HRV and ERV Typical Installations 7 Typical Installations for House Fully Ducted System (for Superior series only) This is a stand alone HRV/ERV system which is not connected to a force air system. Stale air is drawn from key areas of the home (bathroom, kitchen) while fresh air is supplied to main living areas. 2 Single Vents SVE-50 and SVI-50 Shown, 5 ft.
HRV and ERV Typical Installations (cont’d) 8 HORIZONTAL Note: • 30” clearance is recommended for cleaning of the core/servicing the unit. • Dampers are installed for horizontal installation. For vertical installation both dampers have to be turned so they can open properly and close when there is any backdraft. • Make sure no screw will interfere the function of the backdraft dampers.

Air Flow Balancing 10 Balancing Procedure It is required to have balanced air flows in an HRV/ERV. The volume of air brought in from the outside must equal the volume of air exhausted by the unit while running at normal speed. If the air flows are not properly balanced, then: • The HRV/ERV may not function at its maximum efficiency • A negative or positive air pressure may occur in the house or condo • The unit may not defrost properly Prior to balancing, ensure that: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Air Flow Balancing (cont’d) 11 Note:(Option #2)- Only for “superior” series DUCT DIAM. 5" 6" 7" *For balancing, extension box cover plate is provided with 3 holes on supply side and 3 holes on exhaust side. *Do not use pitot tube to open holes in the insulation as it may block/damage the pitot tube. *Take 3 readings on each hole and average all 9 readings for supply and same for exhaust. Opening area: 0.136 sq.ft. *After finish balancing, plug all six holes with plastic plugs provided with the unit.
Maintenance (cont’d) 12 Annual Maintenance Repeat steps 1 to 5 from the previous section and continue with the following steps: 1.
Troubleshooting (cont’d) 13 2. Senses cold air from Supply - Exhaust hood outside the house is blocked - HRV/ERV airflow improperly balanced - outdoor temperature is extremely cold - remove the blockage and clean the hood - have contractor balance the unit - placement of furniture or closed doors is restricting the movement of air in the home - install a duct heater 3.
