HEAT EXCHANGER CELL
Check that the heat exchanger cell is clean every two years or in
conjunction with changing the filters.

2. Open the Vallox ventilation unit door by lifting the latch up.
3. Lift the door off.
4. Remove the filters (A, B, C).

7. If the cell is dirty, clean it by immersing it in warm water with a
mild detergent.
8. Rinse the cell clean with a water spray. Do not use a pressure
washer.
9. When the water has drained from between the laminae,
reassemble the ventilation unit in the reverse order.

Handle the cell carefully! Do not,
for example, lift the cell by its
laminae. The cell laminae are very
thin and easily damaged.
