TABLE OF CONTENTS

1.1 UNIT DESCRIPTION

1. YOUR UNIT AND ITS PURPOSE

Your ventilation system is designed to provide fresh air, warmed outdoor air to your home

while exhausting stale, humid air from your home. By eliminating accumulated pollutants

and humidity, it maintains an optimum air quality and an ideal relative humidity.

1.2 PURPOSE OF THE VENTILATION SYSTEM

VH0025

NOTES: 1. Shown with a forced air system. Can also operate on its own.

2. Installation may vary.

VL0017

1. Power supply cord

2. Filters

3. Recovery core

4. Condensation tray

5. Blower assembly

• Units equipped with a heat and humidity recovery core (enthalpic core) can reduce

ventilation costs in winter as well as in summer.

1. During the heating season, the unit draws the humidity and heat from the stale air and

transfers them, in part, to the cold air entering the house, thus avoiding dryness

problems and providing maximum comfort.

Example (in winter):

1.3 RECOVERY

• Units equipped with a heat recovery core (polypropylene core) are specifically

designed to control excess humidity and reduce ventilation costs by recovering the

heat energy from the exhausted air, and using that same heat energy to warm the fresh

air being supplied. This heat recovery process is accomplished in such a way that the

stale air is never mixed with the fresh air.

Example (in winter):

OUTSIDEINSIDE

STALE AIR TO OUTSIDE

4°C/40°F

FRESH AIR TO BUILDING

18°C/64°F

FRESH AIR FROM OUTSIDE

0°C/32°F

STALE AIR FROM BUILDING

22°C/72°F

VF0011

2. During the cooling season, the unit reverses the process, preventing the humidity from

the outside air from entering into the house.

Example (in summer with air conditioning):

OUTSIDEINSIDE

4°C/40°F

FRESH AIR FROM OUTSIDE

FRESH AIR TO

FRESH AIR FROM OUTSIDE

32°C/90°F

STALE AIR FROM BUILDING

25°C/77°F

When the outside temperature is below 0°C (32°F), recovery (of heat or energy) creates

frost in the core. To maintain its proper operation, the unit is programmed to defrost the

recovery core. The defrost frequency varies according to the outside temperature.

Defrosting lasts 6 minutes. During the defrost cycle, the unit shifts to maximum speed and

the dampers close.

After defrosting, the unit returns to the operating mode selected by the user.
