Isolation - Before commencing work make sure that the
unit, switched live and Nuaire control are electrically
isolated from the mains supply and switched live supply.
The filters fitted inside the unit are protected with a
plastic film. Prior to commissioning remove the covers
(fig 15), take off the film and replace.

6.0 Commissioning
All infomation on this page is specific to the MVHR unit fitted
inside the enclosure, the front panel of the enclosure must be
removed to gain access.
2/
For the required air flow rates please refer to the design
specification for the property, follow 2.4, or refer to building
regulations ADF 2010.
3/
The unit is supplied with independent control for both normal and
boost airflows. (see fig. 14).
4/
Correct commissioning is essential to ensure the ventilation air
flowrates are met. It also ensures the unit is not over
ventilating
and causing excessive power consumption.
5/
Commissioning should be carried out in accordance with building
regulations document “Domestic ventilation compliance guide”.
www.planningportal.gov.uk/building regulations/approved
documents/partf/associated.
A calibrated moving vane
anemometer and hood will be required to carry out
commissioning.
6/
Adjustment valves should be locked in place to prevent further
adjustment.
7/
Once commissioned the home owner / tenant should be informed
that the unit should not be adjusted as it will have a detrimental
effect on the indoor air quality and could result in condensation
and mould growth. The label covering the control has an adhesive
panel which should be removed post commissioning to prevent
tampering.
8/
Speed 1 is limited to never exceed the speed 2, when commissioning
the speed 2 should always be set first.
6.1 Speed 3
The unit has to ability to override both speed 1 and speed 2 to operate
the fan to maximum airflow. See wiring diagram for details of operating
this facility.
6.2 Humidity adjustment
(AB unit only).
This product contains an internal humidity sensor fitted into the airflow
extracting from the wet rooms. When the unit senses that the humidity
exceeds the set point the unit will boost to that set by the commis-
sioned boost speed. The set point can be found on the front of the unit
(see Fig. 14) and is at its least sensitive when turned fully clockwise.
Note that the sensor is measuring humidity from all the wet rooms at
the same time and should not be relied on to solely boost the unit.
Additional switch should be used local to the wet rooms (see wiring
diagrams).
7.0 Status Indication
The status of the unit is indicated by a series of LED’s on the front
cover. The varients are listed below.
8.0 Thermal Bypass (Non AB models)
In the event of excessive outside temperatures, and to help prevent
over-heating, the supply fan will automatically reduce to a trickle
speed. Under these circumstances additional ventilation measures may
be required e.g. open windows or trickle vents (if fitted).
9.0 Maintenance/Cleaning
We recommend that the two G3 fiters are inspected after 6 months,
and replaced every 12 to 18 months. The filters can be removed from
the unit by removing the two filter covers on the front panel of the
unit. Take hold of the two circular tabs either end of the filter covers
and pull out.
The filter can now be extracted by pulling the removal loop on the
front edge of the filter. Once the filters have been inspected return
or replace them as necessary. Inspect the heat exchanger every
5 years. Generally check for damage and security of components.
