Consumer Information
A. To ensure quiet operation of the ENERGY STAR certified H/ERV, each product model must be installed using sound
attenuation techniques appropriate for the installation.
B. The way your heat/energy-recovery ventilator is installed can make a significant difference to the electrical energy
you use. To minimize the electricity use of the heat/energy-recovery ventilator, a stand-alone fully ducted installation is
recommended. If you choose a simplified installation that operates your furnace air handler for room-to-room ventilation,
an electrically efficient furnace that has an electronically commutated (EC) variable speed blower motor will minimize
your electrical energy consumption and operating cost.
C. Installation of a user-accessible control with your product model will improve comfort and may significantly reduce the
product model's energy use.

2. INSTALLATION

The wearing of safety glasses and gloves is recommended when installing, maintaining or cleaning the unit to

Make sure that no piece of mineral wool will enter in the unit during installation. Otherwise, this could reduce
airflow and generate vibrations and noise in the unit.

Choose an appropriate location for the unit:
• Within an area of the house where the ambient temperature is kept between 10°C (50°F) and 65°C (149°F);
• Away from living areas (dining room, living room, bedroom), if possible;
• So as to provide easy access to the interior cabinet for maintenance, and to the control panel on the side of the unit;
• Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible ducts to and from the unit;
• HRV units only: close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off;
• Away from hot chimneys, electrical panel and other fire hazards;
• Within 6 feet of a power source (standard outlet).
