These instructions are in compliance with the latest version of the tested Ventoxx device of RV series. However, minor variations cannot be excluded so we cannot provide any guarantee that it agrees completely.
In these instructions you can find this sign identifying situations in which there is a risk of electrocution. We, Ventoxx Company, encourage such operations to be carried out by a specialized company.
2.4. Installation in Rooms with Open Fireplaces In case of use of RV 30 equipment produced by Ventoxx Company in rooms with open fireplaces or stoves, it is necessary to ensure installation complies with the applicable rules and standards in respective country. Apart from fireplaces with balanced flue air supply air may be needed for operation of all other operating units with an open flame.
2.5. Installation Instructions for ventilation units Ventoxx RV 30,Ventoxx RV 30s, Ventoxx RV 25 2.5.1. Tools Needed for Installation For Installation you will need the following listed tools and protective equipment. Tools: Level Utility knife Core drilling unit with 235 -240 mm drill bits for retrofitting ...
2.5.3. Placement of the Ventilation Unit Ventilation units of Ventoxx Company product line can be used almost in any room with exterior wall. Due to the pendulum fan principle, the devices must be operated in pairs. The respective mounting area should be here determined by a licensed professional planner.
The running direction will change every 68 seconds. Therefore, the factory sets Ventoxx RV units working in opposite direction in one delivery. For this purpose the units are marked with blue and red circles on the fan.
To minimize additional filthy and unnecessary work during installation, we recommend core drilling to create an opening for Ventoxx RV unit. It will also make the further steps easier. Ensure the drill bit can provide an opening of 230-240 mm. The opening should also have a slight slope to the outside (2 degrees).
Please, note that this service can only be provided by an authorized supplier representative (e.g., electrician) in Germany. Cabling Ventoxx RV ventilation units Low-voltage cables must lead from the control to the relevant associated fans. For this a wiring with a cable cross-section 3 x 0.75mm² is sufficient. As a power feed cable (connection between electrical power network and transformer) a wiring with a cable cross-section not less than 3 x 1.5mm²...
2.5.9. Fitting of the Telescopic Pipe: Steps 1–5 When assembling and installing the telescopic pipe, deformations must be avoided! The form of the ventilator with heat exchanger installation unit is accurately adapted to the pipe! It is necessary to leave the space between the wall and the pipe. The inner-side vapour barrier must be connected to the unit, if available.
Page 17
Step 3 If necessary, correct the insertion depth of the pipe segments in order to obtain the necessary pipe length depending on the wall thickness. Step 4 Insert the carriage bolts into the provided openings of the future front side of the pipe. The screw head must point to the room (the necessary screws are included).
2.5.10. Installing the Piping into the Wall: Steps 6–10 During installation of the piping system into the wall, note the following things: The pipe must be pre-assembled as described in2.5.9, completely and tightly The ventilator with heat exchanger installation unit is not used in the piping ...

Step 7 Turn the pipe into the correct position. Fix the pipe so that the sealing ring on the pipe top comes to rest. Insert the enclosed wedges to secure the position of the tube. Wedge the pipe on four sides. Step 8 Check there is sufficient slope of piping to the outside (about 2%), and the position of the screws on the front side is horizontal.
Step 10 Insert the unit control connection cable into the pipe. The cabling between the control and the unit is provided. The actual connection of the control is described hereinafter (see how to do this in chapter 3 of these instructions). 2.5.11.

Step 13 UV-resistant silicone can be used to close the top and side gaps between the outer cover and the wall. Please note: silicone joints are maintenance joints. After installation of the pipe and the outer cover, the ventilation system RV 30should be installed as follows: After installation of the pipe and the additional compensation box, as well as the attachment of the outer cover on the compensation box, the ventilation...
2.5.12. Installation of the Ventilator with Heat Exchanger Unit: Steps 14 and 15 Step 14 Insert the ventilator with heat exchanger installation unit into the pipe. (The fan should point in the direction of the interior). The unit is set horizontally and then pushed with light pressure into the pipe.
Step 16 Insert the inner cover. Turn the inner cover clockwise to close. To open, turn it anti-clockwise. Close the inner cover when Ventoxx ventilation unit is off (for example, in strong winds, to avoid noise and drafts). 3. Connecting Twist Control 3.1.
Control: Input Voltage 12V DC Front Panel Transformer (for connection of up to 4 units) Flush-Mounted Box 3.2. Connection and Installation of the Control 3.2.1. Red Fan-Blue Fan The centre of the front of each our reversible fans is marked with a blue or red circle. As our system works in pendulum fan method, ensure that each system has the same number of blue and red fans.
3.2.2. Connection Scheme Since Ventoxx ventilation units and Ventoxx Twist Control will be built-in, you should ask the representatives of the manufacturer or a specialist for an advice about the choice of installation locations.
Page 26
Please also consider the following connection options. Below, possible variations are shown schematically: A standard transformer with 25W output is suitable for connection of up to 4 ventilation units. In case of connecting more than four ventilation units, more network capacity is required (5W per unit).
3.2.3. Installation of the Control: Steps 1–7 Step 1 For installation of the control into the wall, two core holes of 65mm diameter (and breaking the in-between gap) and 70 mm depth are required. The required size of the space for the installation box is approx.
The electrical installation and initial commissioning should be carried out by qualified personnel. 3.3.2. Operating Ventoxx Twist Control provides simple and intuitive control for Ventoxx RV,your new ventilation system. It allows calling all functions with just a central knob (Master Switch).
3.3.3. Explanation for Indication The optical display is located around the knob and is only visible when switched on. In the pictures, the visual illumination in each specific case is shown. Green LEDs above (On/Speed): The top row of LEDs in green shows the speed at which the ventilation units are currently working.
3.3.4. Enabling/Disabling the Illumination for Operation Modes If necessary, you can turn off LED illumination. In order to do that press and hold the knob for about 3 seconds. The ventilation system is now working in the operating mode selected previously.
Page 31
By pressing the knob again, the blue LED begins to flash, which means that the ventilation units work in the "Ventilation" operating mode but have changed the direction of air flow, for example, when in room 1 the ventilation unit has been working to supply air and in room 2 –...
We recommend you to avoid cleaning the unit in the dishwasher not to damage the insulation! 4.1.4. Control The control itself does not require any special cleaning. Should there be any cleaning of Ventoxx RV unit or its filter change, yet the fans must be turned off via the control (see operating modes).
4.2. Troubleshooting If there is any unexpected malfunction of your Ventoxx RV device, try the following to fix the simplest problems: Problem Possible Solution: Please, check… the fan speed set, and, if necessary, set a higher fan Low airflow speed (see 3.3.5.2)
