Safety First
The Heat Recovery Ventilator is a "SELV" (Safety Extra Low Voltage) ventilator which operates at 12 volts AC. Under no
circumstances must this be connected directly to the mains supply. Damage so caused is not covered by the warranty.
The low voltage used by the ventilator must be provided by the isolating transformer. A typical layout of installation is
shown below.
The Heat Recovery Ventilator can be used in any room which has an outside wall open to fresh air. It is particularly
useful in the bathroom, kitchen or laundry room where high levels of moisture are generated. It can also be used in the
lounge, dining room or any bedroom to provide a fresh air supply to reduce dust-mite, eliminate mould growth or
dampness and condensation and to provide warmed fresh air.
