Reverse Installation of the HRV ............................24-25
Never install an HRVin a situation where its
normal operation, lack of operation or partial
failure may result in the backdrafting or
improper functioning of vented combustion
equipment!
It is always important to assess howthe
operation of any HRV may interact with vented
combustion equipment (ie. GasFurnaces, Oil
Furnaces, Wood Stoves, etc.).
Do not apply electrical power to the unit
until installation has been fully completed
(including low voltage control wiring).
CAUTION
CAUTION
Pool room air/surfaces MUST have a heating
appliance which does NOT include the pool
water as its source. The pool room and water
MUST be continuously operated at its original
design as any deviation from this could
greatly effect the operation of the unit.
The pool unit MUST be fully commissioned
after installation which includes confirming
proper operation of the control, normal
operation of the unit and drainage through the
pans without unintentional leakage.

Introduction
The Recovery Core
High indoor humidity levels pose two threats to your
pool room environment: health (IAQ) and building
degradation.
Humidity control is provided by an adjustable
dehumidistat that is mounted in the pool room.
The dehumidistat (included with the pool HRV)
would be set to an acceptable humidity level (for
example, in a range of 40% to 50% R.H.).
Ventilation (the exhaust of humid indoor air and
introduction of the dryer outdoor air) occurs when
the adjustable HRV dehumidistat exceeds the set
point.
When the humidity level of the pool room falls below
the dehumidistat setpoint, the pool room air is
recirculated by the HRV (no outside air will enter the
system). Outside air is prevented from entering the
HRV during recirculation by the supply damper closing
off. The exhaust fan to the outside is shut off during
this recirculation mode. Outside air does not enter the
system again until the pool room humidity exceeds the
setpoint of the dehumidistat.
HRV - Aluminum Core
A Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) is designed to
provide fresh air into a building while exhausting an
equal amount of stale air. During the winter months,
the incoming cold fresh air is warmed by utilizing the
heat recovered from the stale air before it is
exhausted to the outdoors. During summer months
when the indoor space is air conditioned, the Heat
Recovery Ventilator will help in cooling the incoming
fresh air with the stale air that is being exhausted.
