TJERNLUND RV2 User manual

DESCRIPTION
Dilute radon concentrations in your home easily and affordably. The RV2 Radon Ventilation Fan exhausts radon and other
harmful soil gases and allows fresh outdoor air to replace them. At 220 CFM the RV2 ventilates a 20’x40’x3’ crawl space
over 5 times per hour while using only 36 watts. Simply mount the unit against a vent opening with the included hardware
and plug it in. For even greater results multiple units can be installed. Run it continously or with a plug-in timer. It also helps
reduce crawl space humidity.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Each RV2 is electrically factory line tested before shipment. After opening carton, inspect thoroughly for shipment damage.
Fan should rotate freely and all electrical wires and connections should be secured. If any damage is found, notify freight
carrier and your distributor immediately and file a concealed damage claim.
RECOMMENDED VENTILATION RATE
The RV2 most effectively reduces radon levels when operating continuously. The RV2 can be operated with a plug-in wall
timer available at most hardware stores or home centers if intermittent operation is desired.
INSTALLATION
The RV2 must be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with these instructions and all local codes or in their
absence in accordance with the latest editions of the International Residential Code and International Electrical Code.
Improper installation can create a hazardous condition such as fire, electric shock or personal injury.
To reduce these risks significantly, use this unit only in the manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions,
contact Tjernlund Products. Always disconnect the RV2 from its power source before installation and servicing.
CAUTION: For general ventilation use only. Do not use to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control device.
