Condensation drain / water seal The VP 18 EK unit is delivered with a 20mm condensation drain. (PVC, GF-fittings). The unit in- cludes a water seal. The condensation drain should be carried with an even inclination of at least 1cm per metre, frost-proof to the nearest outlet.
In order to prevent icing-up, it may be necessary to supply the condense outlet inside the building envelope with a heating cable. It is the installation contractor’s responsibility to frost protect the condense outlet. The hot-water tank is enamelled inside and equipped with a magnesium sacrificial anode. All branches have a ¾”...
Ducting We recommend that there are used ducts and fittings with rubber packing that meet sealing class B and that the connections between the unit and the ducting are made with 1 metre sound absorb- ing flexible transitions as regards sound reduction. The ducts should be shortened with a hacksaw or an angle grinder and laid out according to the working drawing.

The ventilators can be set on a higher speed if necessary. Any draught controls to the outside should be closed at outside temperatures below 6°C. VP 18 EK is functioning but there is no hot water. Please check if the hot water tank is emptied. If the unit is supplied with hot-water circula- tion and the pipes are not insulated there can be a significant heat-loss which can cause a reduced output of the VP 18 EK.
The filter guard in the CTS 602 control can be used in order to make sure that the filters are checked. Please see user manual CTS 602 directions for further information. (delivered to- gether with the VP 18 EK). Figure 19: Filtershift Changing filters: 1.
