irrespective of where they are made.
SAFETY INFORMATION

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ECO 360 R is a ventilation system for comfort
ventilation of homes.
The unit is equipped with a high-efficiency rotary heat
exchanger which recovers both heat and moisture as
needed – and thus ensures low energy costs and an optimal
indoor climate with reduced risk of the home drying out in
winter.
Due to the properties of the rotary exchanger technology,
no condensation is discharged from the system, which
means condensate drainage is not necessary. Similarly, a
balanced air volume can be maintained during defrosting of
the rotary exchanger, as the speed of the rotor is fully
modulating and reduced to a level necessary for efficient
defrosting. During defrosting, an integrated modulating
electric reheater ensures that the supply air temperature is
maintained at an appropriate level.
The unit can be supplied with integrated flow sensors,
ensuring easy commissioning and a constant air volume in
all conditions (flow sensors are accessories and ordered
separately).
The ECO 360 R is designed for indoor installation, but – if
specific country requirements allow – it can also be used
outside the building envelope in areas protected from wind
and weather.
NOTE
When installing outside the building envelope, condensa-
tion may occur on the outside of the system under certain
conditions. To avoid condensation, it is recommended
removing the steel front so that hot, moist air cannot build
up under the front lid.

INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT!
The unit may only be used in connection with an electrical
installation executed properly with grounding. It must also
be ensured that the earth connection of the electrical
installation is matched to the earth plug of the unit.
These instructions must be followed. If the installation is
not executed in accordance with these instructions, KVM-
Genvex cannot be held liable for any further damage that is
unrelated to the Genvex unit.
KVM-Genvex A/S always recommends careful planning of
the installation space for your Genvex product in relation to
the location of living spaces. As this is a technical product
that contains fans and/or a heat pump, in rare cases, and in
combination with inappropriate installation conditions, it
may cause unsatisfactory noise or vibration nuisance. As a
general rule, it is always recommended installing the
technical system so that it is not located in the immediate
vicinity of a bedroom. Furthermore, when securing the
Genvex unit to the building structure, it is recommended
attaching it to a heavy structural component such as
concrete. It should also be ensured that no sound or vibra-
tions can be transmitted through materials in contact with
the technical system. If there is a risk of propagation of
noise and vibrations, further installation of vibration-
damping material and sound-damping of installation rooms
are recommended.
Wall mounting (vertical connections)
Before starting the installation of the ventilation unit
Make sure that the wall used to hold the ventilation unit is
built in such a way that it is able to support the weight of
the unit. In addition, the wall must be straight and plumb.
1. Before attaching the mounting bracket to the wall,
ensure that the bracket is in the correct position and
that the necessary space and service conditions are
available. Place the mounting bracket level and mark the
positions of all 4 screw holes.
2. Attach the bracket to the wall using screws in all 4
mounting holes.
3. Mount the ventilation unit by hanging it on the mounting
bracket. The recess on the back of the unit is intended
for this.
Once the ventilation unit has been properly attached to the
mounting bracket, lock the unit in place by inserting the
locking screw into the locking hole. The supplied safety
screws must be fully tightened!

Floor mounting (vertical connections)
1. The 4 supplied adjusting legs are screwed into the
threaded holes in the base of the unit.
2. The adjusting legs can be adjusted from 27-35 mm to
level the unit.
Horizontal mounting of the unit
(horizontal connections)
Note – for this installation method, the filter on the right
side must be attached to the filter frame (e.g. using elastic
straps as shown in the picture below) so that the filter is
held in place and ensures 100% filtration.
Please note that this type of installation of the unit will
require particular focus on servicing and accessibility.
1. The unit is mounted on its back on a vibration-damping
surface – with service access from above as shown in

Duct connection
At duct connectors, a yellow sticker has been affixed
indicating which ventilation ducts are to be connected to
the various connectors.
Note that the ECO 360 R is available in a right-hand version
(characterised by the reheater being located in the supply
air to the right of the unit) and a left-hand version (charac-
terised by the reheater being located in the supply air to
the left of the unit).
It is possible to convert a right-hand unit into a left-hand
unit and vice versa by relocating the humidity sensor +
exhaust sensor and post-heating surface. For more details
on conversion, contact your Genvex sales representative.

To start the duct installation, it is recommended using 4 x
Ø160 mm nipple connectors with double sealing lips.
Alternatively, a Ø200 mm spiro pipe can be used, which is
connected directly to the outside of the ECO 360 R
connector.

10
Duct system
It is recommended that the duct system should be made of
spiral-folded pipes assembled with fittings with rubber ring
seals so that you get a tight and durable duct system. To
achieve a satisfactorily low noise level from the unit, sound
locks must always be installed on the supply air and ex-
haust air duct system between the unit and the first supply
air and exhaust air fittings.
It is recommended that the air flows in the ducts should be
dimensioned at a sufficiently low level to ensure that noise
from the supply air and exhaust air fittings does not occur.
When positioning outdoor air and exhaust air hoods/
gratings, it must be ensured that the two air flows do not
short-circuit, thereby preventing the exhaust air from being
sucked in again. It is recommended that grates should be
placed on the north or east side of the house to achieve
optimal comfort in homes/flats.
It is recommended that the air intake should be located on
the north or east side of the house to achieve maximum
comfort and minimal impact from the sun’s heat.
Recommended minimum horizontal distance between air
intake and exhaust: 3 metres.
Recommended minimum vertical distance between air
intake and exhaust: 1 metre.
In order to connect ordinary galvanised steel ducts to the
ECO 360 R ventilation unit, you must first install 4 nipple
connectors in the unit’s Ø160 mm openings (double sealing
lips). Alternatively, Ø200 mm galvanised steel ducts should
be placed over the EPP connectors.
The unit is now ready for direct connection of ductwork on
the nipple connector. It is recommended installing galva-
nised angle brackets to fasten the nipple connector to the
galvanised housing using self-tapping steel screws.
