2. GENERAL INFORMATION
2.1. INTRODUCTION
ORKA ensures optimal ventilation of the house with maximum energy recovery. Stale air is extracted from the “wet”
rooms (bathrooms, toilets, laundry rooms, etc.) and fresh air is supplied into the main “habitable” rooms (living
room, bedrooms,studys,...).
Both airflows are filtered before forwarding to the heat recovery unit, where warmth from the stale, outgoing air is
transferred to the cooler incoming airflow. The unit performance can reach:
• HR: 92%
• ST:70%
6
In this exchange, water is generated due to condensation forming as the warm outgoing air rapidly cools. It is essen-
tial that this water is properly drained away from the unit via the supplied condensate drain pipe.
ORKA has a 100% bypass that allows fresh air from outside to be introduced directly, without receiving the heat ener-
gy from the extraction air, generating free cooling. It is a manual activation.
2.2. DESCRIPTION
• HR and ST: Extraction: 4 spigots d.80 +spigot d.125.
• HR D150 and STD150: extraction: 1 spigot d.150 and 1 spigot d.125.
• The rest of connections: 3 x d.125 (adapter 125/150-160 supplied for each spigot).

New fresh air inlet:
This spigot is to connect the supply duct of fresh air from outside. Install the fresh air intake (wall or
roof) a sufficient distance from any area of high pollution (trees, exhaust fumes, road, etc). To avoid
short-circuiting, the terminal should also be positioned a minimum of 1.5m from the discharge air
outlet.
This duct must be sealed and insulated to prevent condensation on the outside
and inside.
Supply fresh air into the building:
Connected to the air intake duct in the property. To avoid thermal losses, it is recommended to use
insulated ducts for the warmed air.
Extract air from the building:
Connected to the extract duct from the property. To avoid thermal losses and optimise the performan-
ce of the installation, it is recommended to use insulated ducts for the warm air.
7
Discharge of extract air:
Connected to the discharge duct to the outside.
This duct must be well sealed and thermally insulated to avoid condensation
both on the inside and outside.
By-pass:
The 100% by-pass system of the ORKA allows the introduction of cooler fresh air (during the evenings
and in the night) avoiding the heat exchanger and thus without it being tempered by the outgoing
warm air which has accumulated in the house during the day.
Alarm filter change:
the unit has a timer “12 months TIMER” that alerts the user when to change the filters.

The unit has a timer “12 months TIMER S&P” that alerts the user when to change the filters.
It is a movable device and must be located where the user can view the alarm status.
Pilot
Button
The alarm is timed to activate at 12 months. Once this time has elapsed, the pilot will light up every 10 seconds during
the first 4 days. Subsequently, the flashing will be every 30 seconds for the next 9 days.
When the filters have been changed, the alarm must be reactivated by pressing the button for 5 seconds.
To check the remaining time until the end of the timing, press the button for 3 seconds and the pilot light will illumi-
nate a number of times to the number of months remaining to reach 12 months.
To confirm that the battery has sufficient charge, press the button (<1 second) and the pilot light will illuminate once.
If not, the battery should be replaced with a new one. The remaining time for the alarm activation is saved.
The battery life for normal use is approximately 3 years.
The battery is CR2032 type.
