side of the cabinet for electrical and control wires.

22. Install the two snap plugs in the cabinet holes on

the side of the HRV which electrical box was
originally removed from.

23. Route wires for both blower motors to opposite

side of HRV cabinet where electrical box is to be
installed.

24. Install the grounding continuity screw in both

the  upper  and  lower  blower  assemblies  on  the
opposite side  of  the  HRV  where  electrical box
is  now installed.

25. Fasten the electrical box to the cabinet of

the HRV using the 4 screws that were
previously removed.

26. Remove the snap plug from the blower divider

panel and install plastic snap bushing provided
in manual bag.

27. Install snap plug in hole in blower divider

panel where lower blower motor wires were

originally removed from.

28. Route the lower blower motor wires through the

hole in the divider panel into the electrical box.

29. Route upper motor wires into the electrical box.

30. Route damper motor wires into e-box and

connect the motor wires to the circuit board,
relays and capacitors using wiring diagram found
in manual for reverse installations.

31. Connect damper motor wires to circuit board

using wiring diagram found in manual for reverse
installations.

32. Route thermistor wire from electrical box,

through hole in the top core support panel,

and secure the blue end to the thermistor

bracket in front of the damper motor using a

plastic cable tie.

33. Connect the thermistor to the circuit board

in the electrical box.

34. Putty holes closed in blower divider panel and

top core support panel with wires protruding
through.

35. Install the large single door panel on the now

back of the cabinet where electrical box was
removed from and fasten using the eight
