

 

furnace

 

or

 

air

 

handler,

 

operating

 

at

 

a

 

higher

 

static.

 

After

 

installation,

 

the

 

compatibility

 

of

 

the

 

two

 

pieces

 

of

 

equipment

 

must

 

be

 

confirmed

 

by

 

measuring

 

the

 

airflows

 

of

 

the

 

Heat

 

Recovery

 

Ventilator

 

(HRV)

 

by

 

using

 

the

 

balancing

 

procedure

 

found

 

in

 

this

 

manual.

It

 

is

 

always

 

important

 

to

 

assess

 

how

 

the

 

operation

 

of

 

any

 

HRV

 

may

 

interact

 

with

 

vented

 

combustion

 

equipment

 

(ie.

 

Gas

 

Furnaces,

 

Oil

 

Furnaces,

 

Wood

 

Stoves,

 

etc.).

NEVER

 

install

 

a

 

ventilator

 

in

 

a

 

situation

 

where

 

its

 

normal

 

operation,

 

lack

 

of

 

operation

 

or

 

partial

 

failure

 

may

 

result

 

in

 

the

 

backdrafting

 

or

 

improper

 

functioning

 

of

 

vented

 

combustion

 

equipment!

Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV) are designed to provide 
fresh air while exhausting an equal amount of stale air.

The  HRV  is  equipped  with  an  aluminum  core.  The 
device  uses  the  stale  air  that  is  being  exhausted  to 
condition  the fresh air as it is being brought in.
These  instructions  are  intended  as  a  general  guide  and 
do  not  supersede  local  codes  in  any  way.  Consult 
authorities who have jurisdiction before installation.

General

Do

 

not

 

apply

 

electrical

 

power

 

to

 

the

 

unit

 

until

 

installation

 

has

 

been

 

fully

 

completed

 

(including

 

low

wiring).
