Airflow Adjustment & Balancing - Fantech VHR 70 Mode D'emploi

Airflow adjustment & balancing
Fantech's superior design and use of EBM Motors results in a steep fan curve that usually does not require balancing. Commissioning the system
after installation is recommended which include confirming the proper operation of the system and how it interacts with other components within the
home.

2 Before taking the reading, make sure that
the magnehelic gauge is level and at 0.
Refer to the flow measuring station's
chart to determine your unit's airflow
velocity.
• To avoid airflow turbulence and
incorrect readings, the airflow
velocity should be measured on
12"
steel ducting a minimum of 12"
(300 mm)
(300 mm) from the unit or elbow
and before any transition.
