1.0 Introduction
The unit must remain switched on at all times to maintain
ventilation within the dwelling. Turning the unit off will
cause long term damage to the unit and building fabric.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person for their
safety. Children should be supervised so that they do not
play with the appliance.
MRXBOX95B-WM1 wall mounted unit is designed to provide
mechanical supply and extract ventilation with heat recovery
& incorporates integral frost protection and summer bypass.
The unit is fitted with two independent fans. Each fan has full
speed control for background and boost ventilation rates.
To recover heat from the extract air the heat exchanger block
is utilised. The heat exchanger can recover up to 95% of the
normally wasted heat.
The bypass damper opens when a 230V signal is applied to
the unit (via a manual switch, supplied). This opens the damper
via an actuator. When the switch signal is de-activated
the unit returns to its original state (air through the heat
exchanger).
Outside air supplied through the bypass is still filtered, so the
air quality is optimal, irrespective of the bypass setting (Open
or closed).

2.0 Installation
Installation must be carried out by competent personnel in
accordance with the appropriate authority and conforming
to all statutory governing regulations. All mains wiring must
be in accordance with the current I.E.E. Regulations, or the
appropriate standards. Ensure that the mains supply
(Voltage, Frequency and Phase) complies with the rating label.
Please note a clear working space is required around the
installed unit to allow the cover to be removed and provide
sufficient access for maintenance such as filter change.
Please allow a minimum of 350mm in front of the unit.

The fan must be installed indoors, on a suitable wall away
from direct sources of frost, heat, water spray or moisture
generation. For a vibration-free result the unit must be
mounted to a solid wall.
The unit is designed for wall mounting only via a patress.
1. One part of the mounting bracket should be offered up to
the wall, ensuring it's located horizontally. Mark the fixing
points through the pre drilled holes in the bracket and
install with screws (by others), ensuring the interlock side
is at the top, fig. 2.
2. Fix the remaining part of the bracket to the unit using the
M5 screws ensuring the interlock side is at the bottom, fig.3a.
3. Install the unit on the wall by ensuring the bracket on the
unit interlocks over the wall mounted bracket (fig. 3b).
Note: Care must be taken to ensure the unit is installed true
in all 3 dimensions. Failure to do so may result in overflow
from the internal condensation drip tray.
