2.2 Condensate Drain Installation
Unit comes complete with external condensate drain pipe of 15 mm
diameter positioned 20 mm up from the base and 80mm back from the
supply/exhaust connection face.
Use conventional plumbing connections to link up with U-trap. If using
a U-trap please ensure the U-trap has been filled to a suitable level of
water to avoid any air locks.
If the condensation pipe is fitted in an unheated space the pipe should
be in insulated to prevent freezing.
For domestic waste pipes, the typical 1:40 (around 1.5°) is
recommended. If using a dry trap various suppliers quote a minimum
of 10° for a pipe run in line with the unit. Ensure the cooler has its own
trap separate to the MVHR.
3.0 DUCTING
Before commencing ducting installation reference should be made
to building regulations document “Domestic ventilation compliance
guide”. This document supports ADF2010 and details installation,
testing and commissioning of all ventilation systems.
It is recommended that rigid ducting must be used it all times. Fresh-air
Intake and stale air Exhaust ducts will carry cold air in winter. Supply
air duct will carry cold air when Cooling Module is operating. Therefore
Intake, Exhaust and supply ducts will be at risk of condensation forming
on external surfaces and should all be insulated. Supply air duct only
needs insulating after the cooling module.
Any duct component including ancillaries such as carbon filters must
be insulated if they are carrying colder air produced by the cooling
module. Flexible connections should be avoided. Nuaire Ductmaster
thermal ducting should be used on Intake, Exhaust and Supply duct
runs.
Ducting must be installed in such a way that resistance to airflow is
minimised. Bends should be kept to a minimum.
A minimum distance of 300mm between the appliance and any bends
in ductwork is recommended. 220 x 90mm rectangular ducting should
be used.
Ducting joints must be sealed with silicone type sealant and needs
to be taped. Ducting shall be adequately and reliably fixed to the
appliance with screws to prevent access to live parts.

4.0 SUPPLY TEMPERATURES
Supply air temperature is critical to ensure good cooling distribution
and to avoid condensation forming on supply terminals. MVHR
duty in cooling mode must be sufficient to avoid “Over-cooling”. If
supplying to habitable rooms through Linear Slot Diffusers 12⁰C is the
recommended minimum supply air temperature. If supply to habitable
rooms is by air valve then 14⁰C is the recommended minimum supply
air temperature.
5.0 CONTROLS / DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
•MVHR will run continuously at Background/Whole dwelling duty
(Speed 1) unless it receives a 230v signal to Switched-Live input
connections SL1 or SL2.
•MVHR will be enabled to minimum-high-rate/Boost (Speed 2)
when it receives a 230v switched live from Kitchen boost switch /
Bathroom lighting circuit / PIR Detector / Remote humidistat, etc.
•Cooling module will be enabled to run and MVHR enabled to
speed 3 by a 230v Switched live from wall mounted thermostat
(Supplied by Nuaire). The Wall mounted thermostat will enable
the cooling module to run and MVHR to speed 3 when the living
room temperature reaches 23°C (when the CM-THERM-CONTROL
is set to ECO).
•N.B. The wall mounted thermostat is factory pre-set to enable the
Cooling module to run and the MVHR to speed 3 at 23⁰C. It may
be necessary to interlock this with the heating system to prevent
the cooling system from running when the heating is ON.
•If supplied with a Summer/Winter MVHR, it will be supplied with
a Summer/Winter switch. When set to summer mode the MVHR
will target a temperature under 21⁰C within the apartment.
•Summer mode can be selected year round to attempt to mitigate
overheating caused by solar gains but must be selected when
cooling is expected to run (summer months).
•Winter mode ensures the MVHR will recover heat at all times.

8.0 MAINTENANCE
Isolate before commencing work, make sure that the unit, switched
live and Nuaire control are electrically isolated from the mains
supply and switched live supply.
It is important that maintenance checks are recorded and that the
schedule is always adhered to, in all cases, the previous report should
be referred to.
8.1 Access
The main central panel allows access to controls and electrical
connections. Lower panels either side allows access to front face of
cooling coil, heat rejection coil or refrigerant high and low temperature
test points.
Access may not be possible if the minimum access zone of 920 x
300 mm has not been provided.
8.2 Annual Maintenance - Evaporator and Condenser
•Inspect all heat exchangers for signs of damage or dirt. Loose dirt
may be removed by using a soft brush, taking care not to brush
the dirt into the coil, blocking the fins. Damaged fins should be
combed out using a comb.
•If the coil has become dirty, review the frequency of the filter
checks.
•If the coil is excessively dirty, use a proprietary cleaning agent, e.g.
HYDRO-COIL or MULTISOLVE.
•Inspect the condensate drain tray and clean as required.
•Check all electrical connections for tightness.
•Switch on the power to the unit. Check the operation of the
mechanical cooling system.
•While the mechanical cooling system is operating check the
system pressures, these should typically be:-
Suction pressure (low): 4.48 bar(65 psi) to 5.51bar(80psi)
Discharge pressure (high):16.54 bar(240psi) to 22.06 bar(320psi)
•Check that all the panels are in place and that the unit is in a clean
condition.
8.3 Repair and Replacement
If, in the event of a failure, a component requires replacing, the
power to the unit must be securely isolated.
8.3.1 Refrigeration Circuit Components
** WARNING **
All repair and replacement work on refrigeration components must
be carried out by a fully qualified refrigeration engineer, trained
in maintenance and refrigeration recovery, and with a sound
knowledge of all relevant safety regulations pertaining to the job.
** NOTE **
A refrigerant reclaim rig must always be available on site when
changing any refrigeration components, to remove all or part of
the refrigerant charge. The liquid line filter drier must be renewed
when a component is replaced.
All refrigerant in the unit must be reclaimed and disposed of safely.
8.3.2 Compressor
In the event of a compressor failure, a sample of oil should be removed
from the compressor by draining through the discharge port. This
sample should be tested, using a proprietary acid test kit, to determine
if the failure has resulted in a burn out. If the oil is clean, a new
compressor can be fitted immediately. In the event of a burn out the
system will need cleaning. In the absence of any approved flushing
agents, a burn out filter must be fitted in the suction line and an
oversized filter in the liquid line.
Ensure that the suction line filter is fitted with an appropriate acid
binding core.
Once the compressor has been replaced, the whole system must be
fully evacuated and the correct refrigerant charge measured in.
The suction line filter should be checked and the core replaced as
necessary until the system is clean, and then removed. The liquid line
filter should be replaced with one of the correct size when the system
is clear.
8.3.3 Pressure Switches
In the event of a pressure switch failure, it is not necessary to empty the
refrigeration circuit. Each pressure switch is connected to a Schrader
type self-sealing service valve, however, a small amount of liquid
refrigerant may escape when disconnecting the flare nut, and gloves
should be worn to protect the hands.
