IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL
BEFORE INSTALLING UNIT
CAUTION -
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. After installation, the compatibility of the two pieces
of equipment must be confirmed by measuring the airflow's of the Energy Recovery Ventilators
by using the balancing procedure found in this manual.It is always important to assess how
the operation of any ERV may interact with vented combustion equipment (i.e. Gas Furnaces,
Oil Furnaces, Wood Stoves, etc.).
NEVER -
install a ventilator in a situation where its normal operation, lack of operation or
partial failure may result in the backdrafting or improper functioning of vented combustion
equipment!!!
Your ventilation system should be installed in conformance with the appropriate state requirements or in the
absence of such requirements ASHRAE's " Good Engineering Practices".

    INSTALLATION EXAMPLES It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure all ductwork is sized and installed as designed to ensure the system will perform as intended. All air movement devices have a performance curve. The amount of air (CFM) that an ERV will deliver is directly related to the total external static pressure (E.S.P.) of the system.
