IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING UNIT

CAUTION - Before installation, careful consideration must be given to how this system will operate if connected to any other piece of mechanical equipment, i.e. a forced air furnace or air handler, operating at a higher static. After installation, the compatibility of the two pieces of equipment must be confirmed by measuring the airflow’s of the Heat Recovery or Energy Recovery Ventilators by using the balancing procedure found in this manual.

It is always important to assess how the operation of any HRV/ERV may interact with vented combustion equipment (i.e. Gas Furnaces, Oil Furnaces, Wood Stoves, etc.).

NEVER - install a ventilator in a situation where its normal operation, lack of operation or partial failure may result in the backdrafting or improper functioning of vented combustion equipment!!!

Your ventilation system should be installed in conformance with the appropriate provincial or state requirements or in the absence of such requirements with the current edition of the National Building Code, and / or ASHRAE’s “ Good Engineering Practices”.

Sizing (Example) for maximum airflow normally required.

HRVs are typically sized to ventilate the whole house at a minimum of 0.35 air changes per hour. To calculate, simply take the square footage of the house (including basement) and multiply by the height of the ceiling to get cubic volume. Then, divide by 60 and multiply by 0.35.

Example:

Basement

Total Ventilation Requirements (add last column )

=

Introducing the NEW Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV). As with previous designs, incoming fresh outdoor air is filtered before it is heated by the stale outgoing air through a aluminum heat recovery core. The HRV then distributes the preheated fresh filtered air throughout the home by direct ductwork installed specifically for the HRV or through the ductwork of a forced-air system.

SPECIFICATIONS

CASE 22 gauge galvanized steel on the HRV-200D & 24 gauge galvanized steel on the HRV 150D. Baked powder coated paint. Insulated with 1" (25 mm) high density polystyrene foam to prevent condensation and meet the requirements of the Underwriters Laboratories 94HF.

MOTORS Two (2) German-manufactured, factory-balanced ebm™ motors with backward curved blades. Motors come with permanently lubricated sealed bearings guarantee long life and maintenance-free operation. Seven (7) year limited warranty.*

CORE Aluminum heat recovery core configured for an efficient cross-flow ventilation. Core is 9" x 9" (229 x 229 mm) with a 15" (380 mm) depth HRV 150D or 12" x 12" (305 x 305 mm) with a 15" (380 mm) depth HRV 200D. Cores are manufactured to withstand extreme temperature variations.

FILTERS Two (2) Washable Electrostatic Panel Type Air Filters, HRV 150D is 8.5" (216mm) x 15" (380mm) x 0.125" (3mm), HRV 200D is 11.75" (298mm) x 15" (380mm) x 0.125" (3mm).

CONTROLS External three (3) position (Low/Stand By/Medium) rocker switch that will offer continuous ventilation. We offer a variety of external controls. (see optional controls)

DEFROST A preset 5 minute defrost sequence is activated at an outdoor air temperature of 23˚F (-5˚C) and lower.

During the defrost sequence, its mechanism uses a motorized damper to temporarily block the incoming fresh air stream allowing the warm air from the home to circulate through the HRV. The exhaust blower shuts down & the supply blower switches into high speed to maximize the effectiveness of the defrost strategy.

The unit then returns to normal operation for 25 minutes, and continues cycle.

SERVICEABILITY Core, filters, motors and drain pan can be easily serviced through latched access door. Core conveniently slides out with ease on an improved railing system. Electrical box, placed on the outside of the unit, can also be easily accessed.

* For details concerning warranties, please visit your local dealer.

Introducing the NEW Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV). As with previous designs, incoming fresh outdoor air is filtered before it is heated by the stale outgoing air through a aluminum heat recovery core. The HRV then distributes the preheated fresh filtered air throughout the home by direct ductwork installed specifically for the HRV or through the ductwork of a forced-air system.

SPECIFICATIONS

CASE 22 gauge galvanized steel on the HRV-200 & 24 gauge galvanized steel on the HRV-150. Baked powder coated paint. Insulated with 1" (25 mm) high density polystyrene foam to prevent condensation and meet the requirements of the Underwriters Laboratories 94HF.

MOTORS Two (2) German-manufactured, factory-balanced ebm™ motors with backward curved blades. Motors come with permanently lubricated sealed bearings guarantee long life and maintenance-free operation. Seven (7) year limited limited warranty.*

CORE Aluminum heat recovery core configured for an efficient cross-flow ventilation. Core is 9" x 9" (229 x 229 mm) with a 15" (380 mm) depth HRV-150 or 12" x 12" (305 x 305 mm) with a 15" (380 mm) depth HRV-200. Cores are manufactured to withstand extreme temperature variations.

FILTERS Two (2) Washable Electrostatic Panel Type Air Filters, HRV-150 is 8.5" (216mm) x 15" (380mm) x 0.125" (3mm), HRV-200 is 11.75" (298mm) x 15" (380mm) x 0.125" (3mm).

CONTROLS External three (3) position (Low/Stand By/Medium) rocker switch that will offer continuous ventilation. We offer a variety of external controls. (see optional controls)

DEFROST A preset 5 minute defrost sequence is activated at an outdoor air temperature of 23˚F (-5˚C) and lower.

During the defrost sequence, the supply blower shuts down & the exhaust blower switches into high speed to maximize the effectiveness of the defrost strategy.

The unit then returns to normal operation for 25 minutes, and continues cycle.

SERVICEABILITY Core, filters, motors and drain pan can be easily serviced through latched access door. Core conveniently slides out with ease on an improved railing system. Electrical box, placed on the outside of the unit, can also be easily accessed.

Introducing the NEW Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRV). As with previous designs, incoming fresh outdoor air is filtered before it is heated by the stale outgoing air. The HRV then distributes the preheated fresh filtered air throughout the home by direct ductwork installed specifically for the HRV or through the ductwork of a forced-air system.

