General Information 1 Notes on the documentation
General Information
The domestic ventilation unit consists of a central venti­lation appliance for air exchange with heat recovery and a remote control. For summer operation, you can obtain a bypass as accessory. It can directly provide living rooms with cool external air whenever it is necessary. The external air flow bypasses the heat exchanger. The unit is connected to an air ducting system, which is equipped with silencers, pre-filters, fresh-air and ex­haust-air grilles and louvres. Fresh air grilles supply fresh air to the living areas and stale moist air is extracted from the kitchen, bathroom and WC. With the digital remote control the user is able to auto­matically switch and adapt the domestic ventilation unit power to their own requirements. The unit ensures: – A constant air exchange in the building – The hygienic minimum air exchange in accordance
with UK building regulations Part F
– Energy savings thanks to high efficiency heat recov-
ery
– A high hygiene standard due to the prevention of hu-
midity and mould damages of the building The exact model description of the unit is to be found on the identification plate positioned below the unit.

4.2 Bypass (optional)
The device can be equipped with a bypass, which is fit­ted on the top of the device, see fig. 4.2. With a bypass installed the user may operate the so­called "free cooling mode" during the summer months with the outside temperature falling below room tem­perature during the night. The cooler outside tempera­ture will not be warmed by the device before it was blown into the room. To protect the bypass valve from dirt, we recommend an outside air filter of the filter class at least G3. The filter is installed on site into the outside air duct, possibly close to the air inlet.
