DIRECT CONNECTION of the HRV SUPPLY AIR STREAM to the SUPPLY AIR SIDE on the
FURNACE & EXHAUST AIR STREAM to the FURNACE COLD AIR RETURN
SIMPLIFIED INSTALLATION (GOOD)
OPTION 2
1. Furnace blower must operate when ventilation from HRV is required. The
furnace should be set to run continuously or interlocked with HRV.
See
furnace electrical connection on page 17.
2. Due to the differences in pressure between the HRV and the equipment it is
being connected to, the HRV‘s airflow must be balanced on site, using the
procedure found section "AIRFLOW BALANCING".
* In the case of a multi-zone system, please contact Fantech customer
service prior to installing any installation type requiring the use of the
furnace interlock"

HRV/Furnace ducting for Simplified Installation - Option 2
Suggested installation for:
• When bathroom and
kitchen already have local
exhaust system
• May be suitable for
retrofitting
Benefits:
Least expensive
installation type
Fantech heat recovery ventilators (HRV) that use a supply fan shutdown for frost preven-
tion do not include an outdoor air motorized damper. If you are using a simplified installa-
tion, i.e. connecting the HRV supply air duct to a furnace's return air duct, the HRV must
operate continuously. When the HRV is turned off, no warm exhaust air will flow through
the HRV but the furnace's fan will continue to draw in outdoor air directly into the furnace.
If it's cold outside, cold air will be introduced, without re-heating, directly into the furnace.
If the HRV is installed such that the homeowner may turn off the HRV during the winter, we
recommend installing a motorized damper between the HRV's supply air and the furnace's
return air duct that closes when the HRV is not operating. See wiring diagram (figure 1).
You may also choose to use a Fantech HRV that uses a recirculation defrost that incorpo-
rates an outdoor air damper.
