3.2LOCATING THE UNIT

Choose an appropriate location for the unit.

Within an area of the house where the ambient temperature is between 10°C (50°F) and 65°C (149°F) (basement, furnace room, closet, etc.).

So as to provide easy access to the interior of the unit, for maintenance.

Close to an exterior wall, so as to limit the length of the insulated flexible duct to and from the unit.

Away from hot chimneys and other fire hazards.

Allow for a power source (standard 3-prong grounding outlet).

For HRV units ONLY: Close to a drain. If no drain is close by, use a pail to collect run-off.