SPECIFICATIONS

CASE 22 gauge galvanized steel. Baked powder coated paint. Insulated with 1" (25 mm) high density polystyrene foam to prevent condensation and meet the requirements of the Underwriters Laboratories 94HF.

MOTORS Two (2) German-manufactured, factory-balanced ebm™ motors with backward curved blades. Motors come with permanently lubricated sealed bearings guarantee long life and maintenance-free operation. Seven (7) year limited warranty.*

CORES Two (2) aluminum heat recovery cores configured for an efficient cross-flow ventilation. Core is 12" x 12" (305 x 305 mm) with a 15" (380 mm) depth. Cores are manufactured to withstand extreme temperature variations.

FILTERS Two (2) synthetic high quality filters for better indoor air quality and clean air.

CONTROLS External three (3) position (Low/Stand By/Medium) rocker switch that will offer continuous ventilation. We offer a variety of external controls. (see optional controls)

DEFROST A preset 5 minute defrost sequence is activated at an outdoor air temperature of 23˚F (-5˚C) and lower.

During the HRV-300 defrost sequence, its mechanism uses a motorized damper to temporarily block the incoming fresh air stream allowing the warm air from the home to circulate through the HRV. The exhaust blower shuts down & the supply blower switches into high speed to maximize the effectiveness of the defrost strategy.

The unit then returns to normal operation for 25 minutes, and continues cycle.

SERVICEABILITY Core, filters, motors and drain pan can be easily serviced through latched access door.

OPERATION

A Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is designed to bring fresh air into a building while exhausting an equal amount of stale air. During the winter months, the incoming cold fresh air is warmed by utilizing the heat recovered from the stale air before it is exhausted to the outdoors. During summer months when the indoor space is air conditioned, the HRV will help in cooling the incoming fresh air with the stale air that is being exhausted.

Our HRV’s are designed to run continuous or on intermittent, giving the homeowner complete control over their air quality. Continuous low speed ventilation is recommended, which will help eliminate carbon dioxide, voc’s and other gases as well as freshen up the home. Intermittent high speed ventilation can be obtained through a variety of optional remote controls found in this manual (page 13 ). Below are some examples of seasonal operation of an HRV.

Winter:

Humidity control is very important during the winter months. This is when problems will be most apparent since condensation on the windows will often occur. The colder the outside temperature, the greater the risk of condensation in the home. The average relative humidity should be maintained between (30-60) to avoid conden-

sation. Low speed continuous ventilation with high speed override is recommended.

Summer:

The air is sometimes hot and humid. To stop the warm humid air from entering, set the dehumidistat at its highest level. If the digital control is installed, the air exchanger can be set to cycle the unit on and off as desired from that wall control. However, continuous ventilation is recommended.

Spring:

Temperatures are more moderate and become warmer each day. To keep the humidity and temperature uniform, set the dehumidistat higher (if installed). You may also switch the HRV to standby mode if desired.

Fall:

Rain and rapid temperature changes make it difficult to control the internal humidity level and may result in condensation on the windows. A remote dehumidistat may help give greater control over the inside environment.

The entire line of Heat Recovery comes equipped with our new electronic uni-control board which offers a wide variety of features making it the ultimate ventilation control system. Our engineers have used the latest technology to provide solid, trouble free operation under any conditions.

The uni-control board offers stand alone operating capabilities as well as an exclusive 2 wire communication to most external controls. The troublefree optional controls include: two different rotary dial dehumidistats, an air quality sensor (3 wire communication required), a 15 minute remote push-button timer, as well as the most sophisticated line of remote wall mounted controls, the digital control.

An on-board diagnostic LED helps find problems quickly and efficiently. For example the LED can be used to signal a broken or shorted electronic wall control wire. Electronic air temperature probe gives this board accurate readings in order to minimize unnecessary defrost operation, and the on-board jumpers provide the user with the option of adjusting defrost time and sequence to optimize performance under abnormal conditions. The defrost operation is automatic and is usually never adjusted.

1. Continuous / Ventilation Mode

In this mode of operation both fans are operating and exchanging air with

the outside. The heat recovery venti-

lator (HRV) constantly exchanges the air at the rate you select, either at low or medium speed, and switches to high speed when activated by an optional remote control. The "Low" and "Med" fan speed selection will cause the unit to operate in continuous exchange mode at an exchange rate of 35% and 50% maximum airflow rating respectively. Continuous mode is recommended, since pollutants are slowly but constantly being generated in your house.

The automatic defrost cycle consists of a damper defrost which allows air

to recirculate throughout the unit & home. When the supply air stream

temperature goes below -5°C (23°F), the exhaust motor shuts down, the supply motor goes to high speed, and a damper closes the supply, opening a 5th collar. The ambient air is then recirculated through the unit & home for a period of 5 minutes. The unit will then resume normal operation for a time period of 25 minutes. This damper defrost cycle continues until the supply air stream rises above 0°C (32°F). The recirculation feature can be obtained with the use of an optional digital control.

the "Standby" mode only be used if your system is equipped with an optional external control, in which case, the unit would activate to "High" fan speed, until the control is satisfied and then return to standby (off).

The automatic defrost cycle con-

sists of a fan shutdown. When the

supply air stream temperature goes below -5°C (23°F), the sup-

ply motor shuts down and the exhaust motor goes into high speed. Ambient air is passed through the unit for a period of 5 minutes. The supply motor will then re-start and run at the preset speed. The exhaust motor will also slow down to the preset speed, and the unit will operate in the run cycle for 25 minutes. This fan shutdown defrost cycle continues until the supply air stream rises above 0°C (32°F).
