NSTALLATION

Installation Notes:

•

The HRV/ERV must be balanced.

•

Unit should be balanced on high speed with the furnace

blower on.

•

It is recommended that the furnace blower run

continuously or HRV/ERV operation be interlocked with

the furnace blower. Refer to building code.

•

The duct configuration may change depending on the

HRV/ERV model.

•

A backdraft damper is recommended in the exhaust air

duct to prevent outdoor air from entering the unit.

•

The airflow must be confirmed on site using the

balancing procedures found in this guide.

Spring-Loaded Backdraft Damper (recommended):

Install the Backdraft Damper with the leaf hinge

vertical. The damper is installed on the “Stale Air to Outside”

Collar.

Warning

•

Check local codes/authority having jurisdiction for acceptance.

•

Applications such as greenhouses, atriums, swimming pools, saunas, etc. have unique ventilation

requirements which should be addressed with an isolated ventilation system.

•

Weatherhood arrangement is for drawing purposes only. Check local codes/authority having

jurisdiction for acceptance.

•

Backdraft dampers are recommended for the stale air to outside air duct. This damper prevents

outdoor air from entering the HRV/ERV during the operation of the furnace/air handler while the

HRV/ERV

is in standby, off, or recirculating.
