TypicalInstallation

There are three (3) common installation methods.

5.1FULLY DUCTED SYSTEM

(Primarily for homes with radiant hot water or electric baseboard heating. See figure 1.)

Moist, stale air is exhausted from the high humidity areas in the home, such as bathrooms, kitchen and laundry room. Fresh air is supplied to bedrooms and principal living areas.

The use of bathroom fans and a range hood is suggested to better exhaust stale air.

Homes with more than one level require at least one exhaust register at the highest level.

5.2EXHAUST DUCTED SYSTEM (SOURCE POINT VENTILATION)

(For homes with forced air heating. See figure 2.)

Moist, stale air is exhausted from the high humidity areas in the home, such as bathrooms, kitchen and laundry room. Fresh air is supplied to the cold air return or the supply duct of the furnace.

The use of bathroom fans and a range hood is suggested to better exhaust stale air.

Homes with more than one level require at least

 

 

 

one exhaust register at the highest level.

 

 

 

NOTE: For this type of installation, it is not

 

 

 

essential that the furnace blower runs

 

 

 

when the unit is in operation, but we

5.3SIMPLIFIED (VOLUME VENTILATION)

(For homes with forced air heating. See figure 3 or 4.)

Fresh air and exhaust air flow through the furnace ducts wich simplifies the installation. The use of bathroom fans and a range hood is suggested to better exhaust stale air.

NOTE: For the installation type shown in figure 4, furnace blower should be running when the unit is in operation.
