OPERATING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SYSTEM VENTECH LG 150 PAGE 5
The LG 150 System VENTECH range of
compact ventilation units is suitable for
installation in air-conditioning systems
for controlled mechanical ventilation and
deaeration of spaces and dwellings with
purposes similar, for example, to seminar
rooms and small oces at an adjustable
air flow volume of up to 150 m³/h (LG 150
A) or approx. 200 m³/h for up to 160 m²
(LG 150 B with high air capacity).
Installation of a mechanical, controlled
domestic ventilation system provides
supply air and exhaust air ventilation for
the entire living area. Controlled air supply
with purified and filtered outdoor air is
provided in supply air areas. Odours and
damp ambient extract air are conducted
away in the extract air area.
The purpose of controlled mechanical
ventilation and deaeration of domestic
areas is to improve air quality, reduce
heating energy demand through use of a
highly ecient heat recovery system, and
to influence indoor air humidity.
The unit’s scope and designated use
is limited to use in ventilation and air
conditioning systems for the extraction of
used air and the supply of fresh, temper-
ature-controlled outdoor air at maximum
conveyed media temperatures of -15°C
to + 35°C. In addition, the air conveyed
must be free of aggressive vapours and
abrasive material. Any other use shall be
deemed contrary to designated use. The
manufacturer shall accept no responsibil-
ity for damages or consequential damag-
es arising from improper use.
Designated use also includes adherence
to our prescribed operating and installa-
tion manual.
This unit is available to the general public
and is intended for installation in residen-
tial or industrial buildings. The unit is used
for mechanical aeration and ventilation
of ambient air and, when combined with
an external heater battery, is also used to
reheat air.
This unit is not intended for use by
persons, including children, with limited
physical, sensory or mental capacities
or lacking experience and/or knowledge,
unless under supervision or instruction of
a person responsible for their safety.
The unit is not suitable for outdoor instal-
lation and may be installed in suitable
and temperature-controlled interior areas
only. The ventilation unit is not suitable
for drying new buildings. The compact
ventilation unit from the LG 150 System
VENTECH range is not a ready-to-use
product. It must not be put into operation
until it has been properly installed and
connected to the ventilation system. Only
qualified and instructed personnel may
work on and with the unit.
Personnel transporting,
installing or working on the
unit must have read and
understood the operating instructions,
in particular Section 4: “Safety”. The end
user must also be instructed on potential
hazards.

STIPULATIONS FOR OPERATION WITH
FIREPLACES
Due to heavy load and irregular operation,
extract air from any kitchen extractor
hoods that may be present must not
be integrated into the dwelling's air-
conditioning system.
Extract air from such extractor hoods
must be conducted separately to the
outdoors by means of an exhaust air pipe.
Exhaust air extractor hoods must be
operated via separate air pipes with
suitable air replenishment e.g. by
means of window ventilation or in air
recirculation mode.
If an extractor hood is operated without
separate introduction of supply air,
air volume in the dwelling becomes
unbalanced. Proper functioning of the
domestic air-conditioning system cannot
be guaranteed in such instances (odour
carryover etc.)
Another option is to operate the extractor
hood in recirculation mode.
The LG 150 System VENTECH compact
ventilation unit range has been developed
and manufactured for controlled mechan-
ical ventilation and deaeration of spaces
with purposes similar, for example, to
seminar rooms and small oces.
For proper operation of the central air
conditioning systems, it must be possible
to close any ducts for combustion air and
flue gas systems of fireplaces drawing in
room air.
Any other use shall be deemed improper
use and may result in personal injury or
damage to the LG 150 System VENTECH
compact ventilation unit range, for which
the manufacturer cannot be held liable.
The manufacturer accepts no responsibility
for any damages due to:
• Failure to observe the safety, operating
and maintenance instructions provided
in this operating and installation manual.
• Installation of spare parts that have
not been supplied by the manufacturer,
whereby the responsibility for use of
such spare parts lies wholly with the
system's constructor/installer.
• Normal wear and tear.
LIABILITY
STIPULATIONS FOR OPERATION WITH
EXTRACTOR HOODS
Changes reserved
Local requirements in terms of standards,
laws and directives, must be taken into
account .
The central air conditioners with heat
recovery should not be installed in
comparably sized rooms, apartments
or facilities with room air dependent
heating apparatus unless:
• safety systems are in place to prevent
simultaneous operation of room air
dependent heating apparatus and units
extracting air, or
• special safety systems will monitor
waste gas extraction of a heating
apparatus dependent on room air.
Heating apparatus running on liquid or
gaseous fuels and drawing in room air,
or air conditioning systems, must switch
o should a safety system trigger. The
air conditioning system must switch o
should the safety system trigger in case
of solid fuel heating apparatus drawing
in room air.
Central air conditioning equipment for
controlled ventilation and extraction of air
in an apartment or similar facility shall
not be installed if the facility has room air
dependent heating apparatus connected
to waste gas units with multiple infeeds.
For normal operation of central air
conditioning systems, it must be possible
to close any ducts for combustion air
or waste gas systems from heating
apparatus dependent on room air. Shut-
o systems for waste gas from solid
fuel heating apparatus must be manual.
The position of the operating lever must
indicate the status of the shut-o device.
This is deemed complied with if a shut-o
system is used to block soot (soot shut-
o).
Fire protection requirements
The regional regulatory provisions,
especially the fire protection regulations
for air conditioning of buildings,
as amended, must be taken into
consideration when installing the air
conditioning system in accordance with
the instructions for fire protection.

ensure that the unit is inspected and
serviced at regular intervals. Ask your
supplier about approved specialised com-
panies/installers in your area.
Spare parts
Attachment or installation of additional
parts and components is not permitted.
All modifications to the LG 150 System
VENTECH range of compact ventilation
units are prohibited. Only original spare
parts may be used.
Filter changing:
If a filter needs to be changed for the
LG 150 System VENTECH compact ventila-
tion unit range, the part of the unit's cov-
ering that can only be opened with tools
must not be opened. The ventilation unit's
fans and electrical system are positioned
behind this screwed covering.
Never operate the ventilation unit without
an air filter. Air filters must be checked
regularly for dirt and damage and cleaned
or replaced if necessary. The air filters
must be changed at least every
six months or when the “Change Filter”
message appears on the control unit. Use
original replacement filters only. If the
plant is not used in summer, the air filters
must, for hygienic reasons, be replaced
prior to restarting.
