when the unit is in operation.

3.2 SYSTEM COMBINED WITH AFURNACE

VH0087

See 4.5.2 for details

4. INSTALLATION

4.1 INSPECT THE CONTENT OF THE BOX

• Inspect the exterior of the unit for shipping damage. Ensure that there is no damage to the door, door latches, door hinges, dampers,

duct collars, cabinet, etc.

• Inspect the interior of the unit for damage. Ensure that the fan motor assembly, heat recovery core, insulation, dampers, damper actuator

and condensation tray are all intact.

• If the unit was damaged during shipping, contact your local distributor. (Claim must be made within 24 hours after delivery.)

When applicable local regulations comprise more restrictive installation and/or certification requirements, the

aforementioned requirements prevail on those of this document and the installer agrees to conform to these at

his own expenses.

When performing installation, servicing or cleaning the unit, it is recommended to wear safety glasses and gloves.

4.2 LOCATING AND MOUNTING 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 40°C (104°F)

• Away from living areas (dining room, living room, bedroom), if possible

• So as to provide easy access to the interior cabinet for every three months and annual 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 duct to and from the unit

• 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

• Allow for a power source (standard outlet)

Hang the unit with the 4 chains and springs provided (see illustrations at right).

VD0037

VD0279

4.3 PLANNING OF THE DUCTWORK

a) Follow the instructions in Section 4.4 (next page) to determine the appropriate duct diameters for your system.

b) Keep it simple. Plan for a minimum number of bends and joints. Keep the length of insulated duct to a minimum.

c) Do not use wall cavities as ducts. Do not use branch lines smaller than 4” Ø (102 mm Ø).

d) Do not ventilate crawl spaces or cold rooms. Do not attempt to recover the exhaust air from a dryer or a range hood. This would cause

clogging of the recovery module. Use rigid ducts for fresh air distribution and stale air exhaust (“warm” side of HRV) and sheet metal

for the kitchen exhaust duct (if need be).

e) Be sure to plan for at least one exhaust register on the highest lived-in level of the house if it has 2 floors or more.

NOTE: Prior to install the unit, remove its shipping bracket by unscrewing its wing nut and loosing

its both retaining screws.

WARNING

Use the table below to ensure that the ducts you intend to install will be carrying air flows at or under the recommended values.

Avoid installing ducts that will have to carry air flows near the maximum values and never install a duct if its air flow exceeds

the maximum value.

4. INSTALLATION (CONT’D)

4.4 CALCULATING THE DUCT SIZE

VI0003

PROBLEM:My installation requires two exhaust registers (both for the bathrooms). I will connect these

registers to a main duct which will connect to the unit (high speed performance value of 110 cfm).

What size of duct should I use for the main exhaust duct and for the two end branches leading to the

registers? (See illustration at right.)

SOLUTION:Main duct: Table above indicates a 6” Ø duct: maximum air flow: 110 cfm. The high speed

air flow of 110 cfm equals the maximum value (110).Therefore a 6” Ø duct or larger is an appropriate

choice for the main exhaust duct.

End branches: Each end branch will have to transport an air flow of 55 cfm (110 divided by 2). Table

above indicates a 5” Ø duct: maximum air flow: 65 cfm. The high speed air flow of 55 cfm is far

enough away from the maximum value (65). Therefore a 5” Ø duct or larger is an appropriate choice

for both end branches.

NOTE: A 4” Ø duct would have been too small because the maximum acceptable value for a 4” Ø

duct is 40 cfm.

4. INSTALLATION (CONT’D)

4.5 INSTALLING THE DUCTWORK AND THE REGISTERS

STALE AIR EXHAUST DUCTWORK:

• Install registers in areas where contaminants are produced: Bathrooms, laundry room, etc.

• Install registers 6 to 12 inches (152 to 305 mm) from the ceiling on an interior wall OR install them in the ceiling (the duct leading

to the register must never go through the attic).

• If a register is installed in the kitchen, it must have a washable filter and be located at least 4 feet (1.2 m) from the range.

• If possible, measure the velocity of the air flowing through the registers. If the velocity is higher than 400 ft/min. (122 m/min), then

the register type is too small. Replace with a larger one.

FRESH AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTWORK:

• Install registers in every bedrooms, in living room and a minimum of one per level without bedroom nor living room.

• Install registers high on the walls with air flow directed towards the ceiling.The horizontal draft must be perceptible at 3 ft. (910 mm)

from register (The cooler air will then cross the upper part of the room and mix with room air before descending to occupant level.)

Never install a stale air exhaust register in a room where there is a combustion device, such as a gas furnace, a

gas water heater or a fireplace.

The ductwork is intended to be installed in compliance with all local and national codes that are applicable.
