ControlAir 15 Optional Remote Controls

Optional Main Controls

The amount of ventilation required in your home will fluctuate according to the activity level in the house. Higher activity levels require more ventilation.

Main controls can be mounted in a central location of the home (i.e. beside the furnace thermostat) which will provide the user with com- plete control over their ventilation system from a convenient location.

Ventilation Dehumidistat

PART NO. 99-250

Connects to BLACK, RED, GREEN and YELLOW terminals. Use a minumum of four lead 18 gauge low voltage wire.

*Only compatible with ControlAir 15 electronics.

Knockout for the Control Pad

The control pad from the HRV/ERV fits into this knockout giving full func- tionality and control of the HRV/ERV from a remote location.

ATTENTION

Only one main control can be installed on your system.

when the indoor humidity level

 

exceeds selected setting.

AIR SENTRY™ Air Quality Sensor

PART NO. 99-109

Connects to RED, GREEN and YELLOW terminals. Use a minimum of three lead 18 gauge low voltage wire. 100 ft (30 m) maximum wire length. Only compatible with ControlAir 15 electronics.

Status Light

The status light indicates the increased fan speed when the Air Quality Sensor reacts to odors and contaminants. A slow flashing light indicates low cont- amination (medium speed ventilation) while a fast flashing light indicates high contamina- tion (high speed ventilation). The Air Quality Sensor detects gases such as cigarette smoke and formaldehyde. The sensitivity level of the sensor is adjustable.

Optional Timers

Timers should be present when the HRV/ERV is exhausting from speciific locations i.e bathrooms, laundry rooms. The Digital Electronic Timer is the best selection, however, the crank timer will be necessary if only 2 lead low voltage wires are present.

Digital Electronic Timer (DET)

PART NO. 99-104

Connects to RED, GREEN and YELLOW terminals. Use a mini- mum of three 18 gauge low voltage wire. Connect up to 8 on 300 ft (91 m) wire max. Connect up to 5 on 300 ft (91 m) wire if Air Sentry is used. Mounts in a 2 x 4 box. Shown with a ‘decora’ cover plate (99-107W).

Crank Timer

PART NO. 99-101

Connects to RED and BLACK terminals. Use a two 18 gauge low voltage wire. Mounts in a 2 x 4 box. The crank timer provides a solution to installing a system where only 2 wires are present for the timers.
