    Touchscreen Controller exists as your gateway to customize the CERV to fit your needs best. The wireless controller allows you to set your heating and cooling setpoints, VOC and CO2 ventilation setpoints, as well as configure the CERV for use with its auxiliary add-ons, such as the back-up electric duct heater and the wireless ventilation switches. The touchscreen interface was designed from the ground up to be simple and intuitive, retaining a high degree of usability without having to worry about getting lost in a series of menus.

     Assess – The CERV is recirculating air throughout the house in order to obtain accurate readings of the home’s overall health and comfort. When the CERV does not need to ventilate or heat or cool, it may simply sit in its off mode, where approximately every 10 minutes it will do an assessment for 2 minutes.

    VERVIEW In most cases, you will want to let the CERV use its own internal algorithms to determine which mode is best, however there may be scenarios in which you may want to specify that the CERV may only operate in ventilation mode, or that the system should just remain off.
