MANUAL BEFORE INSTALLING UNIT
CAUTION -
Before installation, careful consideration must be given to how this sys-
tem will operate if connected to any other piece of mechanical equipement, i.e. a forced air
furnace or air handler, operating at a higher static. After installation, the compatibility of the
two pieces of equipment must be confirmed by measuring the airflow's of the Air Exchange
Ventilator by using the balancing procedure found in this manual.
It is always important to assess how the operation of any AEV may interact with vented
combustion equipment (i.e. Gas Furnaces, Oil Furnaces,Wood Stoves, etc.).
NEVER -
install a ventilator in a situation where its normal operation, lack of operation
or partial failure may result in the backdrafting or improper functioning of vented combus-
tion equipment!!!
Your ventilation system should be installed in conformance with the appropriate provincial or state require-
ments or in the absence of such requirements with the current edition of the National Building Code, and /
or ASHRAE's " good Engineering Pratice".
