HRV DUCTING FOR FULLY DEDICATED SYSTEM
1. Stale air is drawn from areas requiring local exhaust (bathroom, kitchen, laundry room).
2. Fresh air is distributed to habitable rooms (bedrooms, living room)
3. The HRV’s airflow must be balanced after installation using the procedure found in the section “AIRFLOW
BALANCING.”
Suggested for:
Hydronic baseboard
In floor heating
Electric baseboard
Mini split heat pump
Benefits:
Provides the best fresh air distribution in the house; lowest operation cost since the furnace/air handler unit is not
needed.
Make sure the HRV is capable of meeting the required airflow rate.
