Detail
1. As soon as the unit is secured in desired location,
place the filter on.
2. First locate the rods (provided) to support the filter.
3. Then velcro the filter into position.
Installation Instructions
FIRST STAGE
Position a dustsheet beneath the site you have chosen for cutting the hole for the diffuser. Protect your lungs with a mask. Enter the loft space with the ECO2 Air or ECO2 Loftight unit and check there are no obstructions to your chosen position for the diffuser. Using the template supplied mark the hole for the diffuser and cut the 220mm holes in the plasterboard.
N.B For installations in 3 storey dwellings, the unit should be linked to the dwellings smoke alarm system and fitted with a steel fire diffuser, part number: KIT-PIV-SMOKE.
SECOND STAGE
Position the ECO2 Air or ECO2 Loftight unit on 50mm x 25mm wooden battens (not supplied) laid across the joists or raised platform if the insulate is thicker than the joists so that the trunking between the unit and the diffuser is not impeded. Lightly screw the drilled battens to the joist through the rubber mounts and metal penny washer provided. Fit the trunking to the unit spigot using half of the tape provided.
THIRD STAGE
Push ducting through the hole in the ceiling. Return to the hallway and connect the ducting onto the neck of the diffuser using rest of the tape provided. Ensure that the diffuser is aligned correctly with the walls of the hallway. Adjust if necessary. Fix the diffusers in position using plasterboard plugs and the screws provided.
FOURTH STAGE
Fit the filter as per the diagram below (ECO2 Air only).

Installation Instructions
FIFTH STAGE - Fitting the inline filter
Filter location - The filter should be located in the supply airflow between the external input point and
the unit. It is recommended that it is fitted directly to the ECO2 Air Unit spigot in a section of Ø150mm x
350mm (min) ridged duct. See Fig.4.
Filter orientation - The cone filter should always point towards ECO
2
Air unit.
Fixing and sealing - The filter should be fully sealed into the ducting, however it should not be
permanently bonded into position, this is to allow for removal of the filter during maintenance. Use a
flexible section as shown in Fig 1 & Fig 4 to aid removal, 300mm is recommended. Always apply the label provided to the filter location, this is to assist future filter maintenance (Fig 3).
Installation configurations - For sample configurations see (Fig 2).

Installation Instructions
Maintenance - For maximum efficiency of the unit, it is recommended that the filter is cleaned every
24 to 36 months by a competent person. Use a vacuum cleaner, a soft brush or warm water (air dry fully
before replacing).
