The installation of the heat recovery ventilation unit and
any associated ductwork and outlets must be in accord-
ance with the relevant requirements of the Health and
Safety Document No. 635 (The Electricity at Work Regu-
lations 1989), BS7671 (IEE Wiring Regulations). It should
also be in accordance with the relevant requirements of
the Local Authority, Building Regulations, The Building
Regulations (Scotland), The Building Regulations (North-
ern Ireland) and the relevant recommendations of the
following:

ers and supports. Requirements for strength
3.3 Regulations
If the system is to be operated with boilers or other gas
appliances which are dependent on the ambient air, the
ventilation must be balanced in accordance to the needs
of the appliance.
The following laws, rules, regulation standards and
guidelines in the valid version must be complied with for
the installation:
– Safety instructions and regulations for low-voltage in-
stallations EN 1010
– EST Good Practice guide 268 – Efficient ventilation of
buildings – A guide to specifiers

4.2 Installation
Site
Requirements
The installation site of the domestic ventilation unit
must be constantly frost-free and dry. The system in-
stallation must be planned in detail. Especially pay at-
tention to the positioning of the fresh air and exhaust
air ducts and to include sufficient sound insulation.
a
Caution!
The temperature of the device can be consider-
ably lower than the temperature of the room is
being installed. To avoid undesirable accumula-
tion of condensate, the circulation of fresh and
exhaust air must be provided in the room (basic
ventilation).
4.2.1
Installation Site of the Domestic Ventilation
Unit
Please note the following instructions before choosing
where to install the ventilation unit:
a
Caution!
When mounting the system it is absolutely nec-
essary to ensure the horizontal positioning of
the ventilation unit and an angle of > 0° and < 1°
in vertical position to ensure that the conden-
sation water can easily flow out of the unit.
The domestic ventilation unit is wall-mounted, prefera-
bly close to a drain outlet for the condensation water
drain.
– The ventilation unit must be installed with due consid-
eration of the requirement for adequate and practical
air ducting and services (fresh air and exhaust air,
electrical power). Ensure enough space is provided on
top of the unit and at its sides to be able to mount the
required air ducts, additional silencers and bypass
unit.
– The installation site must be selected so that the duct-
work distances to and from the domestic ventilation
unit are as short as possible.
– The wall to which the domestic ventilation unit is to be
mounted must offer sufficient load-carrying capacity
for the weight of the commissioned ventilation unit.
– It is possible that the supplied fixing elements do not
meet the requirements of the installation wall. The re-
quired mounting elements must be provided by the
customer.
– The condensed water drain must be connected with
the attached condensate drain trap to the water out-
let with the odour trap (siphon).
