DISCHARGE

ERV-522 and 582

Position the unit roof
opening such that the
supply discharge and
exhaust inlet of the
unit will line up with
the corresponding
ductwork. Be sure
to allow for the
recommended service
clearances when
positioning opening
(see Service Clearances). Do not face the outdoor air
intake of the unit into prevailing wind and keep the
intake away from any other exhaust fans. Likewise,
position the exhaust discharge opening away from
outdoor air intakes of any other equipment.

When cutting only duct openings, cut opening 1 inch
(25mm)
larger than duct size to allow clearance for
installation. Area enclosed by roof curb must comply
with clearance to combustible materials. If the roof is
constructed of combustible materials, area within the
roof curb must be ventilated, left open, or covered
with non-combustible material which has an “R”
value of at least 5. If area within curb is open, higher
radiated sound levels may result.

Where the supply or warm air duct passes thru a
combustible roof, a clearance of one inch must be
maintained between the outside edges of the duct
and combustible material in accordance with NFPA
Standard 90A.
