Planning the Installation
Failure to comply with these requirements will result in voided warranty, improper installation, and
service callbacks.
The Fresh Air Ventilation System is designed to
supply fresh air and exhaust stale air. The system
draws fresh outdoor air through the ventilator for
distribution throughout the house.
Heat Recovery Ventilator
Stale air is exhausted through the ventilator and to
the outdoors. Heat is transferred from one airstream
to the other as the air passes through the opposite

Energy Recovery Ventilator

the outdoors. Heat and moisture is transferred from
one airstream to the other as the air passes through
the opposite sides of the energy transfer core.

Sizing
ASHRAE 62.2
There are several methods that can provide
satisfactory results for sizing a ventilator to provide
adequate ventilation for a home. There is a new
residential ventilation standard, ASHRAE 62.2, that
suggests the following:
7.5 CFM per person (count people as 1 per •
bedroom plus 1) plus 1 CFM per 100 sq. ft.
Example:
2200 sq. ft. house with 4 bedrooms
= (7.5 CFM x (4 bedrooms + 1)) + (1 CFM x (2200 sq. ft. / 100))
= (7.5 x 5) + (2200 / 100)
= 37.5 + 22
= 59.5 CFM
In this case 60 CFM continuous would provide
satisfactory ventilation for this home.
ASHRAE 62.1
Some regions still use the previous standard, ASHRAE
62.1, as the code for ventilation in their region.
The ASHRAE Standard 62.1 Ventilation for Acceptable
Indoor Air Quality suggests the following:
Option 1: Fresh Air Ventilation System provides
continuous fresh air supply of 93 cfm, and intermittent
capacity for bathrooms of 150 cfm. A separate 100
cfm exhaust fan is used for the range hood.
Supply air flow required = 93 cfm
Exhaust air flow required = 150 cfm
Any Honeywell ventilation unit provides suitable
ventilation capacity. See Fig. 22.
Option 2: Fresh Air Ventilation System provides
continuous 93 cfm fresh air supply, 150 cfm
intermittent exhaust capacity for bathrooms and
continuous 50 cfm kitchen ventilation.
Supply air flow required = 93 cfm
Exhaust air flow required = 200 cfm
Honeywell HR200/ER200 have the exhaust capacity
required to meet the ventilation needs of this
application. See Fig. 22.

.35 air changes per hour (ach) but not less than 15 •
cfm per person for living areas = house size (sq ft)
x ceiling height (ft) / 60 (min) x.35 (ach)
Example:
= 2000 sq ft x 8 ft / 60 min x .35 ach = 93 cfm
50 cfm intermittent or 20 cfm continuous capacity •
for bathrooms
Example:
50 cfm intermittent x 3 bathrooms = 150 cfm
20 cfm continuous x 3 bathrooms = 60 cfm
100 cfm intermittent or 25 cfm continuous capacity •
for kitchens
Example:
100 cfm intermittent x 1 kitchen = 100 cfm
25 cfm continuous x 1 kitchen = 25 cfm

Mounting Position and Location
The HR150/ER150 and HR200/ER200 can be
suspended from exposed ceiling joists, ceiling surface
or floor mounted. (Level ventilator so drains function
correctly.)
NOTE: ER150C and ER200C are specifically designed
for installations in unconditioned spaces such as
attics and garages in regions where the outdoor
temperature does not drop below freezing. (These
units are not equipped with drain kits.)
Locate fresh air intake 6 ft (2m) or more from stale •
air exhaust to prevent exhaust air from re-entering.
Locate ventilator where length of ducting required •
is minimal.
Install HR150/ER150 and HR200/ER200 in a
conditioned space using these guidelines:
Pipe drain line (ER150C and ER200C do not have •
drain kits) from the ventilator to a drain.
Use an existing electrical outlet with appropriate •
current rating (or install one) close to ventilator
power cord.
Allow space for drain line by placing the ventilator •
at least 10 in. (254 mm) off the floor.
For access and removal of ventilator core, allow at •
least 25 in. (635 mm) of open space in front of unit.
Ducting
Ducting between the ventilator and the outdoors must
be insulated and have a continuous air vapor barrier.
See Fig. 4.
IMPORTANT
All ducting to the outdoors must be terminated above
anticipated snow lines and be fitted with a weather cap
that incorporates bird screening.

of fresh air to temperature-controlled space and exhaust equivalent quantities of room air to the outside.
Keep intake and exhaust duct runs as short as possible with few bends or elbows.
Keep duct sizes as large as possible throughout the installation.•
Use a 6 in. diameter round duct for all connections to and from the ventilator.•
Separate outside intake and exhaust vents by at least 6 ft (2m).•
NOTES: Do not locate the fresh air vent where it blows directly onto occupants or the thermostat.
Do not locate the fresh air intake close to known sources of pollutants such as automobile exhaust, a
dryer vent or chimney smoke.
Ducting the supply outlet and/or the exhaust inlet of the ventilator to the return air plenum of the air handler •
is an excellent way to distribute fresh air and exhaust stale air from all parts of the house, while reducing
installation costs. When choosing this method, balance the ventilator when the air handler is running and
interlock the ventilator so that it can run only when the air handler runs. See Fig. 6. An alternate method is to
balance the ventilator when the air handler is not running and let the ventilator run whether the air handler is
running or not, see Fig. 5. An independent installation is shown in Fig. 7.
NOTE: When the home is occupied, continuous operation of the ventilator is recommended. When the furnace air handler
operates, fresh air is distributed through the heating/air conditioning supply registers. When the air handler is off,
fresh air is delivered through both supplies and returns.
STARTED
GETTING
An electrical interlock or an automatically powered damper must be used to prevent unwanted entry of •
outside air if the ventilator is turned off while the furnace air handler continues to operate.
