Lifebreath RNC series User Manual

Key Features
• The Dehumidistat measures the indoor humidity level and will
initiate high speed ventilation when the moisture level in the
home exceeds the set point on the control.
• Once the humidity in the house is reduced, the HRV will revert
back to its previous setting.
• The Dehumidistat should be set to OFF for all season except the
heating season.
• Connect to 3 wire 20 gauge low voltage wire.
Humidity Control
Your HRV will produce a dehumidifying effect when outdoor
humidity levels are lower than indoor humidity levels. Never use
the dehumidistat feature when outdoor temperatures are above 59
F (15 C).
Note: The indoor humidity level is measured at the control.
Setting the Dehumidistat
Press and release the DEHUMIDISTAT button until the
DEHUMIDISTAT LIGHT is at the desired setting. After 5
seconds the dehumidistat light will either flash or be on
continuous.
A flashing light indicates the humidity level is higher than the
setting and the unit is operating on high speed ventilation. A
continuous light indicates the humidity level is lower than the
setting. Refer to the unit's Operation & Installation Manual for
instructions on how the Dehumidistat works.
Note - Only 1 dehumidistat should be active on a system.
