In conditions between 19°C - 25°C the units will increase air flow rate by 10%. In hot conditions above 25°C the units will temporarily switch off to avoid bringing hot air into the property from the loft space. The PIV unit uses a single 200mm diffuser to provide air into a hallway or landing area.
Installation 1. Place a dust sheet below the required ceiling diffuser position and check the ceiling below and loft space above are unobstructed. 2. a) For PIV units mark a 222mm diffuser hole using the template. 2. b) For MIV units mark two 105mm diffuser holes (see page 9 for positioning information).

If there are very high amounts of particulate matter in the air and loft space, the filter will need to be replaced more frequently.
