3 What is the difference between an HRV and an ERV? The core in an HRV (Heat Recovery Ventilator) trans- fers heat from one air stream to the other. This is called sensible heat. The term ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilator) is usually used to describe a unit with an enthalpic core that transfers moisture as well as heat from one air stream to the othe[...]

20 Some models have a built-in dehumidistat (an optional remote wall mount dehumidistat can be installed, see Optional Remote Controls), to control harmful, excess humidity during the heating season . The dehumidis- tat operates in % of RH (relative humidity) with 80 being high and 20 being low. The average person is comfortable between 30-50%. The[...]

21 95 MAX Port Specifications The 95 Max Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) has been designed to allow the installer to choose between two possible positions on the cabinet for the INDOOR EXHAUST (return from building) port. Illustrations in this manual show standard (side mounted) port loca- tion. The same specifications apply to both 95 Max setups, r[...]

22 Location The HRV/ERV must be located in a heated space where it will be possible to conveniently service the unit. Typically the HRV/ERV would be located in the mechanical room or an area close to the outside wall where the weatherhoods will be mounted. If a base- ment area is not convenient or does not exist, a utility or laundry room may be us[...]

23 A well designed and installed ducting system will allow theHRV/ERV to operate at its maximum efficiency. Always try to keep duct runs as short and straight as possible.See Installation Diagrams for various instal- lation options. Outside Weatherhoods The fixed covered hoods have a built-in bird screen with a 1/4" (6 mm) mesh to prevent fore[...]

24 In homes without a forced air furnace, fresh air should be supplied to all bedrooms and living areas, exclud- ing bathrooms, kitchen and utility areas. It should be supplied from high wall or ceiling locations. Grilles that diffuse the air comfortably such as the Techgrille™ are recommended. If the floor is the only option available, then spec[...]

It is necessary to have balanced air flows in an HRV/ERV. The vol- ume of air brought in from the outside must equal the volume of air exhausted by the unit. If the air flows are not properly balanced, then; • The HRV/ERV may not operate at its maximum efficiency • A negative or positive air pressure may occur in the house • The unit may not [...]

30 Push and turn with slotted screwdriver. Damper automatically locks when pressure is released. When connecting ductwork to the collar, take note where screws are located. Screws should be located no further than 1/2” from outside edge of collar, so as not to impede operation of the damper. 1/2” Hard/Rigid ducting Insulated flexible ducting In[...]

31 1. Inspect Exterior Hoods at least once a month. Make sure exhaust and fresh air supply hoods are not blocked or restricted by leaves, grass, or snow. In win- ter, it is especially important to make sure snow is not blocking the hoods or that frost has not built up on the wire mesh (bird screen). WARNING: Blockage of hoods may cause an imbalance[...]
