Product Description
Ventergy® Series Ventilator Fans represent years of engineering
development to combine the energy efficiency and sound performance
of a forward-curved fan with the durability and pressure characteristics
of a backward-inclined impeller fan.
FSVS Filtering Supply Air Ventilators are highly versatile, continuous-
duty rated units for residential applications. They meet ENERGY STAR
efficiency criteria for low energy consumption. The FSVS is designed to
provide precise amounts of fresh outdoor air to the occupied space or
forced AHU duct system.
The FSVS is designed to filter and distribute incoming fresh air and prevent
the introduction of contaminants as a result of unwanted infiltration
through leaks in the building’s envelope. By slightly pressurizing
the structure, the FSVS also reduces the risk of backdrafting heating
appliances, water heaters, and fireplaces. The quiet, continuous-duty,
energy-efficient, external-rotor motor with permanently sealed bearings
provides many years of maintenance-free performance.
Construction
The FSVS is constructed of heavy-gauge galvanized steel to prevent
corrosion caused by moisture. The cabinet is internally lined with
acoustic, closed-cell foam insulation that acts as a vapor barrier. This
allows installation directly above living spaces or in unheated plenum
spaces without concern for noise or condensation.
Controls
The fan can be operated manually or automatically by a programmable
timer, dehumidistat, or other appropriate electronic switch device. The
fan may also be operated in conjunction with a variable speed control.
The fan may be interlocked with a forced air handling unit for optimal
air distribution. For continuous operation, the fan should be installed
separately from the forced AHU to prevent moisture in the air from
condensing inside cold ducts, or cold air coming in contact with the
heat exchanger. The fan may be ducted so that fresh air is introduced
into a living area via an overhead return.

Fan and Motor
The fan motor is an energy-efficient, permanent-split-capacitor type
with external-rotor design. Totally sealed to protect against moisture and
contaminants, it incorporates permanently lubricated sealed bearings
and automatic-reset thermal-overload protection. It is designed and
certified for continuous duty or intermittent operation.
The fan uses a backward-inclined impeller design that minimizes dust
collection on blades. Each fan is statically and dynamically balanced at
the factory to eliminate vibration and ensure quiet operation.
Locating and Installing
The compact dimensions and versatile mounting options permit
installation above drop ceilings, between ceiling joists, or within a small
soffit location. They can be installed horizontally or vertically.
Serviceability
The entire motor and fan assembly is mounted on a drop-down hinged-
access panel for simple service and inspection. It can be removed from
the fan housing without disassembling the duct connections. The filter/
supply air manifold section includes a separate drop-down access panel
for filter inspection or removal and airflow rate adjustments of each
supply duct airflow regulator without disconnecting the unit from the
duct. Tools are not required to access the filters.
Accessories
Accessory kits are available to facilitate installation and enhance operation.
Accessories kits are sold separately. Please visit aldes-na.com, or contact
your local Aldes distributor for details.
