2 Technical information
2.1 General definition
The IDEO 275 Ecowatt provides optimum ventilation for a room with a minimum loss of energy. It
extracts air from spaces such as (Bathroom/s WC kitchen and washroom/s or shower room/s
and
extracts
air
from
spaces
such
as
(Bathroom/s
,
WC
,
kitchen
and
washroom/s
or
shower
room/s
,
and
supplies fresh air into the main rooms (Living rooms, bedroom/s, office, …).
The fresh and extracted airflows are separated and filtered. Only the energy from the extracted air is
transferred to the new fresh air introduced. Thanks to IDEO 275 Ecowatt ’s high efficiency heat
exchanger, performance can reach up to 95 %.
Condensation may occur at the moment of exchange, with the introduction of fresh air. This is
recovered in a container for condensate, which should be connected to a waste water drain.

.2.3 Controlling the IDEO 275 Ecowatt
The IDEO 275 Ecowatt can be controlled from:
•A button that enables the boost flow for the kitchen to be timed in ½-hour steps.
Service life with normal usage (average 3 times a day) is estimated to be about 4 and a half years. For each
operation, a red signal will light up for a few seconds to indicate battery life.
The button uses one CR2032 type battery.
•
The programming module is located on the front of the machine This remote control can also be located on a wall
•

or placed on table or other furniture.
The remote control module is in permanent communication with the IDEO central unit . Service life with normal use
(consultation by the user 5 times a day on average) is estimated at about 4 years. Battery status can be viewed
directly on the screen (Reference 10). The module uses two AA – 1.5 V – LR6 batteries.
