Installation and Wiring Instructions for the Air+ PIV Unit. IMPORTANT: READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE COMMENCING THE INSTALLATION SAFETY AND GUIDANCE NOTES 1. DO NOT install this product in areas where the following may be present or occur: 1.1. Excessive oil or a grease laden atmosphere.
A. INTRODUCTORY NOTES The Airtech Air+ PIV is a positive input ventilation unit, designed to be installed in the loft of a dwelling to continually supply filtered fresh air into the building. The system consists of a fan unit, a heater unit and a diffuser with a short length of flexible ducting.
This will not only assist the operation of the Air+ PIV, but may also help to prevent future expensive structural damage caused by inadequate air movement. It should be noted that there can never be too much ventilation in a loft.

The diffuser should not be situated within 1m of a smoke detector, however if this is not possible the AIR+ PIV has provisions to blank off the airflow for up to two quadrants of the diffuser. Two blanking plates are provided; these should be pushed on to the support struts inside the diffuser as required.

Only a qualified electrician or installer should connect the power supply to this unit. The Air+ PIV is designed for operation from a single-phase alternating current source (220-240V AC). A 2m integral mains flying lead is connected to the unit for connection to a 3A switched fused spur.
Air filter The Airtech Air+ is provided with G4 filters which are suitable for removing airborne contaminants such as pollen and dust. Where improved filtration is required optional F7 filters can be used. These filters are effective at removing finer particles such as particulate emissions from diesel engines.

Commissioning Menu Structure For most installs the standard features allow for ample adjustability, however in some install situations the advanced features will improve the unit’s performance or acceptability. By reducing the trickle speed threshold the fan will run at Energy Recovery speed more often, this would be helpful in a property with persistent damp problems.
