HRV200PLUS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
Blockage of weather hoods may cause a pressure imbalance within the house. Severe blockage will cause intermittent
operation of the Fresh Air Fireplace!
M. MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Proper maintenance is critical to the proper operation of the HRV200PLUS. The following schedule should be followed:
1. Monthly Maintenance - Inspect Exterior Hoods
Make sure exhaust and fresh air supply hoods are not blocked or restricted by leaves, grass, or snow. In winter, it is especially
important to make sure snow is not blocking the hoods or that frost has not built up on the wire mesh (bird screen).
2. Quarterly Maintenance
a. Clean Air Filters
The standard filters equipped with your HRV200PLUS are removable and washable.
1) Open the access door.
2) Carefully grip the end of the core and pull evenly outward until the core slides out one or two inches.
3) Remove the filter clips.
4) Once clips are removed, filters can be taken off the core and rinsed with water or a combination of mild soap and water.
Do not clean in the dishwasher.
5) To reassemble, place the clean filters (wet or dry) back into their positions against the core and return the clips to their
original position.
6) Slide the core back into its original position.
b. Check and Clean Drain Lines
3. Semi Annual Maintenance - Clean Core
a. Open the access door.
b. Carefully grip the ends of the core and pull evenly outward until core slides out. Core may be snug, but will slide out of the
channel.
c. Remove the filter clips and filters. Rinse filters with warm soapy water.
d. Wash the core in warm soapy water (do not use the dishwasher).
Note: Core installation label is on the outer end
of the core.
e. Install the clean core as follows:
1) Locate the filters on the core to cover the open surface and replace the filter clips.
2) Mount the bottom flange of the core guide into the H channel approximately 1/4” (6mm).
3) Mount the left or right flange of the core guide into the H channel approximately 1/4” (6mm) followed by the other side.
4) Mount the top flange of the core guide into the H channel approximately 1/4” (6mm).
5) With all four corners in place and the core straight and even, push firmly in the center of the core until the core stops on
the back of the cabinet.
Note: Core will appear to stick out from the cabinet
approximately 1/8” (3mm). This is designed this way so
the access door will fit tight against the core.
