4. TYPICAL INSTALLATION

There are three common installation methods.

4.1 FULLY DUCTED SYSTEM

(Primarily for homes with radiant hot water or electric baseboard heating. See
Figure at right.)

Moist, stale air is exhausted from the high humidity areas in the home, such as
bathrooms, kitchen and laundry room. Fresh air is supplied to bedrooms and
principal living areas.

If required, bathroom fans and a range hood may be used to better exhaust stale
air.

Homes with more than one level require at least one exhaust register at the
highest level.

VH0024

4.2 EXHAUST DUCTED SYSTEM (SOURCE POINT VENTILATION)

(For homes with forced air heating. See Figure at right.)
Moist, stale air is exhausted from the high humidity areas in the home, such as

bathrooms, kitchen and laundry room. Fresh air is supplied to the cold air return or
the supply duct of the furnace.

If required, bathroom fans and a range hood may be used to better exhaust stale air.
Homes with more than one level require at least one exhaust register at the highest

level.
NOTE: For this type of installation, it is not essential that the furnace blower runs

when the unit is in operation, but we recommend it.

VH0025

4.3 SIMPLIFIED (VOLUME VENTILATION)

(For homes with forced air heating. See Figures A and B below.)
Fresh air and exhaust air flow through the furnace ducts which simplifies the installation.

The use of bathroom fans and range hood is suggested to better exhaust stale air.
NOTE: For the installation type shown in Figure B, furnace blower should be running when the unit is in operation.

5. INSTALLATION

!

WARNING

When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the
aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at
his own expenses.

!

WARNING

When performing installation, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.

INSPECTING THE BOX CONTENT

• Inspect the exterior of the unit for shipping damage. Ensure that there is no damage to the door, door latches, door hinges, dampers,
duct collars, cabinet, etc.

• Inspect the interior of the unit for damage. Ensure that the fan motor assembly, recovery core, insulation, dampers, damper actuator
and drain pan are all intact.

• If the unit was damaged during shipping, contact your local distributor. (Claims must be made within 24 hours after delivery.)

• Use checklist included with the unit to ensure that no parts are missing.

5.1 LOCATING AND MOUNTING THE UNIT

Choose an appropriate location for the unit:

• Within an area of the house where the temperature is kept above 10°C/50°F and below
40°C/104°F

• Away from living areas (dining room, living room, bedroom), if possible.

• So as to provide easy access to the interior cabinet for every three months and annual
maintenance, and to the control panel on the right hand side of the unit.

• Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible duct to and from
the unit.

• Close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off.

• Away from hot chimneys, electrical panel and other fire hazards.

• Allow for a power source (110 V standard outlet).

VD0064

CAUTION

Make sure the unit is level.

For vänEE Canadian models 1001 VRE, 1001 VRC, 2001 VRE and 2001 VRC,
hang the unit to ceiling joists with washers and 4 straps (included) (see figure
at right).

For Broan U.S.A. models HRV100H, HRV200H, ERV100HC, and ERV200HC,
hang the unit to ceiling joists with the 4 chains, springs and hooks (included)
(see figure at right).

5.2 PLANNING THE DUCTWORK

a) Follow the instructions in Section 5.3 on next page to determine the appropriate duct diameters for your system.
b) Keep it simple. Plan for a minimum number of bends and joints. Keep the length of insulated duct to a minimum.
c) Do not use wall cavities as ducts. Do not use branch lines smaller than 4” (102 mm) Ø.
d) Do not ventilate crawl spaces or cold rooms. Do not attempt to recover the exhaust air from a dryer or a range hood. This would cause

clogging of the recovery module. Use sheet metal for the kitchen exhaust duct.

e) Be sure to plan for at least one exhaust register on the highest lived-in level of the house if it has 2 floors or more.
