EFFICIENT USE OF THE VENTILATION

A correctly designed and used ventilation system reduces costs and saves energy. In addition, it promotes the health of both the living environment and the residents.

• Always use the ventilation system according to the

plan drawn up for your home – around the year.

• Clean or replace the filters when the system advises

you to do so and vacuum-clean the interior of the unit regularly.

• Open the lid of the ventilation unit and take a look

inside the unit regularly, e.g. once a month.

• Dust or other impurities in the air may accumulate

in the equipment. Dirt blocks the filters and adheres to the heat exchanger and weakens the efficiency of ventilation.

• Use special modes, such as Fireplace mode, only

when necessary.

• The unnecessary use of special modes increases

energy consumption.

• Instead of or in addition to adjusting the ventilation

system, you can improve living comfort by using traditional methods:

• Keep the curtains and windows closed on hot days

in order to keep out the heat of the sun. Dress more warmly on cold days. This will help you to save a lot of energy.

• Use only spare parts approved by Enervent.

• Use original filters only. They have been designed

to ensure the best possible performance of your ventilation system.

• Use Eco mode in order to save energy and reduce

costs, without compromising the quality of indoor air.

Use of the ventilation during the cold season

CAUTION

Reducing ventilation may cause serious damage to the structures of your house.

Do not reduce ventilation or switch it off when the outdoor temperature drops. Instead of decreasing, the costs may increase. Your ventilation system is the result of a professional system designer. Changes in the outside temperature have been taken into consideration in designing the system and the unit. If there are no changes in your daily routines, no adjustments are required in the ventilation system.

If you reduce airflow in cold weather, ice may form inside the ventilation unit. The risk is especially high in extremely cold weather and when the indoor air humidity is high (the shower is used frequently and large amounts of laundry are dried).

If the structure of the ventilation system needs to be updated, contact the designer of the system.

If the air coming from the ventilation system is too warm:

Go to a lower supply air target temperature by

1. pressing button . The temperature value on the panel will change and the ventilation system will be adjusted according to the set target temperature.

NOTE:

The system uses all of its devices in order to reach the required temperature. Missing devices, such as a cooling coil, may cause a higher temperature than the one you selected.

Using Eco mode maximises heat recovery in warmer weather as well. However, it may also cause the supply air to be too warm. In this case, switch off Eco mode.

The set-up display is designed for professional use only. It displays the current settings in the ventilation system and enables changing the settings.

CAUTION

Changing the settings is only allowed for an authorised person who has received sufficient training in using the ventilation system.

Supply air is too cold

If the air coming from the ventilation system is too cold:

Go to a higher supply air target temperature by pressing the button. The temperature value on the panel will change and the ventilation system will be adjusted according to the set target temperature.

NOTE:

The system uses all of its devices in order to reach the required temperature. Missing devices, such as an after-heating coil, may cause a lower temperature than the one you selected.

Insufficient maintenance: Cold supply air can be caused by, for example, a blocked filter or the heat recovery’s worn-out drive belt.

See also the following section: Heating mode, on page 8

Page 11

Ventilation is not sufficient

Indoor air is too humid

If the ventilation is not sufficient:

1. Check that the filters are clean and that they do not need to be replaced.

• If the filters are dirty, replace them according to the

instructions provided in the section "Filters" on page

12.

2. Check that no changes have occurred in the need for ventilation after the design and installation of the system.

• If changes have occurred in the number of people

living in your household or in your routines, the ventilation system may need to be updated. Contact the designer of your ventilation system.

Ventilation is noisy

Although our ventilation units are fairly quiet, they are never totally silent. If the ventilation system has been designed and installed correctly (no devices are placed close to the bedroom and soundproof doors and silencers are used), disturbance caused by ventilation can be reduced to a minimum.

If the ventilation is unusually noisy:

1. Check that the filters are clean and that they do not need to be replaced.

2. If the filters are dirty, replace them according to the instructions provided in the section "Filters" on page

12.

3. Check that the fans are clean and that they do not require cleaning.

4. If the fans are dirty, clean them as instructed in the maintenance instructions.

5. Check that the automated humidity boosting for removing moisture is not on.

6. Open the Information display and browse to the parameter n1. If the parameter is visible, the humidity boosting is on.

In addition to feeling the humidity, you may also identify a too high moisture content by listening to the sound caused by the ventilation. If the automatic humidity boosting is always on, the humidity may be too high and thus the ventilation system is trying to return the humidity to the correct level.

If the indoor air is too humid:

1. Check that the filters are clean and that they do not need to be replaced.

• If the filters are dirty, replace them according to the

instructions provided in the section "Filters" on page

12.

2. Check that no changes have occurred in the need for ventilation after the design and installation of the system.

NOTE:

If changes have occurred in the number of people living in your household and/or using the shower or sauna, the ventilation system may need to be updated. Contact the designer of your ventilation system.

Ventilation does not work

If the ventilation does not work:

1. Check that the unit is connected to the electricity

supply.

2. Check that the fuse has not tripped in the electricity

distribution board.

If all these matters are ok and the ventilation still does not work, contact maintenance.

NOTE:

If the automatic humidity boosting is always on, the humidity may be too high. Contact the designer of your ventilation system.

11Ventilation unit operation and maintenance instructions

Page 12

MAINTENANCE

The unit requires very little maintenance. The required maintenance usually includes the following tasks:

• replacing the filters

• cleaning the heat exchanger (in connection with

cleaning the ventilation ducts)

• cleaning the fans (in connection with cleaning the

ventilation ducts)

• checking the condensation water discharge pipe.

DANGER

Before commencing with maintenance, switch the power supply off by removing the plug from the socket outlet. Wait for two (2) minutes before you commence the maintenance. Although the power supply of the unit has been switched off, the fans continue running and the electric heater will be hot for a while.

The equipment includes moving parts (e.g., fans and the motor and belt of the rotating heat exchanger) which wear out in use. Due to normal wear these parts must be replaced during the life span of the equipment. The normal service life of the wearing parts is determined by the operational conditions and time of use and thus no normal maintenance interval can be specified for the wearing parts.

Filters
