5.0 Installation Requirements
5.3
General
1. The MVHR unit has five normal fan speed
settings and one boost setting. The
performance curve chart (Section 3, Fig. 8)
gives the ventilation rates at each fan speed
setting compared to the pressure drop of the
system.
2. The transmission of noise along ducts should
be reduced by fitting noise attenuation ducts
Part No. FS100.
5. 4
Ducting
1. The outside exhaust duct and outside air
intake duct should be sited a minimum of 1
metre apart to minimise the risk of contaminated
air being drawn into the house.
2. The duct work system should be sized and
installed to minimise the pressure loss along it.
3. Using larger diameter pipes and keeping the
number of bends and fittings used to a minimum
will reduce the pressure drop and allow the unit
to be set at a lower fan speed.
4. Ducting should be insulated in cold areas to
minimise heat losses. All duct joints should be
suitably taped to ensure an air tight seal.
