Note
This product earned the ENERGY STAR® by meeting strict energy efficiency guidelines set by Natural Resources Canada and the US EPA. This product meets ENERGY STAR
requirements only when used in Canada.
To ensure quiet operation of the ENERGY STAR certified H/ERV, each product model must be installed using sound attenuation techniques appropriate for the installation.
The way your heat/energy-recovery ventilator is installed can make a significant difference to the electrical energy you use. To minimize the electricity use of the heat/energy
recovery ventilator, a stand-alone fully ducted installation is recommended. If you choose a simplified installation that operates your forced air system for room-to-room
ventilation, an electrically efficient system that has an electronically commutated (EC) variable speed blower motor will minimize your electrical energy consumption and operating
cost.
Installation of a user-accessible control with your product model will improve comfort and may significantly reduce the product model's energy use.
PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For residential use only
Before installation careful consideration must be given to how this system will operate if connected to any other piece of mechanical
equipment, i.e., a forced air furnace or air handler operating at a higher static pressure. After installation, the compatibility of the two pieces
of equipment must be confirmed by measuring the airflow of the Fresh Air Appliance (FAA) using the balancing procedure found in this manual.
It is always important to assess how the operation of any FAA may interact with vented combustion equipment (i.e., Gas Furnaces, Oil
Furnaces, Wood Stoves, etc.)
Products are designed and manufactured to provide reliable performance, but they are not guaranteed to be 100% free of defects.
Even reliable products will experience occasional failures, and this possibility should be recognized by the user. If these products are
used in a life support ventilation system where failure could result in loss or injury, the user should provide adequate back-up ventilation,
supplementary natural ventilation or failure alarm system, or acknowledge willingness to accept the risk of such loss or injury.
Your ventilation system should be installed in accordance with the local building code that is in effect, in absence of such requirements, it
is recommenced to check with local authorities having jurisdiction in your area prior to installing this product.
