Overview 1.1.1 The ComfoAir 155 CM is a ventilation system designed to provide improved indoor air quality in dwellings. As a whole house system, the unit continuously extracts air from the non-habitable rooms and supplies fresh, filtered air to habitable rooms. Heat that is recovered from the air drawn from the bathrooms and kitchen is passed through a heat exchanger and the heat that is recovered is transferred, to temper the supply air in habitable rooms to provide a comfortable indoor environment.
Installation Instructions General Preparation 2.1.1 The ComfoAir 155 CM unit is supplied with 4 x 125mm Ø spigots. • 125mm ducting with connectors can be used (see Ancillary Section page 3) to provide performance levels required for compliance with local Building Regulations.
Positioning 2.2.1 The ComfoAir 155 CM unit must be installed horizontally with the fixing brackets provided. 2.2.2 It is not advisable to install the unit directly above a bedroom or living room ceiling, or in an area that is part of a living area or bedroom.
2.4.1 The ComfoAir 155 CM unit is supplied with two adjustable ceiling fixing brackets. Each bracket is a long strip and has four fixing points located at equal intervals. It is recommended that six screws per bracket are used to secure the unit.
It is important that any condensate MUST be drained away. • The ComfoAir 155 CM unit is provided provided with a condensate drain located at the side of the unit (See Figures 6-8) and can be rotated for ease of connection.
Ducting must be connected to all four spigots according to right or left hand configuration (See Section 2.3 for Configuration). It is recommended that a minimum distance of 200mm is maintained between the ComfoAir 155 CM and any ducting bends. 2.7.3 To prevent condensation, ensure that the intake and exhaust ductwork from the unit is insulated.
2.7.8 The intake fresh air should be directly from the outside. • If drawn through a wall, an external grille should be fitted. • If drawn through a roof, a recognised roof terminal should be fitted. • Ensure that the free area opening of the grille/terminal is a minimum of 90% of the free area of the ducting being used.
