2.HRV Defrost Mode

When the fireplace is not in use, the HRV200PLUS provides continuous ventilation for the whole house. During this normal ventilation operation, the aluminum core of the HRV can develop frost when outdoor temperatures fall below 25°F. The Fresh Air Fireplace is used as a source of heat to defrost the HRV200PLUS during cold weather ventilation operation. During HRV Defrost Mode, the HRV will independently demand fireplace operation.

The HRV Defrost Mode sequence of operation is identical to Fireplace High Fire operation. This will include a pre-purge, ignition process, burn time and post-purge.
