ance.

2. Clean Air Filters Four Times a Year

The standard filters equipped with your ERV are

removable and washable.

a) simply open access door and slide core out

b) remove filter clips.

c) once clips are removed filters can be taken off the core to

be rinsed with water or a combination of soap and water.

d) to assemble, place clean dry filters back into their positions.

e) install core to its original position

3. Clean Core Twice a Year

a) open access door

b) carefully grip ends of core and pull evenly outward

Core may be snug, but will slide out of the channel

c) once removed from the cabinet remove filters

d) vacuum core to remove dust from core surface.

DO NOT WASH!!

re) install the clean, dry filters

r f) install clean core

NOTE: Core installation label on the outer end of the core.

To install the clean core:

a) first mount the bottom flange of the core guide into the

bottom H channel approximately 1/4" (6 mm)

b) mount the left or right side flange of the core guide

approximately 1/4" (6 mm) followed by the other side

c) mount the top flange of the core guide into the top H

channel approximately 1/4" (6 mm)

d) with all four corners in place and the core straight and

even, push hard in the center of the core until the

core stops on the back of the cabinet.

NOTE: Core will appear to stick out from cabinet approximately

1/8" (3 mm). This is designed this way so that the access door

will fit tight against the core.

4. Motors - MAINTENANCE FREE

5. Clean Duct Work if Required

The duct work running to and from the ERV may

accumulate dirt. Wipe and vacuum the duct once every

year. You may wish to contact a Heating/Ventilation

company to do this.

6. General Maintenance - Twice a Year

Wipe down the inside of the cabinet with a damp cloth to

remove dirt, bugs and debris that may be present.

7. Cleaning the Fans

Fans may accumulate dirt causing an imbalance and/or

excessive vibration of the ERV. A reduction in the air flow

may also occur. In new construction this may result within

the first year due to heavy dust and may occur periodically

after that over time depending on the outdoor conditions.

• unplug the ERV and open the service door

• remove the core

• remove ducting (metal and/or flexible insulated type)

from the red and/or blue ports which are connected

immediately inline with the fan assembly

• use a small brush, such as an old toothbrush or pipe

cleaner, and insert first

(a) through the large opening of the fan

assembly and then

(b) through the smaller opening in the end

of the fan assembly.

• scrub individual fan blades until clean. Avoid

moving or damaging balancing flat weight, clip is

usually found on one or more of the fan blades

• vacuum and wipe

• reassemble making sure ducting is reattached firmly

and insulation and moisture barrier are sealed

and taped

Before attempting this task, thought should be given

to having a qualified service technician complete the

service work.
