Roof Curb Assembly Instructions for Model HRV 1500 SFDE

Frame Assembly

Roof Curb Assembly

1.

Take one end piece (locking tabs) and one side piece

 

(slots). Stand both pieces vertically on the floor or roof.

 

 

See Figure 1.

 

2.

Raise slightly the corner of the end piece (locking tabs)

 

 

and mate with side piece (slots), ensuring that lower lock-

 

 

ing tab with leading edge is through slot opening. See

 

 

Figure 2.

 

3.

Push down on top edge of end piece. Ensure that all 3

 

 

of the locking tabs are feeding into each corresponding

 

 

slot. Once both pieces are flush, the process is com-

 

 

plete. See Figure 3.

 

4.

Drive one spike provided into wood nailer strips at each

 

 

corner. See Figure 3.

 

Frame Application and Location

This roof mounting frame provides necessary support when the unit is installed. The frame can be installed directly on deck having adequate structural strength or on roof sup- ports under deck.

Securing the Frame

To ensure proper mating with unit, it is critical that mount- ing frame be squared to the roof, as follows:

1.With frame situated level in desired location on roof trusses, tack weld one corner of frame.

2.Measure frame diagonally from one corner to the oppo- site corner. Repeat with the remaining two corners. These dimensions must be equal for the frame to be square.

3.It is extremely important to sight frame from all corners to ensure that the frame is not twisted across top side. Shim frame under any low sides.

4.After frame has been squared, straightened and shimmed, weld or attach frame securely to roof.

MAX. SLOPE TOLERANCE: 1/16" per linear foot in any direction.

Note specification of duct location on bottom of

HRV when positioning cross members (duct cavity).

HRV 1500 SFD, 1500 SFDE specifications

The American Aldes HRV 1500 SFD and 1500 SFDE are advanced heat recovery ventilators designed to enhance indoor air quality while optimizing energy efficiency in residential and commercial spaces. These models utilize cutting-edge technology to ensure a constant supply of fresh air while simultaneously removing stale air, providing a balanced and healthy indoor environment.

One of the standout features of the HRV 1500 series is its high-performance heat exchanger. This component efficiently transfers heat from the outgoing stale air to the incoming fresh air, significantly reducing the energy loss typically associated with ventilation systems. As a result, buildings can maintain comfortable temperatures with reduced heating and cooling costs. The HRV 1500 SFD model is particularly effective for spaces up to 1500 square feet, while the HRV 1500 SFDE variant serves similar square footage with additional functionality.

Both models are equipped with a dual-fan design that ensures optimal airflow and distribution throughout the building. The fans operate quietly, providing a peaceful indoor atmosphere, and are designed for easy maintenance. The HRV 1500 series includes advanced filters that capture airborne particles, enhancing overall air quality. This feature is especially beneficial for allergy sufferers or those sensitive to pollutants.

Another notable characteristic of the HRV 1500 series is its user-friendly control system. The models seamlessly integrate with smart home technologies, allowing users to monitor and adjust ventilation settings remotely. Additionally, they come with intuitive controls that provide real-time feedback on airflow and system performance.

Energy efficiency is a cornerstone of the HRV 1500 series, which is certified by various energy standards, ensuring compliance with modern building codes. The robust design and durable materials used in these units provide long-term reliability, making them a wise investment for homeowners and building managers alike.

In summary, the American Aldes HRV 1500 SFD and 1500 SFDE heat recovery ventilators offer advanced technology, efficient performance, and a commitment to enhancing indoor air quality. With their high-efficiency heat exchangers, dual-fan systems, advanced filtration, and smart control capabilities, these models stand out in the market for effective residential and commercial ventilation solutions.
