The Titon CME1 has been developed to meet these de- mands by extracting stale polluted air from the building whilst fresh air is provided by passive means.
Ventilation is Vital onstruction methods used in older homes resulted in uncontrolled ventila- tion via air leaking through the building structure, such as small gaps around windows and doors or between walls and fl oors. These leaks allowed a large amount of air to move through a home largely unnoticed by the occupants.
How the System Works he Titon CME1 works by continually extracting stale polluted air from rooms where most moisture is generated. Fresh air is provided passively from outside to habitable rooms, creating a fl ow of fresh, clean air throughout the home. The air travels from terminals built into the ceiling which are connected by hidden ducts to the unit.
How to Use the System he unit runs automatically and should not be switched off , except for mainte- nance. If a boost switch has been installed, it can be used to increase the extract ventilation rate at times when moisture or pollutant levels are considered exces- sive.
Installation Safety and Guidance • The electrical installation of the appliance MUST be carried out by a suitably quali- fi ed competent person and all wiring must be in accordance with current I.E.E. Regulations and all appropriate standards and applicable regulatory guidance. •...
Important: read these instructions fully before the installation of this appliance • NEVER install the CME1 in an area which does not have suffi cient access the for future maintenance (see Dimensions) , or ‘box-in’ the unit, as the area may subse- quently surface fi nished making access to the unit diffi cult.

Installation Fixing Unscrew the 2 retaining screws that hold on the COVER and remove, retain the screws. Fit two screws through the pre- formed holes at the front of the INLET RING. to securely fi x the INLET RING/SCROLL assembly to the BASE Fit one screw through the preformed hole in the back of the BASE.
Installation Ducting Best Practice • The use of fl exible ducting must be kept to a minimum and it should always be pulled taut. • If applicable, Fire Dampers must be fi tted to duct work at appropriate locations in accordance with Building Regulations.
Installation Ducting Connection • 204mm x 60mm ducting fi ts inside the ports. • To enable fi tment of 110x54mm ducting, modify the convertible port cover by tearing out the ‘rip strip’ . • When using the convertible port cover ensure the tear out section is completely removed.

Installation Ducting Connection • 110mm x 54mm ducting fi ts inside the convertible port cover • All joints must be adequately sealed, on all sides, using a suitable ducting tape and/or silicone type sealant. • Unused extract ports must be fi tted with non-converted or undamaged port covers.
Installation Wiring WARNING: The unit MUST be earthed. All wiring must conform to current I.E.E. Wiring Regulations and all applicable standards and Building Regulations. • The unit is suitable for 230V~50/60Hz Single phase supply fused at 3A. • For connection of the mains and boost trigger switch a terminal block is fi tted inside the unit, under the cover.

• Once the appliance has been fully installed it should be commissioned. • The Titon CME1 is Factory set at: GREY Continuous Speed 1 - 90V, BLACK Boost Speed 2 - 125V. Fan speeds may need adjusting in order to provide ventilation rates appropriate to the dwelling requirements.
Maintenance Cleaning The CME1 must be periodically cleaned internally. The maximum time between cleaning will depend on the local environment, however every 3 – 4 years is recom- mended. WARNING: The unit uses a 230V ~ supply and contains rotating mechanical parts.
