•
Seals for the unit’s chambers and the seals on all additional penetrations through the
housing of the unit
•
The fresh air (ODA) and exhaust (EHA) dampers are open
Hot water coil:
•
Leaks in the water system connections to the heat exchanger
Electric heater:
•
The airflow velocity must not drop below 1 m/s.
Cold water coil
•
Leaks in the water system connections to the heat exchanger
Direct cooler
•
Leaks in the water system connections to the heat exchanger
Plate-type recovery heat exchanger:
•
