Optional Fresh Outside Air Duct - Omega VSHP SERIES Product Manual

2.3 Optional Fresh Outside Air Duct

Optional built-in Fresh Air Duct is suited for applications where the Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) unit is remote
mounted. The factory installed fresh air intake accepts fresh air connection from a remote mounted ERV. Refer to
Section 5.3 to see different configurations available for location of fresh outside air duct.
The introduction of cold conditioned outside air from a remote energy recovery ventilation device into the heat
pump cabinet can result in potential freezing and bursting of mechanical components carrying water in the heat
pump. Designer should take care to treat these considerations accordingly (e.g. utilize water glycol treatment or
ensure ERV tempers Outside Air sufficiently above freezing point before entering the unit).
