7.0 Air Flow Balancing
• A magnehelic gauge capable of measuring 0 to 0.25 inches water gauge (0 to 62.5 Pa) and 2 plastic
tubes.
• Two flow collars (the size will vary depending on duct diameter).
What you Need to Balance the Unit
Preliminary Stages for Balancing the Unit
Insert the flow collars in the duct at each location (A and B on Figure 20). Make sure their arrows are pointing in the direction of the
airflow. Tape collars in place temporarily.

Seal all the unit ductwork with tape. Close all windows and doors. Turn off all exhaust devices such as: range hoods, dryers and
bathroom fans. Make sure balancing dampers are fully opened (F and G in Figure 20 below).
Choose appropriate locations for the 2 flow collars according to Figure 20:
• On the exhaust air duct (first measuring location, A)
• On the fresh air distribution duct (second measuring location, B)
• At least 36”(914 mm) away from the unit; at least 12”(304 mm) before or after a 90°elbow; at least 12”(304 mm) away from a
register.

Balancing procedure
1.
Set the unit to high speed.
Make sure that the furnace blower is ON if the installation is in any way connected to the ductwork of the cold air return. If not leave
furnace blower OFF.
If the outside temperature is below 0°C / 32°F, make sure the unit is not running in defrost while balancing. (By waiting 10 minutes
after plugging the unit in, you are assured that the unit is not in a defrost cycle.)
2.
Place the magnehelic gauge on a level surface and adjust it to zero.
3.
Connect tubing from gauge to flow collar in exhaust air stream (location A in Figure 20 above).
Be sure to connect the tubes to their appropriate
high / low fitting. If the gauge reading drops to
below zero, reverse the tubing connections.
NOTE:It is better to start with the exhaust air flow reading because the exhaust typically has more
restriction than the fresh air, especially in cases of fully ducted and exhaust ducted installations.
Hold or place the magnehelic gauge upright and level. Record the reading.
