2 The heating installation – the
heart of the house

Ventilation heat exchanger function
A ventilation heat exchanger makes use of the heat in the building’s
ventilation air to heat up the incoming outdoor air. The outgoing ventilation
air (1) retrieves free heating energy from the home and transports it to
the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger (2) transfers the heat from the
indoor air to the incoming outdoor air.
Ventilation air
The hot air is transferred from the rooms to the heat exchanger via the
building's ventilation system using a fan.
A
In the ventilation heat exchanger the air releases heat energy and the air's
temperature drops significantly. The cold air is then blown out of the house.
B
Outdoor air
The outdoor air is transferred to the ventilation heat exchanger via the house's
ventilation system.
C
In the ventilation heat exchanger the air releases the heating energy and the
temperature is raised.
D
A fan blows the heated air into those rooms that have supply air inlets.
E
The temperatures are only examples and may vary between different installations and
time of year.

Maintenance of GV-HR 130
REGULAR CHECKS
Your ventilation heat exchanger requires minimal maintenance after
commissioning. On the other hand, it is recommended that you check
your installation regularly.
If something unusual occurs, messages about the malfunction appear
in the display in the form of various alarm texts.
NOTE
Always switch off the power and wait until the fans have
stopped before opening GV-HR 130.
Cleaning the ventilation devices
The building’s ventilation devices should be
cleaned regularly with, for example, a small
brush to maintain the correct ventilation.
The device settings must not be changed.
NOTE
If you take down more than one
ventilation device for cleaning, do not
mix them up.
Cleaning the air filter
The supply air filter in GV-HR 130 is of a type that should not be cleaned,
but has to be replaced instead.
The exhaust air filter in GV-HR 130 should be cleaned regularly; how often
depends on the amount of dust in the ventilation air, among other things.
Test until you find out what is most suitable for your installation.
Caution
The efficiency of the installation can be reduced by a dirty air
filter.
NIBE GV-HR 130Chapter 2 | The heating installation – the heart of the house18

You will receive a reminder about filter cleaning in the display. The default
setting for the reminder is every three months, however, if the power
to GV-HR 130 is interrupted the countdown begins again.
1. Switch off the ventilation heat exchanger.
2. Release the air filters by turning the knobs a quarter of a turn.
3. Remove the covers and withdraw the air filters.
4. Remove the exhaust air filter and shake it clean.
5. Check the condition of the filters.
6. Carry out assembly in reverse order.
7. Start GV-HR 130.
8. Press and hold the Filter button until the filter symbol resets.
Even if the filters appear to be clean, dirt collects in them and this affects
the efficiency of the filters. For this reason, replace them after approx.
1 years. New filters can be ordered via the installer.
Supply air filter: F7 = Pollen filter (Fine filter, class F7)
Exhaust air filter: G4 = Standard filter (Coarse filter, class G4)
NOTE
Use of a vacuum cleaner or compressed air on the filter is not
recommended, as this diminishes the degree of filtration.
Water or other liquids must not be used for cleaning.

Check the water lock for condensation water
The water seal must be checked at least once a year, ideally in the au-
tumn.
The water seal is located outside GV-HR 130. Contact your installer if
you are unsure of where to find it.
No condensation water is generated in the ventilation heat exchanger
during the warmer periods of the year and the water seal will dry out.
During the colder parts of the year, GV-HR 130 can produce several litres
of condensation water every day. If the condensation outlet is not
working, this may cause water damage inside the home.
The water seal must not dry out during this part of the year because air
will be sucked into the ventilation heat exchanger due to the negative
pressure in the unit, which will then prevent the condensation water
from running off.
1. Check that the condensation drain and the water seal are not clogged
with dirt.
2. Pour approx. one litre of water into the water seal.
3. Check that the water runs through unobstructed.
