As an option, the ventilation system can also be equipped with a geothermal heat exchanger.

can modify the automatic control of the geother- mal heat exchanger to a slight extent in menu P61 at the CC Ease operating unit, if necessary.

The geothermal heat exchanger and the corresponding temperature sensor must be connected to the PCB panel (extend- ed version) of the MTD-ERV 350 by the installer.

The geothermal heat exchanger is an addition- al underground air duct at a depth of at least 1 metre and with a length of 20 to 40 metres that forms part of the ventilation system. The geo- thermal heat exchanger allows the outside air to be admitted to the house under ground instead of above ground. The heat of the soil is thereby given off to the outside air as it flows through the geothermal heat exchanger.

The geothermal heat exchanger is thus an out- standing solution both in winter and in summer. In frosty weather, the outside air can be heated by the underground geothermal heat exchanger before it enters the house via the MTD-ERV 350. During hot weather in the summer, on the other hand, the outside air can be cooled by the un- derground geothermal heat exchanger before it enters the house via the MTD-ERV 350.

The geothermal heat exchanger functions au- tomatically. A temperature sensor installed any- where on the outside of the house measures the temperature of the outside air. As soon as

3.4.7 Chimney Sweep Control

Apart from the chimney sweep control set as standard in the software, an additional unit can be connected to the PCB panel (extended ver- sion) of the MTD-ERV 350 as an option that can switch off the fans of the MTD-ERV 350 via a float- ing contact.

By means of a pressure sensor installed in the room in which the hearth to be monitored is in- stalled, the unit measures the pressure in the room with the hearth. The pressure in the room in which the hearth is installed and the adjacent rooms must not exceed - 4 Pa so that fumes and smoke cannot enter the house. At a pressure higher than - 4 Pa, the fans of the MTD-ERV350 are switched off. Malfunction code "E4" appears on the display. In this case, please contact the installation company that installed the pressure sensor and/or the heating. There is probably a problem with the discharge of the fumes from the hearth.

The additional unit and the correspond- ing pressure sensor do not belong to the standard scope of supply of the MTD- ERV 350.

The additional unit and the correspond- ing pressure sensor must be connected to the PCB panel (extended version) of the MTD-ERV 350 by the installer.

the temperature of the outside air is between 0 and 15 oC in winter months and between 10 and 25oC in summer months, the geothermal heat exchanger is activated to allow the outside air to flow through the heat exchanger. The user can- not influence the automatic geothermal heat ex- changer control system. The installer simply has to indicate whether or not a geothermal heat ex- changer has been integrated into the ventilation system in menu P60 of the CC Ease operating unit during installation of the MTD-ERV 350 (for further information, see section 4.4).

The installer cannot influence the automatic chim- ney sweep control system. It reacts to settings at the PCB panel (extended version) stored in the software. The installer simply has to indicate whether or not a chimney sweep control system has been integrated into the ventilation system in menu P50 of the CC Ease operating unit during installation of the MTD-ERV 350 (for further infor- mation, see section 4.4).

ERV 350, ERV 365 specifications

The MTD ERV 365 and ERV 350 are advanced energy recovery ventilation (ERV) systems designed to enhance indoor air quality and energy efficiency in residential and commercial buildings. These units utilize cutting-edge technologies to transfer heat and moisture between incoming and outgoing air streams, optimizing the temperature and humidity levels of the conditioned air.

One of the main features of the MTD ERV 365 is its high energy recovery efficiency. Equipped with a specially designed heat exchanger, this ERV can reclaim a significant portion of the energy from the exhaust air, reducing the heating and cooling load on HVAC systems. This results in lower energy bills and decreased environmental impact. The ERV 350 offers similar benefits but is tailored for slightly smaller spaces, making it suitable for various residential applications.

Both models are constructed with durability in mind, featuring robust housing and weather-resistant materials that ensure long-lasting performance. The MTD ERV series is designed to withstand varying environmental conditions, ensuring reliable operation in challenging climates. Additionally, noise-reduction technology minimizes operational sounds, promoting a peaceful indoor environment.

User-friendly controls are another highlight of the MTD ERV systems. They come equipped with intuitive interfaces, allowing users to easily adjust settings, monitor performance, and receive maintenance notifications. Advanced sensors provide real-time data on indoor air quality parameters, ensuring optimal operation based on the specific needs of the environment.

Installation and maintenance are made straightforward with these ERV units. They feature a compact design that facilitates integration into existing HVAC systems or new constructions. Filters are easily accessible for routine cleaning or replacement, maintaining peak performance over time.

Furthermore, both the MTD ERV 365 and ERV 350 are designed with sustainability in mind. Using materials that are recyclable and energy-efficient components contributes to a reduced carbon footprint. These ERV systems also comply with various building codes and standards, ensuring they meet industry requirements for safety and efficiency.

In summary, the MTD ERV 365 and ERV 350 are sophisticated energy recovery ventilation solutions that combine advanced technologies and user-friendly features. With high energy recovery efficiency, durable construction, and easy integration, they stand out as models for improving indoor air quality and energy efficiency in a variety of settings.
