Drain Connection

During defrost cycle the HRV unit may produce some condensation and the water should flow into a nearby drain.

The HRV cabinet has pre-punched holes(two on side and one on the door) for the drain, in order to keep the drain pan
intact,

hand tighten the plastic drain spout to the unit using the gasket and nuts.

Cut two sections of ½" drain pipe and connect the other ends to the drain spout then connect to “T” connector. Connect a
drain line and create a

P-trap to prevent the unit from unpleasant odours from drain source. Tape or fasten base to avoid

any bends.

The HRV and all condensate lines must be installed in a space where the temperature

is maintained above the freezing point or freeze protection must be provided.

CAUTION

!

Note:
For Horizontal installation,

cut one ½’’ drain pipe and connect one end to the drain spout and the other
end to the drain line. Don't forget to create a P-trap as shown above.
