Why does my Lifebreath Air Cleaner have poor airflow?
- C
  Cynthia KellyAug 15, 2025
  Poor airflow in your Lifebreath Air Cleaner can stem from several causes. The 1/4 inch mesh on the outside hood could be plugged, so cleaning the exterior hoods or vents is recommended. Also, check if the filters are plugged and remove and clean them if necessary. The core could be obstructed, requiring removal and cleaning. Ensure house grilles are open and not blocked, and that any installed dampers are open and adjusted correctly. A poor power supply may be the issue, necessitating an electrician to check the supply voltage. Restricted ductwork or an improper speed control setting could also be to blame; check the duct installation and increase the HRV speed accordingly. Finally, the HRV airflow might be improperly balanced, requiring a contractor to balance it.

What to do if humidity levels are too high with Lifebreath Air Cleaner?
- A
  Anthony DiazAug 18, 2025
  If you're experiencing high humidity levels and condensation with your Lifebreath Air Cleaner, there are several things to consider. First, check the dehumidistat setting and lower it if it's set too high. If you have a hot tub or indoor pool, ensure they are covered when not in use. Lifestyle factors can also contribute, so avoid hanging clothes to dry indoors, storing wood inside, and ensure your clothes dryer is properly vented. Make sure ducts from the washroom are adequately sized to remove moist air, and consider using a bathroom fan for short periods to remove additional moisture. If condensation occurs mainly in spring and fall, try increasing the speed of your HRV.

Why does supply air feel cold from my Lifebreath Air Cleaner?
- G
  Gerald AllenAug 22, 2025
  If the supply air from your Lifebreath Air Cleaner feels cold, it could be due to the location of the supply grilles; relocate them higher on the walls or under the baseboards, or install ceiling mounted diffusers to avoid direct airflow on occupants. If the outdoor temperature is extremely cold, try turning down the HRV supply speed. A small duct heater (1 kW) could be used to temper the supply air. Ensure furniture placement or closed doors aren't restricting air movement, and if the supply air is ducted into the furnace return, the furnace fan may need to run continuously to distribute ventilation air comfortably.

What to do if my Lifebreath 700 POOL dehumidistat is not operating?
- M
  Mrs. Tanya Fisher PhDAug 28, 2025
  If the dehumidistat on your Lifebreath Air Cleaner isn't operating, it could be due to several reasons. If the outdoor temperature is above 15°C (59°F), the dehumidistat is functioning normally. Check for improper low voltage connections, ensuring the correct terminals have been used. Also, inspect the external wiring for shorts caused by staples or nails. Finally, ensure the dehumidistat is set to the desired setting.

Why are humidity levels too low with Lifebreath 700 POOL?
- R
  Richard RiveraSep 4, 2025
  Low humidity levels with your Lifebreath Air Cleaner can be attributed to a few factors. The blower speed of the HRV might be too high, so try decreasing it. Consider the lifestyle of the occupants, as humidity may need to be added through the use of humidifiers. Additionally, the HRV airflows may be improperly balanced, requiring a contractor to balance them.

What causes excess water in my Lifebreath Air Cleaner?
- M
  mariedavisSep 7, 2025
  Excess water in the bottom of your Lifebreath Air Cleaner can be caused by drain pans being plugged, so look for obstructions in the drain line. Another cause may be the improper connection of the HRV’s drain lines, so look for kinks in the drain line. The HRV not being level, obstructed drain lines, or the HRV heat exchange core not being properly installed can also be causes.

Why are my Lifebreath 700 POOL Air Cleaner ducts frosting?
- V
  vmoranSep 12, 2025
  If your Lifebreath Air Cleaner or its ducts are frosting up, it could be due to improperly balanced HRV airflows, which would require an HVAC contractor to balance the HRV. It can also be caused by a malfunction of the HRV defrost system. Note that minimal frost build-up is expected on cores before the unit initiates defrost cycle functions.
