  • Page 8: How It Works

    Hybrid 200 4.0. How It Works 1. Fresh outdoor air enters the unit and flows through the ERV core. 2. Stale air and toxins from upper levels, basement, and crawl spaces enter the unit from the bottom ports. 3. In the summer, the ERV core transfers the excess humidity and temperature from the incoming air to the outgoing air.
  • Page 9: Installation Scenarios

    Hybrid 200 5.0. Installation Scenarios Fully Ducted System (For homes without any existing ductwork due to an existing forced-air system) This installation scenario will require a completely new duct system throughout the entire house. Stale, humid air is exhausted from the highest humidity areas of the house including the basement, bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry room.
  • Page 10 Hybrid 200 Pre-existing Ductwork (For homes with existing ductwork due to an existing forced-air system.) 5.2.1. New Exhaust & Recirculation This installation scenario will require new ductwork for the exhaust and recirculation systems, and a tie-in to the existing ductwork of a forced-air system for the fresh air supply. Stale, humid air is exhausted from the highest humidity areas of the house including the basement, bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry room.
  • Page 11 Hybrid 200 For this kind of installation, it is not obligatory that the forced-air system blower runs when the unit is in operation. The Hybrid 200 is powerful enough to circulate fresh air to all rooms of the house without blower assistance. Homes with more than one story require at least one exhaust vent at the highest level of the house.
  • Page 12 Hybrid 200 The air handler's existing duct system removes contaminated, humid air from high humidity areas such as the basement, bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry room. This air is drawn into the 200 Hybrid's ERV and HRV exchange units through the air handler's return plenum. Fresh air from outside is also passed through the ERV and HRV exchange units, exchanging humidity and temperature with the contaminated air before being expelled from the building.
  • Page 13: Pre-Installation

    Hybrid 200 6.0. Pre-Installation 6.1. Included Components Before installing your Hybrid 200 system, be sure that you have the right model and accessories. The following items should be included in the accessory box. If parts are missing, contact our customer service at US 1-888-533-1348, Can.
  • Page 14: Plan The Ductwork

    Hybrid 200 6.3.2. Plan the Ductwork Once the best location for hanging the Hybrid 200 was considered, it is time to begin developing a plan for your ductwork. You should take the following considerations when developing this plan: • Duct size - We recommend 8” flex duct connecting to and from the unit, tapered to 6” ductwork throughout the house for optimal flow and noise reduction.
  • Page 15: Installing Exterior Hoods & Vents

    Hybrid 200 Before beginning the installation, inspect the unit and the contents of the box for: • Damage - Inspect both the exterior and interior of the unit for any shipping damage to the door, latches, hinges, dampers, duct collars, filters, motor assembly, etc. •...
  • Page 16: Installing Interior Ductwork & Vents

    Hybrid 200 • Do not secure any ductwork to the unit itself until Section 7.4 - Connecting Ducts to the Unit. 7.2. Installing Interior Ductwork & Vents Warning Never install a stale air exhaust vent in a room where a combustion device operates, such as a gas or oil furnace, a gas water heater, or a fireplace.
  • Page 17 Hybrid 200 Steps: • Repeat connection steps outlined above in Exhaust System installation. Recirculation System The basement recirculation system will be the final series of vents and ductwork installed. If your basement contains multiple rooms, recirculation supply vents can be installed in the largest rooms, or in each separate room if so desired.
  • Page 18 Hybrid 200 In the case of a pre-existing forced-air heating or cooling system, the Hybrid 200 will use the existing ductwork and supply vents to supply fresh air to the bedrooms and living areas. Ensure all supply vents are at least 10 feet away from all exhaust vents. Since forced-air configurations vary between suppliers and builders, it is recommended that there be at least one supply vent on each main living level of the house, as well as in the basement.
  • Page 19: Mounting The Unit

    Hybrid 200 • Secure T-duct to return plenum with sheet metal screws. Seal appropriately. • Attach backdraft vent to one side of T-duct. • Attach flex duct from the supply vent of the 200 Hybrid to the other side of the T-duct. •...
  • Page 20 Hybrid 200 Flex Ducts: • Typically coming from interior supply, exhaust and recirculation lines. • Before connections are made to the unit itself, a T-duct must be attached to the main exhaust line, allowing the main exhaust line to be connected to both the exhaust and recirculation ports of the Hybrid 200.
