My aircycler g2 started to make a loud screeching sound so I disabled it. The technician said I needed a new switch and to get a electrician to do it. How do I get a new switch.
The wires (R, C, & W ) from the air handler to the thermostat can run parallel with the wiring from the AirCycler® g2 to the air handler. The fan wire (G) must be interrupted by the AirCycler® g2. Some thermostats do not require a common (C) connection.
EXHAUST FAN The AirCycler® g2, when used with the optional FanConnect™ switch, can be configured to rely on the exhaust fan for supplemental ventilation. If used in this configuration, the exhaust fan must be capable of a flow rate equal to or greater than the continuous whole building mechanical ventilation rate.
It is recommended that the damper be as close to the return air plenum and the AirCycler® g2 controller as possible, and the inlet duct connect to the return plenum upstream of the system filter, and down- stream of any duct mounted sensors.
The AirCycler® g2 controller can be installed near the thermostat or out of view on/near the air handler unit. Warning: Before installing the AirCycler®, turn off all power to the furnace. There may be more than one power to disconnect.
