Chapter 5
5.1 Installation general
The appliance installation procedure can be summarised as
follows:
1. Placing the appliance (§5.2)
2. Connecting the ducts (§5.3)
3. Connecting the condensate discharge (§5.4)
4. Electric connection:
Connecting the multiple switch and, if necessary, the mains
power and the OpenTherm connector (§5.5)
5.2 Placing the appliance
An appliance from the Renovent HR series can directly be
mounted to the wall using the suspension strips supplied for
that purpose. For a vibration-free result the appliance must be
mounted to a solid wall with a minimum mass of 200 kg/m
measures such as double panelling or extra studs are required.
(article code 217031). In addition, the following aspects must
be taken into account.
5.3 Connecting ducts
valve. The appliance itself controls the air quantities.
To prevent condensation on the outside of the outside air input
duct and the air output duct from the Renovent HR, these ducts
must externally be provided with a vapour barrier as far as the
appliance. If Brink synthetic (EPE) pipe is used here, additional
insulation is not necessary. Use Brink thermally insulated ho-
ses for deviating diameters. For optimum fan noise damping, it
is recommended to use Brink acoustic hoses with a length of 1
metre (Medium version) between the appliance and the ducts
from and to the dwelling.
1.5 metre (Large version). Pay attention to crosstalk and in-
stallation noise, also for incorporated ducts. Design the duct
with separate branches to the damper to prevent crosstalk. If
necessary, the input ducts must be insulated, for instance when
they are installed outside the insulated envelope. Preferably
use Brink incorporated ducts. These ducts have been develo-
ped with a view to a low duct resistance.

The Renovent HR must be installed in accordance with:
• Quality requirements ventilation systems dwellings,
• Quality requirements balanced ventilation in dwellings,
• The regulations for ventilation of dwellings and residential
buildings
• The safety regulations for low-voltage installations,
• The regulations for connection to interior sewers in dwel-
lings and residential buildings,
• Any additional regulations of the local utilities
• The installation instructions for the Renovent HR.
•
The appliance must be placed level.
•
The installation room must be such that a good conden-
sate discharge with air trap and pitch for condensate can

be made.
•
The installation room must be frost-free.
•
Make sure there is a free space of at least 70 cm at the
front of the appliance and a free headroom of 1.8 m
1.8 m.
A minimum duct resistance of 160 mm recommended for the
Renovent Medium. A diameter of 180 mm is recommended for
the Renovent Large.
The duct must always have an adequate diameter, that is a dia-
meter of Ø150 mm for air quantities up to 250 m
of Ø160 mm for air quantities up to 325 m
Ø180 mm for air quantities up to 400 m
The duct spigots of the Reno-
loose sealing rings ø160 mm.
The duct spigots of the Reno-
eccentric adapters of ø180 mm.
The centre of the connecting
duct can be shifted by rotating
these eccentric adapters.
