Basement Installation manual
More tips for installation
INTRO
Optimal Inblow: If possible the air inlet should be installed in the driest room and
the outlet in the most humid room in the basement – otherwise you risk spreading
the humid air throughout the entire basement.
K vs. Standard: All measurements in this manual are applicable to the SolarVenti (K)
basement models only. The measurements CANNOT be used with our standard
SolarVenti air collectors (SV14, SV20, SV30).
TOOLS
The wall of the basement: Drilling through basement walls can be challenging and
the tools needed to make the hole will depend on the wall material. Contact your
local SolarVenti installer for further advice regarding the drilling and the installation.
The hole: Take care not to drill into cables etc.
The centre of the air inlet must be at least 100 mm below the basement ceiling.
The optimal diameter of the hole is Ø133 mm on the inside and Ø140 mm on the
outside. It is possible to use a Ø135 mm both inside and outside.
Screws: Screws for the mounting of the Solar Air Collector to the wall are not
included.

Cable: The cable of the Solar Air Collector may either go through the hole of the air
inlet – as shown above – or a separate 6-8 mm hole may be drilled in the position
18, 20
desired.

Insulation: Insulation of the pipe is needed. An insulation matt and aluminium cover
can be purchased from SolarVenti A/S.
Stands: Drill two holes in each rack and mount them to the wall with suitable
p. 8, 14
screws.
p. 10
Angle: Find the reference point
the grey area on the wall to indicate the position of the air inlet hole where the
drilling can be made. (Please note that an Extra Extension Kit will extend the
maximum length from 1010 mm to 2010 mm).
If you want to use the total length of the pipe G, you have to drill the hole on the
bottom line. If you drill a hole in the grey area, you will have to cut the pipe.
