ACUTHERM ADVANTAGE - Manual

Adv square - Baffle Optional Accessory

An optional baffle is available to provide 3-way and 2-way air 

patterns.

Installation Instructions

CAutiOn:

 Adhesive tape bonds quickly. Acutherm recommends 

a practice installation to locate the baffle BEFORE removing 

the tape pads.

1.  Clean backside edge of plaque where baffle is to be 

installed.

2.  With short flange of baffle facing away from opening, tilt 

top edge of baffle into opening on side of diffuser to be 

blocked. Short flange on baffle must face out.

3.  Carefully align outer corner of reference tab A with corner 

of plaque.

4.  Remove protective film from 3 tape pads.
5.  Rotate bottom edge of baffle into opening until edge of 

flange is flush with edge of plaque.

6.  Apply firm pressure at three tape tabs to secure baffle in 

place. 

Additional openings can be blocked for 2-way air patterns 

using the same procedure.

supply Air temperature sensing

All master units have a temperature sensor located near the inlet for automatic heating / cooling changeover.

For automatic changeover the Advantage uses a dynamic neutral mode for optimal use of the supply air. Basically if the supply air 
can help the Advantage meet the room set point it is used as such. For example if the supply air is 70F and the room temperature 
is 80F with a set point of 72F, the Advantage will consider the supply air as cold and modulate appropriately. Please note however 
its typically difficult to cool a room with supply air temperatures above 60F.

Changeover and dynamic neutral mode is as follows:

1. 

Heating Mode

 - Supply air temperature warmer than room temperature by 2°F (1°C) 

2. 

Neutral Mode

 - Supply air within 2°F (1°C) of room air

3. 

Cooling Mode

 - Supply air temperature 2°F (1°C) below room temperature)

If Dynamic neutral mode is not required user can force HOT and COLD switch points in the LCD thermostat menu. This method is 
not recommended, but is available for unique circumstances.
