This manual provides step-by-step instructions for installing and operating the Fantech SHR150 heat recovery ventilator. It includes airflow calculation methods, ducting configurations for fully dedicated, partially dedicated, and simplified installations, balancing procedures, wiring diagrams, and maintenance guidelines. The document also addresses compatibility with furnaces and safety considerations for vented combustion equipment.
The SHR150 is designed for residential applications and must be installed in accordance with local building codes or ASHRAE’s Good Engineering Practices. It includes components such as a hanging chain kit, hardware kit, and drain hose kit. The manual emphasizes balancing airflow after installation and provides guidance for integrating the unit with existing HVAC systems.
Master bedroom requires 10 L/s (20 CFM), bathrooms require 10 L/s (20 CFM) if providing local exhaust, and other rooms require 5 L/s (10 CFM).
Stale air is drawn from key areas, fresh air is supplied to the furnace return plenum, and airflow must be balanced using the procedure in the manual.
Install a motorized damper between the HRV’s supply air and the furnace’s return air duct that closes when the HRV is not operating.
